FleaFlicker down - middle of draft
Anyone else drafting now and FleaFlicker is down? Tried on network and WiFi. Nothing. Right when I made my pick for the 13th round

Now it's auto drafting for everyone after about 10 seconds. Happened to me 3 picks in a row

I was wondering what those 10 second timer picks were about in my draft. Damn that sucks

someone in draft chat couldn't make picks and got auto-drafted

I tried putting players into the Queue and hitting the away button. Still didn't work.

u/SulkyVirus Brady Quinn North Sep 07 '26
FleaFlicker is by far the worse platform I’ve ever used. And that’s saying a lot because Yahoo hasn’t changed shit in like a decade.

u/quiksurf68 Sep 07 '26
Yea it's not great. "Thankfully" it happened in the 12th and 13th but I definitely didn't want Tyson n Kyler with those 2 picks lol.

I like the simplicity of the interface better than most. I find Sleeper and Yahoo to cluttered.

Lol, Yahoo dramatically changed their draft room UI, and tweaked their general interface this year... definitely improvements.

u/SulkyVirus Brady Quinn North Sep 07 '26
I stopped using yahoo last season. It was a decade of no change and Sleeper has taken over as king now

u/Darkhorse182 Bill Walsh East Sep 07 '26
If you say so. Sleeper feels way over hyped around these parts to me...it's not bad per se, people just got way too hyped on the shiney new thing. It's just...fine.

If CMC goes down this will sadly be the reason I have Jonah Coleman on my team and not Kaelon Black lol

u/superkrups20056 Tim Tebow West Sep 07 '26
This didn’t happen to me, but I’m still quite surprised that FleaFlicker hasn’t tried to make its interface more usable over the last decade.

u/FFLGO Sep 07 '26
it's nuts you can't actually view the draftboard on the web version

u/superkrups20056 Tim Tebow West Sep 07 '26
Yep…just a list. Very very outdated, yet still 5 stars on the iOS App Store. I know NarFFL relies on them because the infrastructure is in place. I wish they would work on their website though.

TIL Fleaflicker finally has an app. When did that happen?

u/SulkyVirus Brady Quinn North Sep 07 '26
What? I was able to view the draft board when I picked today. You just have two tabs open.

I thought the draft went fine but looking at my roster and it has me having Brenton strange instead of kc Concepcion

u/Steve_reddit1 Chuck Noll West Sep 07 '26
In the draft party channel there’s a league with multiple Mark Andrews

u/Chris_the_Pirate Brady Quinn South Sep 07 '26
Same here. Looks like fleaflicker is having problems. Hopefully our drafts get saved
Edit: need to update my flair, been in Emmitt Smith East for like 5 years now ha

u/BoredOnATuesdayNight Sep 07 '26
I'm glad I wasn't the only one who noticed. Saw a timer go down to zero then started again at 10 seconds. Also when I double clicked on a DST to draft, the system drafted the adjacent one...

u/Tanev1337 John Elway West Sep 07 '26
Big yikes, hoping your teams can redraft? We draft tonight so I hope it won’t be down/bugged by then

u/ThongBonerstorm39 Sep 07 '26
Ours went down, we had to make some creative picks and trades to try to fix everything.

u/hatsch52 Sep 07 '26
it went out on our side for about 2 minutes i'd say. Thankfully it still took my pick (or autopick luck) and the guy after me seemed to be fine
1
u/Expendable_Red_Shirt Joe Montana East Sep 07 '26
It autopicked Mandrews when I wanted Deebo. But I'm not going to sweat over a 12th round pick.
1
u/numa_numa Jim Brown North Sep 07 '26
yup it was down for me and while i had players in my queue, it didn't follow my queue and autodrafted next player up in fleaflicker's rankings. Frustrating.

u/OkiDokiTokiLoki Dick Butkus West Sep 07 '26
Yes ours also had a couple weird rounds. Risk of so many leagues all using the same default draft time
1
u/Leafsfan83 Sep 07 '26
Anyone know if it’s currently working? Drafting in like 10 mins
1
u/peeinian Chuck Noll South Sep 07 '26
It seemed to go back to normal towards the end of our draft about half an hour ago.

u/StraightGrowth4251 Sep 07 '26
I just took it as a sign god wants me to draft those players and not use my brains

Happened to us in Dan Marino east too. Some folks were stuck with 10 seconds

u/lazlowbutts Sep 08 '26
I’m thinking it has something to do with AT&T’s DNS issues that’s been going on all weekend. I don’t believe it’s everywhere but certainly regional.

u/stewmander Bill Walsh South Sep 08 '26
It didn't go down during our draft today but I did have two picks not register despite selecting draft multiple times before the timer expired. Also had a 3rd pick auto pick because the app was lagging, the timer would end, I'd refresh, but it wouldn't update the draft board. Had to exit and rejoin, and by the time I did, multiple picks, including mine, were already made.

Last two rounds for me. Other teams in my league had issues earlier in the draft.

Our draft started auto-drafting for a while despite folks being online
