The month of July was spent mostly working on rebuilding the draft war room. The code that drives the draft war room on the main website is extremely old and outdated, and as I've mentioned before, one of the primary driving factors of the UI rewrite is to bring the website front-end code up to a modern framework. The war room is one of the most complicated areas (up there with the game center) and it's going to take a bit of time to get right.

However, I also wanted to make sure there was some updates to the preview site, so I've released a few bug fixes/enhancements. Here is the complete list:


  • Game center players now to link to their player card

  • Slidebar now goes completely away once it is empty

  • Owner cards now show more details

  • Player progress now show the sign for both plus and minus

  • Fixed an issue where the players of the week were failing to build properly

  • Fixed a few issues where notifications were becoming disconnected



August will likely continue with similar results, so I'll try to be sure there are some additional interface fixes coming in September.

A huge shoutout to the product committee who has helped identify the most important issues that need to be addressed!

Thanks again to everyone for your patience and feedback!

Still unusable for me as screen constantly refreshes. For example, I click on a owner and hit details and the owners card opens for 1 second before the screen refreshes and the owner card disappears.

For example, I can't find the war room or the draft menu in the Football Fan League draft in the desktop version. Is this button (still) missing?

Which page are you on that's constantly refreshing? Or is it not limited to a single (or a few) pages?

It's everywhere....it constantly jumps back to the main league page (standings). I literally can't do anything because it jumps back in 1-2 seconds.

I will try again next month

As of right now, the main page on the new site rhythmically refreshes every 10 seconds.

It would appear to be when the ads reload, at least for me. I don't know if it's different if the ads have been removed.

It's not the ads, it's the league awards. When it fails it tries to restart it. I'm not sure why it's failing, I had fixed something but apparently it introduced something worse ... I'll try to hotfix it instead of waiting until next month, if I can figure out why it's doing that quickly.
