Breaking news for iPhone users at NFBC

Post by Deadheadz » Sun Mar 16, 2014 11:05 am

Another manager just told me about a browser that allows the iPhone to use the NFBC Flash draft room.

Puffin Free Browser in the App Store

Tried it...so far it seems to be working. Yippee!

Krys pointed out a small problem.

We're not able to type in the draft room search box or chat box. It does let you type in the Player Search up in the top right of every NFBC page, even in the draft room.

I'm able to select a player in the list and add him to the queue as well as turn the auto off and on. Scrolling the player list and the chat doesn't seem that easy but works if you experiment with where you click.

Not great for a draft with 60 second picks.

Puffin Free has a limited number of flash page views before it says you must buy the full version to continue.
ie. crippleware


Update: I bought the full version and I'm able to type in draft room chat and in draft list player search.
On an iPad it might work well enough to do an express draft. iPhone with small screen might be more challenging but still possible in a pinch.
