Posted Sep 09, 2015 at 6:11 PM Is there a way to configure what time AutoPick kicks in? I have our deadline set to Wednesdays @ 11:45pm, but AutoPick kicked in and made picks before 7:00pm. Also, I have it set to only 1 autopick - so would that be their 1 even if they go in and change it? |

Hi Christine, It does look like autopick kicked in too early for your league. There are a couple things you can do while we look at the problem: 1) Ask the players with the AutoPick who they want to pick as you can submit picks for them within the control panel. OR 2) Change your deadline just for this week to tomorrow or some time later which gives them the opportunity to go in and change the pick. You are correct regarding the setting to 1 autopick, it means that it would be their one and only, but we can reset them back to 0. Fred

Posted Sep 09, 2015 at 6:55 PM OK, this problem was introduced to a change made a few weeks ago. Unfortuantely that change caused autopick to occur using UTC time instead of local time. The problem has been fixed, but in the meantime you'll still have to do one of the two previously mentioned options to allow them to make their pick. Sorry for this inconvenience! Fred

OK. Thanks for the quick response! Just to be certain - the autopick will not generate until the deadline, correct? or will it still generate the autopick before the deadline? |

Now that the UTC problem has been corrected, it will not generate until after the deadline.
