1) How did you find us?
Unrelated Discord server.
2) Is the the site easy to navigate as a newcomer?
The hardest part was finding the unassigned player updates section, and overall stuff for new players is very hard to find imo.
3) Did you have any trouble creating your player?
Not at all.
4) Did you use the video/written tutorial when creating your player? If yes, did it help?
I used the written tutorial and it helped to get an idea of how the basic systems worked.
5) What would you like to do while waiting for the SMJHL Draft?(Example: Prospect Tournament)
Just give some sort of playing time tbh.
6) Give us one suggestion to make this site easier on new members.
Instead of putting prospect stuff in the SMJHL player database section, make it its own section, or rename it to something indicating that's where prospects should go.

Yeah seems pretty easy so far
3) Did you have any trouble creating your player?
No not really. It was pretty easy actually.

Place categories that offer points to new members higher in the forum so they don't necessarily have to scroll to see it.

Reddit recruitment ad on /r/tampabaylightning
2) Is the the site easy to navigate as a newcomer?
I have experience with these types of forums so I was able to figure it out, especially with some friendly help on the Discord. If someone new to these types of sites got on I could see them having trouble though.
3) Did you have any trouble creating your player?
Nope. The form was really easy and understandable.
4) Did you use the video/written tutorial when creating your player? If yes, did it help?
Written tourital. It absolutely helped.
5) What would you like to do while waiting for the SMJHL Draft?(Example: Prospect Tournament)
That would be fun.
6) Give us one suggestion to make this site easier on new members.

Have everything in a more central place. I had to find some links on the sites after I made my character and ask Discord for more. If the new player start guide was easier to find I think it would help a lot of people.

*kenvald* · 11-15-2019, 10:07 PM

1) How did you find us?
Through Reddit.

2) Is the the site easy to navigate as a newcomer?
It's not great, as there are a lot to take in immediately when trying to figure out how everything works.

3) Did you have any trouble creating your player?
Nope. Smooth sailing thanks to the tutorial posts.

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

5) What would you like to do while waiting for the SMJHL Draft?(Example: Prospect Tournament)
Tournament sounds great. If the simulator allows it maybe there could also be some kind of combine event.

6) Give us one suggestion to make this site easier on new members.
Have a banner on the front page that explains what this is all about and how to get started. Someone new seeing the forum layout with no explanations can easily be overwhelmed unless there's somewhere easy to start.

1) How did you find us?
Reddit post!

2) Is the the site easy to navigate as a newcomer?
For me, yes, because I have experience on similar sites.

3) Did you have any trouble creating your player?
Nope! Easy and simple.

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

5) What would you like to do while waiting for the SMJHL Draft?(Example: Prospect Tournament)
A Prospect Tournament could help for both new players and GMs!

6) Give us one suggestion to make this site easier on new members.
Easier access to important links for newcomers.

1) How did you find us?

Someone linked it on a Dutch hockey related forum

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

Yeah, not too bad.

3) Did you have any trouble creating your player?

Apart from not recognizing the importance of the defense skill, not really.

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

Written. And yes.

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

A way to get to know the other prospects and teams would be nice. Like try-outs.

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

Update the guides. A lot of the ones I found have outdated links.

***_Blitz_*** · 11-16-2019, 02:22 PM

1) How did you find us?
Some guy posted about it on Reddit. I lost the post though, or I would've put his name in my player creation.
2) Is the the site easy to navigate as a newcomer?
It's okay. There's a lot going on, so it feels overwhelming right now. I'm sure as I'm here more, it'll get easier.
3) Did you have any trouble creating your player?
A little, but that was because my page kept timing out on my end. The video tutorial helped a lot, as did the written post.
4) Did you use the video/written tutorial when creating your player? If yes, did it help?
I did, they're very helpful.
5) What would you like to do while waiting for the SMJHL Draft?(Example: Prospect Tournament)
I came in kinda late, so I'm focusing on figuring out money and TPE.
6) Give us one suggestion to make this site easier on new members.
It's set up pretty well as it is. I can't really think of a solution for any of my troubles so far.

This Point Task is for new members only (first generation players) that have joined the league. As the league continues to grow and find ways to expand and grow the league. We are looking for your feedback to help as we continue to move forward with the league.

We have prepared a small quick survey that will help us evaluate the site and help us continue to grow the league moving forward.

For completing this survey all new members (sorry recreates this isn't for you) to the league will get 2 uncapped TPE to help you grow with your first player. All you have to do is answer the 6 questions below in a new post and as you learned from "My First Point Task" click your survey post results link and attach it to your player update page.

1) How did you find us?

I saw a post on Reddit in a hockey subreddit.

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

Like most new things, it can be a bit overwhelming but other than that it is not difficult to navigate.

3) Did you have any trouble creating your player?

No, the character creation tool was super useful.

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

The written tutorial was super useful for creating my player and just generally getting started. Couldn't have done it without the tutorial.

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

T-Minus less than 24 hours to the draft, I'll just complete the Interested Prospects Surveys haha!

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

The tutorial is excellent for getting started, creating a character and completing the free 500k PT. I think further instruction on what to expect afterwards and some tips & tricks would be super useful as I felt a bit overwhelmed after the tutorial.
