I think he is talking about the thing that new managers see when they log on to the site. It is above the news section in the news page. Managers Checklist or something like that. I guess most new managers do those things pretty fast so i dont know if this is needed though.
It is my third full season here, so it is not related to new or old user.
I did not complete all my checklist (had no interest in that), so maybe that is the reason.
But, I'm quite sure that all has this box at their "News" page, as it sounds reasonable to have the user status at his league and tournament at the opening page.
The only thing is that at PO-time, its information is bad.
