Site slow again?

Do we have extra time, Tom? I'd rather input them than send 5 different leagues changes by e-mail to Greg. Thanks for the help.

Thanks again, you beat me.

I'll be back with the length of the extension when I hear back from Greg. thanks tom.

I'm still waiting to hear from Greg. He's having dinner with his family. Once I hear from him I'll let everyone know. It can't hurt to e-mail him just to be safe, though.

How can people e-mail their bids if they are having problems seeing the free agents available.

Gordon Gekko · Post by **Gordon Gekko** » Sun Aug 05, 2007 11:53 am

if there is an extension, hopefully our bids that are already entered won't be exposed at 7pm!!!

Hope not GG. But I wouldn't be shocked

obviously cant extend if players are awarded/ bids shown

Tom Kessenich · Post by **Tom Kessenich** » Sun Aug 05, 2007 11:56 am

STATS has the problem identified and FAAB will be open for another hour until 8 p.m. EST. There may be some site repair but bidding will be available. E-mail your bids to Greg at [email]greg@[email protected][/email] if you can't access the site.

so please explain to me why we are getting an extension this week and were not allowed one last week? same problem.... obtw GG here is what you said last Sunday when some of us were blocked out of the transaction site for the last 30 mins. "It was slow for me , but was still able to get bids in. guess it pays not to wait until the last hour or two to enter bids."

Again all the players are taken. I might be able to land JJ Putz this week.

C'mon STATS!!!!

I can't see the free agents brain surgeon

Give me AROD for $ 5

Waste 4 + hours of my life and expect me to be nice. **** you

Cherokee Nation · Post by **Cherokee Nation** » Sun Aug 05, 2007 12:02 pm

Now it opened up and shows Erik Bedard, J.J. Putz, Saito and Valverde as free agents. Can I bid on them

Red Sox Nation · Post by **Red Sox Nation** » Sun Aug 05, 2007 12:02 pm

Now we're locked out from bidding!

Gordon Gekko · Post by **Gordon Gekko** » Sun Aug 05, 2007 12:03 pm

TOM: STATS has locked the bidding!!! don't let them run the FAAB!!!

Tom Kessenich · Post by **Tom Kessenich** » Sun Aug 05, 2007 12:03 pm

It will be back open. FAAB's deadline is another hour due to the extension.

GOD Loves You · Post by **GOD Loves You** » Sun Aug 05, 2007 12:04 pm

Since the common sense questions seem to get overlooked....

For those who are never on the MB's, how are they supposed to know there's an extension or that they can e-mail their bids?

I'm sure these owners just gave up and are fuming right now.

For those who aren't able to even access the free agents, how can they send an e-mail with their bids without knowing who is available?

Just my thoughts, considering a lot of owners will fall into the above categories.

Cherokee Nation · Post by **Cherokee Nation** » Sun Aug 05, 2007 12:05 pm

I have 2 teams that I did not get finished placing free agent bids although I started 4 + hours ago.....the site will now no longer allow me to make bids, past the deadline, and the only free agent list I got to look at in the last 30 minutes showed the stars of the league as free agents that I could "place bid" on.

Red Sox Nation · Post by **Red Sox Nation** » Sun Aug 05, 2007 12:06 pm

Lets just hope STATS doesn't process the bids! I don't have much faith that they will get this fixed.

DOUGHBOYS · Post by **DOUGHBOYS** » Sun Aug 05, 2007 12:08 pm

Tom, it still will not allow us to make any moves.

DOUGHBOYS · Post by **DOUGHBOYS** » Sun Aug 05, 2007 12:15 pm

Ground control to Major Tom, our circuits dead...can you hear me Major Tom, can you hear me Major Tom....

Tom Kessenich · Post by **Tom Kessenich** » Sun Aug 05, 2007 12:16 pm

I've been waiting to hear back from STATS. I'm still here. The bids will not be processed until after the extension. You should be able to make your bids and the extension runs through 8 p.m. EST. Again, our apologies for all of this.

DOUGHBOYS · Post by **DOUGHBOYS** » Sun Aug 05, 2007 12:17 pm

Fixed, Thanks Tom.
