MyFantasyLeague.com Teams Up With NFFC For Auction Software
Posted: Wed Jul 27, 2011 9:35 am
The room worked for the most part. It is not as pretty as some others, but I don't particularly care about that. The only appearance problem I have, that affects my ability to draft effectively, has been noted several times and that is with the Chat box.
1.) If the Chat box can not be made smaller, then switch it with the box below it that shows the teams and their money. That information is much more important than the Chat box.
2.) When time ran out to nominate a player, the pick was skipped. Should it be that way?
I prefer that it be skipped, but I don't think that is the best way to go.
If the draft goes long because someone was late or had connection problems, and therefore someone else has to leave before it is over, they should be able to queue up 40 WRs and automatically have nominated whatever WR is at the top of their queue when they time out each time.
Otherwise, they could end up with only 16 players on their team and/or without a K or DEF.
They would be at a disadvantage through no fault of their own.
3.) If time runs out to nominate, and a player is suppose to be auto-nominated, hopefully, the player comes out of the queue and not the list of players.
4.) We did not go long enough to see what happens when we get down to $1 players and no one can bid.
Is there 45 seconds to nominate followed by 15 seconds of no bidding or does someone nominate thier player and then just get him without having to wait for the 15 second timer?
If this would require a change, I understand that this would require reprogramming and would hope that it could be added for next year.
5.) Another change that may need to wait until next year was mentioned during the draft, but I forget who said it. There are words that say something about nominating while we are waiting for someone to nominate. Can those words (I don't remember what they were) be replaced with the name of whoever is suppose to nominate?
If the Chat box were made smaller or switched with the box below it that has the "YES" for who can nominate, then #5 isn't necessary.
All-in-all, if a draft were held tonight, I believe that the draft would be able to be completed without anyone getting the short end of the stick because of functionality, but I also believe that it would take longer than usual because there would be more rollbacks than usual.
Thank you,
Mark
