FanIQ New Site Features
Introducing our new Game Pages and Pick'em

I hope your summer has been going great so far.  Here at FanIQ World Headquarters, we've been working hard all summer to make FanIQ the best sports site on the Web.

Since the launch of the site, one of our most popular features on the site has been Pick'em.  We're taking Pick'em to a whole new level by launching a new game - Predict the Score

Starting today, you'll be able to predict the score for each game.  Your over/under and spread picks will be calculated automatically from your prediction.  You can also earn *huge* bonus IQ Points for predicting the exact final score!  We’ve also added a couple of other features that you requested – the ability to change your picks right up until game time and  to pick in several days in advance (great for when you’re going on summer vacation). Unfortunately, due to the switch, any picks for active games will need to be redone - so make sure you get your picks in so you can get IQ points.

That's just the beginning!  We're also launching Interactive Game Pages.  You now have one place on FanIQ where you can track your picks, the score and also exchange comments with other Fans. Yes, each game will now have its own page and live thread!  On these game pages, you will also see links to game previews, recaps, and box scores. All the information you need will be right here on FanIQ.




As many of you know, we've been growing very rapidly and we've had a lot of growing pains. We appreciate all of you who take the time to report bugs and suggest features and improvements.    We're adding brand new servers later this week to keep the site fast.    


Start entering in your picks now, and be sure to check out the pages for each game while you are there! This is your site so please let us know how we can make it better.

Are the Commish/Team polls still going to be attached to the pick-em?

They are attached, but they are now shown as a tab on the game pages. Not only will it attach the poll for that game, it will also show other polls for that series (if they are available).

I would suggest making the commish/team polls a little more visible on the pick-em page. This is kinda of a pain in the butt

Alright, Fan IQ is dangerously coming close to supplanting Gutenberg Printing Press, fire, the wheel and those interwebs as one of GREATEST THINGS EVER! If this keeps up it may even challenge TIVO. Oh for those wondering, FanIQ crushed sliced bread 8 ways to Sunday.

 

ALL HAIL THE Q!

We'll be making sure that gets added back to the results page.

As far as the over/under & spread, we'll be adding that to the "picks" tab on the game pages.

I was so busy thinking of how this would work for baseball, I didn't even consider how great it will be during football season... that makes it even better, thanks for reminding me!

 I have no idea how to play the new pickem format! I made all of my picks yesterday and then couldn't find anywhere on the page to submit them. I played all of the pickem polls yesterday and received exactly 0 points  ,+ or - for the 11th of July. Please, some one help. I'm sinking fast!

this is awesome!! I just got 340 points for accurately predicting the score of the Yankee/Blue Jays game yesterday! Very nice- I'm loving this

At first it scared me...I had to decide what I thought the score would be and it took me longer than it normally would to fill them out.  But I really love the new format now.  I like the way it looks and I like the fact I can change my answer up until game time.  I was always second guessing my self after I hit submit the old way,  but now I can second, third and fourth guess myself!  I like having the option to do that!  Of course that also means I can't use a missclick as an excuse for a bad day at the pickems!
