Here we go again, this time this should go much more smoothly.

I have fixed all of the issues that arose last weekend when this launched, and have put it in an alternate location:

http://preview.myfootballnow.com/

I would love it if you'd check it out and see if it works better this time around! This will also allow me to fix any remaining issues over the next week or so without breaking your ability to play the game, because I will leave the current site up long enough to make sure there are no major issues with the new one. If you do run into a problem, please post it here and then just go back to the old site.

In order to bury the old thread into the annals of forgotten history, here again is the list of the most significant changes:

* MOBILE VERSION! That's right, the site is now mobile friendly! You should have a much easier time playing MyFootballNow on your smartphone.
* Hide Spoilers - Instead of taking you directly to your game, the system now hides all spoilers until you turn them on. That way you can go around the league pages and even watch multiple games without knowing the final scores.
* Renegotiation Wizard - You'll find a new feature where your can perform a bulk renegotiation for your team. In the wizard, you'll see each player and the contract they are requesting. Turn on or off each player's request and immediately see the impact on this year and next year's cap.
* You can now replace your saved game plans.
* The depth chart "load recommended" now allows you to choose which positions to have your coaches set, so you don't have to do the entire depth chart if you want to do this.
* PLAYOFF PICTURE - starting with week 1 in the regular season you can keep up-to-date on the state of each team in the running for the playoffs.
* POWER RANKINGS - during the season, see how your team ranks in the power rankings!
* Accounts less than 30 days old are unable to make trades.
* Trophy case on the team page now paginates, for those of you who are overloaded with success.
* Each player page has a quick link to jump to any of his teammates.
* The game viewer now has a button to jump to the game log. When you use this button, the game log doesn't show past the play you are watching - and there is a button to return to the game viewer.
* Players may no longer be moved to a position that reduces his future rating by more than 50% points (by the default ratings)
* The player card now has a tab that shows his ratings at any position he is eligible to be moved to.
* Player search can now filter only players in the requested group (so you don't have to weed through all the punters and kickers)

I personally don't like how the ratings have moved on the player page and how the order of the draft picks shows up differently on the team page.

Draft needs to have the yellow boxes highlighting your picks put back in

Awesome stuff... Is it possible to have a setting where it was like in the past so that when we go to a team after a game has been played it defaults to the game? Maybe just a little pop-up that asks "would you like to watch your game now".. Also.. if you have watched your game.. Is it possible for the scores for the league to be shown by default?

I don't understand the new thing on the depth chart. I had a player playing back up OLB positions. He was 73/73 SLB and 56/73 WLB. but right now looks like he's 56/73 on both position.

Also, the weight column in the draft history section has some numbers to take a look at.

and am I the only one who can't find the Power Rankings and Playoffs outlook thing ?
EDIT : GOT IT

Still not finding the mobile version to mobile friendly. Still cant move players around on your draft chart as everything still needs to be dragged. Adding the option of move up or down on the player page would be greatly helpful.

Honestly anything regarding sliders should be removed to make it more mobile friendly

+1

They seem to be listed in random order.

I know I'm going to miss a pick like this.

Did you decide to stay with the 10 point margin? I thought it was going to be more.
