Risk Day 35 - ICYMI - Nebraska Is Cool People (And So Is Texas). The Three Husketeers Ride On!
So....it may have been a mistake to announce one of the most significant developments in College Football Risk while the NFL Draft was in full swing / everybody was drafting Wolverines. With that in mind, let's try this again.
Announcing THE best alliance of hated powerhouses the college football risk world has ever seen! I present to you drum roll The Wolverines-Cornhuskers-Longhorns Alliance! Or as we like to call it....The Three Husketeers! (As an FYI, I'm interpreting all of the groans I'm hearing through your monitors as laughs, cheers, and applause). Before the Cornhuskers completed this blue blood triumvirate, though, they showed their dedication to the cause by joining us in a 1000 IQ play to ruin Ohio State's west coast presence (you can read about that here - https://mgoblog.com/mgoboard/risk-day-34-announcing-wolverinehuskerlonghorn-alliance-and-story-how-nebraska-jedi-mind).
Now it's time to ride into battle with our Nebraska brethren. The battle lines have been drawn with Michigan/Texas/Nebraska on one side and Ohio State/Texas A&M/Wisconsin on the other (and both sides being very careful to not piss off Georgia Tech....DON'T PISS OFF GEORGIA TECH). We lost a few of you yesterday, but that's understandable with the whole starved-for-sports-oh-hey-it's-Roger-Goodell-in-his-living-room thing. However, we need everybody to pull their weight over the next 16 days. So please, go to MichiganCFBRisk.com right now, get your assignment, and execute it (and make sure it goes through). And if you are having any technical difficulties, please let us know so that we can help you get back to the frontlines.
Now, let's keep it going! Play every day. Play consistently. And Let's Go Blue! (And Burnt Orange! And Scarlet but with Cream and not Gray!)

Let’s go and get rid of the rest of the Gray...time to show who is the true Champions of the West.

The Three Husketeers sounds like a gay porn flick. Recommend a rebranding effort...

Hold my ear. I’m going in.

Im not sure how much i trust Nebraska and i think adding Texas only benefits Texas.
But ill do what my assignment is each day and hope for the best .

Out of curiosity, why not piss of Ga tech?
April 26th, 2020 at 12:49 PM ^
So they don’t ally with OSU. Right now they are neutral.

Time to take Columbus!

Technical question, asking for the second time. When I'm on my phone and I hit the Michigancfb.risk button it takes me to the right screen, I get my assignment, a college team logo shows up just like normal. Then I tap the link that says to play the assignment. Here is the trouble:
it takes me to a screen the asks to log in using Reddit. I tap that log in, and I don't get the screen where all the colleges are listed (which you then tap the designated school and your turn is over). Instead, it takes back to some screen asking to sign in using Reddit, its got a football turf backdground and some other fields/links that are all cattywhompits.
can you help a Michigan brother out or is it just my tough luck, need a newer phone, something like that?
Have you tried a different browser?
the phone only comes with one i think: safari. its an older iphone that is otherwise working fine.
There’s a chrome app for iPhone in the App Store if you want to try switching
Other option would be to, after getting assignment, open new window and type in collegefootballrisk.com, log in with reddit, and make your move. It sounds like this won't necessarily fix your issue (since the link from michigancfbrisk should take you there), but it might be worth a shot.
had same issue. My solution to this was:
1) I copy the link for the “correct” risk screen first before i log in
2) i sign in using reddit
3) it takes me to the football field screen
4) i paste and go To the original link in phone browser
5) i log on again using reddit and it takes you you to a screen with a goofy dude,on it and asks you to allow reddit access or not. hit the “allow” button and that will take you to the correct risk web site and you will be logged in to make your turn
PITA but once you do it acouple times takes less than 1 minute to make your turn
I get to step 5, and it puts me back on the 'log in' screen when I hit 'allow'
argh
Do you have an adblocker installed? You might need to whitelist collegefootballrisk.com and michigancfbrisk.com
no adblocker. i'm sure its operator error.

I just keep the two pages open. My cue to see my assignment is when this post is made everyday. I then check my assignment on that page then go to the page where all the locations/college logos are at and complete said assignment. Not sure if that’ll work for you xtra but it’s worth a shot.
Yesterday I did the 1 minute routine. Signed in, got my assignment, went to the site, clicked on my assignment, did something else. Wake up the next morning and my stars were gone and my streak went back to zero. Cool. I guess it didn't accept my click, and I didn't notice. It's happened before, but this time I didn't reload the page and try again, because a button click seems like a pretty simple thing, right? Next Tuesday I'll be able to do something other than defend, I guess.
Wow, same thing happened to me, down from 3 stars to 1, wtf.
Mostly red map.
4*!! Heyoo!
