BuzzerBeater Forums

i am posting this off the new site, looking good guys. might take a bit of getting used to but hey i all for a change.
the only thing i dont like about it is the bit at the top, where the drop down menu is, you should be able to have a choice if you want to turn this off or leave it open like with the shortcut menu on the current site where you are able to hide it.

other than that well done.

Love the new site! good initiative!

It should be possible to switch off the avatars in the forums, even though they're cute, but they slow the forum pages down and may also turn NSFW. I've already seen avatar videos - this kind of stuff leads in the wrong direction, I know people who haven't stayed in Buzzerbeater because of too heavy visuals already in the old version (weird purists).

The avatars are the team logo found on the team page for Supporters.

These are strictly monitored.

How does this work, he was bought, then drafted?

Overall, I like alot of the changes, it will take time to relearn how to get places. Change isn't bad, just takes time to get used to.

Some thoughts I had:

First, I don't like how the Private League links to the Overview. I think instead it should link to your current, or most recent PL since for the most part that is the league you are gonna care about, would get rid of one more click you have to make right now.

Second, I always found the toolbar to be a bit repetitive with the long list, but I actually think the tool bar works alot better with the short list, especially if you make it customizable. So unless you are really against it, I'd say bring that back.

Third, a suggestion about the previewing players in current transfers section. Allow some sort of limited filter for what type of players to show up here. Possibly one or two skills over a certain mark, or certain age.

Fourth, in the drop down list on the team page, your stats are called season stats, but on the main page it is called team stats. Just think they should match since they link you to the same place.

Fifth, I think you might be better replacing the scrimmage section with a schedule section on the Manage My Team page, you only scrimmage once a week while you play a game 2+ times a week.(would make it easier to get to schedule page too)

He was one of the players that the BBs released into the market very early on (I think Season 1) as there were a dearth of players on the TL at the time.

Probably explains the balky line here.

BTW, Dirk still rulz

It's currently just based upon how much money you have in the bank - we look for a player in your price range whose auction ends soon. There are a lot of further things we've considered with this box, and we're open to suggestions.

Please make this toggle-able with a preference.

Where are the "Notable player events" found?

I find the combination of a "menu" and random things I mouse over that give more options to choose from very cognitively jarring and confusing. If there is going to be a mouse over drop down, put it on every page and in the same place.

I'm guessing the flag finder is not available until we can schedule scrimmages again.

Forum signatures - ugh. ugh. This absolutely must be able to be turned off in a preference.

I'll also echo "what the point of rating posts?"

I really like the new overview page.

Please can we add a fifth and/or sixth restriction to the transfer market search?

How about totaling and separating each type of game in the player history?

I like the new features, but I DONT like the new page at all.....I hope it will never be implemented....sory guys...

I like the new site guys. The ranking and the forum avatars are great ideas! I also like how I can see the rankings of all the players in the league.

Only thing that is missing is being able to see the ranking of all the teams in the country. Would be way easier to work out who's ahead of you :P
