Hi Charles, the first issue that comes to my mind is the Standings. Recently, it's been updating at an unusual rate.

While it should be updated as soon as the matches end, last week's update came four days after the matches.

Hey Charles will get my thinking cap on...

By the way - I asked once on the GM forum... can we rename our top division... l.1 seems so boring!

I guess changing JBL into JBBL would be most appropriate unless you have another suggestion?

happy to wait and hear if others agree or not... the league over here is the JBL (not named after the WWE guy I hope!) and from reading some other threads I gather we cant use the official abbreviations.... so to me JBBL seemed most logical and inline with the other leagues... I guess the only other alternative is JBBBL...?

When I came to Japan and spread the word about hattrick, most of the people around me started playing and many became way more fanatical about the game than I ever was. Then the economics of hattrick changed and you couldn't realistically maintain those trainees you had really become attached to. At this point all but one of the fifteen or so people I rallied to hattrick stayed on. Everyone else quit.

The two of us left that stil play ht have tried and failed get those others to even try bb. My younger brother back home - another ht casualty - won't try. The word hattrick sounds great if you enjoy the game. If you are someone who became entirely discoraged by it, then hearing that another game is like ht means it isn't worth trying.

With regards to Japan:

The foreign born population of Japan is only 3 percent. The English speaking percentage of that group is less than 1 percent. If you want Japanese managers then you will need a Japanese translation.

And it never hurts to have some service which would allow people to play using their cell phones (If it doesn't already exist).
