    Default Yahoo - Max Games Played - 65?

    My GM said lowest option he could set for Max Games Played was 65. I'd expect they'd add an option for 56 now, for this shortened season.
    What's the best way to contact Yahoo on this to make sure it's getting done?
    We draft on Tues.. it could affect strategy if we have to assume and stick to 65 (eg. drafting an extra forward instead of a D to use up the extra capacity)

    Have you contacted Yahoo to find out? I see the same restriction as you.

    EDIT: I've just contacted them so hopefully I'll hear from them soon. If anyone else have heard back about a fix, please post here. Thanks.

    I wrote them as well, so hopefully it gets resolved soon enough.

    EDIT I got a response back that they're aware and working to resolve the issue.

    I have received the same, general reply about getting it fixed soon, but no details.

    Default Yahoo Max GP

    Apologies if this isn't the proper forum.

    Yahoo has not adjusted the options for Max GP to the new NHL 56 game schedule. The lowest you can go is 65. This is....not ideal for nonweekly leagues. Anyone have a workaround or any insight if a change is in the works?

    I've noticed they haven't provided adjusted trade deadline options either. It's a bit of a mess. Very weak job by them. Best you might be able to do is get in contact with support.

    Contacted them and the only replies are saying they're working on it and hopefully fixed soon (paraphrasing). I sent a follow up yesterday asking for more details, including putting a note on managers' league pages and I'm still waiting for reply. Will probably chase again tomorrow.

    We just decided to call it 65 for the year so the GMs in the league can plan accordingly. Maybe a good idea to have a little flex this season anyway. F'ing Yahoo.

    Just received another brief reply saying they're still looking for a resolution. I went back asking about letting leagues know (i.e. notes) and what options are available if it's not fixed in time. Will add on here when/if I here more.

    By the way, there is another thread about this (basically asking the same question) so I'm going to merge the threads together so everyone gets notification for any updates.

    Yeah I noticed this as well. I seem to remember last year forgetting to check early and having to change during the season, which was possible. Might be an option again this year when later dates are available.
