1) How did you find us? r/hockey post

2) Is the the site easy to navigate as a newcomer? It's a lot to take in at once. I'm sure there's still some information I should be aware of that I'm not, gonna have to do some more digging.

3) Did you have any trouble creating your player? Creating was easy, understanding the update thread took some time to get.

4) Did you use the video/written tutorial when creating your player? If yes, did it help? The written tutorial lost me, but the video tutorial was enough to help me through it.

5) What would you like to do while waiting for the SMJHL Draft?(Example: Prospect Tournament) Would be a good way of seeing how the sim works before being signed

6) Give us one suggestion to make this site easier on new members. Maybe the home page could be dedicated to helping new players with links to where they need to go, so the entire forum isn't in their face at once.

1) How did you find us?
Reddit

2) Is the the site easy to navigate as a newcomer?
It's a little hard to navigate on my first day but I'm sure it'll be fine once I get used to it

3) Did you have any trouble creating your player?
No

4) Did you use the video/written tutorial when creating your player? If yes, did it help?
Couldn't watch the video so I just looked up the stat faq

5) What would you like to do while waiting for the SMJHL Draft?(Example: Prospect Tournament)
It's in a few days so I just want to try to earn some money and TPE while not busy with work

6) Give us one suggestion to make this site easier on new members.
There's a nice rookie guide once you get the locker room, but maybe condense everything needed to start into one area. It's a lot of info at first so might be hard.

1) How did you find us?
A post on reddit

2) Is the the site easy to navigate as a newcomer?
Somewhat, you have to dig quite a bit to get the information you want.

3) Did you have any trouble creating your player?
Not much, beyond the country of origin. As mentioned previously, it's difficult to find the information, in this case the IHF recruitment threads, that influence the decision.

4) Did you use the video/written tutorial when creating your player? If yes, did it help?
Yes, I used the written tutorial, and yes it did.

5) What would you like to do while waiting for the SMJHL Draft?(Example: Prospect Tournament)
Gain more TPE to improve however possible.

6) Give us one suggestion to make this site easier on new members.
Honestly, a simple graph explaining each step beyond the writing or visual guides would be helpful.

1) How did you find us?
Reddit
2) Is the site easy to navigate as a newcomer?
Yes, very friendly appearance for newcomers.
3) Did you have any trouble creating your player?
None at all, the create a player tab helped a lot.
4) Did you use the video/written tutorial when creating your player? If yes, did it help?
I used the written tutorial and it walked me through step by step perfectly.
5) What would you like to do while waiting for the SMJHL Draft?(Example: Prospect Tournament)
A prospect tournament sounds like a ton of fun, and the media week sounds like fun.
6) Give us one suggestion to make this site easier on new members.
Overwhelmed with information from the get go, so maybe condense the introduction a bit.

1) How did you find us?
- r/hockey post

2) Is the the site easy to navigate as a newcomer?
- Yep! I'm familiar with forums in general so it seems pretty seamless.

3) Did you have any trouble creating your player?
- No, the form was pretty straightforward. I did an initial build, then tweaked it for probably 15min before hitting submit.

4) Did you use the video/written tutorial when creating your player? If yes, did it help?
- I did, I thought the volume was a bit low on the video but it was helpful.

5) What would you like to do while waiting for the SMJHL Draft?(Example: Prospect Tournament)
- Hmm... well there are top tier beer leagues around the country. "Da Beauty League", and some other high end ones around Toronto/Buffalo/Boston... maybe something along those lines? Also lately elite players seem to be enrolling in an offseason fitness camp like Gary Roberts holds, and the #CAMP one whoever makes that one happen. Maybe a general offseason choice? Beer league will enhance puckhandling stuff, fittness camp will add strength, etc.

6) Give us one suggestion to make this site easier on new members.
- I've only been on the site for a little over an hour, but I think you've got the formula down. Easy to use, normal forum. The discord is helpful as well.

1) How did you find us?

Recruiting post on Reddit

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

It's a little overwhelming at first, information seems to be all over the place but I'm getting used to it

3) Did you have any trouble creating your player?

No, tutorial was easy to follow

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

I used the written tutorial, was clear and helpful

5) What would you like to do while waiting for the SMJHL Draft?(Example: Prospect Tournament)

A tournament would be nice to get a feel of how simulation works

6) Give us one suggestion to make this site easier on new members.

Making resources easier to find, including all the different ways to earn TPE

1) How did you find us?
Reddit recruitment post yesterday. I've seen them in years before, never got around to joining until now.

2) Is the the site easy to navigate as a newcomer?
Could be much easier. A wiki or visual aids might help more than threads linking to other threads, etc

3) Did you have any trouble creating your player?
Not really.

4) Did you use the video/written tutorial when creating your player? If yes, did it help?
Written tutorial. Did help me think of some stats I may have neglected otherwise. We'll see how I turn out. Smile

5) What would you like to do while waiting for the SMJHL Draft?(Example: Prospect Tournament)
Learn more about the league history & operation. Skills development (bonus TPE)

6) Give us one suggestion to make this site easier on new members.
I think a wiki may help as a newcomer's guide more than a chain of threads linked together

Z0REM · 07-30-2019, 12:26 PM

1) How did you find us?
Through Reddit recruitment post

2) Is the the site easy to navigate as a newcomer?
After watching the video and being on the discord I have been able to figure out most things!

3) Did you have any trouble creating your player?
None. Except that I created on my phone and the first time I had quickly scrolled down and refreshed the page. At least this was before deciding stats!

4) Did you use the video/written tutorial when creating your player? If yes, did it help?
Not when creating the player, but for figuring out what to do next. Without that I would have been lost. The discord has been phenomenal for newbies.

5) What would you like to do while waiting for the SMJHL Draft?(Example: Prospect Tournament)
I don't have a lot of time to wait thankfully, but I want to get into learning more about the league and writing some articles for points.

6) Give us one suggestion to make this site easier on new members.
Threads can be hard to follow sometimes. Having everything consolidated to an article or pdf in one post would help a lot.
