first year with the game? no better way to learn than through failure lol
embrace it!
i tried too much at once.. got frustrated..came back a few months later with a real determination.. been smooth since. well, smooth-ish. first few legues never got more than a few years out before i wanted to change one more thing.. one more thing.. eventually i got it how i wanted over time. i enjoy the creation process and quite efficient at it through learning from numerous mistakes.
