We're back!!!!

Im so glad you are back up. I was having fafa withdrawls!

we're a little groggy after the surgery, cough cough. things are a lil slow right now but we're workin on it.

UGHHHHH, it sucks! You moved the page to the middle and now the background is split so you can't even see what the background image is (in the groups).

And we all know everyone only comes to Fafa to see my ingenious backgrounds.

Fix that pronto, chop chop.

Right click, view background doesn't work either.

And you can't scroll down like before. UGH.

I can't come here anymore......

Or else you're gonna leave? Don't tease us Andy.

Send me your icon pic. Thanks.

Todd has my email.

thanks for the KIND WORDS andy! sorry about your precious backgrounds. What's "cant scroll down like before" mean?

The new gui is a vast improvement. the old one sucked balls more and more as the site expanded.

I used to scroll down on the page in the groups to get passed the ads, so I could see if the BG was sized right or looked ok. Can't do that anymore. Does that make sense???

I wonder how this looks on a widescreen LCD.......

hahhahaha - YES mole nailed it. The old menu was a piece of shit, too.

I liked the old one.............

Let me have root access on your server. I can fix this lickety split.

Thanks.

oh,, andy, yeah that makes sense. well the site is wider now, so yes you will see less of the background.

Honestly, we had bigger things to resolve than seeing the backgrounds completely, sorry. Your photoshop masterpieces can still be attached into group posts, too.

Maybe we'll do an option in groups that lets you turn off the color (like grey on this page) - so that the background shines thru.

I'm away on vacation and had to come and check it out!

One word, Todd: FLAWLESS.

(Sexy flawless, that is.)

Quiet mormon, don't feed his ego.

I'm liking it.
But, I will miss the backgrounds in the groups.

Ok I've noticed a few things. BTW, Really lagging, took a while to log in..new servers?

1) Could the field/text color be changed? On the login page you cannot see the email address you type in on the Register or Login tab since both the text and the field are beige apparantely.

2) I changed my survivor team but the widget states "my ANTM team"...here is the link


3) I miss the BG's also :(

Ugh. Once I am FINALLY used to the old FAFA, after that first website change, you guys mess it up again. We all know how I feel with change. I am a neophobic. Great... I too will miss Andy's backgrounds. Especially when I am an anal porn star.

Aside from my issues of change- it takes FOREVER to log on. Moll had the same problem. Is this an issue for anyone else?

lmao well I will post my widget to FB then

Also, (sorry for being a pain in the ass guys) I am not a big fan of the color schemes for this page, or the main community forums page... Is there a way to change it? It's kind of difficult to read...

na diva, I was telling Todd the same thing after Molly texted me...took a LONG time to finally log in

you are NOT sorry for being a pain in the ass, stop lying Chola eybrows

Oh, and is the text font/size combination, plus color schemes also difficult for you to read? It takes a minute for my eyes to focus on the words. And NO- I am NOT high. I am at work. On a Sunday. Sitting next to the molldoll.

She's lucky

hahahha you mean Kenny is not America's Next Top Model?!

(eww)

Yeah that widget is effed up somehow, sorry. We'll look at it today.

1) Could the field/text color...
Do you mean on the login page? Or on the homepage? There really shouldn't be any beige in those form fields.

Diva -- difficult to read,, you mean the text of these replies isn't dark enough? Or there is something else on the page,, like the menu etc that doesn't look right?

Yes- everyone's replies. Like I asked moll in case I was nuts, but she agreed as well. I think like either the color of this text on the white is a bit strange... maybe making it darker??

Diva just called your font, dainty and "pussy" she wants a bigger, bolder font that doenst look like you are giving a limp wristed handshake.

Yes, the blue color is hard to read.

My "whats going on" feeds are not fully showing. I can only see the top 1/2 of the font.

The login page Todd.

When I 1st came to the new site, I had to re-enter my email and password to set the cookie. By default, the main page showed the Register fields and the email address field is beige and you cannot see the email address you type out. Then when I clicked the Login tab, the email field is also beige with the text.

