When I try to move a conditional bid I get the msg "Bids are Locked".

Someone please post the URL to the old FAAB.

Windows Phone 8 can't open the menus on NFBC, all you get is Transaction History from the Transactions tab.
When there were Bid on Player buttons you could get to FAAB pretty easily. I hope they come back.

We're looking at it now. It looks like it locked early; we'll open it up ASAP. As KJ said, the od FAAB still is open.

Scroll to the bottom of your free agent page and there is a link there that takes you to the old FAAB setup. Just click on the Click Here button. We will have this open soon.

Scroll all the way to the end of the new page and there is a link to the old version. The great thing about that is you need to do this for every team you need to work on faab;

We just unlocked it. You can now make your bids again. Deadline is 10 pm ET.

Sorry about that. I'm not sure why it locked early, but it was obviously our mistake. It has been corrected now and going forward.

An iPad doesn't work on the old FAAB with the old setup. It does work on the new FAAB setup, which is now open again. Sorry for the confusion everyone. Try it again Will.

Anytime we have a screwup like this, everyone has a right to bitch. It shouldn't happen and make Sundays tougher for you folks. Sorry about that and hopefully everyone still has enough time to finish their bids. We apologize for the miscue on a busy Sunday and the mistake is on us.

Greg, I'm not able to get to the Free Agents page as I explained in my post regarding how Windows Phone 8 doesn't handle the drop down menus properly and I can't get there using Bid on Player because those buttons have been removed.

Please post a URL to either the new or old FAAB. I can get there that way and bookmark the page for future use.

Thanks again.

Buy a droid, that's what you get with Apple proprietary software rather than open source.

We have the functionality working, so let's improve the other areas of concern. I've asked KJ to work with you folks to send a detailed email of improvements and we'll get it done. Sure, we'll keep a link to the old FAAB all year just like we did with Live Scoring, but the ultimate goal is to get this new FAAB setup perfect with tweaks and improvements. Again, drive us there with a detailed update and we'll work with you to get it perfect. I'm confident we'll get it done together.
