Steve has much better things to be doing. I'm not saying your ideas aren't good, I'm just saying as a whole, this "issue" is inconcequential at the present time.

All I said is the button pop idea is very simple to do, and it solves the problem once and for all. The argument that it’s a microscopic issue is just a disguise for the fact that some people don’t want to lose the draft advantage they have at the moment. And if not knowing when the button will pop bothers some people, there could be a message close to the button saying the time and day the button would become active, and that message would be updated every Friday.

Seriously, you sound like someone who just wants to complain for the sake of complaining. It's not unfair. It's all in your head. At the very least, I'd rather have new features and enhancements than worrying about this

Choosing the right pool to draft from is likely a bigger factor than when you draft. There is no problem here. The mechanism works fine.

But when Mig disagrees with an idea and shoots it down, its because the one who came up with the idea is trying to dope the game. Seriously, it's a very simple formula. How have you all not solved it by now?

If people didn’t create multiple accounts I wouldn’t have to say they have multiple accounts. And if people weren’t creep stalkers I wouldn’t have to say they are creep stalkers.
