For lack of a better title: More Changes and News

Welcome back.

Since last we spoke, a lot's been going on both here and over at the main site. (In case you've forgotten the address, it's all over the page, so you shouldn't have to look too far to find it). So, let's talk updates. We have a new entrance page (if you've already visited the site before, you'll have to clear your internet browser's cache first to see it) and all of the blurry fonts on the website are now crisp and sharp and, most importantly, easily readable. Additionally, the username box on the registration page now says "enter valid alumni or school email", just in case any of you thought the program was only for alumni. (But don't worry, you don't need a school or alumni email address to sign up. For now, any email address will do. Although, when the season begins in September, we will have to ask for verification that you actually go (or went) to the school for the team you're playing on.

But wait, there's more...

We added a box that lists all the promotions we're offering now. We had a little bit of trouble with it earlier, but it seems to be working properly now. We've already got a bunch of great promos to offer you guys (including the $7500 Freeroll - July 22nd, save the date! - and the free subscriptions provided by our generous sponsor, ALL IN Magazine) and we'll be adding more in the coming weeks.

We've also added more information to the Contacts page under the About menu, so you can get in touch with us whenever and however you want. We'll be launching the next big feature by Friday of next week. That will allow you to link you profile to other member profiles. Sounds pretty good, no?

But remember, this site is for you guys and we want it to work the way you want it to. So if you have any suggestions for the website, let us know and we'll get working on them.

Oh, one more thing: People are little confused about how the account set-up with OTP works. Right now the system is a little slow but we assure you that you'll have your account set up in time for the Freeroll so you can take your shot at the $7,500 prize pool.

Thanks so much for your patience over the past week as we've been working out all of the bugs. Remember to check back often to see what else we've added and search from your friends' profiles!
