[USML Announce] USML - Rosters and set lineups

Tue Mar 25 09:27:08 EDT 2008

Brad:

1.  The system says the "lineup deadline" is 30 minutes before the first game on the relevant day (note: this function is not customizable).  Therefore, it looks like the deadline may vary a bit each Sunday.

2.  I am not sure what the deadline is for FAAB bids.  To be safe, I would suggest owners input bids by midnight on Friday.  I believe you can make contingent bids.

	Mark:
	  A few questions:
	     1. So we should make roster moves by noon on Sunday?
	     2. What is the deadline on Saturday to suibmit FAAB bids?  Are there allowances for Robbins-styled contingent bids?
	     3. And all this starts this weekend?
	Thanks!
	Brad

		  A few notes about your e-mail.

		1.  The deadline for roster moves is Sunday, but the system does not specify a time.

		2.  FAAB bids: like last year, FAAB bids have to be submitted by Saturday, and then the system evaluates the bids and announces the winners, so that roster moves can be made on Sunday.

		3.  For the first set of FAAB bids, please e-mail them as well to usmltrans at aol.com.

			The Nine roster is set.

			Is our deadline for future weeks still Sunday an noon Central?  Also, I assume we can make FAAB bids next week.   Should we make them in the system and send them by email to usmltrans at aol.com?

				Gang:

				  It appears that the "set lineups" function is finally working.  The system now reports legal rosters for all teams except AYM, Riptorns, and Klein Nine.  For those teams, please try re-entering.
