    yeah, major update...

    Blackcell is nice but too much info for what we are doing here.
    But, there could be a blackcell link on the map that goes to your page. Just a central location for ao people to see/follow teams.

    I will be working on another update soon.
    Muzikman I agree with the event section.
    on the map page I can add an event section with links to teams that are playing there where they can post results/rosters, etc.

    this will be cool, keep checkin back.

          How about a way to zoom in on a region. Like NE, SE, Mid west, NW, SW, UK, Europe, etc... and when you click on that region it zooms in on a more detailed map. This way it doesn't get too cluttered.

          As an idea to what type of info you might want for an event take a look at this. http://www.noodlehoops.com/pog/index.html

          It's not a flashy site, but it has all the information you need.

          The idea of TeamAO (or Team Automag.org) came about when I wanted to put together a team of AOers for Skyball in 2002 and at about the same time Dirtybunny was putting together a team in Socal to play the LA NPPL (I think it was). The two vast differences was that he was drawing the group of people from one region to form the team and actually hold practices, which I think they did. My idea is more like Team POG (see link above) where you draw a group of people from where ever and play a big event. The only time that a team played under the heading "TeamAO" or "Team Automags.org" that I know of was the group that played the Mardi Gras Open this past year. I was not involved with the team, but I am glad that someone actually pulled it off and from what I hear, they had a blast. I registed the teamao.org (plus a few others, teamautomag.org, teamautomageonline.org and teamautomagsonline.com) domain after it looked like a definite that the guys where going to play MGO. I wanted a place for them to put the pics, stories, etc, but it just never happened.

          BTW, sorry, the last part has nothing to do with the site, but background info for those that don't get what TeamAO is or atleast what "I" think it is

                      that's exactly what we were planning on doing Remington..it's hard for us to host everyone's pages but we'll just try and link to it and let you host your own site where ever..

                          ooh,
                          nice offer from the man himself.

                          let's go everyone,
                          send me (or DB or muzikman) your
                          team's name, players names, blurb about you, pictures of you, your logo, and a link to your homepage if you have one.

                          Click on "team Tom" on the map page of teamao.org to see the idea.

                              First off... the site looks AWESOME. Kudos to you Jam and Muzikman, and DB, even if you did only put people together.

                              I have one comment/improvement, with the throw togther teams I think you could list the name and then when the user scrolls over the name the arrows then highlight where the team members are from, not just one location for the entire team, as it stands now. Through together teams are jsut that, a group of people from online, that have been "thrown together".

                              For Example: my team AFTICA is based here on AO, not Chile. The team members are from all over the US, Canada, and one member from the UK(thanks Manike ) To say we're based in Chile whn only one of us is residing there(which BTW, will not be the case soon) just doesn't make sense to me and tells the user that we are a team from Chile, not our respective countries.

                              Sorry about the long windedness of this post but I thought I would make my sugestion known. If this doesnt make sense, them PM me and we can talk.

                              Thanks again for the great work! cant wait to see more tweeks and mods.

                                I agree CM about the thrown together teams.

                                For now, I am going to point the teams that are from wide areas towards the place they will play - AFTICA points now at IAO.
                                To have all those arrows and whatnot would be a nightmare to maintain. The other option is to have random member or "AO" teams not have a location arrow at all.

                                Basically, if you guys send me info/pics, i can put up an AFTICA team page that your name on the map page will link to and on this team page it will link names, where you're all from, where you'll play, what you shoot, etc.
