Thanks Jess, I was wondering how I could find out how bad I am losing.

I'm officially scared now. I was thinking the same thing as Beaneaters.

I'm playing something like 25 people. They're all going down. Soon I will be a Q-Millionaire.

I'm playing 8 challenges, but I can only see 7 of them.  I made sure they were all finished before game time.  I'm wondering what happened to the 8th.  

And who do I complain to about how bad I suck at this?

On your 7th one, did the other person accept the challenge? Otherwise, I know we're working on some games that got delayed a bit.

You don't have to go to Facebook. Just click on Quick Fantasy. Then Start a Challenge. Then on the left hand side you'll see current challenges. Click that. No Facebook is necessary at all.

Ok, I can confirm that I'm in 22 games. Can anyone else top that?

I received a challenge and accepted it, not realizing it was for 1000 Q BUCKS!! Guess I'll be more aware next week. Fortunately for me, I'm winning that one! I have two games going.

As you already know Jess..you are kicking my ass! LOL

And, so are Rick and Irish

But, beware kids, cos most of my good players play the late game tomorrow night!
I absolutely love it though, and Kudos to all the Q, for this great new addition. Lot of fun!

You dont have to challenge people on Facebook TJ.
Just type in the name of the Q person you want to challenge, and it will give you a list of names and you pick from that. It is pretty easy, and I bet you'll enjoy it.

Expect a challenge from me next week

Oh you can ignore that - you don't have to go on facebook for anything. That's just an option that people will have soon; to challenge their facebook friends if they belong to that site.

Anyway, all you have to do is click that orange challenge button at the bottom right :)

I blame Roddy White. 2 receptions for 27 yards was a bit less than I was anticipating.

Good question - I have no idea. I know that it's SUPPOSED to limit us to 7 (which kinda stinks, I'd like to have more) but somehow some people have found a loophole of sorts. Sorry I can't help ya there :(

Ok, then it was one of three reasons why the game didn't go through.
  • Both team's player selections were not completed before the draft deadline.
  • There were insufficient funds to cover the game wager.
  • Your opponent did not accept your challenge.

That'll happen sometimes. Not everyone likes getting their butt kicked by you, huskerfan

I still have a QB and running back and a defense that haven't played. Although, my odds are still not real good of winning.

Hey Jess... I have a suggestion regarding the challenges. On the 'current challenge' page where you see each game (where you ultimately click on each game to view the stats and score) is there a way of the Q showing the score of each game so that you can see how you're doing without having to click 'View Match'? It would save a lot of time and trouble.

I like that idea! I'll send it through :) and then you could still see each individual match (because I like to know which player to complain about) by clicking a link that takes you to that matchup.

haha...I think you're speaking about the "others" you will lose to. Me? Did you read that I have NO clue? This kinda reminds me of when I first joined the Q and had NO idea what to answer on the NASCAR polls. Think that's funny? I had to ask Scott what "Over/Under" meant.
