Is it possible to publish a list of features that are not documented in the user manual.doc (nor in the html help included with the game)? Maybe it can be placed in these forums?

I am very new to the game (bought BBM2007 last week), and find that I don't know or understand many of the features which seem to only come up in these forums (and are sometimes difficult to search through).

A couple of things that come to mind:

(1) Spring training items - e.g., ability of veteran pitchers to teach a teammate one of their pitches (I have tried spring training yet, so I really have no clue how it works - the manual & html help don't seem to address it at all)

(2) Player contract items - e.g., explanation of how arbitration works, explanation of how the player and team option clauses work (does the team get first chance to exercise or player?), when & how you can release a player (how is the payoff determined?)

(3) Farm system items - e.g., does 'early' promotion impact player growth, what is a typical range of ratings for R, A, AA & AAA?

I am drawing a bit of a blank on the other nuggets of information I've learned here, but although I really like this game, I think the manual and help files are a bit lacking in information.

Thank you.

I agree with you here. There is a severe lack of information for an online, mulit-user game. It puts new users in an unfair position in trying to figure out how things work without having something to reference when needed.

Just learned about the "clutch" rating for RPs. Another item for the list.
