Your commish first needs to schedule a live draft date. Since there is no live draft date scheduled, you are unable to use the live draft room in that specific league yet. Wait for the commish to schedule a date.
As commish you should see a Settings tab on the league main page; if your league has been activated for 2013, that tab should have a Draft section with an Edit Live Draft Options link that lets you set the date and time for the draft.
@wrgilbert -- you already opened your free agency (which tells the system you drafted for the year). for you to see the draft settings tab, you need to go to League>>Settings>>Edit Rosters>>These are the complete roster but still draft this season (when you're ready to draft -- fleaflicker.com)
OK..I can get a draft...but what happened to the "NO TIME LIMIT" live draft?? In years past our draft took upwards of 5 and 6 weeks...and that's just the way we want it? Is there a NO TIME LIMIT setting?
You can select an e-mail draft at League>>Settings>>Edit Live Draft Options and there is no time limit there. In a live draft, your max time per pick is 4 minutes.

Yes, League>>Settings>>Clear Rosters (this will remove all your players for the league so if you have keepers, save them and then import them -- after, you can then run a new draft at Edit Live Draft Options ; please read the draft documentation for further help in our Owner's Manual.
You alternatively could have went to League Settings->Edit Live Draft Options->No Draft, I'll Import (and then re-start the e-mail draft) -- this will clear the ongoing email draft and keep the keepers (but I wanted for you to stay on the safe side to have your keepers saved in case you deleted them accidentally.
I am assuming you did this, which is fine as well, but commishes should have a back up of keepers just in case.

In my football league, the Live Draft Room tab is grayed out and unclickable. What gives?

Please let me know what league you are referring to; one is active the other is not. Thanks.

You can use our generic mock here: fleaflicker.com
If the commish is inactive in a month or so, please contact us through e-mail and we'll see if it warrants a commish change.

Thanks for the link, Hal! Our commish is the heart and soul of our league - don't even think about changing him.

I AM the Commish in my league and I have NO IDEA how to set a live draft date or in some way initiate a LIVE DRAFT room.

Can I re-boot the draft....the guy with the number 1 pick, jumped the gun and made a pick, and I don't have all my 'owners' in place.
