This week had more than its share of the unusual. St. Louis had to go for two-point conversions, a RB threw for some yardage, and a kicker rushed for enough yards to earn a fantasy point. On top of that, the box score I was using Sunday for the Chiefs had a bunch of receiving omitted. This has been corrected, but wouldn't have been a factor anyway since the stats from Sideline Sports (FFLM's creator) were correct to begin with. Reminder -- There are no trade windows. (ESPN has a Thursday night game.) This means that all tranx requests are done first-come, first-served. Also, all Detroit and Tampa Bay players will have their status locked at 18:30 EDT (two hours before kickoff) Thursday. If you intend to move them to or from your Week 8 lineup, it needs to be done by then. Home network update -- Things changed some. I built a new workstation after I had both hard drives go out. Small problem is that it doesn't seem to like the floppy drive I need to use to start building the OS. Once I get that fixed, I'll resume the work on the servers. (I'm also waiting for the latest copy of Lotus Domino to arrive for use on the Linux servers.) As always, once everything looks good and stable, I'll start the transition away from Vnet's servers to my own. (This is now looking to be November and may be even De- cember, depending on my free time.) The updated FFLM files for all four leagues have been posted to the FTP portion of the site.
