Can you tell me more about how you encountered the reality and then realized that naturally you should pivot the application and how you developed the journey then as a CEO?

Yeah, so, you know, I guess it's fair to say that the company was founded on this technology vision that, again, these kind of problems are coming.

We need an engine that can deal with them.

exactly what application that would be to get us into the market was subject of some debate and we had to try to figure out, okay, what's a good entry point here.

So certainly we came up with the game physics as our idea for that market entry.

We developed a business plan around that and sought investment on that basis and went out into the market to, uh, engage with the customer base around that.

Now, to be fair, it was probably, you know, almost two years since we founded the company before we were in very much active, you know, customer engagements.

You outsource to a third party manufacturer the first product or you decided to pursue your own factory or facility?

And I'm curious, uh, you know, what are some common mistakes that you see happening in your drafts, uh, that, that people are doing?

Um, I think a couple of things that I, you know, routinely see is, is like over-allocating for, for certain positions.

Um, taking too early quarterbacks, taking too early tight ends.

Um, taking four running backs, you know, right off the gate and then your wide receiver one is, is, you know, a guy that you're probably not gonna be able to rely on very much weekly.

Um, stuff like that.

Take lot, where, where guys are just like, they will not take...

It doesn't matter if they fall 20 spots past ADP, they're just not gonna take them.

Mm-hmm

What about correlation and the final three weeks of the season? What do you do about that?

I think that's, you know... just like you're trying to tell a story about your, your lineup with your draft.

I think you're also trying to put the puzzle piece together, right? So you're starting with, you know, the first puzzle piece and then you're like, okay, where's the next one coming in? And then where do I go from there? Um, I think that there, that the correlation with the playoff weeks is has some merit and also doesn't, I think it, you know, a lot of people now will say, Oh, it should just be a tiebreaker.

Um, And I think I get to a point in the draft now more than I did because obviously whenever the whole week 17 thing came out, everybody, it was just everybody wanted to do week 17.

Got to have week 17 stacks.

You got to have runbacks.

You got to have this.

What do you think?
