I think the best way to do rules is the simply make every character have an 85 (or an 80) in all skill categories. This would make it so everyone on the tour is identical and thus making the most talented players win. I considered options to make the players more unique, but I think an 85 in all stats is the fairest, fastest, and easiest way to get this tournament started on a fair note. Everyone should still be able to edit all other properties, such as if I want a two handed or one handed backhand. Is this cool with everyone?

My view on the ''rules'' question : We could just use the unmodified players whom come with the ''vanilla'' game, this would add more variety overall being all the tennis players different with their own strong and weak points and unique style of playing. Of course the stats of some players should be revised a little bit. Anyway I'm ok with the Simms view too, although I think it would be a little bit boring to have everyone the same player with every stat set to 80/85; on the other hand this is probably the best way for avoiding overpowering being all players with equal stats.

Honestly I am a little bit disappointet, that some matches are clear since 4 days or so and are not played yet ... after the draw I couldn't wait to play my first match.

I think we have to spread the game more, because when there are more players, there are morge online players an then there are more online players who want to play in tournaments. But if we can keep up, that about 8 to 12 people always play in a tournament, that would be a start ...

By all means, it would help if Full Ace players spread word about the game, make some lobbying on video game forums and even media. We are trying to get some exposure on our end but it is really hard ; I think people praising the game is a good way to draw attention.

The Wimbledon Tournament is running well. But now we should try to keep it moving. The sign-in for the next tournament is opened.

To all who didn't join the tour so far: You really miss a lot. Playing online tournaments really shifts FA to a new level. I sweat blood in my Wimbledon quarter final.

Schaffinho is trying to put up online tournaments now and then. Stay tuned.
As for other things, we need to find ways to build up the community to improve possibilities of online play.

Yes, I do. But I'll wait with my next try untill the new permanent chat function you offered is included. Sadly enough, it hasn't found its way in the new version.

Yeah, I understand your frustration, but there are times when I must decide to release a version regardless of the things I planned, or I get the feeling I won't ever release it. I do want to make an update soon to make things better for online play.

No point of frustration. Don't worry about that.
