ETA: Here is the link to the Live Scoring App: CALCOMATIC.COM
I'm going to create and run the Live Scoring app this year for the contest and I've already started the development effort. I'm starting with the "scoring module" which pulls stats from NFL.COM and calculates the the scoring for the contest.
I've deployed a test page to an existing website (http://sharplease.com/LiveScoring) which allows you to select any regular season game from last year, or any game this preseason. Select any game and the page will display all the stats/fantasy points for each player in the game. I wanted to make this available so people could help me test/review the scoring module to see if it performing the calculations correctly. Most of the stats are pretty straight forward, but any defensive TDs or odd offensive TDs might have some issues. If you can think of any weird TDs from last year, lookup the game and check to see if I have accounted for that stat in the fantasy score. Keep in mind this is just for testing the calculations and it's not that pretty - rest assured the fully functioning app will look much better.
Also, I need help with the name of the website... I always like the "Iggomatic" nickname for Iggy's app, but "steeler-o-matic" doesn't roll off the tongue too well. Once I have a name, I'll create the website and start working on the final product. Until then, suggest some names, and check out the test page!
