Not my team, but this guy says that the computer autodumped 2 of his guys immediately after draft-but he still had 25. Also, his waiver line was already set. All of that was no big deal-but take alook at his available cash. His team has salaries of about 70 million, but it says he has over 20 million available?

HAL screws up on AD someties when too many people slect the same players . We had a league where everyone drafted the some players minus like two guys and teams have payrolls of 85 million.

is it permanent or does it fix itself during Waivers?

That team in question is mine and I think I figured out what happened. Earlier this week my team was in a league that auto drafted on Monday evening. After the draft one of the league members asked me and another manager if it was ok if they could have TSN remove our teams and be replaced by two members that were friends of the other ten teams (seems they forgot to pw protect the league). We said ok and TSN put our teams back in draft status mode. I then entered the next auto draft league.

Once the auto draft ran last night, I noticed my waivers were all set - eventhough I had never set them and they included players not in the FA pool or on my roster for the drops. Apparently this was a duplicate of the waivers I had set for the earlier draft that my team was originally in. The transaction list showed me dropping two players (Hendrick and White) who were actually on other teams rosters and I still had 25 players. (so it may have shown on the transaction list, but it could not have taken place) These two were the same players I had dropped in the original draft on Monday.

My cash is way higher than it should be by the exact amount of the excess cash I had after the original draft. I am going to proceed as if I only have $80 million in play and never touch the excess amount. If it does not clear itself out after waivers are run on Sunday, I will contact TSN to see if they can fix it, but in the interim, I will not go over $80 million.

I think being pulled out of a drafted league is an unusual situation and is what caused the odd blips in this league.

Abner, the secret to your success is finally revealed! At first I couldn't put my finger on it but now it becomes so clear to me! :lol: :lol: :lol: :wink:

:shock:

But seriously, I don't think I've ever come across anything quite like that. Wow. That is crazy.

P.S. I hope you can forgive me for breaking your b**** with a little bit of fun here. I couldn't resist. Especially after your comeback to take down my Electric Company in TSN_8743! I didn't know that was you until the "toughest division" thread was started by OuttaLeftfield. :evil: :x

And I [i:0cd14122bf]can't believe[/i:0cd14122bf] that someone else didn't take the opportunity to do it before I did. Ahem! Cough! [b:0cd14122bf]SEANREFLEX[/b:0cd14122bf] Cough! Cough! Sniff! [b:0cd14122bf]YOUNTFAN[/b:0cd14122bf] Cough! [b:0cd14122bf]PENNGRAY[/b:0cd14122bf] Cough! Whew! Is it cold in here or what? :wink: :P :?

:twisted: bjs73 :twisted:

I sent TSN a e-mail regarding the problem. Hopefully when waivers are run today the cash will correct itself. If it doesn't, at least TSN should see this issue prior to the leaue actually beginning the season Monday night.

Well waivers ran and it did not clear up the excess cash problem. I am being given $92.08 to work with. I have sent TSN a message (and posted in the TSN questions thread) to fix this and will keep a minimum of $12.08 million in cash available throughout the season until TSN can fix this problem. :?

Bernie has commented on the suggestions thread that he will take care of this prior to the league starting play Monday evening. 8)

Back to just an $80 million manager as TSN fixed the excess cash issue today. 8)