Hopefully, we will help you get rid of this pussy text before everyone logs on tomorrow at work and starts bitching...
(hmmm, why am I not bitching? What's happening to me?!?!?!?!!?!)

hmmmm that beige thing might be a browser thing on "email" fields -- but then we made it white text, which of course makes it totally impossible to read HMMM

we'll def have to check this out, thanks for noting it Toni. Thats the homepage, the login page has nice plain form fields.

Everything seems to take longer, but it's simpler. Or something. I'm still getting used to it. And you're still working, I guess. Is it going to stay more abbriviated when it comes to tidbits, or don't you have time to load everything right now?

Like... you have nothing better to do with yourselves? Can you fit in some more ads, or something?

Best of season's greetings to you guys. I missed you. Well... it's the daily blast of gossip that I missed, but the weekends are slow, anyway.

How about more news about the golden oldies like Jack Nicholson? Don't you have your own paps? lol

W
T
F

Okay, I didn't understand any of that. I think that was, "good job guys." I on the other hand, don't want to develop eye strain/blindness from trying to read this difficult ass text.

yeah that sounds about right

Damn fafa looks sexy :)

*continues to click things and wow*

good job guys!

thanks sunny

Okay, okay. So I finished navigating around. Overall, I like it. The tabs are better (games, the hills) because now I don't have them switiching on me if I clicked on something too quickly.
Again, OVERALL, I like... My only problems are...
1. I will miss my backgrounds. It really was like a highlight of the day...
2. I am still trying to adjust to the font size/color/style. All over the site. The blue links are okay.
3. Todd, you know I love myself. And the fact that my name is so tiny (next to my icon in the replies section) really upsets me. Even though it's blue on white, I want my name to be BIGGER
4. I can't be bolding my replies everytime I respond. It's time consuming dammit.

What's Going On feed is not working right yet. Mexi... why don't you try to suck it. All the best. That sounds about right.

Sorry. This isn't finally cleaning up of psycho insults by any chance, is it. Disscussions.

oh shit.

Well, everything's back to normal. Where's OhNo? Overdosed waiting for Fafa's return?

See 'ya around if I don't see ya coming.

Nothing personal, Todd. Do I get an Amazon certificate for this?

Diva -- awesome, love the honest feedback, thank you. We'll be takin note of the ones that pop up a lot

haha sorry paige no Amazon GC for ya.

OK. I'd send YOU one Todd for Xmas but I don't think I know your last name or where to find you.

Like the new swap. Nice not to have to scroll down through everyone with the search box instead.

Got to do lunch now. Have a nice day.

Hmm, just a thought... I wonder if Diva's font situation varies per browser? I think it looks great on Mozilla, but we all know different browsers do completely different things.

hey, is there a reason that our leagues are listed AFTER the tv games in the
"my games" drop down menu? I have to admit, it took me a while to even FIND my leagues

Welp, now ya know where they are :)

Yeah -- the reason is because there is only ever a max of about 9 tv games goin on at once, but you could be in like 50 fantasy celeb leagues. So -- rather than put the 9 at the bottom (the shorter list) we put it at the top.

Makes sense sweatband LMAO.

I'm uing E 7 and all the font is now arial 10, maybe 8-9 actually. It's gray instead of the pretyt navy blue it was previously, and our names show in light blue about a size 4 font...lmao tinytoni is VERY tiny

As I said before, I love it, love it, love it. I love it so much I'm having wild crazy monkey sex with it, and that's saying something since I'm still at work. :-)

And as much as I'm addicted to fafa, I certainly didn't replace fafa with any 'dolls' or anything else that would cause a Winehouse-like hospitalization. lol

Everything looks great guys!

Hey Todd! I'm using Firefox and everywhere i look it's a sick purple surround by Grey color... And I have more problem with the loading speed on the site since it has been upgraded. Other than that, it is easier to navigate compare to the old one. Keep up the good work!

I like the new look overall; it's quite a bit cleaner (especially with regards to the tv games). I agree that the font sizes are too small, though. Text that's in light gray is almost unreadable at times... I'm also not loving the thumbnails next to every name in celebrity lists (example: the "Available Celebs" list on the Swap page. It would be cool if there were a way to turn those off.

