Get rid of 150 entry max. It is the reason I play yahoo and not other sites, so I actually have a chance to compete.

Pro Leagues and Daily for State of Missouri
I contacted support to no avail. I don't know why yahoo hasn't added pro league fantasy sports for Missouri yet. When I asked 2 years ago, they said it would be available in 6 months. 2 years later, it is still a no go. Missouri state law allows paid fantasy sports at a professional level (just not armature at this time). Why can Yahoo not do the paper work like FanDuel, DraftKings, and various other fantasy sport sites?

Expand user tiers to more than just "Veteran"
Add a "Pro" status (or whatever you want to call it) that surpasses "Veteran". The range in user achievement with "Veteran" status is way too large. There is definitely a large number of daily users who are not beginners but are also not on the same level as the top tier "pros" (me being one of them) but are still lumped into the same status. For example, if I want to find an H2H match, every single created contest available is against what I would call a "Pro". Once an intermediate player, like myself, reaches "Veteran" status, it disincentivizes me…

Veteran status should be unique for each sport
I dont agree that the veteran status should be "across the board" for all sports. I think veteran status should apply to each individual sport. The reason why is because some people dont play each sport equally and each sport has a unique strategy for setting your lineups. When I just started playing I primarily did football, baseball and hockey. But now i am just getting started playing soccer and im still trying to figure out a good strategy. But now that i am veteran status, i am basically a beginner at soccer going against people with many hundreds of…

Add College Football contests next Fall
With the addition of season long college football leagues this past season, has there been any consideration of adding corresponding daily contests? I think the existence of both daily and season long leagues would conceivably drive traffic better to both products.

See how big these contests can get!
Why are you guys capping entrants with these contests filling 10 hours before lock?! These contests could get potentially be HUGE!! Let these contests get as many entrants before lock as can be and dare to challenge the current landscape. Amazing job building this player base already by Yahoo!

Increased PGA GPP Size
As of 2/25/19, the most recent 3-4 weeks have seen the 'main' $10 entry fee GPP capped at 1000 total entries (after previously being set at 2500 total entries). These have typically filled by noon or so on Tuesday, clearly there is demand for more.
Why the reduced contest size? It could be doubled and easily fill every week. Please increase the main PGA weekly GPP size.

Add "friends" for daily so you can easily compare scores and line-ups.
A few friends play similar DFS leagues, it would be awesome if I could somehow add them as friends so that I could see their lineups and scores to compare. Doesn't look like you can search in the standings.

Scroll directly to cash line and/or your place in standings
On FanDuel, when I view the standings and start scrolling down, it gives me a little pop-up option to jump right to the cash line and/or my own entry. If I'm in the daily 4,500 player NBA contest, and I want to see in the app (Galaxy S7) how my lineup currently ranked #800 is faring vs. some of the close competitors, I have to scroll forever to get there. The option to jump directly to my lineup in the standings would be best if I could only choose one of these options, but jumping to the cash line would…

User color coding in app to see who is currently on the court for NBA
When viewing a lineup within the app (Galaxy S7), the end of the statline either shows the player as On Bench or On Court. Great! Except as soon as the player accumulates a variety of stats, that part is pushed out of screen, so there is no way to know if a player is currently on the court. I recommend using the color-code bars on the left (currently just blank or green depending on if the player's game is underway). Keep it blank if the game is not currently going, green if the player is on the court, and use…

Improve fantasy hockey - Goalies
Quit forecasting starting goalies, since it seems to have little relevance on who actually starts. No information is better than bad information. The notes say one thing, but the DFS rosters show another.

Csv upload
There’s. I reason a major website such as yahoo should be behind on CSV upload if they are going to promote daily fantasy sports. The contests are great. No issues with that. 10 entry max are perfect. But hand building lineups and editing those lineups especially in the NBA with last second news is awful.

Add a sport-specific filter for your lineups.
Let's say you enter multiple PGA lineups, then you happen to jump on NHL or NBA or NFL over the next several days. It would be nice not to have to scroll and search for your live lineups...as PGA runs over 4 days. So please add a filter where you can just sort by sport. Thanks.

False Advertising for Guarantee Run
I entered a Daily NBA Quickmatch that was advertised an "G" or "Guaranteed Run" meaning that the match would run even if my opponent was not found. But the contest was cancelled because it says another opponent was not found....how does this make sense? I have to agree to terms to play but yahoo can cancel the match even if it is supposed to "guarantee run" confused...?

csv edit and overall improvement of user interface
Please get a CSV Edit, even if you keep 10 entry maxes. Please don't make me enter all 10 lineups by hand and edit by hand. I really want to play some money for your overlay tournament this weekend, but it's extremely difficult when your add/edit entry lags behind industry standard. I accidentally entered the same lineup twice but can't find a way to edit just one of those to a new lineup? Instead I have to cancel and resubmit w/ new players? There's a reason more money is spent elsewhere. Step it up if you want the dough.
