Draft Discussion
« on: November 08, 2014, 02:05:53 PM »
Someone should be sending draft notifications to the league. There shouldn't be all these skipped picks going on in the first-round.

I have not received a single pick-notice since we began and it seems obvious that neither is anyone else and thus, all the "skipped picks".

Why isn't this happening?

Red Sox autopick Tyler Beede.

How did the Red Sox get two picks in the same round?

We don't need to send 1,200 PM's to the entire league regarding every pick.  We didn't do it last year and it worked out just fine.

The date of the draft has been posted for some time and a PM alerting the league was sent out.  If an owner can't be bothered to check the board once a week then we probably need to find a new owner for that team. 

Please don't post your comments or questions in the draft thread.  Thanks.

Every other league sends out notifications after every pick. No reason why this league can't. Not everyone can live on the website. Let's play a gentleman's game.

If people are notified it's their turn and still don't pick, then so be it, but let's at least give everyone that chance. It doesn't take but a few clicks on the keyboard to do so.

I'm in several leagues that don't send out notifications after every pick so you're quite obviously wrong.

Checking this site once a week doesn't constitute living on this site but you're free to PM every owner after every pick through round forty if you like.  Just don't PM me though, I'm good.

Their probably your own leagues, but the other two you are in along with myself, both send out notifications and all 5 leagues I play indo as well.

I'm also quite sure I'm not the only one who would like to be notified when it's their turn to pick.

I'm sure everyone will be happy to leave you off the list.

Geez. Welcome back to the league. I'd like notifications for those doing so. Will get :NYM: up to speed this afternoon. Been touring England this week watching the Cowboys stomp the jags.

Chris, I never meant for you to be the one to send all the notifications. I was thinking of a "next man up" system where after each person picks, they send a PM to the next person on the list.

That shouldn't be problem for you, should it?

17) :ATL: Atlanta Braves (via :NYM:) - Justus Sheffield, P autopick

The 2.17 pick of mine was given to the Braves incorrectly.  If you check our rosters, you'll see that the ATL-NYM traded picks were 2015, not 2014.

This is true... I remember clarifying this when I processed the trade.

    April 26, 2024, 07:35:23 PM
  • Daddy: If you got ANY extra loot laying around. Pick #33 will definitely be a WR. Probably got to wager $5 to win $1 by now but the line was -400 last i looked.
    April 26, 2024, 07:36:50 PM

    April 27, 2024, 05:19:09 PM
  • Jwalkerjr88: Nothing like having some depth guys on your NFL Live roster you believe in and watching his team draft a player at his position. Sometimes it happens twice. Stay strong NFL Live GMs lol

  • Daddy: Dont think of it that way. So many guys get hurt. The NFL moves so fast. Think of your players as commodity even if they are backups or rookies that arent playing much.
    April 27, 2024, 06:16:20 PM
  • Daddy: Any player that plays at all has LIVE value. It's the GMs here that determine what that value means to them or is worth in a trade.
    April 27, 2024, 06:17:45 PM
  • Daddy: If a guy is on your team and he is also on an NFL roster. He has LIVE value.

  • Daddy: How much do you love sports? How much do you love "your sport". Do you feel you could GM a franchise?
    April 27, 2024, 10:30:28 PM
  • Daddy: LIVE is a free league, better than any money league. That tests your ability to build a franchise. In a simulation setting more realistic than anything you are going to find.
    April 27, 2024, 10:31:51 PM
  • Daddy: Dont believe me? See for yourself.
    April 27, 2024, 10:32:08 PM
  • Daddy: Dont like me? So what
    April 27, 2024, 10:32:18 PM
  • Daddy: If you like sports and like dynasty. And you arent in LIVE... You aint hurting me none. You just wont know how good you really are. Pretending to be the best, isnt being the best.
    April 27, 2024, 10:33:55 PM
