Can I have a league with 2 strikes and commissioner override authority to make late picks for players who miss a deadline or have computer issues? 

Also can league be designed to allow picks for games up until that start of each game or have a deadline of say 5 minnutes before the 1st game of each day?

The answer is yes to every question exept the very last, we don't have a setting to set a deadline to a certian number of minutes before each game. Honestly there wouldn't be much value in that. Instead, if you set your deadline to any time after the last game of the week (e.g. 7pm Monday MST), then the "deadline" becomes the start of each game. As a game starts, it gets greyed out on your pick sheet and you can't select it, but the remaining games will be selectable.

Thank you Fred.  That's helpful.
Just to clarify, can the commissioner make a pick for a player if the player can't access the site?

Absolutely. Just go to Manager -> Submit Player Picks.

No phone apps, but the site is mobile-friendly (with a few improvements in the works here-and-there).
