I think your players eventually retire at like 35.

Age affects how fast skills will decline afaik

No I had a 12 year old who put up decent results.

So for those of us who haven't had the chance to play this yet, can anyone describe it? It's an MMO, but how big is the competitive aspect? Is it fun just to sort of tinker around on your own?
I do quite like these types of games. I played Hattrick, and also a sort of CS manager game that was amusing for a while.

Well there are ELO tables and you can put a lot of thought into your strategies. I think once the game has time to develop we will see who has a clue or not, I imagine that it's impossible to get to the top ladder (banjo league ^^) without having good staff/training/strategies.
Some of the team names and strategy names are fantastic as are the sponsor names and descriptions :D
Edit: And as for a description of it, if you have ever played the Championship Manager/Football Manager games, it's similar to those games.
You start off with a draft of four players from a pool of fifteen, you then set up your practice partners and training focuses, get a sponsor and start entering tournaments.
Players have a variety of technical and mental attributes such as Macro, Micro, Multitasking, Dedication, Popularity etc. They also have a trait, which include standard ones like Macro Monster and Cheeser to Ex-BW/WC3 pro to the more humerous and unwanted Idra GG-timing and Yellow Fever.
The games are played out in rounds which each take up 30 seconds of the match, your strategies can be set up to how you want your player to perform with a slider to choose a balance between Economy and Army supply, then an action like attack, defend or scout.
Then theres a free agent market and when your team gets to a higher level you can start running a house etc.
It goes into a lot more detail than what I've said but that would be the gist of it.

I really hope that the server comes back up by the time my next class ends! I need a timesink and I had a blast playing this last night. Unfortunately their backup was several hours before the crash which is about when I created my account so I will probably have to make a new one -_-' But now that I know what i'm doing (kinda), I shall make an even better team! yeeaah!
