glad its not just me having problems today. i went to feedback board and the mod board and it was a ghost town. i hate to always be the one complaining to the higher ups about the slowdowns.

I just realized that all the links in the Index thread are dead. How long has it been this way? I know JDR mentioned something a few days ago on the mod board, but I guess I didn't realize the impact until now. ARGH!!!!

any of you nerds play fanduel on a regular basis? I just started playing the $1 games for **** and giggles. damn, its stressful. all it does is make me angry about the players I picked that are sucking or the players I almost picked that are blowing up. On the flip side, it surely makes random games more interesting. I found myself rooting for Harden last night for the 1st time since the 2012 NBA finals. Any helpful tips?

I've played it a few times. Was kind of addictive.

I did a few NFL fanduels and won a little money, nothing too big though.

Never done an NBA one though.

Just watched the video of ISIS executing 21 Egyptians beheading them. So damn disturbing. If I didn't have kids Id consider joining the army.

Yeah, seems like it's down whenever I try to get on here. Might make an account over at HP if this keeps up.
