Fantrax is having another issue. Can't access team rosters at the moment.

cripes we may move sooner then later this is brutal....

Could be. The first problem I could understand. This one not so much. If you can not make moves to fill your starting roster out because Fantrax has a issue, it becomes unacceptable. Hopefully they resolve it very soon, like in the next couple of hours.

Thet aren't doing themselves any favors with that reply.

 

[HaroldSeattle]

Looks like the issue has been fixed. Yay.

 

[TREFF]

Hopefully the issue is tied to the stat fixing. But a little communication would great.."hey, were gonna shut this f'er down for an hour so we can get the stats onboard, be back soon"
That'd be awesome to see

Came here to post the same. Sent them an email telling them to work the bugs out when no one cares or pays attention to sports, so baseball season.

Auto reply telling me to sign up for premium? C'mon man, every rookie salesman knows to sell the sizzle not the steak.

I know you guys may have loyalty to them, but I think this is pretty unacceptable. I understand a slip up, but we've been without scoring for over a week now. What if someone was in one of those eliminator leagues like we had last year, where you ditch the lowest scoring team that week? You'd be fucked.

i was going to say ya get what ya pay for

then i remembered that you can pay on fantrax....

i would imagine the folks that do pay are mighty upset right now...

as much as i feel that the game day scoring's look isnt very pretty

it sure is a great site for a free dynasty league

seriously all the things that the commish can do and fix and the history etc etc

how can ya not like that for free..

lets hope they get their act back together

i have a good feeling that they will

and we can blame this blip on "2020" as we all know its 1 F'';.'d up year

hell im 3-7 in my main league and i have never missed the playoffs in its 10 year existance again F;'''ing 2020

I looked and just so everyone knows. Sleeper can do everything Fantrax does plus a few others. With all the troubles I believe this is something that needs to be seriously discussed in the offseason and maybe moved up to in season discussion if Fantrax still doesn't have its act together by say next week.

 

[obxyankeefan]

I have never been in a league on Sleeper and do not know much about them, but the scoring system does allow for FG yards. It also has things we could add like Special teams stats. IDK if a kick return gets you any points in our league without looking it up, but they also have fumbles caused and recovered by ST. Return yards by ST. and a few others.

A couple good things about sleeper I noticed:
- seem to genuinely listen to feedback and make upgrades when needed
- great app, easy to use (can get more detail on site if that's what you're looking for)

Would have definitely still been in a league there if the jack holes didn't take my commish duties from me (I did not know league mates outside of the sleeper app), and swore i wouldn't join another unless I knew some folks, and I'll say y'all are close enough there!

Agree with the sentiment, this isn't acceptable and has lasted for over a wk now, I'd be willing to migrate this over to sleeper in the offseason if it doesn't get resolved before wk 7 Thursday night game

Agree on sleeper seeming to listen to improvement requests and constantly trying to get better.

But I hate their app in it's current state - maybe I need to just give the site a chance though

• Sleeper also allows for 3-way trades.
• It also sends a weekly report automatically.

Like I mentioned quite a few posts ago, there are a bunch of old guys in our league and Sleeper took some getting used to. Especially since it does not work like Yahoo or ESPN. But since it is designed to work more as a phone app, most owners seem to have gotten comfortable using it since they don't have to get on their computer.

I don't mind Fantrax, but I do wish Fantrax would change the way you can filter on players.
When you pull up a player on Sleeper, it lists where he ranks in standard, PPR and overall.

But I want to make clear that my suggestion to move to Sleeper has nothing to do with OBX as a commish. He will always be Obi-Wan.

So you all know, I am not a fan of Fantrax.

That said, I would be even more against moving to a new site.

I just manage too many teams. I already have teams on Y!, ESPN, CBS and I have baseball and basketball teams on Fantrax. So even if this league moves, I will still have Fantrax to deal with, and in sports where the interface is an even greater issue for me.

I really don’t want to add yet another site to the list.