Also, is that "Who's Hot / Who's Cold" list still around? I can't seem to find it if it is. I miss it.

UGH. Look freaks, just hit "ctrl and +" at the same time to make the page bigger. It's not like you're losing any real estate because Todd decided to center the page, leaving two small, useless backgrounds on either side.

ATB/FT

Andy, true they could do that, but we'll look at the text size/color and make sure it works best for everyone without having to adjust

CrazySexyCOol, are you saying sick... like the purple doesn't look good in the background?

Who's hot is in the CELEBRITY DIRECTORY. The cold isn't on there tho, we'll like put it there and/or on your Swap celebs page in your fantasy celeb leagues.

More specifically, HOT CELEBS

If anything just make the text a little darker, it doesn't need to be bigger.

Todd - You should just hire me as the background manager, it's quite obvious you can't handle it.

ATB

LOVIN IT!

It's like a really nie xmas gift: you keep poking around and find new stuff to make you grin like a 5 years old

IMO: even with my four eyes the small grey font makes me strain. Can you guys go from point 6 to point 11? lmao something (I see Todd's post to Andy, so tyvm for working on that)

Hmmm..I may have to score survivor to see what that looks like now ctfu

I'm cool with it all except for the font being too small.

Todd I think it looks great! I know a ton of work must have gone into it, well done! Thanks for working so hard to make the site so awesome.

I'm having a hard time swapping celebs into my leagues, so I went to the celeb directory and found the celeb I wanted. When I clicked the celeb's name, I got a Fafa fail page.

Am I missing something? Can we no longer go to the celebs page and see a listing of all our leagues to swap?

Also, is there a reason why our leagues are no longer divided into in season, pre-season, and ended frm the My Games drop down tab? Are then automatically in order, since my 1 preseason league is first on my league list?

Todd, why would you link us to top celebs? That list is obviously a lie, since The Gould is still not there...
Just sayin'

Hello Arlene, how are you? Hope all is well.

All the best.

Looks awesome!

Todd, its just a sick purple: a twisted mix of dark purple going near navy blue..cant explain it: its a fashion thing. And if you do get the site down for some maintenance, will you be kind enough to let us know so we won't freak out plz?

ok honestly my page isnt centered, its all the way to the left, maybe its just the browser (firefox) it'll take some getting used to, i finally got used to my little click here then here system ;) but redoing the whole site def is some work, so good job guys!

I like the changes, I think it looks good over all - nice job guys! My only negative is I miss seeing the backgrounds on our pages.

Cha-ching! Chalk another one up for team Winehouse. OK Todd, I think the experiment is over. Let's revert back to the good old Fafa that worked and you can go back to the drawing board.

You are kiddin right?... Great! I look like an idiot for venting my fafafrustration now...

ty for fixing the login field Fafa team!!!

Hey, is there a reason why my cookies aen't working ad I constantly have to relogin since every group I click into says "i'm not a member"? Should I clear the cache and cookies to reset?

I'm having the same problem with having to re-login even though I told it to remember me.

Yeah I think the nerd team will have to take a look at our cookie stuff tomorrow.

I'm glad everyone is liking the redesign! We all worked hard.

ok something else....has the character field for group notifications/PMs been shortened? Due to many usernames like shanut and OhNo's, the name of the group cannot even be seen from the main page...the most I can see is a few letters if I can even see the 1st word in the group name as long as the username is short

For example:
shanut_is_a_woo_girl posted a reply to a topic in the Sha...
Mrtinigrl posted a reply to a topic in the The Tribe has ...
MollLovesIgnorantSluts posted a reply to a topic in the S...
OhNo_Still_Luvs_MilliVanilli posted a reply to a topic in...

AND I'm glad we get to see how beautiful you are WITHOUT the pick shirt Megan *runnin b4 Big Bird holds me to my end of the deal*

Yes CrazySexyCool, it's called "fucking with Todd and Megan". It's my favorite pastime.

The new site is an improvement except for the fucking centered page. Just don't tell Todd and Megan I said that.

