Not super easy but that's mostly because it's huge.

Little bit, just required following instructions.

I used the written explanation of what the statistics did, and it helped (I hope).

Get a better understanding of how it all works.
6) Give us one suggestion to make this site easier on new members.
Integrate the player calculator into the site as a flexible form script page that lets players directly submit characters through that page as a new topic.

2) Is the the site easy to navigate as a newcomer?

Fairly easy enough, I am still just reading through everything totally not aware of it all.

Mostly spent my time just deciding what position to play, and how I could set myself apart from all the other goddam two way forward centers that are in this upcoming draft.

Yeah I watched the video, but got distracted and turned it off, reading the posts was more helpful.

Megathread on /r/hockey!

2) Is the the site easy to navigate as a newcomer?
Once I start clicking around it gets easier. considering how deep the site is it's about as easy as it could be!

3) Did you have any trouble creating your player?
Nope! the video tutorial made it very easy. all of the first TP update threads I could find were locked though, so I'm out a point :(

4) Did you use the video/written tutorial when creating your player? If yes, did it help?
Video tutorial, yup!

5) What would you like to do while waiting for the SMJHL Draft?(Example: Prospect Tournament)
prospect tournaments! training camps, stuff like that, get as much real feel as possible!

Make it easier to find the update and player pages, or maybe I'm just dumb


- twils - 07-22-2016

1) How did you find us?
Through a post on reddit in /r/hockey

2) Is the the site easy to navigate as a newcomer?
The site took a few hours to figure out. It was very confusing at first, but I think I can now fully understand it after a couple hours.

3) Did you have any trouble creating your player?
Creating my player was easy. It took a little while to figure out how the training system works.

4) Did you use the video/written tutorial when creating your player? If yes, did it help?
I used the written tutorial to help me. It was very helpful. I would not have been able to get the hang of it without the tutorial.

5) What would you like to do while waiting for the SMJHL Draft?(Example: Prospect Tournament)
Some sort of tournament to get a sense of how the games and teams work before starting the season would be enjoyable.

6) Give us one suggestion to make this site easier on new members.
There are a bunch of guides for newbies, which causes some extra confusion. The older ones sometimes have different information than the new ones.

6) Give us one suggestion to make this site easier on new members.
Maybe have a designated welcome committee that will help you get up and going. I had someone actually pm me to answer any question which was nice. But if they wouldn't of I would of felt like I was bothering someone by just messaging a person out of the blue

Prospect tournament sounds great. Maybe a kinda Q and A kind of thread for all the prospect to answer for all the teams to go in and read a little about the players eligible for the draft.

My buddy whigparty11 sent me the link to the reddit post yesterday.

It took a bit of digging, for me at least, to figure out how to link things, but it might have been my incompetence.
