Has anyone used the CBS Salary Cap (Auction) draft room before? Our league normally holds live drafts, and last year we did it virtually...but this is the first time we've ever used an automated draft tool.
I've done a couple of Mock Drafts using the tool and have two questions:
1) Does the commissioner have the ability to pause the draft process? We'd like to provide a 5 minute break each hour and allow each owner the ability to call one timeout break. Considering the pace of this draft is much faster than our in-person process, going straight through without breaks might prove stressful.
2) If a problem arises, is there any ability to roll back a purchase. Lets say one of our owners loses connectivity during the draft and misses out on buying a player they wanted. Is there an ability to roll back the player, and restart the bidding on him at the last price?
Is there anything else we should consider? For our normal auction, bidding goes around the table in order, and when someone drops out of the bidding, they can't get back in. Thus, this will be an adjustment, to say the least.
Thanks for any advice you can provide!
