Am I Seeing Things? (Edited 04/28/10 07:20PM by Jess)
Am I Seeing Things?  <span style="font-size:12px;">(Edited 04/28/10 07:20PM by Jess)</span> Photo

Chances are, the last time you gave a Respect to somebody, you got a notice that looks a little like the one above. You probably thought "wait a minute...that's not right". Well, I assure you, it is! You are now able to give out 50 Respect per day total, and the limit to specific users has been raised to 5 instead of 2.

We've also made some changes to Quick Fantasy - we've added Public Games. To get to Public Games, click the tab to the left on the Quick Fantasy game page.
  • To accept a Public Game: Just go to Public Games by clicking the tab, filter by chosen date or prize (or just All) and pick your game to accept. Then you'll be taken through the regular flow; picking players and confirming as usual.
  • To create a Public Game: Go through the process of creating a Quick Fantasy game as you normally would; just leave the Suggested User there and confirm the game. Your challenge not only will go to that Suggested User, but also be placed in the Public Games pool. What if the Suggested User is someone you WANT to challenge? You will need to go in and actually choose them from your list of friends for it to only go to them without being put in the Public Games pool.
  • A Public Game is automatically created if a challenge is not accepted within 6 hours of the challenge being created.
We appreciate any and all feedback, so let us know what you think!

 I think we all got stingy because we were so afraid that we would see something that deserved it more. Now we have a little breathing room.

Respects don't effect me much, well the overall one. There are a couple people here or there that I want to give more than 2 respects in a day though...so that's cool.

Quick Fantasy is a plus, Playbook with horse racing I've never been into, but I might try it once.

(Edited by Kenne)
Personally, I believe 50 respects (and 5 per person) is too many, but I'm probably the lone person who feels that way.  I think 20 would be more than enough, as I only give out 5 tops per day, if any at all.

Funny thing is, I handed out 300+ per day during season 1 (when it wasn't uncommon for a poll to get 100+ replies in it's first 4 hours).

I think it's great.  The Powers that be obviously DO listen to the masses, whether anyone wants to admit it or not.  Not everything can be changed or implemented at the drop of a hat, but they did hear what everyone said, and implemented the increase.  So thanks to the Techs who worked hard to get it done. Your work is definitely appreciated by THIS member.

 I just gave a respect to every comment in this poll.

Up until now I had never given more than a couple a day. And I've been a member since before FanIQ even had respects, or the smart-funny-pq, or even the thumbs up before that.

I would only give a few out, just to the ones that made me laugh here at work....

Now, I give them out to those who even give me a smile, but they are all still deserving, so that is what I tell myself.  j/k

I give only to the ones that brighten my day or makes me actually think.  Too much thinking though does leave me with a huge headache!

50 is probably too many -- I have got into the habit of using them primarily for those who create polls .. especially the sports polls where the "creator" has to score it.  Playing more than 2 per day from the same "creator" ran into problems with the "respects".  I've never been into the ponies -- but I'm sure I will now and I'll check out the Public Games ... love that stuff.

If you've already set a roster for the same date as the game you're accepting, you should have a "Last Picks" button there just like when you're creating or accepting a game regularly :)
