Scoring FAQs
Q. Why am I not getting points for so-and-so when I see posts that they are in?
A. Check into these possible explanations:
Full name
Make sure the celeb's full name is being used. Because celebs can share first or last names with other celebs scoring must be based on the full name. Purposely mispelled names and nicknames will not be scored.
Is the blog being used by your league?
Is the blog you saw them posted in being used by your league for scoring? Each league chooses it's scoring sources (blogs) before the season begins.
Delayed - Common / One-word names
Is the celeb in question someone with a common name - like Fergie, Sting, Prince, Seal...and so on? Some celeb's scores are delayed because their name is a common English word or easily confused with another person's name. There are a handful of celebs like this - in this case just wait an hour or so and your score will be posted. All on-hold scores are resolved before the end of the day. Full list of On Hold celebs
Partial RSS Feed
Did you see the celeb's name on the blog's website - but not on Fafarazzi's version of it? Since Fafarazzi uses the blog's RSS feed for scoring, and some blogs only publish partial feeds, you may find that a celeb's name is mentioned on the website but not scored. Each league can choose which scoring sources to use for scoring - so it's your choice on using partial feeds or not. Partial feeds can still be very accurate for scoring.
Timing
Check to make sure that the post is from a day that is in your season. Sometimes you may find a post that is from a day before your season started - which won't count for your points.
