Please go there and send them something, to try to save this site.

Thank you very much all3. Hopefully this information will wind up being quite useful. Here is the message I sent to them:

"I have been playing sim games on the whatifsports.com website since 2006. There are plenty of Fantasy sites spread out across the internet but true sports simulation sites, done right, are a rarity. Your company has a tremendous asset in its grasp and seem to be squandering it away just like Fox did.

Shame on them but it doesn't have to be shame on you. Please understand how unique and dedicated the customers on whatifsports.com are and always have been. But we're dropping like proverbial flies because of broken promises and unfulfilled expectations. Please, for the love of everything holy, take a closer look at our beloved website and make a decision. Either cut bait and close the whole thing down or, preferably, allocate more resources to improve the site. Anything is better than the status quo...running in place listening to the crickets' incessant chirping.

Cordially,

Christopher M. Young"

Hopefully others will take a minute or two (literally) to follow our lead. It can't hurt anything and it's free.

Well, for what it's worth, I did receive this reply in my email box:

"Christopher,

Thanks for the message. We’re currently working on some integrations with the SportsHub network. After that’s complete, we’ll be catching up on adding 2017 players for the various games, and then planning out other updates to the site."

And then as I just logged on, I noticed there was a discussion on the forums about this very matter. So talk about your crazy timing. Let's hope it has been worth the wait.

Seble's new thread coincided with me getting this response: We’re actually working on integration with the SportsHub network of sites right now. Soon you’ll see the results of that work. Beyond that, you can expect more work to be done on game/site improvements, since most of the transition/integration work will be done.

Maybe things are getting done. Guess we'll see shortly.

If the 17-18 players aren't out by the time football kicks off, I'll be using my remaining credits in the progressives I'm in, including the one I'm in, then I'm out the door.

I did just that (thanks for taking the lead), and added a little SimLive twist - very encouraging response.

"Thanks for the message. We’re currently working on some integrations with the SportsHub network. After that’s complete, we’ll be catching up on adding 2017 players for the various games, and then planning out other updates to the site.

As for Live, we would have to rebuild that application in newer technology to bring it back. There’s no timetable for that currently, but we’d certainly like to do it at some point."

Now that the integration process seems to be done, those 17-18 players should be released any moment now..
Right guys....?

August 2, no college basketball player updates. Nice!

Seble,

Please add the 17-18 NBA players today.

Thank you.

17-18 players pretty please with sugar!

Wow, just killing any chance of enthusiasm, and we see that communication has again gone silent. What sucks, is WIS with its new platform and all, is about to lose two dozen more owners who had drafted before last year's NBA season with the intent of simming the results... as we have for a few years. The new season is just about on us, and we don't even have players inputed from last year. But hey, what's another 24 current customers lost?

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I'll get on my knees and pray

We don't get fooled again
