Do you read the history in the MOTD?
« on: June 22, 2010, 01:53:15 PM »
Question for the people who are enjoying the AvA. When you get into the arena what part of the MOTD (arena message) do you read? Do you spend time reading the historical overview?

What information do you want to be able to find quickly in the arena message when you get into the arena?

I read the MOTD.

I would suggest the following:

The very first thing should be what chess piece is which side(Including the Neutral side) in big letters. That is the number one issue with new guys in the arena.

After that information the event history and summary is great.

Chesspiece, airfields, aircraft and objectives, when we have them. Story last.
