Maxman Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Our FanDuel league for week eight is here. For those that haven’t played with us before, this is a one week fantasy football league. When you enter you pick a lineup and compete against other people from JetNation. Click here to enter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maxman Posted October 31, 2015 Author Share Posted October 31, 2015 42 entries on Saturday morning. Eek. I didn't promote it at all. It isn't even in the NFL Forum. I have several messages into Fan Duel and they haven't responded. So I don't want to put our name on this if they are going to open it up. I need two things from them: 1) Them to give us the league on Monday like they said. I can't keep promoting this on Friday and having us get to 250 - 350 and then they open it up. 2) Need to know what we need to do to keep this a JN only league. I would like to get this on Monday, have it be a 300 person league and then we would be good to go. They just don't respond this year at all. I have reached out to them a lot this year by phone and email. Kind of isn't worth the effort involved to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captainawesome1987 Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 I'm sure they are overtaxed by limited staffing for how large they have grown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captainawesome1987 Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 Okay, got my 5 teams in.Had a bit of trouble not putting Smith and Forsett on every one of them though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pac Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 got excited when it wasn't open at 12:47 and started putting in more lineups.. at 12:50 it was open and it quickly shot up to near 300 so I cancelled a bunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bealeb319 Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 the worst part about it being open to public is we get stuck with some of these sharks on the forum because they join just to keep beating us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prime21 Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 How do they even find an open league so quickly? I would imagine there quite a few groups that get opened up in the final 10 minutes. How do they fill up so dam quickly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxman Posted November 1, 2015 Author Share Posted November 1, 2015 I do think they opened the league, looks like we have 500 people in it. I am glad that I didn't promote it. Seems like we were at 175 through JetNation with no promotion. And then they filled it at the last minute. I will try to get us a 250 person league next week that we fill on our own.

prime21 Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Cant be worse than debating Eli or Brees with one of my line ups AND OBJ and then deciding I would rather have Fitz and Kennan Allen. Yup! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prime21 Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 Can anyone explain the IRS taxing on winnings? I started with 25 bucks in week 1 and now by week 8 I have about $350. However if I understand it correctly I have won over 600 bucks because it doesn't really count what I spent/lost. I haven't tried withdrawing any money but will Fanduel report this to the IRS anyway or is it if I try withdrawing anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoJoTownsell1 Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Thanks again Maxman and Jetnation. I can't explain my hot streak, but at least I am keeping some of the winnings in-house. Is there any way for me to throw jetnation a little donation? Was thinking about buying some jetnation gear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
