OS’ Week 6 Fantasy Football League on FanDuel

[FrankAtFanDuel]

Week 7 is up. (www.fanduel.com/operationsports)

@wwharton on 50/50s - If you build solid lineups consistently, you can grind out a long-term profit in 50/50s. Since it doesn't matter if you beat all of your opponents or only half of them, it's smart to make "safe" picks and save the boom/bust picks for tournaments.

@Aggies: head to head on the app is coming soon! The dev team is working on it.

Thanks!

What's the percentage breakdown for the tournaments? I've been trying to figure out the difference there from 50/50. Specifically, what's the percentage in tournaments that get paid "something".

We've tested different structures, but the top 15-20% usually win cash in tournaments. It's about 19% in the league I make for you guys.

Thanks, Frank.

I use the iPhone app works great. When they get head to head up I'll set one up for us.

Awesome. Great customer service. Ask on OS and get answer from FanDuel. Love it. Thanks.

And thanks for putting up Week 7. Got in (5) $2 games since I didn't know this was coming. Used FanDuel before but much more enjoying competing against folks you communicate with daily.

Frank, do you have an Android app? I just looked again and still didn't find anything. Even went to the site and see a section that says "play anywhere" but no icons to get the app from there.

I know getting an iphone app approved and up and running is the most difficult and time consuming so maybe you all started with getting that all squared away, but now you can come on over to the wild wild west of android!

We'd like to but the Google Play store doesn't support real-money gaming apps yet. We're trying to get them to open up...

Our mobile site lets you do just about everything you can do on desktop, and the desktop version of the site is responsive design so it scales really well to different screen sizes.

Ahh that makes sense.

It is funny that there's SOMETHING Apple allows that Google Play doesn't.
