I am pretty sure whoever told you the weird stuff at FanDuel does not know what they are talking about. They are partner with a lot of sites so that person was likely confused.
They have added $35K to our subscriber contest for qualifying people that bought through our link:

If you never played before, you deposit $20 into FanDuel through the link and qualify.
If you did the FBG deal in 2012, then you need to reload with $100 through the link.
Whoa. So if I get my Footballguys Insider subscription through FanDuel I'm now competing for $70,000 worth of prizes in the Footballguys Subscriber Contest?
That's right. FanDuel has added an extra $35,000 to the Footballguys Subscriber Contest this year. But the only way you can win some of that extra scratch is to get your Insider subscription through FanDuel. FanDuel will pay their extra $35,000 in cash prizes out to the top 150 finishers in the Footballguys Subscriber Contest who got an Insider subscription through FanDuel this year. That means if you come in first place and you got your 2013 Footballguys Insider subscription via FanDuel, you not only win $20,000 from us, you win another $20,000 from FanDuel as well. Now that's pretty awesome.
David - My advice would be to tighten up what's going on here. What happens if 1st isn't a fanduel elibible. Does the $20k not get paid or does it roll down to the first fanduel eligible entry who might have finished in 5th place. Obviously all 150 fbg prize winners aren't going to be Fanduel eligible, so what happens to the extra Fanduel prize monies after roll downs? Even if the fanduel prizes roll down past 150 to 250, I doubt you'll have 150 Fanduel people in the final 250 so there will be extra funds not accounted for.
You've pretty much guaranteed that Fanduel is paying an addtional $35k so you should probably figure out how it will be dispersed. If the payout structure is really just doubling any FBG prizes up to $35k, then it should be stated that way.
I think it's explained in the rules clearly. FanDuel will also pay their top 150 spots. Only the top 250 total spots advance, so it's possible that FanDuel will already be awarding some of their lower winners before the final shootout based on where they finished in the last week they were cut.
What Happens if 1st isn't FanDuel eligible? They win our $20K top prize just as before. FanDuel's $20K goes to the top qualifying team that bought through them.
Think of it like this:
Leaderboard:
team 1 - Not eligible - Wins from FBG:
$20,000 + lifetime subscription to Footballguys.com + 2013 FPC entry + Titlecraft Trophy. Wins from FanDuel: $0
team 2 - Eligible - Wins from FBG:
$4,000 + FPC 3-Pack + 3-year subscription to Footballguys.com. Wins from FanDuel: $20,000 + lifetime subscription to Footballguys.com + 2013 FPC entry + Titlecraft Trophy
team 3 - Eligible - Wins from FBG:
$2,000 + FPC 3-Pack + 3-year subscription to Footballguys.com. Wins from FanDuel: $4,000 + FPC 3-Pack + 3-year subscription to Footballguys.com
etc...
and so on
