⚙️ Draft Settings
Configure before the draft. None of this needs to change once you start.
How long the big drafted-player card is held on the control screen and the draft-board TV before it flies to the board. Does not change the "Latest Pick" TV, which always shows the most recent pick.
When the clock expires and the grace period runs out, the app drafts a random player from the top 20 available by ADP for that manager and moves on. Off by default — turn it on only if the room agrees. (Needs the pick timer enabled.)
Between picks, blurs & greys the player board (hiding names, ranks & position colors) so managers can't just grab the top-ranked guy. The clock is already running; a big Ready to Pick button reveals the board.
League Rules & Starting Lineup
Set your starting lineup slots (used for the "roster needs" hints). Edit the scoring below to match your league — it shows for reference during the draft.
Teams, Managers & Draft Order
Drag the ⠿ handle to set the pick 1–12 order for today. Edit names and managers inline.
Keepers (pre-draft)
Pre-assign kept players to a team and the round their pick is used. Keepers leave the player pool and are auto-drafted when that pick comes up. Set these before the draft starts.
Data & Export
📱 Connections (phones)
Players join from their phone at http://<this-pc-ip>:8777/lobby.html using the join PIN, then tap their team (it locks to their device). Release frees a team if someone tapped the wrong one — it clears the connection only, never any picks. You can always pick for anyone from this control PC.
Your lobby gets a private Draft Guide button (sleepers, live suggestions, opponent needs). Opening it asks for the Settings PIN, so only you can use it.
Set both if some managers are in the room and others are joining remotely. The “Latest Pick” TV shows whichever ones you fill in, side by side and labelled — full-screen before the draft, then in the bottom-left corner. People in the room should use the Wi-Fi one: it is faster and keeps working even if the internet drops.
🧪 Simulate / Test
Auto-drafts a full random mock draft — no animations, no clicking — so you can stress-test the board, recap, and exports. Replaces the current picks (keepers are kept). Click again any time for a fresh random draft.
Backup & Restore
Auto-saves a full draft backup to your Downloads every few picks so you can recover from a crash. Import one to resume exactly where you left off (teams, managers, keepers, picks, times — everything).
