Was just looking and free agents who have already played aren't locked? It has add in orange and not green but I selected a guy and it acts like it will let me

Supposed to be locked until Tuesday

Sure, looks like you have no waivers in place? Is that on purpose?

fortyniners01 Sun 9/18/11 8:11 PM

Yea no waivers...

But been on fleaflicker a few years...whether a player is a free agent or not once his game started he was locked (as it should be)

fleafounder Admin Sun 9/18/11 8:13 PM

I don't think that's how we've done it. With no waivers all players are available first-come-first-served.

The orange button rather than green means they'll be added to next week's roster because this week's has already locked. But you can still add them right now.

fortyniners01 Sun 9/18/11 8:26 PM

No they have always locked once game started

I actually made a topic last year when the same thing happened except it put them on you're bench right away adding to your bench points but you guys then fixed it

fleafounder Admin Sun 9/18/11 8:33 PM

Just to clarify, you want all players to lock at gametime but no waivers? Isn't that the definition of waivers?

fortyniners01 Sun 9/18/11 8:46 PM

Don't waivers rank you by standings? I want first come first serve but after rosters unlock so everybody has a fair shot (a team in my league just confirmed this its how used to be)

Right now if a guy has a player playing Sunday our Monday night they've first dibs on a hot free agent how has already played when a guy who also wants him can't get him because his roster is locked because they have played

A guy shouldn't be able to be dropped once he has played (and that's how its set)..using the same principle you shouldn't be able to add a guy who has also played

FleaMod Admin Sun 9/18/11 11:51 PM

You have to put your waivers on

fortyniners01 Sun 9/18/11 11:59 PM

Wouldn't that make it so if two guys want the same guy that guy goes to the lesser ranked team in the waiver order?

FleaMod Admin Mon 9/19/11 12:09 AM

No, if you don't run waivers, the first team to claim the player gets him

fortyniners01 Mon 9/19/11 11:04 AM

What time do rosters unlock eastern time? 8 a.m.?

FleaMod Admin Mon 9/19/11 11:05 AM

If you have no waivers, they are always unlocked. If you run waivers, at 8AM ET on the day you process them.

fortyniners01 Mon 9/19/11 11:10 AM

Think I'm just going to tell teams they can't add until their roster lineups unlock. I believe that is 8 a.m. Tuesday correct?

FleaMod Admin Mon 9/19/11 12:41 PM

It depends when their team plays. If you lock rosters at the start of the first game, it locks that week during game 1 -- if you lock at game time, it won't lock until that team plays (e.g. Giants and Rams are still able to be cut). When bye weeks start, they can be cut too. If you want to prevent adds and drops. Go to edit transaction rules->add/drop deadline to week 1 and then you can adjust to "none" when you want to open it.

fortyniners01 Mon 9/19/11 12:58 PM

No I'm asking when lineups unlock. I have Arian who has already posted and is locked...if I wanted to drop him what time can I on Tuesday?

fortyniners01 Sun 9/18/11 7:47 PM

can i get some help? Admins know it's sunday and football is on right? This will cause huge issues in my league if i can't get it fixed when i have to edit somebodies roster.....

all players should be locked until tuesday...that's how it's always been

FleaMod Admin Sun 9/18/11 11:51 PM

Your waivers are set to totally off.

fortyniners01 Sun 9/18/11 6:00 PM

????

fortyniners01 Mon 10/10/11 7:14 AM

Hopefully you guys can understand the issue now (I doubt it...think I made a topic 3 years straight). Even though waivers are set to off guys who have played should still be locked until Tuesday....in a waiver system on it would go by waiver ranking when they unlock and without waiver system there is no order it waiver in place. The EXACT CONCERN I had has happened again....

I'm playing a guy and I have Calvin Johnson left. I need like 28 points to tie him and I have more bench points. Now he cut Chad henne from his bench and added Alex Smith who already played and added 24 points to his bench. Hes still 3 points shy of my bench points but if he would have somebody who scored 28 this week and Calvin scores exactly 28 tonight (tying the game) it would go to the bench points and he'd have one more bench point giving him the win because he would have added 28 to his bench by picking up a player who already played

Hopefully you see the problem here...it should not be hard to just have each individual player lock in free agency a soon a their game starts until Tuesday morning without having to have a waiver wire set into place

My bad on spelling...auto correct from phone

FleaMod Admin Mon 10/10/11 8:22 AM

I see your point. It's not something our system is set up for right now. It's possible we can eventually change this behavior and create another option there for players that played with leagues that have no waivers in place.

Thanks if true...not trying to be a Dick but my experiences in the past with this site is when u get a response like this its never heard about again until I bring it up next year when the same problem happens

Not sure who does the code here for fleaflicker but it really wouldn't be that hard at all. Could be done in a day
