Leperflesh posted:then we should rename it "football most wins contest" or at least "eliminator where nobody is eliminated" This fuckin' debate about nothing again. Look, the name "eliminator" is not about eliminating players it's about eliminating TEAMS. We're not picking players in pickem, we're not eliminating players in eliminator. You can't use the same team twice? So it's eliminated? From your choices? Eliminator. Is this revisionist history? Maybe. Do I care? I do not. This is what eliminator means now if it's not what eliminator always meant, we've always been at war with Eastasia etc. Write it down, refer to it later when you feel aggrieved about how the scoring works, take deep breaths and recognize that you're probably losing anyway so who cares, take another long pull off the bottle of cheap gin next to you on the table, gaze vacantly into the middle distance and contemplate the meaninglessness of your existence, etcetera etcetera.

Some of you may have noticed the sportsbook numbers weren't updating this week. Our "provider" Pinnacle went and changed their website again, we assume to ruin everything for us in particular. Luckily, I hold a continuous grudge against them that will go with me to the grave, so rather than moving on to a different site that isn't interested in loving us over regularly, I've hacked and slashed yet another scraper together because these assholes can bite me. So for you gambling degenerates, the odds should be updating again as normal and let's all just take a moment to collectively put out into the universe that Pinnacle can get eternally bent for taking away their XML odds feed that was both free and convenient. I hope they choke on their reactjs.

Leperflesh posted:etc. etc. Updated statement: Is this revisionist history? Yes. Do I care? No I do not. I just don't want to go round and round on this in the threads anymore. Maybe no one is trying to die on this hill but we sure do take a stroll up it more often than we need to. I can assure you that the welcome email this year will reflect the history I have indicated was always the truth because I write the welcome email. Qwijib0 went rogue, I can't control him, no one can, it's folly to try.

Harlock posted:Edit: Actually, my account got deleted??? We had to change email providers this year and we've had to get pretty aggressive with disabling accounts for email reasons to keep the deliveries flowing. it's possible you got caught up in some of that accidentally. PM me or reply here with your username on the site and I'll check it out.

Qwijib0 posted:Looks like HSTS is screwing with us, I'm getting it too, will look into it HSTS is working exactly as it should, but our email provider is re-writing the URLs in the email to include this tracking domain redirect to monitor click-throughs via their interface, which it should not be doing. It was not doing that in previous weeks, so something appears to have changed on their end. I'm digging into it with them. The joys of running a web app on the internet abound ad infinitum, y'all.

Since I don't know why it became unfixed, I can only hope it will stay this way, but hope I shall. I'm not going to re-send the reminder emails today, but if you still have un-made bets, you should get one tomorrow that works properly.
