Hello and Welcome to the Luck of the Draw web site!
Our goal is to make this site a fun and enjoyable
experience each time you visit. We feel that the key to
achieving this goal is to make the site user friendly
and to offer our services and products at very
reasonable prices.
To help you get a feel for the LOTD site and
become comfortable with the navigational process, we
will walk you through how the site is set-up. Since this
is a sports oriented site, we’ve used a series of sports
related play-on-words and analogies to help describe how
you move throughout the site and ultimately Take the Field and play The Game Within The Game.
TAILGATING
Think of the Home Page and the informative screens that
can be accessed from the Home Page as the pre-game
festivities. The site areas available in this portion of
the web site are: About Us; Site Overview and
How to
Play (includes rules, operating the LOTD scoreboard, FAQs, terminology and helpful tips). The
main objective of each of these site areas is to provide
our visitors with key information regarding how the web
site is set-up and how Football Luck of the Draw is
played online.
Once you have had a chance to visit these site areas you
should be fired up and ready to buy a ticket to the Big
Game where you will become part of “The Game within the
Game!” But first you will need to gain access to the
LOTD Stadium.
ENTERING THE LOTD STADIUM
Now visualize the remaining site areas as being
different locations within the LOTD Stadium. In order to
enter the stadium and eventually Take the Field you must
first become an LOTD Member. This is absolutely free and simply involves
clicking the Become a Member button and providing
information and establishing your User ID (your e-mail
address) and Password. Once this process has been
completed, you are ready to move about the stadium.
STEP UP TO THE TICKET WINDOW
Now you are ready to play one of the most thrilling
on-line interactive games ever created called Football
Luck of the Draw! But there are a few things you need to
do first before you can take the field. The most
important of these tasks is purchasing LOTD Game Tickets
or LOTD League Tickets. This is done by clicking
Ticket
Window where you can make your ticket quantity
selection. These transactions are done in a very secure
manner through the use of
PayPal. We have made a
conscious effort to make the ticket prices very
attractive and reward our customers with some volume
price breaks.VISIT THE LOTD SOUVENIR SHOP
You can visit this location of the stadium by clicking
on Souvenir Shop. Here you will find various game accessories. If
there is an item that you would like to have added,
please e-mail us at playlotd@woh.rr.com with your
suggestions.
OCCUPY THE LEAGUE COMMISSIONER’S OFFICE
Setting up your own league is the best way to experience
Football Luck of the Draw on-line. This structured
playing format creates camaraderie among league members
and allows rivalries to form between certain players.
League stats and standings are generated throughout the
season so you can track each league member’s
performance.
So if you want to be a League Commissioner (LC) and have
purchased your league ticket package, then you can
create your League Roster by clicking on
Leagues. You
will also need to set-up the League Schedule and select
the League Game Play Options. Hey, they don’t pay you
the big bucks for nothing!
TEAM FRONT OFFICE
This is where you can become a team GM (aka GA) for a
day and create a new LOTD game session by clicking on
Create a New Game. Players who wish to set-up their own game
session must serve as the Game Administrator (GA) and
have at least one ticket in their account. The GA is
responsible for setting up the initial Game Roster,
and selecting the Game Play Options. If you like to be in control,
then the GA role is for you!
TAKING THE FIELD
Once you have gained access to the locker room by
signing in and have clicked Take the Field to
play a game, then you are ready to step out on the
field and seize control of the LOTD Scoreboard. The
actual Football LOTD game will kickoff once the Begin
Game button is clicked. Now it is time to fasten your
chin strap and experience The Game within the Game!
