Expansion Draft Bug?

Sven Draconian · 04-12-2007, 02:07 AM

I posted this in the general forum, but it may be a bug.

I tried to expand my leage. I had a 10 team league ran 10 seaons and created a second subleague with 2 divisions each. I reorganized the structure to have 3/2/3/2 divisons, then expanded by two teams to have two sub leagues of two divisions with three teams each.

I scheduled the expansion draft and the normal screen pops up. I go out of that, create a manager and take over one of the expansion teams. Then I go to auto-play to get back to the draft screen.

The screen is blank with 3 tabs. One is "Rules and Order", another is Continue Draft, the final one is Draft Log. I get a pop-up that says "Draft is not complete, go to continue draft to draft players, good luck" (I paraphrased). I had already set the order previous and submitted the protection lists.

I click the "Continue Draft" tab and its blank. No teams, players, order anything. That screen is blank. The Rules and Order screen is blank. The Draft Log is the HTML report that has no players on it, jus the OOTP, listing rounds 1-9.

I can resign as manager and the game will auto-play through the draft and players will end up on teams. I just can't find a way (or the way is broken) to draft the players myself.

Sven, I'm very sorry it took so long to respond to this thread. I have logged this issue as TT 3516. Is there any chance you have this league still available, in case Markus needs to take a look?

I ran into this today as I was preparing to run a league in which I would take over an expansion team. After some tests, I believe the problem occurs when the draft pool in your league is already published when the expansion draft is set to take place. In other words, moving the draft pool revealing date closer to the actual ammy draft allowed me to process the expansion draft as usual.
