Just gotta be patient as EA has confirmed the website is no longer going to be supported for CFMs.

Or since he already took a lot of people's money for Madden 17 pages, I'm sure he'll be upstanding and refund all of them if he can't get it working...and soon.
There is patience, and there is waiting for an app which may or may not even come to potentially be able to pull data from...


First , im pretty sure he hasnt taken "a lot" of peoples money as he shut down sign ups pretty quickly. Secondly, If you want to be impatient, im sure you can open a ticket and he will gladly refund your money now. He has no control over when EA drops the app, as he stated on twitter yesterday he is working with EA on getting ready for madden 17, so it will come. If you can not wait though , by all means , open a ticket for a refund. He has never just taken peoples money and ran. He aint like that.

How many existing leagues renewed for 17 already? I think no one will care about waiting as long as Papi is upfront and honest about the process, and if it turns out he can't make it work he refunds everyone without having to jump through hoops.

A lot of us are more than happy to plop down money year after year for a league page (this is our third season doing it), but communication needs to take place.

Twitter is one thing, but there should be information on THIS site about progress, or lack thereof.

My guess is papi is not going to be able to get the data without the website. I don't see EA turning over the data to him exclusively and letting him make money off of it. It has been a helpful tool and I'd continue to subscribe to the site year after year but I think this is the end unfortunately. Best solution would be for EA to develop an API to allow developers/fans the chance to create apps themselves instead of developing their own app.

You are guessing wrong, we will be able to get your stats for madden 17 and we will be up and running soon.

Is the same thing happening for Madden 18?

Not sure what you mean there @IcecoldGothic ?  In Madden 17 the app was not ready or even available to public until it was released after launch.As long as the app is out ( which it should be ) and functional, then Papi should have DL ready to go much sooner this year.He will of course be combing thru to see if there is any other data he can get exported from app to add to DL. As well as maybe some other things . But the hold up this year was waiting on the app to drop.
