This is funny. Same cast of characters once again trashing the WCOFF for absolutely no reason, meanwhile one of the most successful "hardcore" NFFCers has very quitely joined the WCOFF.

I am bashing it because of things I have heard from someone who played there (poor customer service, $$ due up front and no credit cards). That may not represent the whole picture, but I don't need a "tour guide" to tell me that the "entertainment fee" is a total scam!

If I am one of the people you were referring to, then yes, you are correct.

If not, then put me in that group.

There are some who will say a Ferrari F430 isn't that great great because you can get similar performance from a Z06 vette for less than 1/2 the price, it's not an every day car and it's too loud. These people would not be incorrect, technically, but they would clearly be missing the point.

Well just to throw my 2 cents in..I've been a member of both ***** and NFFC for 3 years, and it doesn't even come close. If you want to play for $200K vs a field of 800+ that's the only thing that ***** has going for it if you ask me. They ask for a deposit then won't give it back if you decide not to play after 5/31, they don't accept CC for payment, and they require payment by 7/5 to guarntee yourself a spot all of which are ridiculous, not to mention the events fees. I book a trip to vegas every year and this year I decided to still goto vegas but to let ***** keep my deposit as I will not be returning as I feel the events fee's and payout rates are just not worth it, and Don't even get me started on the customer service over there its like comparing going to Mcdonald's to a five star restaurant when dealing with Greg and Tom. I am signed up for 3 events at the NFFC and am a lifer! Thanks for doing a great job guys its much appreciated...

We know it wasn't SNAKE, NAG, because he doesn't do anything quiet.

He also doesn't fit the description of being a "successful" NFFCer.

Thats my feeling also,100% right on the money....Like i said I would be honest.I checked out WCRAP....I felt Like I was doing something wrong by trying to sign up and ask questions.It's like they didn't even want my money....Not a big fan of the 12 teamers anyway...I think most of us agree that the bigger the pot,the more people want to play.....Kind of like playing the powerball....Nobody buys a ticket untill it gets up to 200 million.....

Ok. Now for my 2 cents. The customer service at WACKOFF Sucks!!!

The event itself is great. The addreneline starts pumping as the draft nears. I truly enjoyed it each year I was in (2001-2004). I'm good friends with a couple of guys that I met because of that league. It really is a neat experience.

One of those friends have also decided to bail on the main event. They have also been threatened on the message board by the commish. You either see it their way or get the hell out. Your opinion is not valued or wanted. Extremely poor customer service.
