Tom,
Great work on commishing last nights auction. I know there were a few issues, but actually, the only major one wasn't FantasyAuctioneer's fault, but someone who lost power (which is a risk for anyone!).
This years auction actually had less tech issues than last years so I am hopeful they will continue to improve the software.
Per your comments last night, I know these online auctions are tough, but they are a unique product in the industry and really important way for the NFBC to build up people to compete in the live auctions IMHO.
Regards,
Chris aka Spyhunter

It was an extremely competitive draft. I think KJ Duke and I just couldn't give each other a break. Very hard to get a steal. My one steal I like is $2 for Marcum. The Eckstein bid was a software induced mistake.
The cost of the power/speed guys was incredible. I did make one mistake and didn't hit the draft button on time for a bid on Brandon Phillips as well. Obviously speed is a giant issue...
