We didn't have to wait. Autopick just takes the next available player off your draft board as soon as you are on the clock. It's actually quicker than a live drafter.
To your point about the OP, though: Have you not discovered the
View Unread Posts link on the index? It's probably the best feature added to the new board, IMHO.

Kewl. Of course, Yahoo's predictions always prove to be crap, especially when it comes to IDPs, so pardon me if I take that with a grain of salt.
Of course, it now shows me at #2 tied with LTI at 11-2, so it may know something.

OP = Original Post, boss... still says the 30th and thats what I was going by.
Ultimately its my fault for not downloading the app sooner and staying connected. The "draft format" post was vague tho and had u edited the OP more poeple might have attended- myself included.

Ok gotcha, my bad on that one. I (ass)umed people would get the notifications from the Yahoo league once I made posts about it. Also thought we would look to see what the new posts were in here... again, (ass)umptions on my part.

Like I said its on me man.. the draft platform change post I saw, but just expected to roll wit it.. for some reason I missed the ones on draft night, despite being in hogwash. I had high hopes of making a playoff run this year and want to be a force to reckon with. Im a little salty but ultimately I know its on me. You shouldnt have to message here there private etc for all to see.
I guess my skills will be put to the test like Cappster to scout and make smart moves. I already got to within 10 points projected of you on opening week and that alone is an accomplishment! - being that u had nearly a 50 point advantage at first..
Anyway, Great draft on your part! Well played and deserving of the grade.
Do you or anyone else have the recap or at least draft positions? Im Curious to what went down..

The opening blurb from my draft analysis:
GRADE: A+
Loaded With Redskins, Deadskins Will be a Tough Team
In correlation with this draft, Deadskins has decided to open a nice little side business that teaches inferior opponents how to draft like a boss. After Deadskins hopped off the bus they used to take the rest of these kids to school, they built a roster that's projected to finish third in THN Football League with a record of 11-2-0 (1,947 points). They focused on having a balanced offensive attack, selecting QB Peyton Manning (10th overall), RB Alfred Morris (19th), WR DeSean Jackson (38th), and TE Jordan Reed (47th) within the first five rounds.

Draft Summary
Laughing Hyenas received the sixth pick in the draft and used it to build a juggernaut. The majority of the league will spend the season looking up at Laughing Hyenas in the standings, as they are expected to finish first in THN Football League with a record of 11-2-0 (2,003 points). With their first five picks, Laughing Hyenas focused on a balanced offensive attack, selecting QB Jay Cutler (62nd overall), RBs Montee Ball (6th) and Rashad Jennings (34th), and WRs Julio Jones (23rd) and Cordarrelle Patterson (51st). They landed the best WR tandem in the league, as they added Jones and Patterson to their fantasy roster.
With a draft like that, you might as well make it official. Nominate yourself for the Toyota Hall Of Fame.

Draft Summary
Picking late (eighth overall), L P J did what they could with what they were given. While this team isn't a juggernaut by any means, it's a team capable of reaching the playoffs if the chips fall their way. They are expected to finish fourth in THN Football with a record of 10-3-0 (2,011 points). With four RBs on the roster, L P J might have opted for quantity over quality at that spot; their RBs are projected to average 141 points this season, fewer than the league average of 155. They ended up with the best TE duo in the league, as they have Jimmy Graham and Jordan Cameron.

Yeah, I had Julio Jones last year, and he was leading the league in scoring (for non-QBs) when he broke his foot. That's my excuse for not taking home back-to-back Hog-Bowl trophies.

Man o man... kind of sad to see how it went down, actually!
Payton Stayed on the board until #10?! Wow.
Really shocking how late some of the qbs went.. seems like once one goes they all do in my other leagues.
It looks like there was a LOT of auto drafting.. Eddie Lacy before Morris?!
Im also amazed who was on the board when I autodrafted some of these cats.. not sure how Yahoo does that, certainly doesnt appear to be BPA.. im talking to YOU Rodey White!

I hope not. Try your best. You're probably ok on offense. Yahoo sucks on IDPs, though. I wish they would base their rankings on each league's scoring system. It would make so much more sense.

We all need to establish a method of communication within the league. I have been trying to contact you about joining the league for months and was very hesitant on deleting your spot. Luckily for you there was no one else that wanted to join and you FINALLY responded.
I'm deleting all of you and starting from scratch next year
