Re: NFBC Returning To The Stewart Hotel In New York In March

Excellent choice. Thought this was a great NYC venue. Can't beat the location for those of us who come in via Penn Station.

I don't even mind the bathroom location (good to stretch the legs), but maybe adding 5 more minutes to the in-draft breaks would be good, just for commuting time. :)

Re: Rate stats (BA, ERA, WHIP) in standings

When I looked into this earlier in the season, it needed to be fixed in the overall standings as well. Based solely on the number of ties I see in the BA column there now, I believe it's still an issue there too.

Re: Let's Compile The Latest Updates In This Thread

I disagree... the nice thing about the popup is that it doesn't disturb the work you've done on the lineup page. I'll frequently click on, say, a DL'd player to see his latest news update, while I'm in the middle of updating lineups. You can do that while not losing the work you've done on the lineu...

Re: Let's Compile The Latest Updates In This Thread

Greg, team, Amid all the nice usability enhancements, here's a change that needs to be made to firm up contest scoring: you need to calculate batting averages out further in your standings calcs. In my Main Event this AM (Main Event #463), you're showing two teams tied in the BA category at .2606. B...

Re: Let's Compile The Latest Updates In This Thread

A few notes from last night's FAAB research: - we used to have last7/L14/, month to date, any month splits on the free agent stats page. Can we get this back? Need as many ways to slice/dice the free agent pool as possible. - similarly, on FA pitchers list, Games Started is a key column to add back,...

Nice post, Mike. Similar feelings here too. Being in the overall chase has been a grind; exhausting at times. That's mostly because you and Silver have been so unstoppable. Keeping pace has been exhausting, and we finally cracked this week. I, too, am actually looking forward to watching the playoff...

Re: BASEBALL HQ FORECASTER CUSTOMER SERV

Michael, Yeah, I was very familiar with your case. There's no question that we screwed up there. I did mention the distributor change above, and the "How to Value" books got caught up in that transition. In retrospect, we should have stopped selling those for a couple of months while we went through...

I'm not 100% sure how they are handling the Forecaster - on the recent First Pitch Forum Arizona promotion, one of the inclusions was Ron Shandler's Baseball Forecaster. Either way, I'm willing to bet you won't notice the difference either way. Yup, the Forecaster continues on as normal. It's still...
