blackngold_blood 4,304 Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 The star means they're counting towards your best 4, the check means they're playing in the upcoming event. With all zeros, it'll look a little funny but I expect it to sort out once events start happening. I guess it's good to see the check since it's more professional but a small piece of me misses the lettuce logo it used to look like.

Yea, that's a solid roster. Also curious why Hoffman (instead of Xander) would be among your best 4. But then, we don't know how "best" is determined...yet.

fixyurdivot 9,595 Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Has anyone figured out a way to see who has which players on their roster - other than opening everyone's team individually? Certainly someone has a Patrick Reed they drafted but are in pain having to see him on their roster... I can help. let's talk .

fixyurdivot 9,595 Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 So I see @Undershooterhas selected two of his team for our match at The Farmers. Near as I can tell, only one player on my current roster is listed in the "committed players". I have bids on players and hope to pick some/all up this Tuesday, but what happens if you cannot select (4) players for each event? I clicked the grey circle next to my players name and a little green check mark showed up (presume this to mean he's selected)? When I refreshed the screen, it now shows the same green check under CH3 - but I did not select him and he's not on the committed players list .

This is the situation that has been discussed previously but if you don’t have 4 guys playing in the event you can either pick up someone else that is in the tourney or roll with who you have. This is where the strategy of do you drop a player for someone else knowing that it is possible somebody else may pick him up.

Now I need to go back in and check my waivers list for chronic truancy. Does the FTx system automatically keep you from selecting players who have not committed to the event? You don't have to select anyone to play. Best ball format won out so it will automatically select your best 4 players at the end of each week. The gold star shows who is currently selected but it will change as the week goes on. With that said, it is ideal to have at least 4 guys active for the week. You aren't required to have 4 active though. Thats part of the strategy to it. The small green check mark shows who is projected to play the upcoming event. It's best to double check it though when possible, bc guys pull out of events at the last minute quite often.

fixyurdivot 9,595 Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 But if the system is automatically selecting the best (4) players on a roster, why the need to monitor their status (withdrawal)? Doesn't it automatically replace that player with the next best on the list - if there is one in the field to choose from? Are you able to override the auto-pick and choose another player(s) if desired?
