Re: MLB Season Postponed?

It only takes a few owners to be skittish that a draft/auction can’t occur. I think it is more likely than not Opening Day will be pushed. Given that, we should delay all live events until we know what is what. My guess is that is what happens. We can always do these things online.

Re: Corona virus - NO BULLSHIT Thread

Greg - the $2500 auction is the only nyc auction I’m in this year. If you need a body for whatever reason I’m around.

Re: Coronavirus NFBC Travel

Coronavirus?! You have a better chance of contracting and dying from the flu in the next few weeks. Repeating the comments of Putin's ball-licker is irresponsible, Mike. Early estimates say Covid-19 is ten to 20 times more lethal than the flu and its communicability is still not clear. 20 times mor...

Auctions can be done online. You just have to listen to Greg’s voice “going once, going twice, sold”
An issue could be if you’re at the live events doing both in one day, you have to have a laptop with you if the auction goes online.

Re: Coronavirus NFBC Travel

For drafts it’s less of an issue given they can be live/online. Auctions are another matter.

We have the Griffith ballrooms at Park MGM for Monday all day and we won't have live drafts on Tuesday. I'm still looking for space for Wednesday as most hotels won't release just one ballroom 60 days out. Park MGM and Aria are both completely booked for convention space, so I'm talking with the Be...

Re: Rules for 2020

Without giving out the results what were the percentages and how many responded? I didn't look yesterday, but I think over 50% responded to the survey and there isn't a majority consensus either way. We definitely have learned from the early results, but let's see what even more players say. What I...

Suggestion: Notifications

The pick notification lists the league number. That number is useless to owners because we never see/use that identifier. If you’re only doing one draft at a time then it really doesn’t mean much but if you’re doing more than one at a time, I’d suggest instead to include the team name and/or the rou...

“Vegas, TBD.” Does this mean we do not know yet where this will be held in Vegas? Is Park MGM out? For Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, yes we are still in search of one ballroom each night. Park MGM has a full facility conference starting on Monday and continuing through the week, so no go there. We...

Re: Timeouts

Possibly. We had another timeout at 8:40pm EST and it ended exactly on 00 as I was checking against my phone time.

I have no idea if you have data on your end if it goes to the second to verify.

Timeouts

Tom/Greg/Darik, A little while ago an owner in our 2-hr DC league (#1566) timed out but I don't think he was allotted the full two hours. I was waiting for the auto pick to kick in and it appeared it did with about 40-50 seconds to go. On this I could be wrong because the timer appearing on my phone...

Re: Rules for 2020

No, because any game 162s required to be played after the regular season ends on Sunday are SCHEDULED games that had to be played. If a Sunday game 162 is postponed to Monday and is required to be played, that game should count. Sometimes that game 162 isn’t the game Sunday at the end of the season...

Re: More White Space: Roster tab

A data issue I noticed in this section.

I realize you’re putting the assumed single most frequent position in this section for...
