Agreed - Fugger has taken good care of us. With the exception of the period when reliability was an issue, couldn't have asked for anything more from him. If we ask, I'd guess he'll comply as long as it's not a terrible amount of work.
And yeah, we need to get back to having 200 "little guys"... while the top 10 get a lot of publicity, they used to only make up a small percentage of our total points... (1-10 made up ~15%, 11-50 about 40%, then 51-200 the remaining 45% or so) That was a great mixture - a few heavy hitters, a bunch of dedicated guys and a whole community contributing what they could to pull it all together!
XS email - don't know that I'd use it... but I'm all for additional XS publicity. I do think we should do something subtle to distinguish that we're team XS...
An informational website would also be great! Could post all of the background and how-to stuff there, then keep the forum for interacting... Just need someone to manage all of that - think it might be too much to ask Fugger. (
PG, you feeling ambitious?)
Love the new team banner idea - going to make it my WCG logo when we decide on one! (That should help with publicity!)
Also, what about running internal competitions? Like chose arbitrary divides, form a team for a month, and see which team wins?
Team 1: Above 40 years old, Team 2: Below 40. (or arbitrary amount)
Team 1: Gamers, Team 2:Non-Gamers
Team 1: Beer, Team 2: Spirits
Really, any arbitrary divide... and see who wins in a week/month/whatever.
Any easy way to do that?
And yes - more polls. Way more polls. Sparky's on the right track, but I think we need another layer or two before his polls start.