Oh ok, I won't... I permanently have short-term memory loss anyway

Andy only says that because it messes with the display of his photoshopped images which have just recently become his only positive contribution to the world.

I hate it and I'm never coming back

just kidding....it gets the rainbow blessing of the gays!!!!
good job guys!

Oh Andy, are you suffering from insecurities because Photoshop can no longer erase/modify imperfections?

Toni - do you know which celeb gave you the Fail? That really shouldnt happen

For swaps - you'll need to go thru the swap page within that league. There is no league-availability checker on the main celeb list or on the celebrity's profile. At least for now, its something we may put back.

Re: leagues split by season/preseason etc -- yeah that got lost,, we should be putting that back in,, as its a pain for people with lots of leagues if its not there

Thanks suss!

crazysexycool -- we did announce the downtime in PEEP THIS on monday. We shoulda put it in the forums too i guess... but we did sorta like the surprise factor too rather than have everyone freak out about what might be coming on friday :)

BTW if a_paige is around, please, please talk to the suss
i need to meet you and discuss the world

and todd when's fafacon
seriously
i need to see my sluts!

Michael_

I love you. I truly really do. Your comment about Andy has had me laughing for 10 minutes.

Kisses,

One of Suss's sluts.


P.S. OhNo used to be one but then she got hooked on smack.

Todd, or staff? I've noticed that some celebs didn't receive their points today. Like Clint Eastwood in one of my leagues. Are you going to catch up? What if we swap them?

Hi, Andy. Just whizzed through these posts and noticed you. Everything is fine, thanks. I see that you're in good form. Enjoy the holidays! Next week I'm going to Vegas just before Christmas for three nights. What's your favorite number? I like roulette.

Scores should be all set -- do you see a specific post that is missing a point?

I think I saw a few, but I'm certain of at least one because it's my league and I have max scoring.

It's Clooney and the Birds, League 2 and my whole team, with Britney and Clint Eastwood, etc., has zip points. lol

Also missing points are the Leagues: Britney's Incompetent, Posthemous Oscar, Lover's and What-nots, South of France, possibly December No Swaps, and more. I'll give you the whole list soon. One of those I've listed so far mysteriously has 1 point awarded for Amy Winehouse, but that's all.

I have 49 leagues... peewee compared to most of your leaders... and they're all missing points, just about, for Clint Eastwood and Heath Ledger, and I don't even know who all else yet, since I'm not going to check it anymore. I've been swapping out Clint Eastwood and it's time to watch the tv poop.

I'm distraught! I trusted you!

What are you going to do about it?!

You may write me a private e-mail, Todd, about this terrible embarrassement.

can anyone tell me where i can look at more leagues that has been created plz? Cuz everytime I go under Fantasy Celebrity Leagues, it is always the same that pops out

Paige -- send me the list directly. We're definitely checking into it.

All my still active leagues, but about 5 of them, are missing their scoring points. I would list all their cute names, but you don't deserve that. Peep for yourself! I'm one of your stars, after all. I'm in the top 10!

Did you work yourselves to the bone doing the upgrade? The integrity of my game is ruined for 3 weeks! Happily, I've been slowing down and am no longer compulsive about my leadership position. Sometime, or other, the drinks are on you for this affront. I'm passing through the east coast sometime in the next year on the way to Europe and Russia. Do you ever get to New York?

I wrote the last before I saw your post. Really, it's just about every team. You have complete access to my list, don't you?

the font size is so small. esp on the home page. i like to be able to glance quickly at my rank in the various leagues and now i must squint. at pretty much everything lol :P

I just checked. I have access to all of your teams and leagues. lol Happily, when I tried to swap for you, I got the discussion page. I thought I could take a moment to improve your standings.

The above was meant for Todd, about the access to info. Not you, luna_goddess. The site is having a little scoring problem. lol

It's been pretty slow too. Um... have a nice night.

