Welcome to the league James Diemer! And just in a nick of time too. He should be online and rolling within 24 hours, although if he wants an extension on the draft pick he knows to ask.
Although the rule specifically states that an owner post on the message board to request a 24 hour extension for a draft pick, I will also accept email, phone or text notification.
As for the message board itself, I believe the only remaining league function still not set up there is free agent bidding. I will have that done and tested by June 1, when we need it. FYI, the system on MFL is blind bidding only. I will ask MFL if they can make it open, not blind, since knowing who you are biding against adds to the strategy. I would be curious to know how important this is to other owners. If it's no big deal, then I'll just institute the blind bidding system as is.
Still waiting on my feature request to add future years' contract values to salary adjustments for dropped players. But if that doesn't happen, it's manageable, just adds a few more mouse clicks to my life.
And finally on the transition, I personally have stopped updating my team roster, records, etc., on this board and now will only do it on MFL. I am willing to maintain this board as long as it is useful. However unless otherwise noted all league business is ONLY official on the MFL site.
Which reminds me, ProBoards is upgrading us this month, which may cause intermittent inaccessibility. I have seen the upgrades on other forums and like them a lot. After the upgrade I imagine I will reorganize this board, so that what is still in use is easy to find and everything else is archived. Even though we didn't get the forum upgrade I requested on MFL, I still encourage owners to use and check in with the message board on MFL as frequently as you have used this board. Thanks.
