OK i understand the suggestion now.
I think its a good suggestion! But maybe its a bit overkill? Like using a brick to get into a peanut shell.
Still it is a good idea for half time. I don't think there is much advantage to anyone really.
I think the current bid system does contain some of the elements that you have suggested. But i think this discussion is off topic. We should discuss improvements to the current bid system in another thread.

i would agree on shortening the half time break

how about break down analysis ?

Many users suggest shortening the 15mins, but I wouldn't like that as I believe now what we have gives a nice feeling of 'real', the pause being as long.

THAT WOULD BE AWESOME!!!!!

New idea, maybe some sort of poll where users (maybe only in that division, level or country) can vote on who they think is going to win (and maybe get a sliding scale based on how big the disparity is). the points are kept track of all year, then the top manager gets...a spot in the 3 point shoot out? a trophy? one week of supporter?

oooooo introducing a gambling/betting aspect into BB.

Dangerous.

Let me sum it up the Pini way:

Reading a book is interactive, because I can turn a page.

No one is coming here to voice his reason, so we have to give people who don´t care or who don´t bother putting any effort in a way to leave their voice without checking whether they even remotely understood the topic.

We´d like to give the LAs alot more work because they have to translate a topic per gameday (and privatleague games maybe, and international games, and BBB too?) to each language, or do you plan to post an english question? Oh wait, that´s against user-friendlyness. But it´s so important data it will for sure be worth it.

Making people vote at halftime on short questions without any discussion nor explanatory background is making things alot more user friendly and better.

The requested data by doing this is pretty useless, as no decision depends on it nor will it change a thing, yet the re-coding of the entire viewer is more important than most other things to do.

So here´s again a list of "against" reasons:

Polls require short information about the proposed change. Most suggestions here are neither short nor understandable without a proper explanation about the reason. So you either post a sermon at halftime, or you´ll get a pretty uninteresting response. Also, the process discussing things is more key to the process of implementing suggestions than the suggestion itself in like 85% of the topics.

You have to translate the whole stuff or you´ll have to post it in english, which makes it pretty unintersting for plenty users.

You have to recode the Viewer Tool to become interactive (which - as I dare to reply it isn´t as of now).

You have to even make a point about the relevance of the data you want to collect.
