Re: INDIVIDUAL DRAFT CLOCKS

This is fine during the draft, but are we also going to see the avg time of a person when we sign up? I still say the 24 clock with some type of late night stoppage is the answer. More drafts, less aggravation.

Re: INDIVIDUAL DRAFT CLOCKS

Just out of curiosity, what overnight time works for everybody? 3am to 6am EST? It has to be late enough, or the west coast drafters get screwed.

INDIVIDUAL DRAFT CLOCKS

Under a prior thread about next year's planned improvements, Greg mentioned that we should expect to see individual (24 hour?) draft clocks in the Draft Champions leagues. This is the best idea I've heard yet. This will be the best thing to happen to these leagues since they started. I'm tired of be...

DRAFT CHAMPION TOTALS???

If this answer has been previously posted, I apologize, but I can't find it. How many teams are in the Draft Champion Leagues and what is the updated prize pool? The season is almost upon us and we need to know. Thanks!

Tom, I do not have satellite radio, but wouldn't mind checking out the show. Is it possible to store/link those shows on this site for everyone to hear?

Re: ELIMINATING THE LUCK FACTOR FROM THE NFBC

I like this idea and would be in favor of it in any and all formats as long as I were picking the final lineup and not the computer.

Re: Looking For Feedback On NFBC Draft Champions

Todd, I think you are way off base in your concerns about personal clocks. If someone runs out of time for whatever reason, it is only right that he/she suffer the consequences. I am sick and tired of douchebags who make everyone wait 7 hours for half their picks. The integrity of the competition wi...

Re: Looking For Feedback On NFBC Draft Champions

If it can be done, I LOVE the idea of individual clocks. That should stop all the whining and complaining (some justified) about inconsiderate owners. This actually seems the fairest way to run these leagues! DO IT!!!

Re: What Technical Improvements Would You Like To See?

It's been at least two years since we were able to click on an owner's name and see the results for all of his NFBC teams. I loved this feature and would like to see it return! Our history is important and it's nice to be able to size up opponents, start debates on better owners for HOF status, etc.

Re: Live Scoring - Stats Presentation

Old version was much better, except for the loading times and bugs. The new version is faster, but hard to read. As several posters have previously stated, we need the old version back with the speed upgrade of the new presentation.

Why not poll everybody about having 1000 IP minimum? I suspect there will be an overwhelming mandate to raise it.

Re: NFBC Rules Changes Discussion For 2013

Raise the limit. AT LEAST 1000, but 1100 is better. Yes, this is fantasy, but 90% of the people playing would like the game to somewhat mirror reality. Also, I agree with the sentiment that it doesn't make sense to protect a tiny percentage of the people trying to game the system.

I prefer 1000 IP to better mirror reality, but I can live with 900 - just don't lower it!

Need a clarification here. What is the deadline for the first week? Wed 4/4 is not listed on the roster page. Is it part of the first week or the second week?
