I doubt they will be reversed, as they last time it was tried it didn't go very smoothly. But at least the deadlines should be postponed in my opinion.

Also, it looks like some transfer deadlines were extended, but not all.

Extending the transfer deadline must be done for all players or it is unfair.

I have been watching three comparable players and had bid on the one with the soonest closing time. Now, because the deadline has not been extended the player that I had bid on is now closing last, and I can't bid on the other two players that I was interested in because my money is tied up and I might end up with both players.

I really can't understand the logic to extending only some of the players....

I appreciate the front page apology, but why not just take the site down? It must be better than everyone trying to log in just to get booted out or not be able to navigate any of the pages….

We all know that the BB team are doing their uptmost… I’d rather it went offline till the problems were fixed rather than appear from the outset everything is fine when it clearly isn’t…

this is the first time i have logged in successfully for a while and I had trouble up to 2 hours ago.. bidding is near on impossible.... i would hope that the clock is just reset for everyone and we all move on...

they can't just shut the site down since they are still waiting for the other server to arrive. i can understand shutting down a web site for a day, but for a number of days that would be too much to ask.

well yes, keep it running (if lucky one maybe managed to adjust some settings for the next game or watch the standings etc).
but all transfers should have been disabled for the time when bidding does not work almost at all.
i guess i'm just lucky i did not have any good players on sale with bidding ending today, the players would have been sold for nothing, would have lost a lot...

now finally bidding seems to be running ok.

I am sure they have everything under control.

I put in a bid (and won) for a player earlier today, but they player is not on my team, meaning that the player will probably be relisted. Hopefully, I will get the money back.

we stopped the transfers from happening as soon as we were aware the problem was serious and wasn't going to be immediately solved.. that might have been a few hours. We then moved all the transfers back which went off during that time the transfer scheduler is down. I am sure we didn't get all the transfers that were affected by the downtime, but reversing those few is probably going to cause more of a headache than it is worth.

I can´t agree with you. Yesterday Ii tried again and again to bit a player and I was successful. So I don´t know why I shoul be punished when I did much more then other player who gave up it immidiately. Now I will not have a time to make bits so that player will gone.

But OK, mass is mass.

If only a select few can access the site, then where is the fairness in that?

I agree that this should be extended cause I by myself lost few bids because of this not expected mass...

Ok, but I spend 3 hours to buy these players and that is lost time for me. It ´s not fair too...but I have to agree if I was selling my players I would be angry for that.

So I agree with return all trades.
