66% is no way to treat loyal peopleSo you knew the true payout percentage, took offense that your loyalty was not being acknowledged, and STILL joined the Post-Season Contest???

Greg, you should run all of you events with a 103% payback. Remember, this isn't a business -- it's all about loyalty.

[/QUOTE]Lou had no idea what the % was until I pointed it out to him this morning in the middle of a conversation after the revised payout structure was posted based on 164 entrants.

Out of curiousity, besides this one, how many contests would you join in the future knowing they pay 66%?

[/QUOTE]Pretty much what I was going to say. For me (and many others here), this is entertainment. When you include the fun factor, the payout is more than reasonable.

[/QUOTE]Good answers, guys. Greg would be proud. And you keep me posted when you do join that contest which provides all the "fun, challenge and entertainment" that will make you look past a 66% or so payout.

[/QUOTE]This was a post by a person with 4 total AFTER the season was over.
And yes, their URL DOES lead back to a Glenn chum.
Which BTW-you ignored the thread below, stating how GOOD the website is.
Which is why I won't dlete either thread.


Glenn-You can come back if you'd like, but please understand that I do know what you are.
You are a internet blowhard that types like a badass, along with Godon Gekko.
And when faced with the chance to tell me wht you thought.
Each of you showed the true lack of character you have. I even hung around until the room was nice and clear waiting for you two.

And you said nothing.

Which shows who you are.

Missed on Chad, and others. That's the point, be aggressive in what you think, otherwise you end up with a Website that does NOTHING but post lame/bland rankings.

But then again, what would there be to talk about? You couldn't crack on me of I ranked Chad at 20+
But I'll always go with what I see as potentiual, and don't forget the compliment you gave after the NFFC Draft.
Something to the effect of me sticking with my rankings for the most part wasn't it??

911fantasy.com Playoff game.

Using Greg in all your replies is getting very old and pathetic. My answer had nothing to do with him. This isn't the only game I play and many have less than 66%.

Why is what the operator makes so important to you?

Curious, what do you do for a living?
