this is a fairly long thread and I will have forgotten my suggestion before I scanned all the posts (or even other threads) so here goes:

In the search feature for teams it would have been great if I could search on every part of the name.

Example: I found some great looking pistons and I have an idea of a banner & logo, and remember having seen the perfect team for it, but I can't find it again since Pistons was the latter part of the name. All I find now is Pistons .....something... (not ....something... Pistons, which is what I am looking for).

That's not true. I can see my schedule or league schedule but it is
a)only list of matches - without effort (counting, checking dates) it is impossible to simply see the weeks; also the number of matches per week differ (Sc,PL,cup,BBB) so it is impossible to simply see the weeks
​
Sure, it might be a good idea to draw separator lines between weeks in the schedule, maybe number them on the side. I don't think that any other type of indicator is needed.
​
​
​
b)it is divided by league rounds - it doesn't help to see when season started and when it will end which it was the main purpose of my suggestion - to give a newly regisered player a hint of the important dates of the season (start, end, draft, PO, ...) - for example you can't say when the new season will start without counting.
​
The first game and the last game are dated. That to me is a pretty good indication of when the season started and when it ends. Playoffs, very obviously, start after your last league game, and the draft is after the playoffs. Since the draft is manually run at this point, I don't think any more precision is possible.


i don't care about games. It would help to better orientation - i.e. scouting could be easier to estimate etc. and most importantly newly registered player would see how many weeks to the ned of season (not a league) remain. I don't think it would be hard to implement and many things would be easier to understand.

I understand some things are run manually (although it shocked me when I realized it). I didn't say anything about date of draft/editable list of prospects - it would sufficient to say it is after this or that or in week X and before this or that. However the more specific the more reliable and better for managing for players.

Can you tell me when the next season starts? (date)

The playoffs + off-season are exactly 3 weeks long, which means the next season starts exactly 3 weeks from your last regular season game. In this particular case, Season 7 starts on Nov 22.

I am tired of all the offers for Private League participation.
Can we have a button to click showing all the true lack of interest, so no-one will ask until I click the button ones more? Or a ComboBox with two possibilities: "Possible to challenge" // "Not possible to challenge" and a button to submit the [Change]?
(Only for Supporters of course as PL is only for them, right?)

Just open your own PL. I think it is the easiest way to avoid invitations. As long as you are in a PL, noone can invite you to his/her PL.

- so if you don't want to take part of a PL, just go and start one! Logicically your are right if the invitations was the only problem.

I agree that there should probably be an opt-out button for private leagues. But if indeed the invitations are the only problem, then this is a convenient quick fix for now.

This can not be true. You suggest that the manager shall start PL with as many teams as possible and when it's almost full, he shall turn the whole league off so he can start a new one and turn it off and so on ...? As a solution to stop invitations!
I think Unkel has a good idea. He might have seen it in Hattrick and liked it?

Older than the rest ...

You can just start a league and never send any invitations. Your league will never really has to start, no?

I just said that it's a good idea to have an opt-out button in my previous post. This here was a suggestion for a stop-gap solution until it's implemented.
