software for online drafts

I'm sure the answer to this must be yes, but just to confirm, if we rank players under the "draft prep" link, will our saved rankings be imported into the draft room on draft day?



Thanks.

Is There Interest In A 15-Team Online Championship?

Some more feedback: Yes, I am interested in a 15-team online championship this year if you can offer some Saturday draft dates. Otherwise difficult to participate with a standard work week and a 6-hour time difference! Thanks for considering it!

Overall Standings for Satellite Leagues

OK, thanks Tom. I'm not looking for an extra overall prize. Just thought it might be fun to see how we are doing beyond our own league. But, if it's not practical or doesn't make sense, then no problem. Have a good one,

Overall Standings for Satellite Leagues

Any chance we could get this option for us satelliters? Would be fun to keep track of and see how we're doing overall. Looks like there are overall standings for just about every other category.



Regards,

John

My Main Event Teams - Sophomore Season

Great posts on your two teams. You started out with some amazing 1-2 picks in both drafts. I can only dream of Kemp-Rollins. I'm also with you on Brett Myers. Although I'm not with Brett and his 10 hits he has given up so far tonight. I have Myers in one of my leagues, so hope he does return to form...

Summary of issues

While not as urgent of a problem, I would include the fact that the rules for satellite leagues stated the first FAAB for leagues that drafted this last weekend would not take place until next weekend. This rule was changed by way of a post on page 6 of a message board thread. I know that many indiv...

Timeout NFBC folks

Ditto. I bid $1 on a player. No one else bid on him, apparently, but the bid does not look like it was ever processed because the player is still sitting in free agency land. A different bid I submitted was processed. Shrug. Hope it's fixed soon.

Constructive Criticism on my Sat Team....Please?

Roman, you might want to get your FAAB in ASAP. I saw Greg post in the general discussion forum that all leagues are running FAAB today regardless of draft date. You might want to check it out, just to be sure.

I always enjoy analyzing teams, so.....

I like the approach you took in this draft. I took a similar one in another league. This is my first year in NFBC, so we'll see how it holds up. I loaded up on the bats and threw a hail mary on pitching (Hanson, Floyd, W. Davis, Blanton, Duchscherer, G. Gonzalez, Meche, F. Paulino, Papelbon, B. Wagn...

Great, look forward to reading about your team. I agree with comments from Doughboy and you re Shandler's approach. Ultimately, I think you have to do your own analysis and come up with your own appropriate risk/reward balance and how any given pick fits in with the rest of your team/strategy. I'm c...

Constructive Criticism on my Sat Team....Please?

I also recently drafted out of the 14th slot in a satellite league. I'll post my team for comparison. Not for the purposes of debating who had the better draft, but rather because I find it interesting to compare with other teams drafting in the same position. I agree with the other comments about y...

GlennX--Enjoyed reading your post. Are you planning on following up with an analysis of your draft? Also, I note you mentioned towards the end that your core group of players must remain injury free. Ron Schandler recently discussed how he is going to avoid most players who have injury risk/history,...

I've tried that in the context of attempting to name my team, but it does not work. A window comes up and I enter a team name, but apparently it does not register in the system when I click save.

Thanks Greg and Richard. I must say that this is the only fantasy baseball venue I have seen where the founders/organizers have this much contact with the customers, so I appreciate that! I tried your suggestion, Richard, but it did not work for me. I am in a 13 March league. Perhaps in another day ...

Draft Orders for Sat drafts

I'm getting more confused as I read these posts...I'm supposed to draft next Sat. According to the Sat signup sheet, the league is full. My team says it is not assigned to a league, however. Should I be assigned to one by this point? If not, I'm assuming I'm not going to be getting any emails about ...
