Hi Bruce, excellent work! thumbup1.gif

I noticed this bug last year but never posted anything about it. I just started filling in info for this year and found it again:
When I set a straight draft for enough rounds, the last several rounds will be serpentine. The first rounds will follow the same order, but then towards the end it will start reversing the order in every other round.

Thanks!

How does the pick order look in the setup? Does it show the last few rounds as serpentine? How many rounds are you drafting? Have you tried clicking the Straight button on the pick order tab after setting the number of rounds?

The setup is where I can see it happening, the last rounds are serpentine.
I have this one set for 38 rounds and it starts serpenting in round 20. Last year it happened with less rounds. I think I had a 12 round setup and it serpentined the last two rounds.
I've always set the number of rounds before hitting the straight button, filling in all the info from left to right.
Thanks!

Ok. I see it now. If you increase the number of rounds, and then go to Pick Order and click any of the change buttons (Straight, Serpentine, etc). It only changes the original number of rounds.

Workaround: After changing the number of rounds. Click OK to exit setup. Then go back into setup and click the desired Pick Order (Straight, Serpentine, etc).

I'll fix this in the next version.
