Any idea when the rosters for the supers will be loaded?

Looks the the March 27th Super is loaded but not the March 21st

Correct Jeff. March 28th also not loaded.

Not sure why those leagues are the stepchildren!

They were done on MDC. Those leagues have been the last to be loaded. I think they'll be there today. I drafted one as well.

Yes, these league results did come from MDC.com and John is getting to these next. We are almost done, but unfortunately these are among the last ones to be loaded. Next year we'll have our own draft software for these teleconference leagues and the leagues will be loaded upon completion of the draft. Sorry for the delay folks, but we haven't forgotten about these two Supers.

Still Missing:





Super League from Sunday March 28th - 10am.



Live Double Plays -



A) Vegas March 26th - 5pm



B) Vegas March 27th - 7pm

BUMP.......

John is finishing these MDC.com leagues now. I'm not trying to make any alibis for why these take longer than our own inputted leagues, but they do. I apologize for the delay and I know John will be here all night again loading these last leagues, but they will get done. And there will probably even be some roster errors, but those simple facts shouldn't force someone to say trouble is on the horizon. But it will.



We'll get these all in the system, I promise. Good luck tonight John. Tomorrow will be a new day in the NFBC.



right now we are running 14 online drafts at once and we're all hanging in there pretty good. The horizon doesn't look so bad, but you never know. I'll check it out in the morning again.



Thanks for your patience all and I'm sorry to the Super Leagues. Next year we'll input them immediately.

Greg, I've supported you and this group from the day I got here. Go back and read every post I've done. Maybe I pissed off a couple of folks but it shouldn't have been you.



I'd prefer to do this privately, your PM is full. Don't realize why you're doing to me at this point.



Good luck

Greg,



Honestly, I could care less about when the teams are inputed as long as we have enough time to inform the tech squad of any problems before the season starts. I don't understand why everyone's panties are in a bunch because the leagues aren't loaded. How much time do people need to adjust lineups and make FA selections?



I think Greg what is happening, at least what I can garner from the message boards, is a break down in trust which is terribly unfortunate. I am not condoning some of the inflammatory posts which feed the mob, but it is safe to say there have been some hiccups and people are nervous. However, what member statesmen and newbies alike must remember and understand is that you guys pulled off a great weekend of live drafts and sat and phone ins, as you have always done, and until you prove me wrong, I have 100% confidence in you and your staff to make this another fantastic year.



Life is good. You are no longer a Mom and Pop shop but you are doing your best to greet everyone at the door and quite frankly I appreciate and respect that about you and your staff. I wish you the best and ask those that are new and old for that matter to have some faith.



To those that question remember this: Greg and Tom have an excellent track record. Not only are they talented pioneers of their trade, they actually care deeply about their membership.



Greg, you have set the bar high and you and Tom are now victims of your previous success.



Be patient people and have some faith. You will be rewarded.

Be patient people and have some faith. You will be rewarded. Great post Matt and I totally understand. I also understand why folks are nervous. It's as if they think/know/want Fanball to fail. And we're not going to let that happen. And as you say, I wouldn't be sticking my neck on the line once again if I had any inkling that we'd fail on the back-end.



Heck, Tom and I are in our 14th hour of working tonight. I had my wife bring me some food because one owner couldn't log in and I'm on the phone for him for 4+ hours making his picks. Yet, the doom and gloomers just have to think the worst about us.



We'll have a teleconference at 10 am tomorrow and go over the changes that have been suggested today. I hope John's team will have all rosters inputted and if anyone has any problems with their lineups I'll be available on Easter Day for them to call me. Tom and I are always accessible, but like you said that is no longer good enough. Our track record means nothing heading into this season.



Sorry for the delay on the Super League. We'll get it up and tomorrow I'll have more answers to the questions folks have posed today. We have the free agent system in place; now it's making it better.

For the record: I'm still working, too.



(Just in case the bosses are reading)

Super League is loaded. Thanks.

Geoff, we'd be freakin' lost with out you!!! Yeoman's job these past three weeks. Folks have no idea how much work these 120+ online leagues are.



You're here to stay, so get ready for a long, strange journey together!!

Just an FYI, as I try to set lineup in the Sunday (Vegas) 4PM live DP, I receive the message: "You do not have a roster for this period, please contact your commissioner."
