Hello. I have been in touch with the FleaFlicker Support Team for three years (my first correspondence was August 7, 2018) regarding expanded functionality in the FleaFlicker Draft Tool. I realize there were other priorities in recent years (ie: developing the app, etc.) but this is an urgent issue that needs to be addressed for Dynasty League management in FleaFlicker.
In brevity, we are requesting the following:
We need FleaFlicker to integrate expanded back-end management for League Commish control over each round of their draft through an additional option to insert a specific PLAYER / PICK / DELETE prompt for each team member in each draft round. This request would serve as a continuing evolution of the “Configure Draft” feature that was added to FleaFlicker in 2019. We desire to have this feature added to the Commish Tools as soon as possible this summer to arrive in time for the beginning of the 2021 NFL season.
The benefits of this expanded functionality will provide League Commissioners the ability to attach individual Dynasty Keepers/Players to a specific Draft Round for a Team. The addition of the PLAYER function will allow Dynasty Leagues greater flexibility to slot Dynasty Keepers/Players into the current round by round workaround that FleaFlicker has provided (which only features PICK / DELETE PICK options).
The current workaround does NOT allow League Commissioners to slot specific players directly into the draft slot, which creates all sorts of FleaFlicker management issues throughout the season (example: our league members cannot trust where Flea displays their dynasty keepers as having been “drafted” in the previous season).
Please update us on any progress you have achieved toward the expansion of the Configure Draft functionality.
Dynasty is the format of the future. Most serious fantasy players are migrating to it. And the future of dynasty is customization, altering drafts and settings to fit each individual collection of players. Each year we tweak our league to make it the best possible version. We need a hosting platform that is willing to tweak things as well. Mutual tweaking, that's what we need.
I've been pining for us to move to Sleeper for years and my league mates keep insisting that we stick it out with the Flea, stating the flexibility and support is better at the Flea. Prove them right!
Well said. Mutual tweaking, as it were. Three years is a long time to keep kicking the rock down the road on this one. Help me out here, Flea Support. I’m trying to keep my crew faithful to your platform. Seems like an easy win for 10 loyal (and paying) dynastic customers.
