well looks like FAAB ran very well tonight..except my FAAB page is still showing my bids for this week.

Gonna reboot and hope it was just a cookie/temp issue.

A good run...

If I could, I'd like to request two fixes. One for next week, one for next year.

For next week, can the dropped players names be alphabetical by their LAST names and not their first.It is a lot easier and just more professional.

For next year, instead of having to save each list before tinkering with the next, can it be so that we are free to go from list to list and just get a prompt asking if we want to save, instead of being required to save?

I thought it applied to this week. I cannot believe this late in the season, with all the documented problems, we are still having these issues.

I'm sorry to hang out my dirty laundry but this is unacceptable.

I mean, isn't it someone's job to post and edit/remove posts? Or is Fanball already on to the business of Fantasy Football and making money?

Disappointing.

A prompt before leaving the page would be useful.

It didn't happen to me this week. But did, earlier in the season.

[/QUOTE]That is what i was afraid was going to happen as i never left the FAAB page and when i click saved and it finally reloaded it was 3 minutes past the deadline and i still could edit my list and what not...thought for sure i might lose all my bids.

Defo confusing at the end of the deadline

A prompt before leaving the page would be useful. Kennedy IS on my team (according to the lineup grid), but neither the winning bid, nor the runner-up bid is listed in the bid history

Disappointing. don't feel 'sorry' for posting your disappointment. there's NO excuse for this lack of Fanball planning/execution.

hopefully no one read the fanball message and relied on it. still on the league home now...

Because of technical problems on the NFBC site tonight, the Free Agent deadline has been pushed back to 9:30 pm ET. Winning FAAB bids will run and be announced at 10:00 pm ET.

9:15...still can't set lineups for next week.

Gekko · Post by **Gekko** » Sun Aug 01, 2010 2:22 pm

the FAAB message is on all my slow draft leagues as well. and the kicker, i can't set any lineups for slow drafts either. those are locked!!

"Set lineup is currently disabled while we process waivers. This page will be back up within the hour."

[/QUOTE]Mark, did you adjust your bid last minute before the deadline? This happened to me once when I did, so I'm guessing it might be a glitch that happens occassionally with last minute bid adjustments.
