Which part looks wrong? I took a look at it, and without going into too much detail, it looks correct. Players were awarded based on the waivers priority order (worst record, followed by lowest points)... the key that everyone needs to remember is that this order does not change from round to round. In other words, if an owner wants a player in round 1, they must list enough requests so that they make sure they get someone. If they just list one request in round 1, then another single request in round 2, they could end up with nothing (if both requested players are snagged by teams that are ahead of them on the list). Here is the list of owners, in order of priority:

Round 1
Swiss - No requests
Thunder - Got Mannigham
Region Rats - No requests
Majick - Got Ellison
Red Burns - No requests
Vikings - Got Royal
Warriors - No requests
Devils - Got Biermann
Gangs of NY - Requested Ellison only... Already taken. Nobody awarded for round 1.
Barbarians - Got Hillenmeyer
Erratic Bats - Got D. Williams
JUICE - Got Jolly

Round 2 (Teams not listed didn't submit Round 2 requests)
Thunder - Got Manning
Vikings - Got Caldwell
Devils - Got Jenkins
Gangs of NY - Requested D. Williams only... Already taken. Nobody awarded for round 2.
Barbarians - Got Henry
JUICE - Got Jones

Round 3
Thunder - Requested Jenkins only... Already taken. Nobody awarded for round 3.
Vikings - Got Whitner
Devils - Got Brown

Round 4
Vikings - Got Tynes
Devils - Got Chillar

Rovers, It looks like your requests weren't honored based on the priority list... If you had requested Williams as a 2nd request for round 1, you would have gotten him ahead of the Bats. Does that make sense?

They were officially open as soon as the waivers requests were processed... In other words, you can do FCFS now.

No we can't, it's still set for priority waivers

I guess I entered my requests incorrectly some how. Got screwed out of D Williams. I don't have time to work on it right now. I'll get to it tonight...

Did you read my response? Sorry if I got a bit long-winded, but I wanted to explain in detail, so it was clear... The parts below pretty much sum up why you didn't get Williams:

I'll check out the FCFS thing... they should be open now.

OK... I'm not sure what happened, but the waivers/calender that is in MFL right now is not even close to what I put in last week. Someone must have gone in and changed it... Not sure why, as I'm 99.9% sure it was set up exactly as Connie had asked me to have it. Before I change anything, I'm going to PM Connie and Rovers, and ask them if they want me to correct it. The waivers setup right now is a bit off. wink.gif
