Re: NFBC Random Slot Generator BLOWS

There's no problem here. I like getting my draft slot a week prior. The MtM ironhead KDS is alright for a change of pace - What I DON'T like is having to dump my gear in a spot and then having to move it again... Agreed. I also like that each of the 34 Main Event leagues, whether online or live, is...

Re: Slow pokes and Draft Champion Leagues

Any thought to lessening the clock to 2 hours per pick from rounds 30-50? I’m sure the “bleeding hearts” would view this as a threat to their existence :twisted: I have no idea if it can be programmed, but this is an excellent suggestion by Mark. The NFL does something similar with their annual dra...

In reference to this thread about Cutline optimal scoring, scoring changes, and deadlines( http://nfbcforums.stats.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=19694&p=201891#p201896 ), will the new software allow for more fair application of official scoring changes than when the official scoring change happens to tak...

Re: New ADP Page And Resources Links Are Now Available

Looks good, Greg. Thanks. Please confirm: does the ADP calendar refer to the date the draft started or the date it finished? Obviously this would only apply to slow drafts. I had this wrong on the slow drafts. It is the finished date of drafts. So all drafts that end Dec. 18th to Jan. 4th is that r...

Re: SportsHub Technologies Acquires MFL10s

In the last week we've had two announcements that hopefully will help all players. First, we are reporting 1099s in 2017 that deduct ALL of your entry fees from all of our contests from your prize winnings and reporting that to the IRS. For hundreds of owners, this will result in no 1099 for 2017. ...

Re: What Do You Remember From Your First NFBC Experience?

How about the Pete Rose autographed balls that were used to get many of us (myself included) to play the first year? No joke, back in 2004 that was a major selling point. I have always wondered how Greg wound up with dozens of those things, yet he found a way to eventually unload all of them. Ten ye...

Re: 2018 NFBC Live Events Signup List

Maybe someone on the West Coast can verify what they see on their registration page. In any event, seems to be a programming error on the hour difference (probably based on your location, or possibly Daylight/Standard time). The Diamond Auction time needs to be corrected -- either on the message boa...

Now, just for clarity, anything you leave on Account is still taxable. We will report your complete winnings to the IRS whether you leave it on account or not. These are still taxable winnings according to the IRS and even rolling them over to next year's contests isn't a shield from the IRS. We'll...
