Hey I am brand new at this although I have played the Strat-O-Matic computer game solitair for about four years. Any way I drafted a team and joined a league but I can't access my team to set my lineup. The league is now full and there is a draft tonight and they said they would e-mail me to let me know the results. I thought I drafted a team. Can anyone enlighten me?

Thanks lanier64

You will be able to access your team once the draft is held.

You don't automatically get the players you selected. There are 11 other team owners who also selected players.

The draft determines who gets what player, based on what every owner selected. When more than one owner selects the same player, the computer determines which owner gets him. The computer then substitutes another player for the owner who lost that pick.

After the draft is complete you'll be able to see your team. Now you can make trades, and will have an opportunity to adjust your team during waivers. Read the help information about that. After waivers you will be able to add and subtract players with no penalty until the season starts.

Have fun!

Thanks so much for the reply. It makes more sense now.
