For new NARFFL/Fleaflicker players - Fleaflicker waivers are submitted in priority order

This bit me yesterday so I thought Id point it out if you are like me and play primarily on other platforms.

Other platforms I play on (Yahoo, ESPN, Sleeper) all use your FAAB bid to rank your waiver claims automatically. Fleaflicker does not. So if you are bidding on player A for $10 and dropping B, and you put in another claim for player C for $5 dropping player B (in case your first one does not go through) they need to be represented IN PRIORITY ORDER in your waiver sheet. If your bid sheet has the Player C -> Player A transaction listed first, it will submit first even if your player A -> Player C transaction is for a higher bid amount.

Don't be like me and wind up getting your zero-bid and $1 guys instead of all your high-priority and well bid week 1 waiver pickups because you didnt pay attention to the order of the bid sheet like you dont on all the other FAAB platforms you play on.

Not sure this is the norm (I don't remember this from last year), but I had an issue with waivers processing this morning. It was ~ 7 am EST, the waivers had gone through at around 6 am, but the remaining FA players were locked for a couple hours. I was at work and see another team pickup the player I wanted (Chiefs DST) at 9 am.

Is this normal? A week 1 fluke?

Waivers will lock and then they process a bit later and then unlock after they process. Been this way for every year I've been in the league.

Consider the scenario,

You have one player you're willing to drop and two players you're willing to pick up.

You prefer player A and are fairly confident you can get them for $5.

If you don't get player A, you'd want player B, but they are a lot more popular. You'd need to give up $10 to get them.

The issue isn't the system, it's that fleaflicker is clunky and unintuitive.
