Since FAQ is the section most needed at this site at the moment, and the forum doesn't help enough (read "Time left") I volunteer to write the texts (....native anglo-speakers should check the spelling....) I would ask anyone to propose FAQ. Of course the question featuring most frequently on this page (e.g. How much time is there left?) should be on it, at the top.

I think some more details game rules are needed - especially with the word game. Awhile back, I noticed that someone had resigned right away without even bidding - I asked him why, and the reason was "I'm new, and that is the only thing it seemed like I could click on". -------------------- I bring this up now, because about 5 minutes ago, I noticed another new player resigning my game without even making a move - and I bet the reason is because he just does not understand how to play - and the rules are a little vague! :-)

That's true... rules are important (even for known games since it might be different from what you learned)...
I suggest the following topics [time] [tournaments] [go] [reversi] [gwg] [amazons] [hex] [info available] [rankings].
Any others?

I'll start now, writing FAQ, so suggestions are very welcome...
