Grigs Allmoon 0 Posted October 19, 2005 When I went to bed Monday night I had a win. I check in now to see I have a loss, and some of my starters were switched. Did this happen to anyone else? Is there a way to fix it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SmoovJello 0 Posted October 20, 2005 I've noticed that my starters have changed on Tues if some of the starters didn't earn any stats during the game. Was this the case or were players with points changed around? GDR has always stated that scores aren't final until mid/late Tues as they wait to get the stats in. Then add in the statement above about players moving up the depth chart if they haven't earned stats, and it can have an effect. Example: Original Starter: TE - Chris Baker, NYJ = 0 pts Possible Replacement: TE - Matt Jones, JAC = 6 pts Not sure if this is the case here but it is possible. You had an extremely close game and six points could've made a difference. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Faulk got put in at RB, Dunn at KR, and I think a IDP or two got swapped, too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest TheCheat Posted October 20, 2005 Have you reported this to GDR support and/or on their board? If not, I think you should do so ASAP, as I remember something about a deadline as to when a result can be challenged. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This league (Read: format) has been a bit of a let down. I've been trying to stay active, but it's far from the most fun league I'm in this year. And, it seems like some, if not many, others have already bailed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SmoovJello 0 Posted October 21, 2005 No, that wasn't the case for me. I had Shaun McDonald in at WR who scored, but Booker got swapped in, who didn't score. Sorry, but this actually looks right to me. According to ESPN (Shaun McDonald-ESPN) McDonald didn't contribute at all in the game, whereas Booker caught a ball. Faulk got put in at RB Unless you set HB Management to 100% on Dunn (HB1), Faulk was bound to be inserted. Dunn at KR This one doesn't really matter 'cause no one that could have scored as a KR would have given you points. and I think a IDP or two got swapped, too. Nothing to really say here. IT looks as if you could have gotten an additional 4 points if some of your players were in different depth slots, but thats about it. Not attacking ya' here Grigs, just trying to say that maybe the system is working the way it's supposed to. Sad to hear that some of the people here are so down on the system. I agree that it needs tweaking but really like the depth that it is going in to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SmoovJello 0 Posted October 21, 2005 My bad on the McDonald thing. I thought he had 5 for 55 that week. Anyway, why does the "system" change my lineup? From what I've seen thusfar, whenever your "Starter" doesn't score points the system moves your starter to the bottom of the depth chart and bumps everyone else up. It'll either put in the next man down the line that scores a point or , if no one else has scored anything, enter the last one on the depth chart. It makes it possible to get points from every position even if you get hit by the whole Questionable injury status. I'm sure that most Dillon owners in classic FFB woulda loved something like this last week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wildman 0 Posted October 25, 2005 I had the same issue...I had McNair as my starter--I forgot to switch Orton as my injury replacement. Monday night, it showed Orton as my starter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mike MacGregor 20 Posted October 27, 2005 Two weeks ago I had Benson ahead of Thomas Jones because Jones was injured. I didn't get a chance to change it last minute Sunday morning. Benson got zero but stayed in my lineup. Unfortunately had him at 45% useage too. Doesn't look like it would have made a difference in the game, but in that case should Jones have moved into Benson's slot automatically? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is it whether your "Starter" scores a point, or whether that player actually enters the game? If Benson took the field the week Mike's talking about, that'd explain the non-switch despite the 0, but I'm not certain how this works either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
