Oh I think we can do something else too. I can set it to autodraft at noon like I said and if it doesn't go by say 6pm I can change it to live and force it.
So what time will the auto take place?
That's the big question. I can set the auto to ready and then Yahoo says it takes between 1 and 72 hours to start and complete. I'm planning on pushing the ready button at noon.
hit it now
Between 1 and 72 hours? Weird.
Sweeeet, the sooner the better since kickoff is some 30 hours away.
Thanks for your work in setting up this league.
Agree - go ahead and kick it off if it could potentially take that long.
Your auto draft will be completed between now and 11:59 PM PT on Sunday, Sep 10.
ug
Wow - we need to keep an eye on it and keep it moving somehow.
Well if it doesn't draft by 6 I'll change it to live draft where I can set the time. Anyone unable to make it goes into automode.
I dont even see any indication on the site that the draft is in progress. Interesting.
yeah. no kidding...hmmmm
This is the message I got back:
"Your auto draft will be completed between now and 11:59 PM PT on Sunday, Sep 10."
Now I looked into live draft and the earliest we can have one is friday if I book it today.
so that kinda sucks then
I guess I'll just set mine to auto pick.
I'm setting mine to auto pick as well.
Note to everyone:
It looks like in order for this weekend to count we need to do a live draft. I've set it for 9:00 am Friday. Set your draft ranking if you wish. Otherwise the computer will pick for you if you are not there. Sorry that Yahoo didn't work as I thought, this is my first commish.
RE;The Draft..Leave as autopick
It won't take the full 72 hours and will be done before Thursday nights game.
Autopick will take longer and we miss the first game of the season.
It's random and the Sunday date is latest possible.
I have done Yahoo for years and it never took that long.
I joined another league yesterday too(Public League)and it filled up faster and the Automated Draft already happened.
Just be patient bro and it will be done when you wake up and we can start our play with Miami vs. Pitt.
There will already be a game played if we draft Friday. Kick it off and lets see if it completes.
Did you try NFL.com fantasy football. Its better then yahoo.
