I need to vent..
We had our 12 team keeper league draft scheduled tonight, the only good time from now until April I could get everyone together. I spent over an hour setting up Yahoo's "Pre-Draft" selections to select our keepers due to the horrid user interface they provide for doing so.
We begin our draft and the keepers are not represented whatsoever. Since we have 5 keepers, each manager just drafting their keepers as their top 5 would have messed up our draft order. So we devise some wild plan to draft all crap players in the first round, then continue drafting as is so the draft order would be corrected. Sure enough, the draft was allowing each player to select 5 players in order to enter our keepers. We had no idea this was happening, so the first owner selected a bunch of undraftable players. The best part is, Yahoo offers NO live-draft commissioner tools. There is no way to undue the selections or reset, or pause the draft so I can enter the keepers. Therefore, the draft was completely ruined.
Has anyone else run into these issues? Every single year we have insane amounts of trouble with Yahoo live draft. If one person makes one mistake, or one things go wrong, the entire draft is basically ruined since the commissioner does not have any control whatsoever over the draft.
Now i'm trying to scramble to find another draft time to get these 12 extremely busy people together, and get Yahoo to reset our league, and figure out why our keepers didn't come up.
