I remember some of the old time players here talking about how they used to be able to see everyone's auto draft cards. Is there any chance those shenanigans are still going on?
I am sure a lot of you know a lot about computers. What are the chances someone could hack an auto draft, before it happens, just to see who the competition has listed?..... Please tell me I am just being paranoid. Although, if people can hack the FBI, I think SOM would be a walk in the park for any junior high school hacker.

You used to be able to see your draft order after the auto draft. That feature has been disabled in the past 90 days.
When I first started this game about 13 years ago I knew people who claimed that they could see the stadiums of their opponents prior to the auto draft and the league filling. They would then structure their teams to take advantage of the information that they had seen in structuring their draft list.. This was disabled shortly after I was made aware of it. I was never told what the secret was to do this.

You can still see your own draft order by replacing "frontoffice" with "draft" in the link.

Unless I am wrong about this you cannot see your draft order anymore in a private league

I have not been able to do it either, although I can still see the order for teams created prior to the invite function.

that link no longer works for teams created after the new invite feature became available.

Going back 5-10 years ago probably you could definitely see the Stadiums in your league prior to the draft. But that loophole was closed years ago.
