You can flick between current team and "points" team to spot the differences.

Yes that's ...despisable(despicable?)

I see I got 3 and had to check my last gw team in Points to recall who I have released ;)
I can't recall which my other failed requests for the same positions were, and which priority were those I got granted :? (i.e. which my higher priority requests were snatched by teams higher in the waiver order, I was 9th/10)
I'm not even sure I like my transfers now, I mean, will Welbeck see more game time than Gayle, with Alexis coming back (IF he stays)? Leaving alone their scores.
And Jones over Zouma?
Or Defour over Townsend? (Here I recall I had Antonio as #1 request, can't even remember whether Defour eas my 2nd or 3rd Mid request...)
Plenty of room for regrets :lol:

Ha, a tip to help with this. Add all the players you've waivered for to your watchlist (delete everyone else from it). Then if you haven't got them you can see who got there first!

Yeah, we noticed
Someone suggested to put all them available in your WL, there's then a button to filter WL

thanks dino for repating and rewording in a clearer way the advice I had been relaying in the other topic, and for refining it
So you can use the WL as a workaround trick in two phases
1. When choosing your waivers, to help filter the available players only
2. AFTER you filed your waiver requests, as a filter to help reminding you all the players you requested, to check who you got and who got snatched by whom
You could also sort your WL here in the same priority order as your waiver requests

I think it is correct that waiver transactions should be hidden until the gameweek deadline. For example towards the end of the season somebody below you in the league might pick a defender and if you can see that then you can just cover any possible gain with another defender from the same team.

If we can't see transaction history after the gameweek deadline has passed that's a shame.

I've already taken out my #1 draft pick for bandwagon Mounié. Lindelof and Klaassen both removed too.

I can see now PB got my 1st option Antonio, and wahine got my 2nd Xakha ahead of my 3rd option Defour
BTW wahine waiver turn was 3rd and PB 5th, so wahine passed on Antonio (overlooked? preference?) leaving him to Pirlo's

Oh, but you CAN see the defender your chaser picked, IMMEDIATELY after the waiver anyway!

Just go in the transactions, filter defenders, and examine all owners by their initials. These will be the current owners, after waivers.
Of course this will require some active research from your part, comparing with last gw teams too, but it CAN be seen, albeit not straightforwardly

That's why I said it's silly to not summarise transactions the moment they happen, if you CAN anyway see (or "glean") the same info elsewhere

It also clears your watchlist after each waiver period by the looks, who designed this?

Wait, of course there's
WL in Draft Room that's of no use anymore
WL in Transactions, that's the one to use now, and it didn't get cleared after waivers

So the next time waivers get processed will be Friday September 8th right? Just wanted to check that they don't get processed this Friday.

Woohoo :shock: :D
It unchecks itself when you add a waiver request, but still, progress indeed.
