Two questions:
1) Does Red Zone Freak work for punters and kickers, and which 20 yard line of the field will it work for punters? Might be a nice SA when pinned in the first 20 yards, but not if it only works 20 yards from the end zone.
2) Since the start of GLB, what do you think are GLB's three biggest mistakes and three biggest successes? I'd be happy to hear your personal opinion, or a consensus opinion from a variety of admins. I'm particularly interested because I can't recall anyone in an administrative capacity with GLB ever acknowledging a mistake. If you don't think there have ever been any, that's fine too, I'd just like to know.Originally posted by Bort
1) It works for any position when inside the offensive red zone. A pinned punter would not get the bonus, since he's 80 yards away from the red zone. A K kicking a really close field goal would get the bonus, though I doubt he would need it.I'll answer #2.
Biggest mistakes:
1) lack of testing when rolling out a large number of changes that were made to the game
2) allowing public opinion to alter/sway the vision of GLB too often
3) the lack of information available to new users of the game
Biggest successes:
1) the development and launch of this game. It's still going strong three years after launch because it's a good concept and a fun game to play.
2) Our Support team. They do a great job of quickly addressing user concerns and issues.
3) Age based leagues.
