The word from TSN is :

Scoring Note: We are working to update the scoring displays for 10/5. Scoring should be up soon! We appreciate your patience.

Bochensky didn't finish the game on the top line with Spezza and Heatly... Alfredsson took his place and score twice in the third... I'm so glade I stayed away from him... Especially with the Sens bad schedule....

They are currently updating the total scores. But they messed up somewhere. It shows me and another league rival has 900+ points. Dunno about the other guy, but I definately get 900+.

actually they've credited goals and assists as 50pts apiece instead of 25pts.

they should give KKB a Job, how come he can have everything working at kafenatid.net, and they cant have it working there. TSN is lucky no one elsa has a fansty game like this, because they seem to mess up alote.

Because I dust off my old code and only make modifications as needed. Most of the time, the sources I use for stats haven't made many, if any, changes, so I only have to tweak here and there. For instance, last night all I had to do was update some URL information and a couple pattern-matching strings to get what is currently up at the site. Took about 40 minutes. Now, I still haven't verified scoring, but a quick glance at the box scores and such last night told me that NHL.com hasn't change much of anything with those pages, so I would put a decent sized bet on them being the same and the TSNP calculations being correct.

When I used to play TSN games, they seemed to be intent on reinventing the wheel for every game for every season. New interface, new this, new that, new and new and new. My web site stays (mostly) the same for a reason. ;)

The scary part would be if they're still using the same stuff and still having the problems. That thought alone is why I don't play TSN games anymore; can't imagine giving money to people who consistently fail when they've had years (didn't I play Smallworld back in 1998? 1997?) to get it all figured out.

Do you guys think that TSN is going to add the page that shows you how many stats you've accumulated over the season? Like a column that adds stuff like points and wins and stuff like that.....

Strange that they haven't included shots on Goal as a column. It's a valuable stat to track.

No it's a seperate page that tracks the stats of your team vs. your division. It was there in baseball. But in the last couple of years, the hockey version also had a top manager stats section, to see how many "goals" you have, for example, vs. everyone else.

Oh I know what u mean. Like how much tsnp you get from your forwards compared to your defensemen, how many goals, etc.

I don't think you have to write his name. People will have to refer to post 18 to know what u are responding to anyways. At which point they will see who posted it.

Looks like TSN is slowly working through the bugs and making the necessary fixes. We can now see all the rosters.

However when I click on the daily stats breakdown link for Wednesday, i'm still invalid at the pitcher,1st base, 2nd base, and catcher position. I thought I had those positions covered with Jagr, Lang, Leetch, and Legace.

Day 2 = TSN still trying to fix stuff.

I will be happy with TSN when I can finally look up my results in the morning. Why can't I see the results, stats, other teams, gainers? Whats up with all the problems...

Yeah, its a mess. Kind of hard to figure out what kind of moves to make, etc...you can see Players increases my going to the My Team Page, then clicking the player will show you his current price. Compare that to his price on the My Team Page.

Just a complete lack of QA on TSN's part...and I am speaking from a IT perspective. I mean, the Price Movers page is showing Baseball language. I can see if this was basic, but Ultimate is a pay game and it isnt like there is no competition that gets it right.

Just bad business.

True, it is very hard to predict moves, trying to figure out money trains is impossible...
The only thing I know is that I have gain 70 000.....but wich players. Now i see I can clic on every player to see the increase...terrible !

I've cheked the TSN board, and they are at 8 pages og complaints....good thing. They had all night to repair this....and no...nothing....zip....$@##%-all.

Everything seems to be up and running now.... Not too bad after a full year of innactivity, they took only 24 hours to fix most of the problems, but we can't see the price movers....

I can't see my F%@#%@#$ world ranking.

I understand TSN is having their problems, but TSN has taken the WWRs off the team pages and frozen rosters. How can you have a game and not know your freaking rank?

Yeah, that is on YOUR home page. Which BTW is still not updated. How can you have a game where you can't see the WWR of a frozen roster?
