1) First and foremost, verify your picks! After you submit your picks, you should see the Picks Submitted page showing your picks and the time you submitted them. You should also receive an email of your picks. If you did not receive an email, log back in and make sure you submitted your picks. On a couple occasions last year a player didn’t notice a content error on the picks page after hitting submit, such as not providing a tie-breaker, and didn’t realize they had not submitted anything. 

2) The email you receive with your picks includes the drop-dead date when you can no longer make any changes (the lesser of your league’s grace period and pick deadline).

3) All player’s picks for your league will be viewable on the Standings page the moment the pick deadline occurs.

4) If you mouse over a player’s picks, it shows when they submitted them.  

5)  When a player posts to your league's forum, or when an Admin posts something to the Information Desk, an alert will be shown on the left below your 'My Leagues' pulldown. After you click on the post, the alert will go away.
