Abstract

Daily fantasy sports are becoming more and more popular every year, however most users find that they have weak strategies and always seem to be bested by those who are willing to dedicate significant amounts of time to their craft. The current fantasy sports applications that run the market put a heavy emphasis on the money that their users are able to wager on each competition. FSBuilder, an iOS application, will focus primarily on the improvement of its users’ strategies as well as providing clear and easily accessible statistics for each contest on a daily basis. FSBuilder will utilize a number of iOS services for web requests and local databases. Users will have the ability to create a number of free lineups (all of which will coordinate with the many types of scoring methods found on the more popular fantasy sports sites) at any point in the day, matching with the specific slate for that day. FSBuilder will aid users in learning the best strategy by offering features such as “What went wrong” where the application generates a lineup where one simple change would’ve caused a significantly better outcome. Users will be able to log in and out with a username and password as well as add and challenge their friends based their usernames. FSBuilder will have a smooth real-time updated fantasy score chart with all player statistics viewable at a glance.
