The guys in our league that got their first strike and want a buyback say they dont have the option to do so/and or don't or don't know how to do so. We have a 7 lives with 20 buy back. In managers setting also claims no buyback player avaible. This our first year

Hi Justin,

I checked your league and it does appear something in your settings is causing a problem with the manage buybacks page. We'll have that fixed ASAP, in the meantime I would suggest you turn the approve buybacks option off. When the player goes to the picks page they will be warned that by making a pick they are agreeing to the buyback (see below). If they don't pay you for the buyback before the game starts, you can easily remove their pick and buyback. I've confirmed that with manager approve turned off players will be able to make their picks.

Hi Justin... I believe I tracked your problem to a behavior involving enabling and disabling manager approve for buybacks. If you have it disabled, then enable it after the week processes, players won't show up on the manage buyback page since the setting had previously been set to manager approve = no. There is a sublte change we can make that if you change the setting to manager approve, those players who have yet to do a buyback will show up on the manage buyback page for you to approve. You should be good to go with the setting set to no, in the meantime we'll be applying a fix to account for this corner case.
