Fantasy Premier League - An Apology

Dear Christoffer,

 

As you may already be aware, many fans trying to access Fantasy Premier League on Friday afternoon and Saturday morning experienced problems logging in or registering teams prior to the Gameweek 1 deadline.

 

While the demand reached unprecedented levels on Saturday morning, we fell short of the standards you expect from the world’s biggest fantasy football game and make no excuses for what was both a frustrating and disappointing experience ahead of the new season. For this we apologise unreservedly.

 

Our technical teams worked throughout the weekend to ensure the technical issue that led to the problems experienced by users was dealt with. Work also continues to improve the quality of your experience with additional steps taken in the game itself that enable you to:

 

1. Receive unlimited transfers

No points will be deducted for any transfers you make up to the Gameweek 2 deadline (11:30 BST on Saturday 20th August 2011). If you made multiple transfers earlier this week, you will not be penalised. If you had opted to play your wildcard, this will be restored to your account once the Gameweek 2 deadline passes.

 

2. Opt to start mini-league scoring at Gameweek 2

The option is available to all mini-league administrators to start the scoring from Gameweek 2. Go to ‘Leagues’ > ‘League name’ > ‘Administer’ > Select ‘Gameweek 2’ in ‘Scoring Starts’ drop-down menu and click ‘Update league details’.

 

3. Win a VIP trip to watch Man Utd v Chelsea

The manager of the team that accumulates the most points in Gameweeks 2, 3 & 4 will win a VIP trip for two to watch Man Utd v Chelsea on Sunday 18th September 2011 . The prize includes all transport, two nights’ accommodation, match tickets, pre-match hospitality and £250 spending money. If there is a tie between teams, the team with the fewest transfers between Gameweeks 2-4 will win the trip. In the event of a further tie, the winner will be selected at random.

 

4. Win a new monthly prize - iPad2

Each monthly winner of Fantasy Premier League 2011/12 will be able to choose between receiving an iPad2 or the current monthly prize (replica shirt, iPod nano & digital camera). The runner-up will then receive whichever prize is not claimed by the monthly winner.

 

Having monitored many of the comments that have been posted on message boards, via blogs, in forums and on social networks, we hope the following additional points will also help clarify some of the queries raised:

 

• Fantasy Premier League (FPL) is still run by ISM Fantasy Games. The FPL site was redesigned in order to incorporate new features and in order to maintain consistency with the next version of the Premier League's official site. The problems experienced on Saturday are not related to the new look nor are they the fault of ISM Fantasy Games.

• EA SPORTS sponsor the official match statistics across the Premier League website and were not involved in the rebuild of this season's Fantasy Premier League game nor responsible in any way for the issues suffered by users over the weekend.

• The login/registration system had to be upgraded during the summer - this service is delivered by a new third party provider and is the most significant change from previous seasons.

• The live updates will be functioning for Gameweek 2.

• All league standings will be updated after each points update as per previous seasons. The single update for Gameweek 1 was an isolated case.

• If you have problems logging in, please try resetting your password by entering your email address on this page: https://users.premierleague.com/PremierUser/login/reset_password.html You’ll be emailed a new password to use that you can change to something more memorable once youve logged in by visiting ‘My Account’.

Gode nyheter, og da er det bare å henge i for å vinne runde 2, 3 og 4. Men gjelder det for folk utenfor Storbritannia og?

Jeg klarer ikke å bytte på tv2 manager, fordi "banen" dekker over der jeg kjøper og selger. Noen løsninger?

Restart nettleseren din kan kanskje hjelpe?

5 bytter så langt

 

Godt det kom en uke til med free transfers.

 

Håper jeg har valgt noen gode forsvarere nå. Regner med at det blir noen mål fra dem iløpet av året.

 

Byttet alle på toppen. UT: Carroll (trodde ikke suarez ville starte), ballotelli (trodde han ville starte, dzeko var jo ikke så bra ifjor), random dude.

 

Inn: Suarez, aguero, zamora. De byttene gjorde angrepet omtrent 3 M dyrere, men mye bedre fremover

Han kommer vel inn etter hvert. Men må får noen mål, ellers kunne heller en av mine reserver blitt tellende.

[InsertNumLock]

Noen som kommer seg inn på fantasy?

[Anonym234]

The game is being updated.

 

The game is currently being updated. Please try again later when the updated scores / teams will be available.

Hva sa jeg? Kan banne på at Bent ikke får til noenting.

 

Det er jo vanlig at det er lukket for updates rett etter deadline, er det ikke?

[DJ_Dark]

Nja. I fjor var den vel stengt frem til kampstart etter hva jeg husker.

 

Greit med Suarez

Hehe, som regel er det jo ikke optimalt at man har spillere som kommer inn 20 minutt før slutt, men denne gangen ble det bra. Og jeg klager ikke
