changing to 2 picks on the fly

Hi Fred,

I changed my league from one pick to two picks required this past Tuesday, one guy submitted his single pick before the change-over and it doesn't look like the system is recognizing that he doesn't have both picks in.  On the standings page I see "PICK IN" and when I use the "pick reminder" option, his name does not show up requiring a reminder.

I sent the guy (Borg) a reminder email today that he's one pick short, it would be nice if the system was smart enough to detect this type of issue, or maybe reset picks on a league setup change like this.

Hi Christopher.. I've put it on the todo list to improve this going forward. Thanks for the heads up!

Fred,

Please take a look at Kelly from my league, i think she forgot to make picks this week, it looks like the system auto picked "Oakland" for her first pick and "TBD" for her second pick.  Oakland upset the Steelers and her weekly indicate that she got both picks correct.

 I'm assuming that either she should have got a second auto pick or that second pick is a loss.

Thanks,

Christopher

There are still issues with the 2-pick configuration, in this case with auo-pick. I'll figure out what went wrong but in the meantime I can correct her in the standings. Her 2nd autopick would have been Tampa Bay (the next biggest underdog), which would eliminate her.  I also have to figure out why your standings don't look right. I should have a fix later this evening or tomorrow AM.

Ok, stand corrected on the standings, it looks good just needed to go through processing. I still need to figure out the auto-pick issue though for next time.

thanks Fred, standings look good to me now 

No problem! I also found the auto-pick bug and confirmed the fix on the test site.

FYI, I also applied a change so that when swithing configuration from 1 pick to two pick, players will get a reminder email if they have not made both picks. It will also now show correctly on the Manger's 'Player Pick Status' page and will only show 'Pick In' on the standings page if both picks are submitted.
