If there was a technical glitch at Yahoo, or MFL, or another hosting site that didn't allow you to change your roster would you want to have the chance to set your lineup based on the guys you would have otherwise started?
If there would have been a public email or notice on the webpage prior to Sunday's games, I wouldn't have minded. If MFL or another hosting site had an issue, you can be damn sure they would let everyone know about it and make preparations well before the games started. Classy and acceptable - acknowledging the issue in advance, making that week's lineup rankings for pros public, then making the adjustmentFilthy and underhanded - stealth score adjustment overnight SundayRapiddraft deleted their forums because there was no admin representation there so it was just chock filled with complaints and site issues.Calling this place a second rate application would be about 15 levels too kind.
The other hosting sites would have known there was an issue because users would have let them know.That's one of the inherent problems with RD, the only real users are us, and we didn't have a problem. They didn't know the program didn't run to set the "Pros" lineups, so they couldn't have possibly known in advance that it wouldn't run. There was a scoring adjustment on Sunday, before the week was done, and an explanatory email on Monday. If everything was done later in the week, I would definitely find that unacceptable, but they found out after the Sunday games and fixed it.I'm not going to argue that there have been some serious issues with RD this year and them removing the forums is really poor form, from a professional and customer service perspective but I don't think they need to be skewered for the lineup issue. JMHO.
