jairamesh Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Major Update : Those of you who have tried to visit this website in recent days may be aware that we have been having significant problems with the site. Given these problems, we will unfortunately need to cancel the competition that has been running so far, but we have arranged a replacement competition, as set out below. We accept that the website has not been functioning correctly, and has been barely useable over these past few days, and apologise to you all for that. We initially had problems due to the large numbers of people trying to use the game simultaneously, and then had further problems when trying to switch servers during the game (to cope with this high demand). This led to the scoring system malfunctioning and the game play (such as making changes) becoming impossible for several users, as many of you experienced and have noted. Given the problems that have occurred, we sadly feel that the current competition is irretrievable, and feel obliged to cancel it. It would be unfair to carry on with the competition when there are some users who tried to make changes but were unable to do, or whose teams were incorrectly saved whilst we moved servers. It would also have been extremely difficult to correctly allocate points to teams who had made changes. We are very sorry but we feel that to have a fair and legitimate competition, we have to start again. We know this will be a disappointment for many of you, and we are truly sorry that we failed to provide an adequate and functional game for you as we set out to do. As a goodwill gesture, we will pay prize money to the current 3 top teams as shown on the leaderboard. We will pay 10% of the total prize money, as a little under 10% of matches have been played. All other prize money will be set aside for further competitions this IPL season. We are extremely disappointed at how the competition went, and that we have needed to cancel it, but feel that we have now identified the problems with the website and are able to rectify these. Our developers have assured us that these glitches can, and will, be fixed. Although we are unable to continue with the current competition, we have been assured that the game will be ready to run correctly from Wednesday. We therefore propose to open the game to you users on Wednesday 11 April, from 12pm UK time (4.30pm Indian time). We will run a test competition for IPL matches between Friday 13 April and Monday 16 April (5 matches in total). We hope that as many of you users as possible will want to test the website out during that period and attempt to win that mini competition. We would very much welcome your help as testers, and would appreciate your feedback over that period. For that competition, you will be allowed 10 changes to your team - the other rules will stand as currently. You will not need to re-enter your account details, and can log in using your current email address and password. You will need to pick a new team from scratch, however. There will be prizes for the competition, which will be: $200 main prize; $50 second place; $50 6s prize; $50 wickets prize. Assuming this testing period and mini competition are successful, we will then open up another main competition with further prizes for the second half of the IPL season. Once again, we are extremely sorry that we have not been able to give you the fantasy competition that we set out to do, but hope that our proposed replacement competitions will be more successful and will prove enjoyable for you.
