Hey there ...
Weekend League will be OPEN on Thursday, September 5th at 4:30PM ET. This is why you don't see it as OPEN at this time. Hope this helps.

Hey The-Sporty-Hero,
Thanks for the message. I always appreciate it during times like this when we think about people's safety. I understand content is important, but safety of human life is paramount. Appreciate ya man!

Hey KingKiloGram,
I am not sure what kind of server related issues you are having, but have you tried to contact help.ea.com to have them investigate your account history?

Hey Rollhumps,
The studio is closed today. Unfortunately, we cannot predict the storm, but we have taken every precaution for employee safety. We will be back in the studio starting tomorrow, Thursday, September 5th. We will need to ensure the audit is complete and some changes to the win requirements to WL due to something that happened this weekend. Once we take care of all of that, then we will work on getting the WL Weekly and Monthly Rewards out to players.
We know how important this is and we will work to get these out as soon as possible. Follow @EA_KRAELO on Twitter and @EASPORTS_MUT for future details. Thanks!

Hey SteelersJake,
That is really odd that you cannot see the Ultimate Challenge. The missions showed up during the weekend starting last Friday on 4PM ET and they were taken down this Monday at 10AM ET. If you didn't see them past this time it is because the Ultimate Challenges are LTD (Limited Time) in nature and they are only up for a short period of time. You have to complete them during that window.
If you have any further issues, please contact help.ea.com so they can investigate your account.

Madden Roster updates may experience delays
The EA Studio has been closed all week due to Hurricane Dorian. It's supposed to reopen this morning, so as of now, i'm not sure if it will be released today. When we get word, we will be sure and post it here on the forums. Thanks and have a good day.
