Looks like Jok57 is the only one of us who managed to make any picks himself.

yeah when i could get back in i removed players from my watchlist because i knew my draft order and if i lost the connection i would still get my pick, so the watchlist was tweeked so to speak and i think thats something to be noted once you know the draft order you can remove and add to your watchlist as the draft is taking place

its definately an advantage to be there as it happens because your watchlist can be dependent on others who we have seen can be unpredictable LOL

I'm not having that lot :lol:

In all seriousness, it wasn't a fair draft at all so I don't think we can stick with that.

Do you wanna setup a new league and draft? I'd suggest Wednesday or Thursday evening, if the site goes down again then we won't bother.

I've no desire to go through the pain of setting up another watchlist (had my absolute fill of doing 4 of those on Sunday and my short cuts in setting that up left me with picks 13, 14 and 15 being my forwards). FPL need to fix that and allow a master watchlist, it's ridiculously boring copying hundreds of players from excel but too hard to track drafted players outside of the site.

dont u just use their draft order list and "watch" from that - then tweek according to your own preference? then you can use the drop down lists and go and put your forwards in order, mids, etc etc or check the clubs list to see what order they are in,
when you adjust the place for each player just give the prefered player the place number of the player that you want them to be above and your preferences still stay in the same order - does that make sense how im saying it?
to me thats what i do, can do one in about 10 mins and tweek if you have a spare few minutes later on or during the draft.

I've not set up a watchlist for tonight so it will be a live draft for me. To be honest though I've done a few so I feel like I have some default selections!

Do you know, given a choice I think Id have preferred about 4th. You're prob still in Aguero/Jesus territory there and no real way to know if thats any kind of a large drop off from Kane/Kak. The chances of picking up a Alli, Erikssen, Mane, KdB (Hazard/Sanchez) are much higher then on the reverse end of the snake. I got lucky in draft one (Kane/Salah) but the second was more indicative (Lukaku/Pogba :? ) of the good midfielders left. AND Im last on the GW1 waiver.

i thought there wouldnt be a waiver until after GW1 - then the lowest scoring team would have the first chance of a waiver?
Why are you last on the GW1 waiver BFM?
Good luck it goes smoothly I wont be there, but i have my watchlist so my turn wont take up much time once it knows im not present LOL

As I understand it the lowest scoring team has first chance of a waiver for GW2; For GW1 first chance goes to whomever picked last.
