Default Need feedback from new members - Where should we list games?

As you know, we have been setting up a lot of freerolls for members recently. This weekend we have another 2 sites putting up a freeroll for us and we also have a bonus game at full tilt on sunday too.

My question is this - What do you think is the best place to advertise upcoming freerolls and games?

Previously, we listed all games in the THF schedule (Official TexasHoldemForums Games Schedule) however new members always struggled to find this page haha. For the past two weeks I have been placing game details on the Freeroll Page

Do you think we should list games in the schedule or in the freeroll page?

Also, do you think it's worth listing upcoming games at the left hand side of the page or at the top of the page as well.

I'd like to hear from established members too but since new members are the ones who are not sure where all the info is I'd like to hear their opinion on this

I think the freeroll page is fine. Something about the word "freeroll" seems to get peoples attention.

The freeroll page works great, i guess i'm counted as a regular

I think it's easy to spot the banner and the info on the page is very good.

I still think we should arrange a calendar with all games that we have on thf, would be alot easier to have all freerolls buyins and special games in a calendar, with links to the different gamethreads.

We used the calendar at one point but we found the schedule page was being used more often

I know this may sound like too much work but why not list the games in the areas suggested? My reasoning is that everyone is different on how they look for things. Some will look for a calendar of events others will look for a freeroll page and others may look for an events page. If this is too much work for one person then delegate a person or persons to manage each section.

I dont think there is any need to duplicate the info on many parts of the site. We should have the one page which we use for listing the games and then we can all refer to it

I agree with chris, people are different, if i join a forum looking for a game i just saw i would look for a calendar, some will look for some kind of event page and some will just look through the threads.

Fonz, the schedule doesen't update single events like some 1000th post games and stuff like that, it doesen't show something like the Full tilt buyin...

yes I know...thats some I need to rectify The freeroll page is listing all the freerolls for Saturday but I think it would be good to list everything on the one page..particularly if the number of pay games increases

Well I had no problem with it, but when I clicked the here (url) word for pass word, it stated I did not have enough "privileges to access this page."

Which makes it redunant. Could tell people what the people need to qualify in that message. Would help a lot.

Thank you for asking and hope I have not offended any one , if so I am sorry I did not mean to.
