How do you input your leagues scoring and stuff? In the manual I see you can; I just can't figure it out?!

Thanks,

File / Setup

There are several tabs under that, but you should be able to complete it all without having to look at the manual again.

Has anybody EVER gotten any customer support feedback from those guys?

I've sent like 10 emails over the past year regarding things like being unexplicably dropped from the daily email list... or more recently, the Draft Dominator app crashing every time I try to use it. I've uninstalled, reinstalled, tried on both my computers... crashes all the time. And I use plenty of other apps (Office, Photoshop, I even used to run video game dev software on one of them) with no problems... Draft Dominator is the only app I have that ever has any problems.

But do they even give so much as a courtesy reply email saying "Sorry, but we don't know what's causing the problem on your system" or asking for more info to troubleshoot it? No. I get silence. I even sent an email once that said "Hey, I'm just curious, do you guys read customer service emails? I just want to make sure there's a live body on the other end." Unsuprisingly, it was met with the same silence as the other 10 or so emails I've sent them. And I know I've talked to at least one other person who's had similar experience.

The site is great, but the customer service is non-existent... just wondering if anyone would beg to differ.

Thanks TB.

Using it to check scoring/projections on a 30 team league I am co-commishing. The top LB scores darn near the top RB! ;-) Going to be a blast and we have open slots. I will post about it here after the constitution is finished.

Just get a user account and post in the Dominator forum. Works for me.

I would be careful with what baselines you use for IDP and strange leagues like RIFC and others. It can lead you astray pretty quick on jacked up leagues like that with really odd starting reqts.

It's good to sort of guess what people will do. Like RIFC:

QB 10
RB 35
WR 30
TE 4
DEF 3 (sigh)
PK 1 (or it will throw the thing off)
LB 4
DT 2
DB 3

Then roll from there.

Also for RIFC put in 1/1.6/1.4 for starting DL/LB/DB for flex since you'll start an extra LB 60% of the time and so on.

for me the interface is just too clunky. it's easier for me to load projections onto a spreadsheet and then assign the league's scoring system to the columns.
I can do this for projections from 3 different sites and then compare them when making my picks.

I dl'd dominator from their website last night to look at their projections and it still has LAST years projections, so you're in deep crap if you're using it to make picks.

Never used this application before. I'm not interested in dominating drafts. I want to dominate leagues.

Yes, but isn't the key to dominating a league a dominant draft?

Hadn't thought of it that way MC. But now that you mention it, I'll continue to ponder it.

It is a big key. You either have a great draft or you get real lucky on the waiver wire/free agents. Sheesh, win one RIFC and your a league dominator...

Win one RIFC? Try "win every RIFC in history."

[Note to self: Man, I am going to be eating some major crow if I don't perform well in this league this season.]

As always, I will defer to the undisputed, undefeated, RIFC champion. (aka the master of disaster, the king of sting, the......)
