FanDuel Contest- Link for April 11 in post #516

[jemjey]

set it up for 15 or 20. missed out on the trial but i'll try tomorrow/thursday.

[JonDuke]

Thursday it is. For consistency, let's set in in stone that we'll do it every Thursday? I'll keep the posts to this thread, but will edit the title weekly and add the post number to where the current contest link is.

Congrats to everyone who "won" last night. If that had been a $10 - 50/50 game, those ranked 1-5 would've won $18.

I set up another free roll for tonight, just in case someone else needs to do a practice run before tomorrows live games. This one is set up for 15 people. So again, first come, first served. And it's free to enter.

I press refresh more than I'll admit, but it's fun to watch. So much can change so fast. Last night, as soon a Muzzin score that last goal, I knew Formulate jumped into 1st place. But because most in 3-6 had the same Toffoli/Kopitar/Quick combo that I did for their only remaining players, I knew I couldn't slide back any. It's super addictive, for sure.

Hooray! Got into this one and my homer goggles were on in full force. Monny, huds, gaudreau. Can you say all my eggs in one basket?

[Gary83]

Definitely interested.

[jemjey]

Is there a way to see other people's teams? or is that only after the games start?

[bomber317]

only after the games start.

I think on the mobile app, you can see the percentages of people that picked that player?

It did for the larger tournies, not sure for these smaller ones.

[JonDuke]

There's only 8 entries. We need 7 more to join or else the game gets auto cancelled.
3.5 hours left

[calgarygeologist]

I just found out that you are limited to picking 4 players from any given team.

[EldrickOnIce]

I'd play, but am a draftkings guy instead of fanduel

[CroFlames]

They should lift the swear filter for this thread only so we can chirp the #### out of each other.

[RT14]

Only 13 of 15 joined...lame. Why would they set it up like that though? Just run it with 13 teams. What's the big deal?

[JonDuke]

I've set up our first real money game.
$10 buy in. There's 12 spots available. (I don't want to run into situations like today where the games get cancelled due to not meeting the set # of entries, but think 12 is a good number for now)
First come, first served. Once interest goes up, so will the seats available.

$10 FanDuel Contest for March 12, 2015

Although there are many 50/50 options in the "lobby", the option is not given to you when it's a user created game (unless it's head to head).
The 3 choices I had were:
Winner takes all: $108
Top 3 win: $54, $32, $22
Top 3rd win: $48, $30, $18, $12
(all those $ figures are set by FanDuel)

So, I went with top 3rd to spread the love.
Cut off for entries is 5pm YYC time.
Good luck!

Not sure why it's set up that way. Not a huge fan of it either.

[calgarygeologist]

I would have dominated tonight.

Can you set a minimum number but not a maximum number of entries? If not, that sucks.

Nope. Has to be an exact number. Most of the contests are like that.

The homer goggles are paying off! In the money on all the ones I entered so far! Could be dominating if I'd picked up Russ or wides instead of Brodie.

[Ulrith]

It's on boys!

[Resolute 14]

Rofl. 10/12 slots filled when I started a lineup, table is full when I submitted.

Ahh well.

[handgroen]

bring it on you jabronies

[calgarygeologist]

Dang, I was just putting together my team for the final two spots but it filled up before I could finish. Can the number of entries be bumped up?

[bomber317]

yeah, the trick is to pick a bunch of randoms first. Submit your team, then take your time to edit your team afterwards.
