Hello all. Welcome to your very own insider newsletter, just for Cheatsheet Compiler & Draft Buddy users.

 

If it is your first time using the Cheatsheet Compiler & Draft Buddy this season, thanks for trying us out! If you've been with us for a while, some as many as 10 years (you old veterans), we're glad to have you back, and thank you for the continued support.

 

This is the second issue of the 2010 CC/DB Insider with updates and things you want to know about your draft software. If you missed Issue 1, you can review it here:

- - Live Chat II with Mike MacGregor - -

We had a good time two weeks ago doing a live chat in the blog at FF Today. How about we do it again? Live chat II with Mike Mac is scheduled for this Thursday July 29th at 9:00pm Eastern. Ask your questions about all things Compiler, Draft Buddy and Projection Pal. We even tossed in some fantasy questions last time. Maybe we can get the polls working better. Thursday's chat will happen here.

 

Check the transcript from last time, here: http://bit.ly/9U6uoc

 

- - Survivor Contest - -

Don't forget to join the CC/DB Survivor Contest. It is free for all CC/DB customers, and we're giving away $5,000 to the winner.

 

You can change your pick anytime up to the contest entry deadline, opening kickoff on Sunday of Week 1 of the NFL season. Join here.

 

- - Punt and Kickoff Returner Stats - -

More leagues are using punt and kickoff return yardage and touchdowns for individual players in their scoring these days. We don't have projections for those players this year, but we've come up with hopefully the next best thing.

 

The 2009 returner stats are included in a special Projection Pal file available for you to download and import those stats into the Compiler. The stats will be inserted into the custom fields in the Compiler, after which you can adjust the scoring, and see just how much players like Percy Harvin, Josh Cribbs and Darren Sproles move up in value compared to leagues that don't score for return stats.

 

If this will be of use to you, read this forum post:

and get the Projection Pal file here:

- - Windows 7 64-bit - -

We've had exactly two people tell us there are issues with Draft Buddy on their new Windows 7 64-bit system. There is something in Buddy that doesn't agree with that version of Windows. We've narrowed it down to the countdown timer, which we've taken out for those two users. If you have a similar issue in which Draft Buddy won't open and you are using Windows 7, contact Mike MacGregor and he'll get you set up with the alternate version while we work to correct this issue.

Okay, that concludes issue 2 of the CC/DB Insider. It is almost August, and if you haven't drafted yet draft day must be fast approaching. Have fun prepping to have a killer draft and take the first step to winning your league!

 

Cheers,

 

Mike Krueger and Mike MacGregor
