Draft not working for me

Post by Terrier Ramone »

I'm supposed to be drafting now (started at 10pm) but I cannot send a message & I'm unable to draft the player I want, 2 round s so far & I've been "allocated" Sanchez & Hazard.

Anyone else suffered this or know what I'm doing wrong?

Seen this happen on another FPL Board today as well. It appears the site cannot cope with the additional traffic, I suppose Sunday has proven a popular draft day. In the end they had to delete the league and rearrange another draft day.

What the hell, currently drafting with 7 others and while I am active, chatting in the chat there and what not and it was my turn, it said I was idle and the system picked Son for me, then the next one got Wijnaldum automatically and I was provided with Pedro who I didn't pick myself..

I ran my works draft at 12:30 today and it worked fine. Much excitement, even from the non-football fans!

Did you time out on a pick?

That happened to me twice and also to some others, who were all online and actively bantering it up in the chat room...

Last two picks I was automatically warded Daniels (OK) and Butland. Still no bad picks, but why did that happen I wonder.

Was talking to my son, who was in a draft with managers in UK, USA and Australia, and they were all set to go and then the whole selection for all the teams in the league, every round, was allocated automatically! No-one got anyone they wanted except by chance. My son ended up with a back-five of Stones, Walker, Mendy, Azpi and Alonso! His front-three was rubbish.

I think they decided it wasn't worth taking seriously.

Was in an 8 team draft @ 12:00 EDT. Worked perfectly, both in picks by choice and autopicks for those absent. Was over in half an hour.

Seems like the site can't handle the more popular and thus populous draft times.

Keep refreshing the page if it's shit, although now with our last two picks it's just broken down it seems for ages (still says "loading..." though).

Just as I write that, it's back.
