I do find the waiver system a little confusing myself. Interesting that you found the FFOC system easier (and different) when both contests were/are run by the same company, and presumably the same software.

Here are some tips on using the current waiver system:

- the first bid they look at in each of your bid groups is the player with the highest dollar bid, so I always try to order each bid group from highest dollar to lowest

- in most cases I try to just put one player drop per bid group, so if you have a list of say, five players, and want to get two of them, make two bid groups with the same player adds and a different player to drop in each

- I think – don’t quote me on this – you can prioritize the bid groups, so if I’d actually prefer to bid just $5 on Rashad Jennings as my first priority (drop Brandon LaFell) and bid $10 on Deji Karim as my second priority (drop Brandon LaFell), then I would have to put these in two separate bid groups with the Jennings one ranked higher

I hope that helps. Thanks for the kind words about FF Today!

Mike I had issue’s trying figure that waiver wire out. I get it now that it’s run by order list of worst team on bids. That if you get a player from your 1st preference. Even if you outbid for a 2nd preferential player. If that player is on the first bidder’s preferential list. That player goes to that bidder. I played in FFOC last 2 year’s. For all it’s complaint’s. I did like their FA system which was also run by fanball. Seem’s to me if I outbid everyone for a player I should get that player regardless of where player is on preference list. In fact last night I bid on several player’s and lost almost every bid. But I did get one player listed on preferential list. However the last player which was seventh on my list was not bid for by anyone. Yet I did not get that player. He was marginal but I did list dropping another player so I should have gotten him. I wondered if the waiver wire list is only run soo many time’s. ANYWAY I am not doing well and my first year in satellite league for $125. I like the NFFC game. I was considering playing in higher pay NFFC league. As this season was a “GET FEEL for NFFC season.” But with higher stake’s. My concern about waiver wire run on NFFC put’s that in doubt. If you know guys run NFFC Mike. You might wanna pass off these concern’s.

My original concern’s were legit and other’s posted similar concern’s. In NFFC you can e-mail owner’s individually. So theortically say in week 11 owner drops Ray Rice. A team that will likely be in playoff’s has most FA money available. These 2 owner’s collude together and the playoff owner outbid’s everyone for Ray Rice using all his FA money committing collusion. So updateed the story and John now has ay Rice back with isssue settled.

BTW Mike I realize NFL been erratic this year. But I have been disappointed with Footballguys info this year since it’s a pay site. I question whether they have lost focus on providing fantasy info and became too distracted with money side of site. Running fantasy game’s etc… fotballguys useed be the bet fantasy info site online. I think FFTODAY and fantasy toolbox areboth great mostly free site’s. Thanks for letting me comment.————————————————Tim

There is something to be said for the best-ball/draft masters format leagues. No starting lineup decisions, no waivers, just draft and go. Of course, it is easier to lose interest in this type of league if you fall out of it early, rather than fighting like you are doing to stay in the running.

I wish you the best of luck the rest of the way in your league, and I hope that issue gets resolved properly. Even if someone ends up with Rice, keep at it. Still no guarantee that team will walk to the league championship. Any given Sunday.
