I'm flying there on Tuesday for some things and look forward to seeing all of this next week. I'll gladly provide an update. But the IT guys have done a great job with the draft software and I'm looking forward to rolling that out today. I'm very anxious to see the back-end features next week.



So far we haven't let you down and we will exceed expectations here as well.

100. Mock draft site



I too remain eager to see the new FAAB system. It's almost March and still nothing. :eek:



I'm hoping the resources working on the mock draft software aren't the ones who are supposed to be working on the FAAB system.



Greg (or Ryan) - Please post a date when the FAAB system is set to be demo'd to us. Back in Novemeber, I was under the impression it was to be done in JANUARY. thank you.

Go back to dropping off water bottles. no one said i was the spokesman (except you). now get off the thread before you hijack and ruin another one, jackass. my guess is you'll make another post (or more), proving you are a GG and Shandler stalker. john - seek professional help, please.



sorry and good day.

Mark, I don't know where you got the impression that the FAAB would be demo'd in January. We are working hard on everything and hopefully we'll have a better timetable for you soon on all of this. But everything is progressing fine and we are testing everything ourselves. I don't think we've asked any of the NFBC members to be beta testers for this as the staff is doing this just fine.



Ryan can provide the timetable as he's closer to this than I am. But all is coming together.

Ryan can provide the timetable as he's closer to this than I am. But all is coming together. Yes, that was what I was referring to. Something about nfbc owners being beta testers (in the January) timeframe. if you are beta testing, you should be near completion.



in any event, i'm sure there are some fine beta testers at Fanball, however, they likely haven't used a FAAB system like we've been accustomed to. i woulda thought actual NFBC owners would have made PERFECT beta testers. we know what we had and what we want. what do I know...



okay, hopefully Ryan can post the date the FAAB system should be available for us. thanks again.
