Hello,

I was wondering if you had instructions on how to import the new rankings from lastplayerpicked.com into the spreadsheet for this year? I tried and it did not seem to work. Any help is appreciated.

I can't even get either the Auction or the Draft workbooks to open in Excel 2010.

The players can be updated by users like yourself. I like the idea of automating updates from Last Player Picked, and will give some thought on good ways to do that.

This is just what I have been looking for to help ...

This is just what I have been looking for to help on draft day. When will you list the 2010 players? Can I import them myself from a website? Can i do it from Last Player Picked? This is where I can create my own settings.

John,
I have an updated player list that is probably more to your liking. This has been updated across both Auction & draft, but note that I had to take away the 2nd set of zips projections for now.

Germain,
The bandwidth issue is due to this article I wrote on the NCAA tournament. The condition should improve in short order, though in the meantime, if you have an auction upcoming, drop me an email and i'll send the file over gmail.

Thanks so much. I didn't realize the main one wasn...

Thanks so much. I didn't realize the main one wasn't auction based.

Is anyone else having problems loading the files though? It keeps saying the bandwidth is all being used. I'll try again later

John,
Just a follow up,
I tried to reload the players but still didn't get projections for your entire list. I have passed this query onto my player list source here

I think most of the projections didn't appear since they were below a certain $ threshold when collecting them.

In the meantime, I suggest patching by adding rows to the spreadsheet or overwriting some of the free agent slots at the bottom with these guys.

I can't figure out where to input the final bid amount for each person.

Hmm.. thanks for the heads up...

Hmm.. thanks for the heads up...

I'll see if I can get a fresh player set from lastplayerpicked.com and post a revision by tonight.
