Hey Covers,

Just a question for you..what happened to the regular office pools section where all the pools that say I started were organized by sport..like NCAA BB..NCAA FB & NFL & so on...they're all jumbled together now & messed up so I have no clue what I'm looking for & have to go through most of them 1 by 1....Is someone fixing this so we can at least get the pools that we're playing in organized by sport?

Thanks ...

Hello,

We are in the process of importing them over from the old system now. Due to some technical restraints only so much was able to be carried over at one time. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Regarding the Office Pools, we are looking into creating a My Office Pools page which will be broken down by league so you can easily find the pool you're looking for. I don't have a time frame for you at this moment however.

Regards,

Let us know if the runtime error continues, we are doing code pushes throughout the day in Contests, so some things may be slow.

For testing purposes: What is the exact URL you are trying to visit and where are you located?

Thanks

When I log on to the main page of covers, I see my user name in upper right section. When I click "contests? then select "office pools" from pull down menu; my user name is not there?

Then the next page I see is: "Popular Public Pools".... that is my only option????  Sooooo, I find a list of 4 public pools, 3 of which I am active in. I select any one of those three and then I am taken to that pools page. I see my user name on the list, but it is not highlighted like it used to be????  AND when I click on "Make Picks" there is only a blank page where the games to be picked should be ???/

Then I get this message..... any ideas?

Contest Bet Card

Please make a selection on the left.

Pending Picks

No pending picks.

Hello The_BigDog,

What browser and device are you using? Also, where are you located? And, what is the pool URL you are trying to make picks on?

Also, there is a 'See all pools' link on the right next to 'Popular Public Pools'. It brings you here: https://contests.covers.com/OfficePools/List

Also, please see the 'My Contests' drop down where you can see all your active contests.


Thanks.

Hello kahlmyishmael,

https://contests.covers.com/Consensus/CommunityLeaders is what you are looking for.

There you can sort by sport and see the Top 10 overall, sides, and totals. And if you scroll down further on that page you'll see 'Community leaders by Team'.

Hope that helps.

Hello King Creole42,

Are you referring to: https://contests.covers.com/Consensus/CommunityLeaders

There you can view all sports top 20 or sort by sport.


Or are you referring to:
https://contests.covers.com/Consensus

There you can view all sports or sort by sport and see sides and totals. 


There are also Contest leaderboards per sport.


Let us know.

Thanks

Hello King Creole42,

That would be Contests leaderboards, not Consensus. Otherwise known as: King of Covers.

Specifically for NFL it is:

https://contests.covers.com/KingOfCovers/OverallLeaderboard/477776e1-0d5e-e511-9e61-0024e8753722/RegularSeason

To get there manually use the Contests drop down menu.

One other minor problem is that in the office pool section the "commish" of the pool doesn't match up with who's running the pool...example one of my NBA pools that I'm running it's saying that joegoraiders is the commish of my pool...here's the link...you might want to look into these...
