Slow Draft Auto pick problems...

Any word on when this will be fixed? Most of the league members are unable to set their picks to auto. After we click auto and leave, we arrive back to find auto was somehow switched back off. Major problem.

Better yet would be the feature that has been talked about for what seems like a year already - auto pick for one pick option. Most teams are unwilling to go on auto for fear of several quick picks and being stuck on auto for the second pick. Any update on the implementation of this feature? It would be a very nice addition to the slow draft experience.

There are auto-select picks being made in each and every draft, so I'm curious as to if this is a widespread problem.

I'm in #4 and if you check thw chat logs the owners have been talking about the problem for over 35 rounds now. i guess no one reported it. Also, I just started SD #6 and anotehr ownwer with the # 2 spot logged on and said that he had the same problem( he set up auto, but it did not work so he was on the clock for severl hours before he realized). he also mentioned he had the same problem in another SD he is involved in.

I've had a problem with the auto-draft button a couple of times. If you check auto-draft, and stay logged in, it does not seem to be a problem. But, a couple times, I have been on a public computer while travelling, I have to log off when I leave, and auto-draft has not worked. (that just happened twice to me, it has also worked fine a couple of times to check auto and then log off)

I've sent the problem into tech. Hopefully, we can get that corrected soon.

Thanks, guys.

Geoff,

I have had the problem come up for me probably 5-7 times across two different drafts.

i click the check box by auto, wait, look, listen, double check that box is still checked, triple check, wait some more, and then, after making sure the box is definitely checked, I tentatively close the draft room and go about my other business.

About 5-7 times so far the auto has failed to work...

I reported an auto draft problem in SD#3 on 12/24, so this has been an ongoing problem for at least ten days.
