So far, I haven't seen many complaints about the new CKA main video board / scoreboard. I'll go first.
I like the higher-definition video, although the logic of running continuous video of the action on the floor escapes me. What I dislike most is the presentation of the text in the lower quarter of the board, that is, the "scoreboard" portion of the video board.
The scoreboard is too small, too busy and too hard to read. We sit in row 17 pretty much off a corner of the board. We do not have a straight-on view of the board. The game score and clock are OK (albiet a little small), but the team fouls and TOL and the player numbers and stats too small and all of the white lines forming the grid around EVERY SINGLE THING on the scoreboard make it too busy and even more difficult to read.
The grid should be eliminated or changed to a very thin line of a dark color (i.e. subtle red) and the meaningful print should be bigger.
I assume this is a programming job or perhaps there are different templates available for scoreboard display. I would like to see some experimentation leading toward improvement.
The video board / scoreboard should compliment and enhance the experience of the game being played on the floor. I don't think we're there with the current configuration. We have a lot of (too much) advertising, which is fodder for another discussion.
One more question - is there a clock visible anywhere inside CKA now?
