This is the first time for FAAB and we want to make sure everything is run correctly. We know what first impressions mean to this crowd. ;) I don't know the ETA, but John said they'd run tonight. Just let them double and triple check everything on this first run to make sure we have it perfect.



Enjoy the game and the bids will be released tonight. I just don't know what time yet. In future weeks, we'll be able to release them much sooner. Let us just get this done right before releasing them. Thanks for your patience.

And what's up with the MB slowdown - is this the downside of running the MB over the game site?

Maybe we should all just do 45 round slow drafts with no FAAB

Having 9 teams to get through, check the FAAB and set lineups, having to be out of the house by 7am EST this is really unacceptable to ask everyone to continue to wait. You should have set an earlier FAAB time for the first week if you expected to hold it back for 3-5 hours! :(

Got no live stats in XP (desk top) or Windows 7 (laptop). Refresh, hard refresh, re-boot, crapcleaner, nothing lets me view live stats. Is live stats live for all leagues?

It will take more than a Shawn Childs live chat to break todays record of at least 275 people on here.

It took me 30 minutes to post this as all those rooms full of servers must have been on break.

Well, it's 11:30 ET and I have to, you know, work in the morning. I've not complained about things so far, but the fact that the FAs arent up yet is really amateurish. This is disappointing. I, like many, have a large number of teams and probably won't have time or ability to properly set my lineups for tomorrow by 1 ET. Really unfortunate.
