I posted two topics trying to figure how to manage a keepers league. Do you have keeper tools anywhere or suggestions how to manage this from your site? Yahoo and espn have tools to do this and I don't see any here? please advise
I went thru it and trying to wrap my head around it...
Can you explain this?
I am in a keeper league and want transactions to take place before the draft, what should I do?
Go to League >> Settings >> Edit Rosters and select These are the complete rosters.
Then when you're ready to draft, go to League >> Settings >> Edit Rosters and select These are the complete rosters but still draft this season. Then schedule a new draft date now from the League >> Settings page.
Where is the Edit Rosters? I only see Edit roster requirements...
Also, where is this option? I dont see it under league-settings-?
Can I specify a keeper deadline?
Not formally but we suggest you post a message to the league message board (using the E-mail entire league option) a few teams during the offseason. On the day of the deadline, you can then release all non-keepers from League >> Settings >> Clear Non-Keepers.
Sorry for the delayed response (this is unlike us). This somehow got lost in the shuffle but I see you made progress with us through e-mail.
You'll only see Edit Rosters after the draft has taken place or the players are imported (in your case after the draft).
You can specify a keeper deadline only manually through the Message Board or letting your teams know. Our deadline is before the draft room opens on draft day so make sure around 35 minutes before the draft room is open this is all set or else it will take the keepers that are on the rosters when you're ready to draft.
This will only work if every team in the league has all keepers selected to the maximum. If so, go to Edit Rosters>These are the keepers (for all teams) and then back to Edit Rosters>These are the complete rosters but still draft this season.
This will only work though if all teams have every single keeper selected to you max. The details are below.
That will work fine if everyone's keepers are set and they have the max amount set. So if you keep 3 players, every team must have their 3 players selected. If some teams aren't keeping all their players (they are keeping 1 or 2), that won't work because it will select 3 players for that team -- or you can manually remove the extra keepers it selects. Otherwise, that will work fine. Do that and then go to Edit Rosters>These are the complete rosters after you select These are the keepers (for all teams). You'll be set. If you need further help, or you need us to set his keepers, let us know with a link to the league, his team, and his keepers and we can set them for him if you have any issues.
Is fleaflicker planning on advancing its keeper options and technology. i realize this site is for free and may have something to do with it but I have multiiple seasons now invested on this site with stats and don't want to lose our history of my leagues. Please advise. ...and thank you for offering a site in general!
Thanks for your kind words. Yes, we always plan on advancing options and especially dynasty and keeper rules. We made a lot of great improvements and enhancements this year in regards to e-mail drafts to help dynasty leagues.
We will continue down this path to make the website the best fantasy sports site to play on -- this includes everyday ongoing initiatives to give you the most options around (which would include you specifically adding keepers to teams individually without following all those steps)

Is there a way to set keepers for all teams as the commissioner? or is it only available to each individual owner?