<3 suss


ATB/143Andy224

Big oops on the scores paige -- thanks for pointing this out. We're doin some big cleanup on it

Scores are fixed now for December 14th (sunday)

You won't see them in your "today's points" since they were for yesterday - but we checked everything and made sure all the leagues got points. We had a big data job that kept quitting on us halfway thru,, so some leagues had points, some didnt. We cleaned everything up and made sure all leagues scoring for every hour of the day were done correctly.

You mean it wasn't all about me, Todd? I'm always sure it's all about me.

How come nobody has joined my new league, New Fafasite League, yet? Are invitations going out? Lots of people always join my leagues and I'm still the only one in it as of midnight, Los Angeles time. You should join my league. Did you get your invitation?

Where is the list of the games you have been invited to? Am I just totally missing it or is it gone?

generally its alright. im just going to have to get used to it like facebook. shouldnt take too long as im 30- so i think im good there. the font color is weird. like when im typing this its perfect then it turns into a sexy font but its really light. also, the eliminated people in the shows aren't x-ed out like they used to be when they get eliminated. meaning i have to do reserach on who got eliminated/won.

and if people want to see the backgrounds, set the browser to 75% and you see the whole image. looking out for you andy lol.

Jeezuz people. Would you like some cheese with that wine?? seriously.

I think tood and meagen and the whole fa fa staff did an awesum job. I've looked around and have'nt had any problems. Great Job guys keep it up8D

Hmmm paige, we'll double check on those invites being sent out via email.

ElGuero -- do you mean Fantasy Celeb League invites? They should be on your MYHOME page in the ALERTS section.

ty Todd, I thought I was still drunk

Aren't you?

I must say it looks super sexy on IE6. Just throwing it out there.

Holy crap mol,, thats kinda awesome to hear. Nothing looks good in IE6. We did some last minute cleanup on IE6 stuff, so... whew.

I mean, I am sure I can find something- like how the tabs kinda "stick" (i have chalked it up to trying to walk a throughbred like it's a dog) but sheesh, that is the least of my problems. I am rocking IE 6.

ATB/FWork

LMAO nope, not yet

Hey, here is the Survivor report? Considering I did not get to watch it last night yet JUST found out who won courtesy of my verizon homepage....fucking piece of shyt I hate opening my browser the day after a finale I didn't get to watch...but I would LOVE to gloat over my "team" if I could

My computer won't keep me logged in here. Other sites and email are ok. Do you think it's just my comp or the site?

I have to say I really like it so far, I justhave to do some exploring. My only concern is that the scoring font size is really small. I'm basically blind over here you know.

Won't keep you logged into fafa -- like at all?

Toni - we couldn't send a scoring report last night for Survivor, sorry. Gotta fix that up still apparently

Sorry you got spoiled but secretly happy at least it wasnt fafa spoiling you :)

If I close the site and come back it does not keep in my info and I am not logged in. Once I'm logged in I'm ok.

You use the 'remember me' thing on the login? If so -- sorry bout that, its a bug were fixing today. The cookies arent working properly

cooooookies

lmao @ Todd...yes, I cannot blame fafa this time...verizon is now 2-0 for me (survivor and dwts, i never even watched the last 2 shows thanks to verizon)

THEN my mom had on the today show and they started playing clips from the last night....does the media NOT realize they are fugign with show ratings by announcing winners/eliminated ppl the very next morning? Sometimes i get so aggravated I just delete them from my tivo in protest! damn the media *shaking my fist*

Yes I use the 'remember me'. And no prob, I just wanted to let you know. :)

Andy, suck a fat nut. Apparently I wasn't the only person annoyed with the text. I have used two different versions of IE and it still looks a light gray and is difficult to read. Asshole.
And I ACTUALLY said I liked everything else, and you all know how I threw a fit the last time they changed FAFA on me.
I just came to check on the font. With that said, I am going back to teaching.

A few loose ends.....

Todd - I still don't get the peep this, WTF?

CSC - I have no imperfections.

Dive - Bite me.

I'm just glad A.Paige is back in the forums, makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside.........

ugh, the Bite me was intended for Diva....fucking typo.

another question: what happened to the little graph that used to show when you were swapping celebs?? the graph seems to be gone from the celeb pages too.... or am i just not seeing it?

