I know, I know. We are ready to get these started too. I'm sick that we're not drafting yet.
I hate to put out timelines, but I think we'll open Registration on Thursday of this week. Every fantasy game operator licensed by the states has to have GEO locator and age verifiers in place. That has been our holdup now, to make sure we are in compliance on Day 1. That should be in place before the end of the week and we can start taking signups.
Unfortunately, we still have one other step within compliance before we can actually hold drafts and that will take a little extra time. We are hopeful that if all goes well we will be drafting the week of May 15th. So if you sign up for a $150 Draft Champions League, realize that it will be at least a week until we roll those out. But let's get 3-4 full leagues ready for that first day and make up for lost time. I know the demand is out there.
We really apologize for the delay, but it's a new ballgame in our industry with all of the different state laws and compliance requirements. This is a one-time delay as we install all of this to cover all of our sports. This should meet all of our requirements and allow us to satisfy the states. We could have taken signups before all of this was installed, but it would have been a risk to do that. All other game operators will have to do the same thing if they haven't already.
I will create a new thread with updates soon. Thanks all for your patience.
