Also, if you are interested in trying the following, please contact me and I will organize it. Here is my idea.

One of the biggest issues has always been retaining new users. Although the game is not complicated, there are a lot of features, and new users may get overwhelmed, and not put the effort in to get over the hump to really enjoy the game and stick with it. What do you guys think about a group of us getting organized and assigning ourselves as a mentor to every new user that comes along.

Here's how it could work. Let's say there are 20 new users that sign up over the course of a month, and there are 10 of us that volunteer. We could assign 2 new players to each coach, and all we would have to do is to reach out to the new user by sitemail offering our assistance. If they don't respond, that's all we would do. If they do respond, we help them, and they are much more likely to have a successful first season and recruiting experience, and to stick with the game.

It would be really nice if HD would provide us with a list of people as they sign up so we could reach out to them right away, and help them through the very early stages.

This combined with a good manual would potentially increase retention dramatically.

I'll try to be close to as helpful as Joe Pesci in "My Cousin Vinny"... in over his head, never won a case, unpredictable, falls asleep in court, and at no cost.... hey, i'll even wear a ridiculous tuxedo on occasion... but i'll be better than that Public Defender!

rogelio - I'll chip in. I spend way too much time on this site, but my main focus in the Beta has been figuring out how to scout with minimal time spent.

Everyone's going to have an AP learning curve the first time this is live in a Wooden.
