I'm shocked at the turnout for the RX's NFL Contest

[Efuldrew]

I was so shocked too!

why would you be shocked. the forum is a shell of what it used to be in terms of visitation and interest.

Probably because you post less.

Thank God

You know you're a real shitbag of a poster when the head mod openly hates you. Haha.

Maybe I've already started.

I'm creating this either way.

I could either finish it first and then sell it as software as a service on an annual basis, and offer that same deal to every forum out there. Or the RX could pay a one time fee upfront and buy exclusive rights to it.

I'd probably make more money on in the long run doing the former, but am willing to discuss the latter.

Advantage to the rx beyond exclusivity would be that if they got on board during the early stages of development, I could customize it to integrate with this site specifically.

i think the dude who did the fantasy supercontest site posts all of his code for people to comment/improve on. I don't know anything about it, but might have a look...

Cool. Yeah I'm just now checking out the site, it appears to basically be pretty much exactly what I was putting together. Looks like he beat me to the punch on it.

I want to say I'm confident I could do it better but he did a damn good job.

That site is structured a little differently than I had mapped it out. It doesn't allow you to start "leagues", or your own individual contests. It lumps you in with all the other users.

So if you wanted to use this site to score a contest with 20 of your friends, your 20 people would be integrated in with all the thousands of other users. There would be no easy way to see "your league's" standings, who is currently in the money, etc.

I was thinking you could start a league, invite people (and it emails them), they join that GROUP, and then you have access to your joined groups when you log in; and standings display for your group only. Kinda like fantasy leagues.

I mean he still did a great job, but it doesn't really accomplish what I had envisioned.

Do the damn thing...

This contest is too rich for my blood. Takes money from last year's winning and runs...

haha, nah, I'll probably sign up Tuesday, last minute.
