There are continous posts in the Bugs forum from confused users who think they didn't get money for their "home" games. Frequently, this appears to be because BB uses the American style of listing a match al over, with the home team last.

I suggest that this me made a user preference, and that a sensible default be set for new users (e.g. A-H for a new USA user, H-A for a new European).

well if this does not cause any trouble with the engine/ speed of the site I will agree with you, it can be quite confusing for new users.

I'm European, and the first thing that caught my eye was that the home team stood in second place.
The titels on top of the page which state away and home team are rather eye-catching in my opinion, so it shouldn't be to big a problem.

Ofcourse there are always sleepers amongst us... ;รพ

Actually, it might be easier to just mention it in a pargraph in the rules. Normally new players first read the rules, so they'll know. Working with diffrent screens for diffrent countries might be much more difficult, dunno...

I agree that it should be mentioned in the rules. I know an entire rules rewrite is in the works, so it will probably be included then.
