You can see all the action LIVE for the inaugural event here.

Great start when the website crashes on Opening Day!

works for me

No worky here. I would at least like to see the content before I throw them to the wolves.

It’s been working for me too... a few incidents of lag but that kind of thing is normal and cause can be on either end. They haven’t updated leaderboard yet though... so that’s something they will need to work on, a system in which they can track what’s happening off camera with mandatory self reporting updates required by anglers.

Doesn’t work. They must have not invested in enough server capacity. This will really hurt them.

OK Boyd, its on our end... right.

They may have some sort of load balancing implemented (which would be smart) to prevent network and servers from being overwhelmed. It’s possible they underestimated the interest and the load balancers have kicked in preventing some connections. If you got in early your good until you disconnect, if not, then you have to wait until the load decreases... just speculation but it’s possible. If they misjudged traffic they may have to get host to increase the bandwidth available to their network.

They'll fine tune it im sure, takes some time to get it all down

Really cool deal with some solid sticks.. I know I’d love to be fishing in the tourney rather than what I’m currently doing on a Thursday.

Question - how do they keep track of the live leaderboard? Is there a marshal in each boat or anglers logging their own or something?

I’ve got it now. Just a brief growing pain hopefully.

NPFL Leaderboard and live broadcast working well for me.
A lot better than the early days of MLF. More importantly the announcers have not pizzed me off yet.

I know Sheldon Collins in fishing it and he doesn't show up on the leaderboard as even fishing it so i'm confused about that too

That’s interesting - I haven’t seen the LIVE Leaderboard get populated yet... it will open but it still shows zeros on all anglers. The broadcast has been fine, but can tell when there is cellular lag, which has been minimal. If there are people who can’t load it or getting kicked, it may be the providing host didn’t allocate enough bandwidth or NPFL didn’t anticipate the traffic. The guy who signs the check for network hosting services will always wait until their is data collected and scrutinized before increasing the load capabilities... as that’s expensive stuff. I am sure they will be analyzing every byte of network traffic from today and make adjustments as needed... which if the host provider is anyone of importance in industry can adjust on the fly, or as soon as the increase in pipe size is authorized.
