Folks,

Just a heads up on two problems Im trying to figure out.

1. Frank Thomas for the life of me will NOT show up, despite being in the DB. Im trying to sort through the code and figure out why. The same problem with Mike Sweeney.

2. Ive had reports of problems with Stadium Proxies, but havent had a chance to verify and troubleshoot.

Thanks for your patience and I will try to get through these things as I get the time.

Also, the next 2 weeks will be a little hit and miss on my availability, so if you dont get an immediate response, Im not ignoring you, just busy.

Major Sir...permission to speak sir.

Perhaps the problem with players Sweeny and Thomas is that they have no listed position...sir.

The stadia is a not with all parks, I could leave proxies for ATT for example but coors kept telling me that 2007Coo wasn't a valid ID.

In another Thread Bob posted this for you:

running into little bugs that you may have already addressed but wanted to make sure you were aware of them:

1) dropped players - just disappear. They are no longer on the available list. It does not seem to be that way consistently. But does happen when problem # 2 occurs.

We worked around this by using proxies players!

2) Double picks. When picks are made they get assigned the same pick #. For example, I have pick # 60 ( picked up using proxy) then I made my next pick which should have been # 61 . I made the pick manually and on the draft list it showed as pick # 60 ( making two pick # 60's). Pick # 61 stayed empty and the system expected me to make my pick # 61. In the end after trying various other approaches , I ended up simply skipping my pick for # 61.

Just thought I would put these two items on the record for you .. and maybe prompt others who might have similar or other bugs to let you know.

BTW - sure appreciate all your efforts to get this draft site working !!!!!!
Even with the little incidents, it works VERY well !! [/i:77234d5829][/color:77234d5829]"

Thanks for all the work and letting us play with the toy MD, I've ran two drafts there for 07 and as Bob said above, it works very well and the issues were easily worked around.

Thanks again.
