KDS Preferences For Mains, OC Plus & All Live Events
Okay, we're getting to that time of year when we have to set our KDS preferences and get ready for the big drafts. The first step of winning the big money is providing us with your draft preferences and getting that game plan intact. Are you ready for the first challenge?
Over the last two years, we've moved the KDS deadline closer to the draft date and we'll do that again this year. The KDS deadline is going to be at 8 am ET 5 days before your scheduled draft and we'll announce draft spots for those leagues before noon ET that same day. This will give everyone about 5 full days to prepare for their draft spots. Sound fair?
And please take the time to set your KDS preferences. We are allowing you to tell us which area of the draft you'd prefer to select from. You don't always get your top preference, but at least you're the one dictating your draft spot if you're picked early out of the random drawing. Not everyone wants the highest pick offered, so feel free to set your preferences as you'd like. If you like to be in the middle of the draft order, you might post your preferences like this: 7,6,8,5,9,4,10,3,2,1,15,14,13,12,11. Whenever you come up in the random order the computer will give you the highest available preference on your list. Easy enough.
You can find this on the first page on the left side after you click on your team. Just click on Edit Preferences and move the hangars in the order you want from left (most preferred spot) to right (least preferred spot). Easy enough.
Okay, here's the deadlines for the Main Events:
NFBC Main Event KDS Deadlines:
Thursday, March 24th: KDS Deadline is Saturday, March 19th at 8 am ET
Saturday, March 26th: KDS Deadline is Monday, March 21st at 8 am ET
Monday, March 28th: KDS Deadline is Wednesday, March 23rd at 8 am ET
Wednesday, March 30th: KDS Deadline is Friday, March 25th at 8 am ET
Thursday, March 31st: KDS Deadline is Saturday, March 26th at 8 am ET
Saturday, April 2nd: KDS Deadline is Monday, March 28th at 8 am ET
Here are some other KDS Deadlines:
NFBC Platinum League: Spots will be bid for using FAAB in Las Vegas on Thursday, March 31st at 9 pm PT
Diamond Draft, Sunday, April 3rd: KDS Deadline is Friday, April 1st at 8 am ET
Diamond Auction, Sunday, April 3rd: KDS deadline is Tuesday, March 29th at 8 am ET (not as critical in auction)
Ultimate Draft, Monday, March 28th: KDS Deadline is Wednesday, March 23rd at 8 am ET
Super League, Saturday, April 2nd: KDS Deadline is Monday, March 28th at 8 am ET
Super League, Tuesday, March 29th: KDS Deadline is Thursday, March 24th at 8 am ET
Super League, Saturday, March 26th: KDS Deadline is Monday, March 21st at 8 am ET
I'll add to this list as we add more live events. For all auctions, it's five days before the auction date so plan accordingly. Same with the OC Plus leagues if we sell those out in advance. Should be fun. Thanks all and good luck.

Re: KDS Preferences For Mains & All Live Events
For Saturday, March 26th: KDS Deadline is Saturday, March 21st at 8 am ET
I assume that's a typo and should read Saturday, March 26th: KDS Deadline is MONDAY, March 21st at 8 am ET?

Thanks, the March 26th Main is corrected above.Red Sox Nation- wrote:Hi Greg,

In the Diamond we pull the draft spots after we've determined the Platinum draft spots. Some owners are in both contests and thus we pick this one closer to the start of Sunday's draft and after the Platinum. So that one is correct. Thanks.

Assume this means no KDS for Rotowire/+? If so are draft positions randomly assigned and how long before start of draft does this occur?

All OC plus leagues will be five days before the draft date if the leagues are sold out. Ones that sell out four days or closer to the draft date will be done the day after they sell out. Should a league sell out on the day of the draft the draft order will be run within the hour.blibros wrote:Assume this means no KDS for Rotowire/+?
