In case Ed is busy, I highly doubt he's taking the day off or else he would have sent a notice in advance (I also don't think he ever takes a day off, lol). I would expect an update during the specified release window or sooner.
This might be a dumb question but are people still playing the games if they can't get the release line?
I generally don't. I don't have any statistical evidence, but it feels like a high % of Y, RAS and Dr H picks final scores are way to close to the number.
Only thing worse than missing the #, is getting betting the worse number and getting middled in the sense that RAS won, but your bet lost.

I've had one game where the line release vs closing line mattered, and that would have been a push instead of a loss.
Each 1/2 pt in a basketball side is worth around 2%. If they play as a 55% play at .5 worse you are about break even and at 1pt worse you are losing money.

Its not a flat 2% though, for example a half point is worth a lot more when the favorite is -2 than when the favorite is -8.
What number does your DB give you for the values of the 2 and the 8? I have both worth just about 4%, so 2% for the half points.
The 1 is worth a bit less and since the game can't end in a tie the -1 to +1 is only 1 point, not 2, but the 2% figure seems like a reasonable rule of thumb for sides until you're in double digit point spreads.
I use a local..and usually put plays in over phone..today they didn't answer the phone after the first ras play and i couldn't released on the internet...
The 3rd play didn't arrive for almost 6 minutes after the 2nd play. I was talking with an operator so long I was down to asking for Central America soccer lines. I still don't see the advantages of this as opposed to the old countdown page. Everything about this year just seems off.

Countdown page is much better.
In between releases stare at screen and twiddle thumbs. Can't take care of anything else as the new release could hit at anytime (or never if I don't get email).
It's pointless to not use download page.
Lines still moving instantly.
I can't be the only one that has a book that is taking these RAS off the board the second they are released, even if you are on the phone with them, then reducing limits to $200 for approximately 10 minutes.
Welcome to 2012 (or earlier). You've just been fortunate your books haven't done this long ago.

Thanks Durito, Do you have the #s for totals?

As of 8:11am PST still waiting for email #3.
I rely on the emails. I assume it was never sent.

(Prior to this no problems with RAS emails).
Third play 30 minutes late FWIW
White flag is in the air
