Maxman Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Our FanDuel league for week ten 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. They have lowered the total # of seats at my request. This is a 300 person league, let's fill it up and make sure someone from JetNation wins the money.

aec4 Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Not to be a complainer, but why does Fanduel give us a % of winner at 16.67% while their regular contests are roughly 19%. I do see our payout rate is higher, with their rake quite low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do see our payout rate is higher, with their rake quite low. Didn't you just win free Jets tickets from JetNation? Stop complaining lol. I haven't looked at the stats. My understanding is they are paying out more than they are taking in. But I haven't compared this to what they do elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was great too, and no one sat in the 2 seats on either side of us and next to that was an NFL Fan Experience person. The 2905 payout out of 3000 collected is good. The typical rake is around 10%. They are around 3%. Typically they pay out more places (think they paid 100 out of 500 now it's 50 of 300), but if it's just JN people, I'm definitely playing...

TampaJet Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 The prize pool is down to $2905, so they did reduce it to make some profit from us. I guess we cant complain too much though...it beats having it opened up and having to score 150+ just to hit the money. Id rather take my chances for a top 50+ with a reasonable score.

Pac Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 I'd settle for close to filling it ourselves. Doesn't look good right now.. Only 85 entries. I may add 1 more for 7 but if it opens up and 200 are filled by the pros I may scale back to my favorite 2 or 3 lineups. I don't want to keep watching them dominate the prize money.

aec4 Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 I have 2 in and may enter more. If it opens up though I'll exit. I like the single entry contests. You play the best lineups and not pros who hedge bets and have lineups no sane person with a budget would play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prime21 Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 We are no longer able to enter any new entries on fanduel. Whatever you have entered already is fine but you cannot enter anything new or edit it. Dam. Hello New York FanDuel Fans, As you have no doubt seen, earlier this week the New York Attorney General sent us a cease and desist letter regarding play on FanDuel contests from New York. We want to take this opportunity to update you all on the situation – and make you aware of some changes that are going into effect. FanDuel is one of the largest tech startups in New York, employs hundreds of people in this state, and has been a source of entertainment for all of you over the last five years. We are honored to have helped build this community of fantasy players and will exhaust all legal options in our pursuit to continue to be a part of your lives. As such, it is with great disappointment that we will begin the process of limiting access to users located in New York while we pursue the opportunity to be heard in Court. For now that means the following: – The full slate of this weekend’s contests across all sports will run as scheduled. – However, we will stop allowing new deposits on the site, from New York, as of today. – All users in New York can and will be able to continue to withdraw their money as always. The situation is developing and we will continue to keep you all updated on any changes, while we pursue our day in court. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Integrity28 Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 I live out if NY, but pulled all of my money out the day of the NY AG ruling. I don't want my funds tied up with them while it's even remotely volatile. I had stopped playing s couple weeks ago anyway... When the JN games got compromised.

T0mShane Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 I'm loving how these Attorneys General are framing this as anything but an extortion attempt, as if they give a sh*t about the regular guy losing $100 gambling as long as they $51 bucks of the take.

Pac Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 Wait that says they won't take any more deposits - not anything about the money you already have in there. I wonder if you'll be able to use your bankroll in future weeks if you want? Regardless I think I'm just going to let my entries this week roll. Even if I lose them all I'm still up for the year. The extra $75 isn't going to make that much of a difference. If this is the last time for the year may as well go out guns blazing. I was never worried about being able to withdraw my money.. FD is backed by some heavy hitters that wouldn't want their names associated with what amounts to theft. I think it's only a matter of time before we're allowed to play again.

Gastineau Lives Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 One quarter of the entries is this straigthcashhomiez jerkoff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pac Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 One quarter of the entries is this straigthcashhomiez jerkoff. yeah but at least he's been around all year and posted on this site. he also gave me a lead on some good games (or is it leads on some good game?) a couple weeks ago when he didn't have to. I'd rather he win than random jerk offs scavenging our sh-t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captainawesome1987 Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 That's fine. My two major repeat players are going to have huge games today and I'm going to finish in the top 50 7 times because of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was ready to spill the beans on my favorite picks but then saw we can still edit lineups. If I don't place with a couple of my masterful lineups I'd be shocked.

T0mShane Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 I threw seven teams in with the Blaze of Glory mentality. I'm up on the year and was hoping to fill it with JNers. Doesn't look like we'll get there. I usually break even or a little better every week, so I don't mind the pros sneaking in too much, but I'll admit it was disheartening to be six points out of the money and still end up on 332nd place the last few weeks.

Pac Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 I thought he was a dude that just came here for the link. Is that someone else? He did find the game at the beginning of the year and is not a Jets fan.. but he also at least took the time to create a username, post a few times, and has PM'd a couple people as far as I can tell. The true FD trolls wouldn't do any of that. It's easier to lose to someone who is seemingly a cool enough guy and not a drone dumping hundreds of entries into various contests.
