| 2. | We have a Deluxe league and our draft order does not have the right teams in their drafts. How do I correct this so the divisions/conferences match the draft order?
Answer: This often occurs if the Draft Order Setup - All Rounds screen is adjusted prior to defining the franchises and their divisions/conferences.
To adjust this you will need to first go to the Setup > Set Draft Order Setup - One Round. Here you will manually arrange the first round of the draft to have the proper teams in each division/conference.
After you have Round 1 defined and saved, go back to the Setup > Draft Order Setup- All Rounds and you can define your overall draft order for each Division/Conference.

| 3. | The draft timer expired on someone. How can they make up their pick?
Answer: The preferred way to handle this is for the commissioner to use the Change Draft Pick screen to manually define the pick. The commissioner can also revert the draft using the Revert Draft screen, but this will undo any picks made after the expired pick (requiring the subsequent picks to be re-entered). When the pick gets made up, and what player can be selected, is strictly up to your league rules.
You may choose the "Allow the system to automatically pick a player for the owner based the highest-ranked available player according to rankings displayed on the ADP page " option on your General Draft & Timer Setup page.
