My familiy tragedy slowed the unveil a bit. I finished up the pricing of all the players last night. Doug Drinen and I will perform some tests today, but the plan is to release the contest this afternoon/night.
Search the FFAWhat happened to you David? I honestly didn't hear or know...hope all is OK.
It has to with the laws of those states. They need to update their laws to not call a contest like this gambling.DD any chance you can lift the ban on those of us in the antiquated states?
I'd consider moving just to compete in the FBG contests. The question is, how much of a diehard FF'er are you?It has to with the laws of those states. They need to update their laws to not call a contest like this gambling.DD any chance you can lift the ban on those of us in the antiquated states?
BUT there is no entry fee for this.....I really don't see how it would be looked at the same way.It has to with the laws of those states. They need to update their laws to not call a contest like this gambling.DD any chance you can lift the ban on those of us in the antiquated states?
OMG OMG OMG
No Farve eitherJust something I noticed, but it looks like you all didn't allow for things like the possibility of Shaun Hill in SF...but the larger angle is basically there are no back ups to grab, and I think that is important as over 50% of all starting NFL QBs never finish the season or play all 16 games as the starter.37 QBs to pick form 32 NFL teams...what was the rhyme or reason as to who got a back up on there...Warner for example is up there.
Good. I'm tired of Favre this and Favre that.No Farve eitherJust something I noticed, but it looks like you all didn't allow for things like the possibility of Shaun Hill in SF...but the larger angle is basically there are no back ups to grab, and I think that is important as over 50% of all starting NFL QBs never finish the season or play all 16 games as the starter.

We purposely did this. Because if we list all the backups, then some of them will be the starters when this thing starts (ie David Garrard cost $1 or $2 last year and was on 70% of the rosters). We did not list all the backups last year either, but did probably go a little deeper at QB. All told we have 340 players in this contest (and had 350 last year). Good luck everyone.No Farve eitherJust something I noticed, but it looks like you all didn't allow for things like the possibility of Shaun Hill in SF...but the larger angle is basically there are no back ups to grab, and I think that is important as over 50% of all starting NFL QBs never finish the season or play all 16 games as the starter.37 QBs to pick form 32 NFL teams...what was the rhyme or reason as to who got a back up on there...Warner for example is up there.

I will run those rosters and starters and scenarios at least 100 different ways, this is one of the most fun things to watch and monitor during the Preseason.We purposely did this.

I just subscribed. Where do I find the contest?
Thanks. One more way to devote time to something other than household responsibilities.I just subscribed. Where do I find the contest?Link in Post 12 of this thread -- here it is. You can also adjust your team, and track it during the season, at the bottom of your MyFBG page which can be accessed from the menu bar on the front page.
Not all players from all teams are in the contest, looks like Chris Brown isn't one of the RB options.trying to do the 'ole HOU RBBC thang and no Chrissy Brown??or did i just miss him?
