Enter your Preseason Rankings at FantasyFanatics.com
Riley and I just relaunched FantasyFanatics.com with the intention of discovering the best fantasy football prognosticators. We’ve designed a series of quick and fun fantasy games that will set our members apart in terms of fantasy skill. All games will be graded based on real game stats. Members will be ranked in a variety of ways. Performance in all the games will be aggregated in a member’s Fantasy Skill Quotient (FSQ), which is at the heart of our main member rankings list. The Preseason Rankings Game is now live. Click here to check out the ultimate Fantasy Football Rankings Community.
While member rankings are our main concern, our rankings games also produce some very cool content. We “Crowd Source” all of our members rankings into one consensus list. Right now we just have Preseason Rankings, but during the season we’ll have Weekly Rankings, Breakout Player Rankings, and Waiver Wire Rankings. You can sort the Crowd-Sourced lists by all members, top 10% FSQ, top 1% FSQ, etc. We hope that our readers will find these rankings lists a valuable resource as the season moves along.
Fantasy Fanatics also hosts a separate “Media Rankings” list. Anyone who operates or works for a sports-oriented site is welcome to post their URL in their profile and be included in this list. We just launched this two hours ago and we already have six site representatives signed up! This section has potential to distinguish which sites/experts are the best of the best. We also hope this section will serve as great publicity for those that participate on the site. I’ll keep working to get more media to sign up!
Riley and I have never been fans of standard forums so we build a pretty unique and interesting one for this site. We’d love to get some feedback on its functionality. We’ve tried to make our forum both more visually pleasant and easier to follow. We’ve integrated a lot of Twitter ideas and a nice automated tagging system. Posts are tagged into categories like “Draft Talk” or “Injury Update” so that you can sort to exactly what you’re interested in. Member stats, such as FSQ and awards won, are also posted in each thread. This helps give you an idea of the relative skill level of the person responding to your posts.
Each member has both a Profile Page and a Games Page. Profile Pages allow you to view at a glance all of that member’s recent activity on the site. You leave a message for that member, view his historical rankings, and just learn more information about him. On the games page you can view that member’s current and historical picks. If you encounter someone on the site that you really respect then you can visit his game page often to see his thoughts each week.
