Tennis Masters

[dbest]

Hey Guys..
This is the game I entered in the PBBG Making Comp and did not complete in time.
So presenting, Tennis Masters, a game in which you manage your own academy of tennis players. The game will go live tomorrow.

Feel free to give me your comments about the demo site:
http://demo.tennismasters.org. You can login using demo/demo.

Do not try to sign up, as this would take you to the main site registration, which is now closed.

Season 1 begins today. http://tennismasters.org

The game is finally live to all who would like to join. There were a few teething issues which should have been sorted out. I have around 18 users who have registered. Hoping that it picks up in the days to come.

I don't play nor understand sport games so you won't get me to to play this no matter how good the game would be
I will just list some things I noticed, unfortunatelly I can not say anything about gameplay.

Why academies have such strange names like "HZPZXUGYMS"?
This page is blank: http://demo.tennismasters.org/viewCoach.php?coachid=1
On the front page there are 2 SignUp buttons, it looks strange and confusing.
Membership link is above the menu (FireFox).
Add "$" next to Wage, will be more clear.
"Try our demo or visit our HELP section before you start. " this looks strange, as if you were obligued to try demo before being allowed to register. Actually, you want it the other way, you want first them to register, but if they are reluctant to do so they can try demo account, but only if they really must

Thanks for actually taking the time to visit the game site, since you do not fancy such games.

- Academy names were randomly generated. Will need to populate a db with random names so that it looks good.
- The coach page needs to be fixed
- The reason for 2 sign-ups was that users could just sign up or read the rest of the text and then sign-up
- The membership link is placed there...
- Will add the $
- It was supposed to mean, join us or try out our demo if you are not sure...

Reworded that text to:
To learn more about the game you can choose to Try our demo or visit our HELP section. The sign up button is now above the text.
