Waiting for a league to start has never been an issue. A more pressing issue is waiting for leagues to fill. There's either too many league options or not enough traffic.

Argh.
I hate this change.
Makes running smurf leagues much harder.

But. I get it. Less downtime between seasons. More credits used.

Here is what I suggest, given the landscape.
Either
A. Join Frenzy only leagues
B. Make sure your league fills on Friday

Another case of giving us something we never asked for while either ignoring or taking their sweet time on stuff that the community HAS asked for.


While I'm not a fan of this change at all, we don't know how many responses in the recent survey may have requested it.

It looks like they made some updates and gave us options. I am glad to see flexibility, its always nice to let the players choose how they want to run the leagues. With the opening day listed on the league info page, it seems like it should be easy to figure out whats going to happen in each one.

Sounds like this would be an option when League Commissioner/Creator is creating the league, where you could stick with the Default of starting 3 days after filling, or selecting Monday as Opening Night as an option.

Just like when they changed to make divisions random instead of filling divisions by order of entry. By having options, you can still do it like you want to.

No big deal, Probably not worth three pages of discussion.

I plan to stick with Mondays; as someone else said, I like knowing when Semis and Finals begin. Those of us who've been here a while are probably creatures of habit in that regard.

I thought I would be the only one who doesn't like this at all. Waiting two days for waivers has always irked me,but now it's even worse.
