Finally, everything is done. Today we will be unveiling the newest addition to CappersNetwork.com Live Scores! I am very excited about this because up until now even I had to leave the site to get updates on my games. Be it Yahoo, Wagerline or whatever I always needed to have another window open to keep track of the action.

Well not anymore!

Today is the first day so please bear with me. The colors and layout will be a little different but I didn't want to wait any longer to show everyone. By tomorrow the final look should be completed.

We have scores for all the major sports now and may be adding other sports later on depending on demand. They should be faster then wagerline, a little slower then sportsline and very close to the speed yahoo delivers them. Here is the coolest part, the pages all refresh themselves automatically after 20 seconds. Take a look, click here to go to the NBA page. Now just sit there for a second and watch. The page will automatically refresh itself. That is very cool. To my knowledge the only other site that offers an auto-refresh feature is ESPN.

Finally, I can't watch all the pages at once. So I will be depending on you guys to give me updates on how everything is working. So please use this thread to give me feedback on what you like, what you don't like, any problems or hang-ups, etc. Like I said, this is the first day and there will be bugs so please report back with any issues.

Anyway, that's it. I did this for all you guys to enjoy, I hope you use them, I know I will not be leaving the site anymore to get scores.

it looks good MC. I like having all the action on one page.

Question: Can the games be listed in order of the line sheet? Looks like they are in some scrambled order listed by times. And does it have the time updated with the scores?

Thanks!

I do not know if I can put them in order of the rotation or not. I will look into it. I think it does have the current game time yes. We will see tonight. If not I will see if I can get it added.

I really like not having to leave the site for scores. This is not a complaint but a question. Can the auto refresh come at less frequent intervals ? It seems awfully fast.

If enough people don't like it the way it is set I will move it. Give me a good time and if the majority of people don't like it too I will move it to whatever everyone wants.

F'd with the scores a little bit. Font and time and stuff. Any feedback is appreciated. P.S. The auto refresh is off for right now. I will turn it back on tomorrow when we are done adjusting.

Just wanted to get some feedback on what everyone thinks. We made some pretty serious behind the scenes changes and now the scores to be on par or better then some of the big dogs in the business.

I want to close this part of the makeover out next week so if there is anything you guys want that I can swing let me know now or forever hold your peace.
