March 17th $125 9pm Sat Draft Order?

Bobby D · Post by **Bobby D** » Thu Mar 11, 2010 3:44 pm

When can we expect to receive draft orders for this league? This league has been filled for weeks now. I am not sure why the draft orders are such a problem this year. It seems like Sat leagues have taken a back seat to all of the other stuff that was added this year. Seems as if the staff has taken on more than it can handle. Very disappointing if adding all these extra leagues and features is going to affect how leagues are run in the future. Knowing your draft position early provides valuable time to plan your draft. It appears many people are being given less than adequate time to prepare based on poor management of this new system. Sorry, this is just how I see it.

I have to agree with Bobby D,it does seem like they are expanding faster than they seem to be able to handle, here we are days away from the draft and we still don't know what our draft order is! Last year we knew maybe 10-14 days ahead of time.

I'm also in that draft. For me the worst thing is no one even replied to your post. At least we still have the 15 team format and the high level of competiton but other than that the real charm of NFBC seems to be fading.

Everyone in this draft should've received an e-mail reminder to set their KDS. Was that not the case?

i can't speak for every one else, but, i had set my KDS along time ago from the "My Teams" menu, if i had recieved the email i probably deleted it because i had already set them.

The draft order for this league should now be posted on your team homepage.

Could someone confirm that?

I put in an e-mail, and hopefully we can get this resolved ASAP.

I haven't received an email reminder to set my KDS and I check my junk folder daily. So I have not received anything regarding KDS for this league. My KDS however has been set for weeks now. At this point, it looks like we won't be notified of our drafting position until Sunday or Monday. A whole 3 or 4 days in advance. If that is what we should expect going forward, at least say so in the rules. I am sure most of us expected to be notified of our draft position at least a week in advance. I am sure all of the Main event entries will know their draft position a week in advance at the earliest. Yet here we are waiting to find out.

actually at this point IF we were to get our draft positions on sunday we would have a whole 2 days advance notice before the draft.
