Steve, do you still have the 'How to play out a game' section on your to do list? Last night I was having problems trying to manage a spring training game, and there were some errors in that section of the manual, so I assume it hasn't been updated from version 8 yet.

First of all, the graphic you have with the arrow pointing to the 'play next game' line on the manager home page is very neat, but (at least in spring training, at least in the Mac version) no such 'play next game' line appears on my manager's home page.

Second, I was following the hyperlinks, trying to learn how to manage a game in version 9, when I came to a busted link. Confusingly, the game then asked me to add my own link to the 'not found' page. Since I have no idea how to hyperlink anything, I declined. I also never found the information I needed.

I find this whole hyperlink thing confusing. I would much rather be able to read through a manual page by page than to HAVE TO change pages by clicking on a hyperlink. Having the option to jump around can be very cool when you know exactly what you're looking for, but when you're kind of searching hopelessly (as I often do), you have no idea whether you've covered all of the ways off the page you started with. Then, the link takes you to multiple other links, some of which cross over, and you just have no idea whether or not you've missed something.

Oh, and what if what you want is on the other side of a busted link? Pages, please.
