The best and fastest way for me to set up the site is to send out the invites to everyone's email before I finish the site.

I ask that you simply sign up for the site (ideally with your Pasta Padre name ... for ease of use)

Dont try to edit or mess with anything, or try to understand it yet... A lot still needs to be set up on my end for each user AFTER he signs up before it is ready to go.

Emails will be sent later tonight or tomorrow morning.

Emails are sent out...

Remember.. just sign up for now... I will work on it throughout Friday. Hopefully will have it live by the night...

Will need whoever is around at some point to do a test run... shouldnt be a problem.. I'll post when I need the help.

hey radie...this is a suggestion....since it shows every one by full name...everyone should pput first name as there gamertag...and there last name as team they r using

example: jackedup316 -PATRIOTS

I didn't think to do that but I put a picture of Clinton Portis to show I am the Redskins. I will change the first name to my account though

I just did the same thing. That's gonna be a lot easier than memorizing 30 names.

The name thing is kind of a moot point... The site is mainly going to be for the trade block and for the Instant Chat (Live FA Drafts anyone?)

The funny thing about the name thing is that when I go to set someone up from the list. of names.. I see their full name, but once I allow them the permissions... it shows their sign in name...

The name thing should really only be an issue for me and honestly at this point, I have seen the contact sheet to know almost everyone.

I would say that adding a pic repping your team (preferably a logo) is a good idea. The only way I THINK (I cant see how non administrators see the site) that you guys will be affected where the logos might help... is in the live chat and the pic will be shunk down so that it might be hard to see if it is a Redskin or a Buccaneer on such a small scale.

I am going to put logos on everyone's Trade Block also.

Hopefully, at the very least if everyone's section isnt live, at least a few of them should be... for guys to mess around and see what is up.

I suppose the name thing is a good idea.. for when people are on the Live Chat.

I have tested the site (with the help of Speed914) and it looks like it will be good to go in a few hours. Basically as quick as I can work. Its not as bad as I thought it would be either... bonus!

When the site goes "Officially" Live (it technically is already) I will email you all to ensure that everyone is aware.

I will try to give the best instructions possible, but please be aware that as the Admin, I see A LOT more options then you guys do... so it is very hard for me to guess what you see and how to direct you. I'll do my best and will be available for questions, but...

I would appreciate it if someone who is good with stuff like this, could give it a look over and explain the best way to use it from your end.

lol im sayin..its complicated lol

It looks worse then it is...Jnesses can attest to that.. he was looking around the site with me and we kept finding better and better things the more we looked... and there is still A LOT of untapped potential.

The site is live now and I am writing up instructions for using it now... but if anyone wants to mess with it now... have at it...

Also note.. I am testing out the DEADLINES feature, so you may get a notice about that.

Totally free... They have a paid service with more features, but that is mostly for businesses... The one thing I wish we had that is in the paid service is the ability to change appearance... I would have been able to make each team page look really good with banners and stuff.. oh well.

It looks very good. One question I have though, is there a way to make trade offers on it or will we just continue to use the trade thread for that.

I wouldnt use the trade thread anyway to make offers... You dont want to tip your hand and let someone else try to steal a deal away from you with a better offer.

I would contact the Owner through that site. Contacting them through their Profile will send an email to whatever email they used to sign up. Then you can have a private talk.

I will leave the TRADE thread open though... since it is ridiculously active.

I took lots of break (and watched a lot of AMC) but I am now past 12 hours of working on the Sosius site...

As I have said.. It is LIVE but the instructions might have to wait until tomorrow...
