Real Teams Plus- change to waivers time 10 pm EST Thursday

Stratdraft is good to go, fire when ready. Remember I moved the stratdraft salary cap up to $15,000, the equivalent for SOMO loading will be 10,000. Stratdraft does not allow decimal points so had to do it that way. The actual SOMO cap is still $100 M. Have fun

metjet you are up

There is no way to draft a comp pick on stratdraft so WSJ will announce that pick here after the 1st round is complete. I put a pause on Kramer's 2nd round pick to make sure we don't forget.

[Metjet24]

Ever player I try to draft, it says it exceeds my limit?

[travelingjack]

Not sure why it would that, wait a couple minutes, I'll turn off the cap and then you can draft.

Ok, try now

Apparently I need to do some tweaking with the stratdraft salary cap system, will try to fix it later. I'll put the admin comment salaries next to each pick when/if I have time.

Thank You Sir!

Some high $ picks so far - good picks. Blackjack - any notes on how to set up proxies? I couldn't find anything on the site.

Delbird- go to "Front Office", then "My Profile". Stratdraft calls it autodraft instead of proxy. If you missed it there is a help button on top of the stratdraft page. I put some tips on one of the threads, I'll find it and c&p it here.

[quote:08ca4d8e09="blackjack57"]I added the first 6 picks to the stratdraft site. Took out drafted teams hitters/pitchers from individual player list. Go to "Draft Views-My Competition" then submit the team you want to look at to see a list of players on other teams. To see your team it's the same except "my draft" instead of competition. Note that each team's remaining funds for the draft is the figure at the top of the page.

Go to "Front Office-My Profile" to set up email alerts if you want to receive them. Below that is the proxy list. To set up a proxy list here is what you do:

Check Auto Draft-If your pick is already up you must draft manually. Therefore if you add information to the Autodraft system while your turn is up, it will not take affect until your next pick. Auto draft remains enabled and will continue drafting for each of your turns until turned off.

Find the staff/hitter set, stadium, or individual player you want to proxy. Individual players are in the top box, p/h sets and stadiums are in the box at the bottom of the page. Input the id (example- s4 for T. Abreau) for your choice into one of the fifteen proxy boxs. After you hit submit your choice's name will appear next to the id. If you want to delete a proxy just backspace the id and submit. You can put in up to 15 choices, in up to three groups. There is a fairly good explanation on the stratdraft page of how to use the group settings. Make sure you set the "draft a maximum of _ players" to at least 1.

After you are finished be sure to submit and then turn off if you don't want them on presently. The "Obtain ID for pre-Majors Player" box is for prospects, etc. we won't use that.

I know it may seem easier just to use the chat thread but I think once everyone gets used to the site you will see the advantages of it. Note that there is a "help" button located on top of each page. After round 2 I will reorder based on salaries and switch from serpentine to straight.
