The FOFC Keeper League - 2009 Season - Page 3

PackerFanatic · 08-10-2009, 09:56 AM

Maybe I am just blind, but where are the draft results? I only see what pick we are on, but not who has been drafted.

PackerFanatic · 08-10-2009, 09:58 AM

Ah nevermind, finally found it.

Lathum · 08-10-2009, 10:01 AM

Cubroy is up

samifan24 · 08-10-2009, 10:42 AM

Quick question: I've set a draft queue of about 5 players just to start out but my team isn't marked with "pre-draft selection made" on the draft page. How do I tell it to go ahead and draft from that list? Or does "pre-draft selection made" mean something different?

cubboyroy1826 · 08-10-2009, 10:43 AM

Against my better judgement i will take:

1.4 LaDanian Tomlinson.

same thing for me.

I am just hoping PF makes his pick before I have to go to class, I would hate to stall things for 4 hours

Don't confuse "My Draft List" with pre-draft selections. The draft list, I think, will only kick in when your time runs out. Pre-draft selections supposedly are picked right away. To do the pre-draft selections go to the "For Owners" menu at the top of the page and then select "Draft" from the drop down menu. There you can add players you want to pick in a particular round.

JAG · 08-10-2009, 10:52 AM

Go to 'My team page' and 'Make a draft or pre-draft pick'. Then you can add players to your queue.

JAG · 08-10-2009, 10:54 AM

For the record, both of the above options bring you to the same page.

I was just about to ask: how do I make my pick? Could they have buried the "draft player" option any more?

PackerFanatic · 08-10-2009, 11:02 AM

Glad we aren't using this site for our league, it seems really convoluted.

My pick is in, BTW.

Lathum · 08-10-2009, 11:04 AM

my pick is in also.

Gambled trading down but I figured Rodgers would be there still and I need the stability at QB. Nice to know I am set there for the next 3 years.

Of course this is the year Quinn goes nuts and puts up 4000 yards and 30 TDs

MikeVic · 08-10-2009, 11:08 AM

Can someone tell me how they're checking for taken players? I was just going to use the player search option, but just found out it doesn't even tell you if the dude is on a team!

Lathum · 08-10-2009, 11:10 AM

If you go to for owners/ my draft list it lists available players

johnnyshaka · 08-10-2009, 11:11 AM

On the left, click "Draft" from the League menu.

JAG · 08-10-2009, 11:11 AM

The Rosters page will tell you all the taken players, but I don't know if there's a drop-down list of taken players. If there is I didn't see it with a brief look.

PackerFanatic · 08-10-2009, 11:13 AM

You can also go to Reports > League > Draft to see the running list of draft picks.

Lathum · 08-10-2009, 11:19 AM

well happy picking all!

I'll be checking back in about 5 hours.

sterlingice · 08-10-2009, 11:38 AM

I should probably try my login. I forgot my laptop charger (well, technically the dongle between the charger and laptop) for the 4 days I was back in Kansas so time to catch back up

SI

samifan24 · 08-10-2009, 11:40 AM

This site we're using is so difficult to navigate.

i never actually found the "draft player" button...i just added the guy i wanted to my list and as soon as it was my turn, off it went.

Can you guys put this through on the FleaFlicker site? I was trying to update the draft over there and have no way of putting this trade through over there.

MikeVic · 08-10-2009, 02:03 PM

Thanks guys. Is there a full compiled keeper list somewhere? This site is still driving me bonkers.

MikeVic · 08-10-2009, 02:05 PM

Oh nevermind, I see a roster list.

Done (just need Lathum to accept, though I'm not sure if there's an amount of time that has to pass before the trade goes through).

Lathum · 08-10-2009, 03:31 PM

accepted.

One damn pick is all we got through since I have been gone.

Jeez, it's not like the doctor has patients to see or anything

Eaglesfan27 · 08-10-2009, 07:01 PM

I set a draft list and thought it would use it. I was wrong. Sorry for the delay, my pick is made.

Eaglesfan27 · 08-10-2009, 07:03 PM

Dola -

I'm no longer able to surf from work (except to a very few sites), so I'll be relying on lists throughout the draft.

did you catch up on the thread and see how they are used?

Most of us were doing it wrong.

Now, I have

Lathum · 08-10-2009, 10:46 PM

So I am hoping the delays today are caused by the fact most of us had no idea how to use the software.

sterlingice · 08-10-2009, 11:51 PM

Sorry, guys- I'm on call for work this week so on top of catching up from being gone last week- that's getting in the way of things. I should be more on top of stuff from this point on, provided servers don't need fixing

SI

Lathum · 08-11-2009, 10:14 AM

So is there an actual clock that shows how much time someone has to make their pick anywhere?

MikeVic · 08-11-2009, 10:20 AM

Yeah I thought during normal hours, we were setting some sort of limit...

MikeVic · 08-11-2009, 10:21 AM

Err nm, looks like there's a 12-hour limit according to the first post.

sterlingice · 08-11-2009, 11:00 AM

Bump- less than 1 hour to go, I think

SI

The clock is supposed to be off during the evening meaning that ISiddiqui should have a good bit more time, though I have no idea how the draft will handle this or if it was even an option for TLK to set.

ISiddiqui · 08-11-2009, 12:08 PM

I believe I fell prey to the not knowing how lists work (compared to pre-draft picks). I picked the guy remaining off my list, btw.

sterlingice · 08-11-2009, 12:42 PM

Made my pick so Vic's Heroes is up

SI

MikeVic · 08-11-2009, 12:59 PM

Done.

PackerFanatic · 08-11-2009, 01:01 PM

I think it is silly that the draft list does not get updated when a guy is picked.

MikeVic · 08-11-2009, 01:03 PM

Yeah I agree. I went into mine and saw T.O., Roy Williams, etc... and was excited. Pffft. Yeah right.

sterlingice · 08-11-2009, 02:45 PM

Also agreed. I was split between Houshme-- yeah, however he's spelled- and Jackson so since he went next, I guess I was looking at the right two for my pick.

SI

samifan24 · 08-11-2009, 03:37 PM

I'm going to pick here shortly. Sorry I was at work and right now I work retail and cannot get online during work hours.

Lathum · 08-11-2009, 04:26 PM

my pick is in, one of these days I'll hit on a rookie RB

cubboyroy1826 · 08-11-2009, 05:17 PM

Pick made it looks like we are back to Lathum.

Lathum · 08-11-2009, 07:08 PM

Pick is in.

Took Gostkowski. I know it was early but the trade I made gave me some flexibility to take a chance and I figured I would take the kicker that figures to have a boatload of points and a WR in the next round.

Hmm I figured something was wrong with the software when I saw you took a kicker.

MikeVic · 08-11-2009, 08:59 PM

Is it the last round yet?

johnnyshaka · 08-11-2009, 09:40 PM

I can't believe how fast it's going thus far.
