Switching teams when viewing Live Scoring

rkulaski · Post by **rkulaski** » Sat Aug 07, 2010 4:42 am

When I'm viewing live scoring for Team A and then I want to switch and see live scoring for Team B, I'm unable to do so. I have to click on some other link like rosters/set lineup or standings. Then I can switch teams, then I click again on live scoring. Does anyone else have this problem of not being able to simply switch from one team to another when viewing live scoring?

I'm using google chrome as my browser.

Rich, same thing for me. That is the way it has been all year. I haven't figured out how to simply switch from team to team either, so I do as you and just go to a different page on the website (roster/setup, for example).

Maybe there is a simpler way to do this that you or I do not know about.

Same here.

I have 5 teams and I simple open 5 different windows. You can then very easily jump from league to league. It may take a few minutes to open the 5 windows and get to the live scoring, but once this is complete it's quite easy to jump from league to league.

I hope this helps....

Supposedly a live scoring toggle was real close to being completed a month or so ago.

For those of us with multiple teams in the NFBC (I have nine), it would be an enormous time savings.

Greg, please give us a status update on this.

Thanks,

Glenn

This is the one item that was not completed for us this year and I apologize. I know it is a VERY BIG sore spot for some of our customers. Obviously we want owners to have multiple teams in our contest and if we don't offer this next year it will convince folks not to do multiple teams. I get it. I understand that.

The tool was built and has not worked. I've requested this many times, but I am convinced that we can get this done in 2011. I know, that doesn't help anyone now and I'll see if there is still any chance that someone can fix this. We can toggle in so many different places on this site, that I'm not sure why this one hasn't worked. I apologize, but I promise this is the one item still on my To-Do list for IT.

Thanks for following up on this, Greg.

It never did occur to me to open multiple windows. Nice suggestion for the time being and I will give that a go.

That's what confuses me Greg. The fact that we can toggle on the FAAB pages, the standings, the team stats, everywhere....except the live scoring.

Now I'm not a programmer and I won't pretend to be, but to the layman it would seem that if they can do it for certain pages, they should be able to do it for all.

If there's any way to get this done this year, it would be great. With the season coming to an end and having multiple teams in the hunt, it would just make things a helluva lot more fun if it were easier each night to check live scoring.

If not, I'll just bank on next year.

New function tonight. Allows you to switch your teams on the live scoring page. On the right hand side of the page just above the 'League Ranks' scoreboard is a drop-down menu that lets you switch teams.

The only team in the drop-down box on mine is my team. I'm assuming some of you can view the other teams in your league?

Will the ability to sort the standings for each category in REAL TIME ever be implemented?

If you want to see the live scoring of other teams in your league, click on the team name in the "League Ranks' box just below the drop down menu.

Thanks Russ - being only that I have 1 Classic team this makes total sense!

Say, going to Wrigley by myself a week from Friday (08/20), you be in the neighborhood?

No, I am not some deranged loner either!

We had our first baby in June and this is my first "vacation" since March - wife is visting friends in the city and I thought I'd run to Wrigley for an afternoon.

Let me know if you have any interest.

Thanks,

Matt Anderson

Wow, I didn't even realize this went live today. GREAT NEWS!!!

I knew they were working on it and am VERY GLAD that you'll have this now for the stretch run. I thought it might unveil today, but I'm glad to hear it is there now. Enjoy.

We know that many of you folks have multiple NFBC teams and enjoying the results of each team every night should be key to us, as well as making the management of those rosters as easy as possible. This was one feature I was hoping we can add and I'm glad they got it done. Thanks for the push and enjoy the final results this season.

This is great news.

I'm a big "let's break out the laptop and check how my teams are doing" guy as I'm relaxing at night.

It's good to know that this will now be a lot easier.

Thanks Greg....good job.

Glenn It was great timing on your part yesterday to ask the question on the NFFC boards and I emailed John and he said it might be done by end of the day. I was happy and surprised to hear that and thought if we got it by end of this week it would be a good addition. But the timing worked and now we have this great piece in the system.

I think we have a nice system and we can add to it. We can also fine-tune our RULES to make all of our lives easier with the player pool. That's on me. So we keep building and even fixing and we go from there.
