scoring and standings problem

Just wanted mention that I have noticed some issues with the scoring on several occasions where the current standings divert back to 2 days previous and jump back and forth between the two. In addition, while I am on the live standings page, the stats jump around from including all of the games to only including one or two games. This has been happening for a while, occasionally but for some reason it has been more existent recently and today its all over the place, especially in the ultimate. I know its not a big deal since it always seems to fix itself overnight. I just wanted to bring it up so that these last few weeks are accurate as we are following the live standings, more and more. Thanks!

I agree 100%. Yesterday at one point in the live overall scoring I was credited with 1117 strikeouts. But on the league live scoring page I had 1110. The 1110 is the correct number, I checked the standings from the previous day and from the team stats page and it was 1110. So where are these 7 K's coming from?? I think someone would seriously be upset if they were watching the live overall scoring page and thought they were going to finish a certain spot and then, oh wait, the next day you're in a totally different spot.
Also, on just the regular live scoring page, often stats wont show up when loading, you'll have to refresh from them to appear and pitching stats will appear, disappear and then reappear.
Could also the time that standings update time on Sunday be changed so Sundays stats are included. When it updates early Monday morning, you're looking at Saturdays stats. So to get the correct standings, you have to use live scoring which isnt nearly as clean as the standings page.
Long story short, send the I.T. guys on the live scoring this offseason.

When you see numbers that are higher than they should be, I'm guessing those are raw stats and when they're finished a with adjustment you will see the correct stats.
My example, in my team's season fantasy stats I show 1250 strikeouts but in the official standing I'm showing just 1249.
The extra K came from Ryan Raburn who is on my team but is on the bench not to mention he's not going to have his pitching stats count as he's one of my hitters.
It's possible your extra 7 Ks are from bench players.
Cheers!

In the Ultimate Auction league, I see that the previous stats, before today's numbers, do not match the standings. For instance, my team came into today with 68 wins. My team has 2 wins today. The standings page shows I had 68 wins, but the previous stats in live scoring show I had only 66 wins + today's 2 wins, it shows a total of 68 wins. It should be 70 wins.
Making a note, to see how it turns out tomorrow.... but as I said, this happens in at least one league, every night.

You have to keep in mind that the feed that fuels the live standings and the feed that feeds the overnight run are two completely different entities.
Often a stringer will make a mistake, but there isn't time to correct it until the end of the game.
The live feed is unofficial. It hasn't been checked and cross-checked then signed off on like the official feed is.

My extra 7 Ks that I have on the live overall draft champions scoring page have been there since at least Friday night, the first time I noticed it. When I check the regular overall standings it doesnt have the 7 extra K's. I guess for me its not a huge deal because I noticed it. If I hadnt, then at the end of the season I would have thought I finished in the spot the live scoring shows,not 50 pts lower than I should be.
If its just one pitchers stats that are screwed up, that would mean we probably have 100 wrong scores on the live scoring page.

I don't know for sure, but it seems like Live Scoring needs to be fleshed through with the official stat feed periodically to clear out the real-time errors.
