On a side note, the IWF would like to remind you that it is easier for us to accept emailed comments/reports if you have computer access. We can be reached at [email protected]. Additionally, with the Ad having coming out in WOW Magazine August 1st, we anticipate a lot more reponsibilities, so if you are going to send in hand-written or typed comments, please, no more than 2 or 3 full pages per manager to make sure all your comments are printed. If emailed, send as much as ya like. Right now we would like to welcome all new managers from the WOW Ad into the IWF! It�s great to have you aboard! You may or may not know, but if you get a friend to join the IWF, you receive 5 free matches for each person you bring in! Veteran managers, note that you can�t enter a rookie league until the league is 6 cycles old. This is to let the new managers craft their skills. And here we once again reiterate, it helps a ton to use a hold value chart! You should notice your strategies getting better and better if you do.
