I just drafted a player http://brokenbat.org/player/246077 and get the notification that he doesn't exist. I thought that maybe somebody else got him in his list and was faster than me - but I can't draft anyone else now, either...

Holmes - I think I fixed that.

Other guys...can you try to re-draft.

Some processing didn't seem to complete on your draft picks. I'm not sure why yet.

Which pools did you select from?
What time (pacific time) did you guys make your selections?


Thanks,

Steve

In my case, it was High School, and must have been within the first half hour after the economic update had finished.
And, yes, thank you, I got the guy I selected. Not that I would have complained about a Mulligan...

Hey, Steve. I just now tried to draft for Round 3. It was riiiight after the economic update finished. The same thing just happened. I went College, got my board, and I selected this guy. After I pressed the draft button, I received the "no ID" error message, and now my draft button is gray. Can't draft, lost my pick.

Ooooof.

My button looks good this morning but when this happened to me last week I tried drafting when the draft button was good but I hadn't received the alert that I could draft a player. No alert yet today but I'm afraid to hit the draft button and have a repeat of last week.

I drafted immediately after the update, and had no issue. So I suspect that isn't the problem. Possibly the problem derives more from when lots of people are drafting at the exact same time? Some sort of race condition on the player conversion from prospect to player?

This has happened for me as well. Player does not exist, didn’t get the player, and now I can’t draft because the site tells me I already did. Please help!

@JoeDaddy: Your player is still technically out there. You need to replace "player" in the URL with "prospect." Here he is.

Yeah, the players are all still there. They are just stuck in the function that transitions them from prospects into players. That is the bug Steve has been trying to track down. I believe Steve was able to manually kickstart the process for everyone last week.

Okay...I think you should be able to pick a player now. I put some debug in and am trying to figure out why this happens some time.

Thanks for your patience...

Hey Steve,

Glad that people can draft again now.

Just to make sure you're aware, it seems at least for me, the guy I drafted is still in limbo.

Not sure if there is a fix to push them from limbo to roster, or provide back a new draft selection.

Thanks,
Joe :D

Which player did you try to pick?

Can you got back thru the draft button and re-pick him....does that work?

Going back thru the draft button did work, he was still there, the button was just grayed out earlier.

Thanks

The draft button had been grayed out for me all day as well, but now it works so whatever you did opened it back up again for Deadwood, steve. Thanks. Draft pick has been made.

Thank you so much. Major doubts about him, but I also was able to draft the same player I intended to previously. Much appreciated.

The only hint of trouble I saw was from Seca (first post here), but apparently waiting a half hour and trying again worked?
