It probably should be if it isn't. Personally the part I misread was the part that says "Sept 4", but I don't think you can do much about major operator malfunctions like that.

I just figured Draft Update would be a more clear entry to point people to when they ask about the draft schedule to avoid this sort of confusion.

My thought in letting people keep it from 0 to update 1 was more about the fact that some folks might not stick around as much between seasons, and I'd hate for them to lose their first draft pick just because they didn't log in while there weren't any games playing.

Haselrig Joined: 04/13/2014 Posts: 2790 Novi Doubledays III.4	Would it be possible to produce a draft schedule during the season flip and have it appear on each player's Draft page? Something like this: Round #1 - Aug. 23rd Round #2 - Sept. 4th Round #3 - Sept. 11th Round #4 - Sept. 18th etc.

newtman Joined: 11/02/2013 Posts: 3343 Inactive	I don't think that is what Steve was saying, and also considering there is nothing on the Events page as Haselrig said that would suggest that the picks got reset last night I think if someone missed logging this week they should still be able to use the pick they got on Monday.