No graphs yet, were gonna find some pretty ones and give you even more awesome graphs shortly.

No PEEP this week, sorry. We had too much other stuff to clean up on the site.

My apologies to the Will Ho for Food and Glow of Electric sex icons that won last week for most votes

My apologies to the Will Ho for Food and Glow of Electric sex icons that won last week for most votes

Well, your forgiven since you just acknowledged it.

thanks todd. i love me some graphs :)

Where is the Top Celebs listing where it shows how many points each celeb has scored for that day?

The main NEWS section page has that,, its called TOP HEADLINES. It's in the same order as the old page,, and we just recently tossed the "Tom Cruise has 11 posts today" on there.

oh damn,, sorry martinigirl,, its will Ho for BOOZE. Which makes way more sense actually

Thank you, Andy. Maybe you should try to avoid Mex too, in addition to Thai. The things you tolerate.... Rotten peanuts. Hot chili peppers. The poor biddies, or something. You're a saint, I suppose.

Todd? Are the graphs coming back in the Standings section? And where are the listed points for all other league members each day? Also, there's no link to leaderboards but you can search for it and move in through the only leaderboard that the search provides.

When can we start to seriously bother you because you think that you're all done? Like... by Friday? Cookied up, and all?

Try not to get overwhelmed. You're doing great, I guess. Did you really give me my points last night? Thank you?

OH. I just noticed your remark about graphs. Well... I just scroll and skim trying to avoid weird attacks. Sorry. Don't repeat yourself on my account.

I like the 'fafa community' at the bottom where you can see the latest things being said in your forum (including your own posts)

It looks awesome, but I am with Diva. The font is hurting my eyes. I think it is a combination of the font type, the size, and the light gray color. Everything else looks great. Nice job Team Fafa.

The remember me button doesn't work when I log in. I have to log in everytime, its annoying.

I love the rest.

Hot chili peppers.

Racist much? I'll have you know, Andy likes them spicy.

bears,, try the remember me thing again,, it should be working now. chris just fixed it about an hour or so ago

Still not working for me. I blame Andy.

oh yeah didn't read all this but everytime i go to the home page it seems to log me out and i pressed rememeber me.

Are you there Fafa team? It's me, Toni. I have a suggestion/question/possible request.

Since we still cannot delete multiple pages of messages AND there is still only 10 messages per page, do you think it would be possible to add a "Delete My Messages" button on the top of the page as well or instead of the button on the bottom? The only reason why I ask is cuz it is an extra step to have to click a box on the top of the page to select all the messages, then still have to SCROLL down to the bottom of the page to click the delete button.

I still have over 50+ pages going back to Jan of this year and I thought a redesign may make it easier to mass delete messages. If you guys would consider it, many people would be grateful, myself included.

Thank you in advance,
XOXO
Toni Girl

Ugggh, are you still complaining that you are popular?

I can't find the page to check the status of those you've invited to join your groups. Where is it, Todd?

Thanks
Keith

hmmmmmmmm you do love your league invites keith! It should be on the invites page, and if its not, its goin on the list for this week.

Nope it's not on the Invites tab. I like to check out the status of my invitees. Guess it goes on the list.

lmao bite me molly

How about a fucking option to simply DELETE sent messages???? I don't really give a fuck, it's not my space but you think fafa would. I'm beginning to question the management around here.......

Just saying........

None of the teams that I drafted in 5 new leagues showed up on my roster.

We'll have to look into the draft from tonight, thanks for the heads up paige.

And my group -- Our Group -- disappeared. Thank you. lol

Are you still celebrating?

Um... and you can't restart your league. 'Nighty night.

The 2 leagues that started tonight for me are gone, too.

Check the Help Forums please - i'm keeping up on that bug there.

Known Issue - DRAFTING

Scoring wont start back up til the draft is done

I 2nd Andy's suggestion to be able to delete sent messages. I don't need to keep them around.

and now the site is just boring. not your fault. i blame tv for having nothing but reruns up right now. too much anticipation for upcoming shows.

Eh, holiday week, no one's at work or school. I do wish the boards had more action on them, of course
