mock draft
Is anybody else having issues trying to do a mock draft? I've installed the Java program but it isn't allowing me to go any further. It says "install successful" but it doesn't go to another screen.

I got further than that, but still was unable to run the mock draft. This ought to be fun......

Same issue here. When I try to test the draft it asks me to install Java which I've already done. I can't get past that point. I suggest we have a backup plan in place.

I assume it'll autodraft if we don't manually draft......

Is our draft order already set?? It says it's set by the LM-what's that the League Manager? If so it's interesting that kins picks 1st--or will it be a random spin just before the draft?
I've done my mock drafts so don't need to-but Brinn is right about a backup plan as I don't trust ESPN as far as I can throw it.

I'll set the draft order before the draft. Its the reverse of last season's standings. Crap, I haven't tested the draft yet. My only guess is to do this damn thing offline unless someone has a better idea.

hey, Wayfriend...we are running a java ESPN football draft. The problem seems to be that the java enabled tabs are coming up.

This is the link to the test hopefully it works.

I think the draft will work alright as long as you can reach the page that says download java and reboot. The draft window should pop up a little before the draft begins so be ready.

I did some checking on the net and it seems that 1 hour before the draft ESPN allows you to enter the draft room and gives you two options to access it; The first is via the Java application and the second is a "lite" HTML version. People say that the "lite" version works great if you have any issues with the Java version. I would suggest testing both about an hour before the draft to see if they work and to get accustomed to the interface.
