Hello all,

This is a very sad day.

After more than a decade together, it is time to announce the closure of this website, which has been up since 2012 (though I had been coding on my own for almost two years before that).

Throughout these years, I’ve grown, learned, and shared unforgettable moments with each of you. However, the time has come for me to say goodbye.

From the very beginning, I have worked with passion and dedication to prepare and mantain the game up and running. This site was not just a site, but a community of people sharing a common passion for basketball. I have had the opportunity to talk to some of you particularly and I have to say it was really nice to meet you. There were some cases of some people, even considering the game was free, sending me really nasty mails too, though smile . But well, these things happen.

I worked all of these years out of just my desire to offer a free site for playing basketball fantasy. But unfortunately, it has not been free for me and I had to pay the hosting all these years and work on my free time to solve any problems, because apart from my own mistakes on the site, I had to deal with updates on Facebook, Twitter, forum software and even machines upgrades.

The hosting costs keep going up, and my free time going down, so I couldn't just keep up with it. Even with some contributions some of you nicely made (thanks a lot for that), this was getting too difficult, and I did not want a site were things are just not getting done and get any of you frustrated.

I wanted to say sorry for any errors, or any unanswered mails, or delays fixing any bug. I just tried to do my best, but some times it might haven't been enough.

Finally, I would like to say thank you to all of you that have played and used this site, and make me smile or nicely giving me notice with some problems on the site. I do not want to give any specific names, but with some of you I have had even started a more personal relationship which I would like to keep. Anyway, any of you are free to send me some "hi" mail some time, if you like.

I hope you find another place to play and I really wish you all the best and I just encourage you to keep enjoying life and basketball.

Thank you!!!

Congratulations to everyone for the results in the second half of the season and for the entire season.
With special mention for Deejay, who consistently maintains top form. smile
But the competition in the TOP10 was even and at a high level.

By the way, does anyone know when the play off league will start?

Apparently the above teams (Celtics, Suns, Kings and Knicks) should be included in standings but did not get included in the scores from last night games (Dec. 8 ).

Best I can tell, the scores from 12/7 have still not been counted.

The above scores should complete the regular season scores during the tournament.

The 12/9 game, per ADMIN note of 11/27, would not count in our standings

Hello all,

As I am sure most of you noted, the forum stopped working.
It has been really tough to bring it up again and I have taken advantage of this problem to upgrade the forum to a newer version, so there might be some issues on the following weeks, and there are already some known bugs I am trying to fix.

Sorry for the inconveniences.

Best regards.

Dear Admin, dear all,

first, happy new season! I'm pumped!
what's with this new In-Tournament 'round Christmas? Is it just big money for TV and broadcasters? Will there be other impact from it? I don't really get it ...

secondly, why do pre-season-games affect the AVERAGE (fantasy points) of the players? Now, mostly all rookies will have an average they can't reach consistently, and they aren't cheap either, so nobody will really take them in their roster from the beginning.
And that's a pity! No?
It is good for the star-players, because they basically don't play much, sure, but... hm

Maybe there's an idea behind and I don't get it, or it's just the game how's it supposed to be? I'm curious.
Please let me know :-)

cheers,
quasime

2022/23 Playoffs are already available, though be careful as the schedule is not confirmed yet as they are playing the play-in tournament.

Note that the slot to make your team is very short this year so you might want to start building your team or even completely build it without counting on the matchups with latest teams coming from the play-in (two spots missing).

Also note there are still some problems, especially regarding this forum. Please do not post anything with emojis or images. Sorry for that.

Enjoy!!!

Hello all,

For unknown reasons, Twitter has suspended the access of this site to their API, so login through Twitter can not used until further notice.

I have opened a support ticket so they can give me more information on this, but for the moment, this feature is no longer supported.

Sorry for the inconveniences.

Best regards.

Hello all,

The 2nd half of the season 2022/23 is finished. Another clash between two giants, Patrick Landolt with his team Acte 2 and deejay with his team DJ -1.

Finally Patrick got away with it and is the winner, both in points and money!! Nicely done, Patrick!!! Hope somebody can kick your ass for the playoffs, the party will not last forever!

Thanks to everybody for playing.
Keep it up for the playoffs!!!

Hello everybody,

The hosting service decided to update the software on the servers and that has caused a lot of issues in the game. They just gave me the option to keep the old version by paying a lot more.

I have kept this game running for a long time for free but I am loosing money (not to mention the time dedicated to improve and solve issues). So the idea of paying even more is just out of the table.

So I will try to fix everything, but it might take time, as some features (as this forum) depend on third party libraries which in some cases, are not even prepared for that software version.

I would like to ask you for some patience, I am really sorry for all the issues.

Regards.

My fantasy profile page is stuck on last nights date, which gives a different time that the games go live.smile

The screen shot was taken today, just a few seconds ago…..and it’s the 14th

Luckily this didn’t jam me up cause I already mad the moves I had to make but what if iI didn’t know better I would have thought that I har more time then I did?!? This has happened to me before, has an anyone else experience this or is it just me?

Glitches happened and honestly, I rarely have any complaints, system admin are pretty responsive with adjusting things when necessary but the last time I had trouble proving that this was a problem and if it impacts my team and there’s no acknowledgement that there a problem then that sucks for me and no one I’m competing against would give a shit.

Again, overall no complaints, love competing every year but could you take a look at this please🙏🏾 Thx
