Dynasty reporters and readers - Take this VERY quick manual poll

[Hellisan]

I think this will be useful for people thinking about reporting a dynasty.

On a scale from 1 to 5 with 5 being essential, how important are the following dynasty reporting elements to you as a reader?

When I say details, I mean how much would you want the dynasty reporter to get into? If you want to see it but don't need tons of detail, maybe a 3. If you don't care at all, a 1, and if you want to know as much as possible a 5.

Just copy and paste, and put your numeric answer behind the colon. I'll leave a space behind each colon to make it easier.

Recruiting Details:
Game Matchup Details:
Game Reporting Details:

Thanks for taking the time to do this. If you catch it early, and want to add a category, please mention it and include your vote, and I can update the original post to include your category.

Re: Dynasty reporters and readers - Take this VERY quick manual poll

Roster Details: 5
Injury/Susp. Details: 4
Recruiting Details: 4 (typically an update per bye week is sufficient, or otherwise as needed)
Game Matchup Details: 3.5
Game Reporting Details: 5
Conference Season Details: 3 (Standings/weekly scoreboard are usually enough)
NCAA/Top 25 Season Details: 4
Team Storylines: 5
NCAA Storylines: 4
User Coach Details: 4 (I guess? I've executed different dynasties where the coach(es) are sometimes discussed heavily, and other times very little. It all depends on how your dynasty/story is based).

This was difficult. I'm heavy into details, knowing the ins and outs of what's going on but I can understand it being a hassle to get everything out. Obviously, the things pertinent to your team are most important. If you're able to sprinkle in some world building, fantastic. But if it's no more than just the Top 25 polls no one is going to lose sleep.

Re: User Poll - Dynasty reporters and readers

Roster Details: 4 (I like a roster table and at least a little analysis on strengths/weaknesses. Depth Chart too.)

Injury/Susp. Details: 2 (Details are nice here but just a description and time out is fine.)

Recruiting Details: 3 (Like to see at minimum names and measureables, stories really help with immersion when all the real players are gone.)

Game Matchup Details: 3 (Good to know what you're going up against each week. At least some stats. This is bigger further into the dynasty when we don't know which teams are good and bad so much.)

Game Reporting Details: 5 (Most important. Doesn't need to be a book though. I see a lot of dynasties with just a few sentences describing the basics. Can't have just a box score.)

Conference Season Details: 3 (Good to at least see standings and players of the week.)

NCAA/Top 25 Season Details: 2 (Depends on your team. If you're in the thick of the top 10 it's nice to know what the teams around you have going on, helps make games feel more important. If you're fighting to stay out of the basement of CUSA all I need is a top 10-25 table.)

Team Storylines: 4 (We need to feel connected to the team, especially when the real players are gone.)

NCAA Storylines: 3 (See NCAA/Top 25 Details.)

User Coach Details: 4 (We need to know you if you are using a created coach.)

NCAA Coaches Details: 2 (Carousel is enough usually, interesting storylines are fun.)
