NFFC Post-Season Challenge???

Greg, can remind us of the prizes for each price level. I also seem to remember a $250 contest last year, but it was canceled. Will that be offered this year?

Glenn They are on the front page of their web site. Last year we had levels of $10,000 for the $120 contest, $5,000 for the $60 contest and $2,500 for the $30 contest. Those were based on 130 teams for each level and a 75% payout. We didn't get to 130 teams for all of those levels so the payout percentage was higher, like 90% for the $120 contest. We're still talking it through but that's the concept for now.

We won't try the $250 contest this year. We had less than a dozen teams last year when we finally cancelled it and it just makes sense to go with these three price levels and not put our risk too far out there. This is really a fun contest that allows you guys to make some money and keeps people on our message boards for a few more weeks, but financially it doesn't do a whole lot. So the risk needs to be less.

Hopefully that makes sense. But I agree with the others, it's a fun, fun contest with a different twist thanks to the multiple scoring factor.

Thanks Greg. This is a fun one! And believe me they pay their prizes and the checks do not bounce.

I'm glad I've been logging on lately, or I would have forgotten about this contest. I'm signed up and paid. Ready to go.

get the following when you try and pick a team...

Server Error in '/' Application.

Runtime Error

Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine.

Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on remote machines, please create a <customErrors> tag within a "web.config" configuration file located in the root directory of the current web application. This <customErrors> tag should then have its "mode" attribute set to "Off".


<!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->

<configuration>
<system.web>
<customErrors mode="Off"/>
</system.web>
</configuration>

Notes: The current error page you are seeing can be replaced by a custom error page by modifying the "defaultRedirect" attribute of the application's <customErrors> configuration tag to point to a custom error page URL.


<!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->

<configuration>
<system.web>
<customErrors mode="RemoteOnly" defaultRedirect="mycustompage.htm"/>
</system.web>
</configuration>

I'm sure they are just starting to load in the NFL rosters today and should have the teams ready soon enough. I'll reach out to them for an update and post here. Thanks.
