To be honest I wouldn't click on either of them, but #1 is closer. I'd get rid of or shrink the "Feed Your Addiction" tag and add some in game stuff. Maybe the very bottom of a box score with Dee Bradley hitting a walk off home run. Even better if you replace the picture of Bradley you have now with draft information and add the "Player of the Game" box at the bottom. Just my two cents on the matter.
I'll be waiting on my consulting fees

I noticed their brand new banner is front and center on the fox fantasy sports web site. I wonder how much that'll help to generate new users. Certainly can't hurt.

I'm amazed so many people clicked #1.  One of the worst visual things in this game are those ridiculous fake pictures.  I guess other people don't feel that way.  Frankly, that would turn me away.  Looks cheesy and cheap.

I love the game, by the way, just being honest.

The marketing must be working. *10* worlds have rolled over since yesterday morning, including 4 today, and there's still a lot of day left today. 

Of course, there are still over 100 openings out there. But is progress I suppose.

I agree about the cheesy faces. I just hope none of these new owners are lesliechows.

It looks like it's the public worlds that are filling quickly.  Hopefully the private worlds get a boost once most of them are filled.

I wish there was a way to turn off the faces, actually. On the one hand, I do really like being able to put a face to the players' names, but I wish you could toggle the faces to off (aka, "work mode"). Doesn't seem impossible from a programming standpoint, does it?

Anybody know if this game is still being marketed outside of this site? Please excuse my lack of knowledge in regards to the history of this game. Based on the above, it looks like they had some marketing in place, back in the day.
