Today I received a $180 check from the FFOC enclosed with a letter stating the following:
"Dear Glenn,
As you're likely aware in light of our prior notifications on www.ffoc.com, Poised to Stomp Sports, Inc. was forced to make the regrettable decision to shut down its game for the upcoming 2010 season. While it has been a privilege to operate our leagues over the past two seasons, we were simply unable to survive the economic climate.
Prior to closing our doors, we have done our best to reward all of the previous winners, including, for example, paying the $180.00 cash prize to the 136 T2 league winners who opted to take a 2010 Tier 3 entry in lieu of monetary consideration. These payments are presently being processed. To those of you who anticipated free entrees for the 2010 season, the lack of a 2010 season will preclude the fulfillment of your expectation. We apologize for any disappointment. We too are dispirited by this result and our inability to continue our operations.
We want to thank all of you who have played in our leagues, and hope that we offered some excitement over the past two seasons. Thanks for all your kind words and support, and best of luck in all of your fantasy endeavors.
Sincerely,
Poised to Stomp Sports, Inc."
I'm pleasantly surprised to have received the check, but disappointed that no compensation will be made for the free teams I won.
There's no reason to speculate any further. I am now putting this behind me and moving on.
Glenn Thanks for the update Glenn. So you were paid for the one league you had a chance to roll over for a free entry or take the cash but not the other free entries, correct? And this came from the law office you sent the certified letter to?
Again, thanks for the info and the update.
