Just made my picks without a single hiccup. Just gotta realize the site is going to be slow moments after qualifying because everyone is going on to make picks.

Got 258 last week and thought it was horrible because I was outside the top 1000. Then I looked at the scores and while I didn’t do the best, there are just so many people playing that were all within like 5 points of each other.

Since there is a throw away round again, I’m going out in a limb this round!

Kind of weird, but pulpmxfantasy.com on my laptop freezes up on race day. If I go directly to pulpmxfantasy.com/dashboard, loads up no problems. Also, I have less problems with speed if I make picks from my phone on google app for some reason.

I hadnt heard that either the only thing i heard was them saying in the podcast before the season started that there wouldn't be, so if they changed it, they should try to make sure people know.

Their website is pissing me off.

Pretty much have to pick a team Wednesday. Anytime Saturday and even Sunday to check results the site is lagging and not losing for me.

I just want to log on and check my score from the previous night and no luck. They must have way too many users? MotoFantasy site is working perfectly.

You can calculate your score using these pics they are on the dash board

All of the "expert" picks for Harrison came back to bite me, baaaaaaad. 285 last week to 173 this week. Not good!

Maybe Marx shouldn't go to the race next week so he can make sure the site is up and running since thousands of folks have spent $35 or more to participate and now that they are taking that much $$$ from so many people they kinda need to be sure the site is working properly or paid membership may go down.

Instead of using an excuse that he's driving back home from Glendale (stating on Twitter today Sunday that scores will be avail when he gets home), Marx prob may consider staying home next weekend and keeping the site up?

Actually though everyone is so hooked on this stuff they can get away with the site not working as it should and most everyone will renew next year anyway.

I’ve missed out on so many things I was supposed to do over the last year of my life because of this website that I’m not gonna apologize for scores being delayed today because I went to the race and tried to enjoy myself for once. I still had my computer at the race and was on it quite a bit making sure people could pick teams etc., but yes, scores will be available later after I get home.

It's ok , everyone is addicted and 90% will still be there plus newcomers will signup, don't worry. Thanks for making the most of limited resources.

I wish there was a drop round after last night. Probably my worst weekend of fantasy ever.

sounds like he's getting burnt out with it all. Cant blame him, it turned into a 24/7 on call situation.

No worries i just wanted to be sure if there was or wasn't

Marx, is the site host on AWS or Azure so that it can auto scale on the weekend and sale down Sunday to save costs?
I am more of a VMware guy than website guy, just curious.

I had no issues besides my poor choices in 250.
