Rookie Draft...set bots to auto select?

[Kingswood]

Draft started 5 minutes ago. I'm in 3 leagues and set a draft board for each team. However, looking at each of my leagues, it appears my most active league will still be about 8-10 hours before a human pick "could" happen (first 8 picks are all bots in my most active league...in my least active league, it will be more like 10-12 hours before a human pick could happen). I understand why auto-draft is set up the way it is, however, couldn't someone with access to the entire league just go in to ownerless teams in each league and lock the draft board with no players on it? Then the program AI would select the best available player and move on immediately versus waiting to do that in an hour. It's work for CD to manually lock the boards in each of the leagues, but it would solve the problem and reduce draft time by several days.

Theoretically anyone not in the league could pick up a team, set to auto draft, then drop it right? Then you could essentially just lather rinse repeat throughout the leagues for all the bots?

I think you are technically correct Kingswood. But can you take another team in your league to hit the draft board lock?

No, you can't own multiple teams at once, and once you abandon a team there is a 10 day delay before you can pick that same team back up if I'm not mistaken.

That would mean that you'd be abandoning your team for the draft. I'm also not sure that once a team was abandoned that the auto-pick wouldn't revert back to 'factory settings'.
