Jake: Glad to see you check in. Here is the page from the help section of Penn's site, if you haven't seen it. This should give you some good tips for setting proxies. Your next pick will probably come back around yet tonight before the clock shuts off at midnight:
About the Draft
You can not pick until its your turn or if the pick time for the person picking before you has expired. Proxies are executed every 5 minutes.
Picking Players
To make a pick click on make your pick. A page should appear that allows you to select the players you want to see. You can do many types of searches, type in part of a players name, Select a position and range, Select a min dollar value, etc. Once you have found the player you want to pick just click on ADD
Creating Proxies
Proxies are executed in order of ROUND,GROUP,PRIORITY
ROUND --- Round at which you want the proxy to execute, if you select 0 (ZERO) then the proxies executes current round, if you select Round 2 and its your pick in Round 1 or Round 3 that proxy WILL NOT be used. Round 0 is used when you dont care about the round and you just want to execute your proxies in order of GROUP then Priority.
GROUP -- You can group your proxies, ie group 2B,CF or SPs and you can flag "Delete group if picked" to YES if you only want ONE proxies from a group of several to be used. IE I want either Lowe or RJ but I dont want both....So the proxy would look like this...
Round--0, GROUP--1,DELETEGROUP--YES, PRI--1, D LOWE
Round--0, GROUP--1,DELETEGROUP--YES, PRI--2, R Johnson
Once I get my pick of Lowe the proxies for Lowe and RJ are both removed.
Delete if Group picked --- You MUST flag EVERY player in a group that you want deleted if any player in that group is picked.
ie.
ARod group 1 pri 1 Delete - N
Tejeda group 1 pri 2 Delete - Y
A Gonzalez group 1 pri 3 Delete - N
If you get Arod, Tejeda is removed but Gonzalez is still a valid proxy.If Arod was picked already and you get Tejeda, A Gonzalez still will be a valid proxy
You have to set every player you want deleted to YES.
To create a proxies, select/filter the same way you would to make a pick. Once you find the player you want enter the player ID in the Player ID box above the find name prompt.
