Re: Week 1: Thoughts, comments

Alright, I'm going to nit-pick here.

Is it possible to have a more viewer-friendly ranking screen? I remember the rankings in 2004 were great, with numbers and team names in large friendly letters. You had your rank, the short name, the W/L/T, and average RP. This year, the look is cluttered, and it doesn't really fit well visually with the other graphics shown on the big screen (save, perhaps, the sponsors loop showing at VCU). I can't even make out the headings--I can only guess some things based on context (for example, nothing besides the W/L/T record has a format of 3-4-1).

That said, I can decently track what's on the field, and the announcements of the next periods came in clearly for me. It might be a VCU thing, but it works well. Tracking who's ahead is decent, but they really need to leave the RTS up.

Flags seem to be doing a well enough job for me.

Excuse the nit-picking,

Billfred
