No it's not. Let's see when this gets fixed for good and decide on the FAAB deadline. You folks have lost 2+ hours to this, so I think it's almost inevitable that we need to extend FAAB tonight. Let's just get this fixed.

Extend the FAAB to tomorrow night or when the webiste is fixed - B/C this FAAB period ending today is a mess and it would not be fair to even one player who could not get their bids in or they way they want.

I can personally live with no live scoring if it scores me great FAAB BIDS tonight!!! :mrgreen:
You pretty much punted starting pitching so you need to find as many landmines as you can each week.

Got any suggestions for me Shawn? Or for subscribers only? :D

Can’t change rules just for some owners. I don’t get to redraft and not pick multipositional guys due to the website not being able to handle it...

We have 7,000+ FAAB teams in the NFBC. We will extend FAAB if we have to tonight because already we've lost three hours of FAAB. Let's first see when this is live again and make the call. But this is on us to get it live in time for 7,000+ teams to digest today's news and have a functional site that takes free agent bids and first of all loads the freaking free agent lists. :x

I'll update here as soon as I know more and we'll send out an email to everyone tonight with the decision to get this right.

Lol I can't tell if you're trolling or not, but this take is ridiculous. The free agent lists aren't even official until Sunday morning, so if you're done with your bidding on Saturday, then you're doing it wrong.

Well first of all it's not working . Every time I get the bid close to what I want it goes and changes it to something o don't want all on its own.

ill just chime in that i cant get the site to load at all and im only on message boards because i clicked on the link before the site went to the page not loading page.

i think we should extend faab deadline to tomorrow, just my take.

also i agree the colors of the faab are hard to look at and i prefer the old system which was difficult enough to navigate. i think most people would rather have less "bells and whistles" and have a simple straight forward faab page that allows you to view 25 players at a time as for the color how about something dark on white as opposed to light blue

anyways, keeping an eye out for an update

Okay, try the site now. It looks like free agents are flowing in now.

Please let me know how the site is responding via free agency and we'll make a call on the FAAB deadline soon. We can't fix that damn conditional bid bug, but let's fight through that tonight and make sure we have time to get our FAAB bids in. We are going to extend the deadline as we were down almost four hours.

Moved back 2 hours to midnight ET. It should say as much above your current bids
