New Site is Down
Re: New Site is Down
I get the same problems sometimes when trying to enter contests.
It only happens on this site when I am told that I have too many redirections or need to clear cookies.
Can the site be strengthened or whatever it is called, to avoid this?

Re: New Site is Down
That is not working, and how many drafters are watching the message boards (on the old site) to make that fix. My wife's pc has never even visited the NFBC site (thank God) and it still doesn't connect.

Here you go:
On windows, through the Start menu - use the Search to find CMD - open that
type ipconfig /flushdns
On a mac:
Search for terminal in the search bar at top - open
type ipconfig /flushdns
That will flush out our old cache that caused the problem and link you to the site. The draft rooms are working and running as is. That has never been the problem. But pointing everyone to the right URL is now the problem. Flush out the old cache and you will be good to go for current drafts and back on the site.
Thanks all and we are VERY SORRY for this mishap. Can't have it happen again. Thanks and good luck.
Email me at [email protected] if you need further help.
Problem is only a small percentage of people are accessing this site for updates
Re: New Site is Down
Nothing is working for me either. Flushed DNS, rebooted, flushed again, tried different browsers. Nada.

The other problem is that when folks type into the site, it should work..... without a 'fix'.

Re: New Site is Down
I did all the steps and can get on the site then get to my team page but can't enter drafts. Also what about phones?

Re: New Site is Down
Me neither. And my two friends can't get in either. One is a new player that we got in this year. Neither even knows how to get to the message boards, and then we get a "fix" for OUR computers on those message boards that doesn't work? I understand and I will still promote the NFBC as the best thing going, but this is a bit much right now. Thankfully I'm not in a live draft right now.
Re: New Site is Down
I can not get in on laptop, or Phone... cleared cache, flushed DNS.. .still no dice! I as able to click on the link on the email sent to me with pick ad get in to adjust my que.... but can not get back in
Re: New Site is Down
I tried the ipconfig and flush dns in the terminal, reboot, etc and still can't get access.
Please help.

Re: New Site is Down
I'm in 3 drafts and can't get into any of them. Tried Greg's suggestion, tried different browsers, cleared cache in browsers. Nothing. I'm a big fan of Greg, Tom and NFBC. IT department not so much.

Re: New Site is Down
Yeah, it's less than ideal. For some people it might take until the Internet provider flushes out the cache over night to fix this problem. I'm searching for one final step to help.

Email me if I can help at all with an upcoming pick or if you want to get on the phone to make a pick. Tom, Darik and I are here to help and we thought this step would work. It is working for some, but for others it's not clearing out that old cache. If we have to pause your draft we will. Sorry everyone.

Re: New Site is Down
is the DC Express set for tonight going to run?
Re: New Site is Down
Have you notified all the new players that have never heard of or signed up for the message boards? We could be in for a long ordeal in our drafts. And maybe a phone call or text would be best because we all know they don't get emails from the NFBC. Just a little joke to lighten the mood

Re: New Site is Down
Pause my draft, please.
Re: New Site is Down
Greg or Tom,
I can't get into either of my 2 drafts.
I don't mind using my iPhone 6 to draft but I can't access the website on the iPhone 6 either.
Any suggestions for phone access ??

Re: New Site is Down
For the integrity of the contests, I think all drafts should be paused or resumed tomorrow when everyones browsers will allow them to enter. Trying to run them now and then roll back is just asking for all sorts of issues.
Re: New Site is Down
Safari was working briefly for me but even that isn't an option now.
Re: New Site is Down
Followed steps, still no access. I had set auto through round 39 of current draft which I believe is now in round 40. Have no idea what players were taken the last 2 rounds.
