I put in a waiver claim on Deion Branch. I'm waiver 9.
dhazer put a waiver in on three players. He's waiver 12.
He got one player on his first claim, then second claim got Deion Branch.
I thought being 9th, I'd have gotten him over anyone 10th or higher. Especially since he got someone in his first claim.
I have had issues with waiver for a few years now, (which is why I like the first come first serve but I'm alone on that).
Can anyone explain the waiver thing to me, because I'm obviously and idiot when working with it and dhazer is a freaking Genius at it. He's owned my ass a few times on this claiming people, lol.

That's weird man.
It certainly shouldn't work that way unless it was some kind of bug.
FleaFlicker has a few of them that I've noticed.
Hell, they still list Big Ben and S. Holmes as on suspension, and the IR system has some kinks as well.
But yeah, if Branch was his 2nd claim and he got his first and Branch was your first ahead of him, you absolutely should have gotten your pick.

I haven't noticed any issue with the waiver claims in a couple years of use.. however I have never nested them like Hazer is either.. wonder if there is some issue with the process as it resets your claim position after you are rewarded a claim.
If his first player was a unchallenged claim.. his second one would be reset to 1.. and depending on how they process the claim.. his position might be mistakenly been bumped ahead of your first claim.
Can't see the transaction history in that league.

I dunno man. I think dhazer just owns my ass in fantasy football, lol. This happened a few times last year in Yahoo! but I thought I was going crazy, so I actually wrote my waiver position down and everything. He still got the guy.
It's just gotten really funny to see it happen again and again. I've decided to just not try to claim players from here on out unless I'm short on the position. I feel like David vs Goliath and the story was rewritten, hah.
My team is doing ok so maybe it's a good thing I didn't get the claims? :)

Your waiver claim position right now is 7 out of 12. (This means 6 teams can submit claims ahead of you. At worst, you'll get your 7th choice.)
Each time one of your claims is processed, your waiver claim position drops to 12 (to the end of the line).
You may submit as many claims as you want. Fleaflicker will attempt to process all of your claims.
WTF, I only have one player I'm going after! 7TH?

Don't play it like you're doing me a favor. You're not starting Rodgers because A, you're pissed off at him and B, he's playing one of the best defenses in the league, lol.

LMAO, unreal, someone four seeds AFTER me got the guy, the ONLY one I was going for.
This is incredible. At first it was annoying, but now its happening every time, it's funny.
Next season, its going to be first come first serve. I'm done with this waiver order since no one can explain it to me and I fail to understand it. ;)

OMG I claimed three bums and I got them all! :(
On a positive note, I scored enough points this past week to beat 10 teams, individually of course. BUT, as with my other two freaking losses, the team that scored the most in the league was my opponent.
dhazer beat me silly, slap me in the fast, and said 'bitch' and kicked me in the mouth. He had nearly 50! more points than me and I was the second highest scorer. Punk! :P
