This update is fantastic, thanks for always innovating. Two questions/comments:
1: I know you said you are not offering ownership projections at this time, but I would LOVE to see that as a feature. Honestly that's the only feature that you don't have that others do. I know it's difficult to get accurate, but honestly I think most people use it just to help identify chalk plays. I hope you would consider adding it sooner rather than later.
2: Is the "min val included in calc" the projection value or the value column (projection/salaryx1000)? Because as it stands for the NFL main slate you only have 19 players above 3x in the value column. It seems to still calculate using players below 3x value.

Again, great job! Updates like this will continue to keep you #1!

Is this something new? I know it wasn't there yesterday.

When I clicked crunch, it won't crunch and keeps giving me the DK communities guidelines. Only after searching for awhile I discovered that you now have to select the type of projections to use. Ok so that's fine I selected my own projections since I upload it. The next issue is I set max exposure to 15%. I didn't exclude anybody. Yet the cruncher won't even crunch more than 5 lineups. I use "each" as the crunch option. Did something change since yesterday or was there an update?

I would love to see some sort of projected ownership column or maybe an article for Insights. Most tout sites are providing some sort of projected ownership for large slate GPPs. I think if your Insights section is really going to be helpful, it needs something like this.

Seems like they changed the columns F and G back to what it is supposed to be. Can you guys fix this for tonight? It should be a quick fix.

Thanks!

Can you break the articles out by site? It's really hard to identify which articles are for which sites (FD, DK, Yahoo) at first glance and I had to do a search on the page.

It might also be a good idea to also highlight the dates better, maybe put the dates first in the header, make them a different color, or bold them to make it stand out. Right now you have several articles with the dates in different places so it's hard to identify. Below are two article names for example:
The Starting 5 | October 18, 2017 – DraftKings NBA DFS Expert Lineup Picks
Top Picks & Value Targets for Yahoo! – NBA DFS Lineup Advice for October 18, 2017

Looking forward to the articles!

Thanks to Fantasy Cruncher! Your tool is the absolute best.


I depend on your injured designation to rule out players that's injured. He didn't have the tag...and now I just realized after lock that he's questionable. This is really unfortunate and dooms pretty much 20% of my lineups if he doesn't play. Please keep up with the injury tag for all players.

this tool is goat

This new look and feel is awesome! It is MUCH cleaner and easier to look at. I noticed it is much faster too!

The removal of select/unselect by row feature is excellent...too many times I would accidentally unselect a player by accident.

One bug I found is that several players you can't "like" (thumbs up). For example, Justin Anderson. In fact, if you sort by value, none of those guys you can like until you get down to D. Russell.

Keep up the great work!

Wow...this is so boss. This is one of the reason why FC is the best out there because you guys are always listening and improving!

Thank you!

I'm sure this was answered before, but I can't find it. What does the like (thumbs up) button do? Does it increase the projection by a certain amount? How about double or triple like?

Thanks

Does this mean if I click "generate" twice without changing anything, I would get different results with the randomness factor?

Can you elaborate on this a little? So I usually use 3-4 unique players per lineup to get the "randomness". How is this different than that? If a lineup must have 3-4 unique players compared to the previous lineup, doesn't this provide the randomness?

Your new page with the contest links...the And-One "Prize" for cutoff is always $2, when in reality min cash is $1.50. Just a small bug there.

I'd like to request a way to save Group settings from day to day, specifically for NBA. For example, if I don't ever want to play Nurkic and Jokic in the same lineup because only one of them ever go off at a time, this won't change from game to game. This would save time each day that the Nuggets play for me to not have to set that up each time.

Thanks

The max filter for value is 8, so Lebron disappears because his value is at 11x. Yes, I can add him back by the method you detailed, but it seems like a bug. You are correct that the player still shows in the lineup.

