And, when you have a question in a game, look it up.

Sure, it's a lot easier to just get the answer here -- but you will learn a lot more about that question if you look it up AND you will find other things you didn't know.
This rinse/repeat approach is guaranteed to work.
First year? You should have one or more situations from every single game (if not more) where you are sent diving into the rules/case books.
Find the answers; learn from your mistakes and those of your partners/crew.