What I'm really trying to get at is to be able to update projections in Player Manager without it wiping out the exposure rate. In the NBA, I might setup player exposure throughout the day and save the player pool. Near lock, I will upload and update my projections in the Player Manager (but not the exposure). When I upload the projections, it wipes out all exposure to 100%. But if I load my saved player pool, it wipes out my projections. I need a way to do both if possible.

So it's hard to describe but bare with me.
1: I saved a player pool.
2: I loaded my own projections.
3: Loading my own projections reset all exposure back to 100%. I then proceeded to load player pool, which loads my ownership back as well
4: To test if saving player pool also saves projections, I set Lebron James projections to 90 points and saved player pool.
5: I then cleared projections and loaded projections again
6: I loaded player pool. I can no longer find Lebron James in my playerpool.

Now, no matter what, when I load my player pool, lebron james is no longer in my player pool. I'm guessing this is because his value is at 11 but somehow by default the value range in the filter is from 0-8. The total player pool shows 109 players, but I only count 108. He's essentially disappeared.

You can get into my account and take a look at my player pool that's saved right now and duplicate the issue.

This means that saving player pool does save the projections as well. But unfortunately loading my own projections wipes out my exposure %. Ideally if loading projections won't wipe out my exposure, that would be best.

Awesome, thanks

I assume that there will be updates to the optimizer that will take advantage of the new MPE for NBA?

so awesome, love the exposure persistence. Thanks!

Fantastic feature! As somebody else mentioned in the Groups thread, is there a way to save the stack from week to week?

And I'm sure this was asked before, but is there a way to save my Advanced Options in general? I go between my work laptop to my home computer and have to reconfigure all the changes I've made previously. It'll be awesome if we can save all configurations to our profile similar to saving lineups.

Same ask for player exposure rates for each players and projections if possible.

It was not showing when I posted, but it is there now. Thank you

There is a 4 day NBA slate with today's game and tomorrow's games (4 game total). FC at the moment only show today's games. Can you fix it so it includes all four games?

Thanks

Why can't we upload the DKEntries.csv? FC won't have to access the account...the DKEntries.csv will be in the same format that FC generates. All you have to do is crosscheck the lineups with the players from the earlier games and lock those players. Essentially after upload, you would have the "crunch" that represents those lineups, and we can tweak from there. Something like that...but either way you won't need to access anybody's DK account...the upload is done by the user.

Thanks again

Thanks for responding, and you are right I "could" do it that way, however it is a major pain in the ass. Unless you are only talking about lineups WITHOUT players from the earlier game.

So for example, Kemba Walker plays in an earlier game at 7 EST...and I have him in half my lineups. In order to recalculate, I'm going to have to tediously lock him in and then redo that half of my lineups separately, then exclude him (and the players from that game) and regenerate the other half of my lineups. This gets more complicated the more players I have from earlier games. If I run 50 lines, and 40 of them have at least one player from the earlier game, it makes retooling impossible. Also, what if the player is locked in the PG spot and FC crunches him into the Util spot?

I hope I understand you correctly and am not missing something, but I don't see a solution to this.

Any update on this? One of the best features your tool could have is to be able to upload the DKEntries after lock. Sometimes, especially in NBA on weekends, there's one or two earlier games if you're playing the all day slate. Then late breaking news happens at 7pm...rather than manually try to retool the lineups around the guys who were locked already in the earlier games, I suggest a new feature where we upload the DKEntries.csv. In the Cruncher tool it will show the lineups WITH the players from earlier games locked in their positions. This way we can retool the exposures to the rest of the players based on breaking news.

This would honestly put your tool over the top and would be a no-brainer for those debating between FC, DFN, and FantasyLabs.


Just to make sure we are on the same page, we are talking about the links that are included on the front page seen here:

Correct?

Is anyone else having this issue?


I go from the top nav "Tools -> Lineup Cruncher".

"I also made a few bug fixes, including the front page links that sometimes did not go directly to your favorite site as set in your profile"

This is still a problem. I still have to cycle to my profile first then go to Lineup Cruncher to be directed to DK (my preferred site). Otherwise it would push me to Fanduel.
