If your pool to allow poolies the ability to change their picks, make sure you remove this ability pretty darn soon. Otherwise your poolies will be able to log in and change their picks at any time!

And if you are not an admin, but notice you can change your picks, you may want to send a friendly reminder to your admin. Unless , of course, you need to "freshen up" your roster first.

To lock your standard draft pool, go to [Pool Settings] -> [Basic Settings] and set 'Pool Lock' to 'On'

To lock your box pool, go to [Pool Settings] and set 'Pool Lock' to 'On'

If you have any questions about this, leave a question on this post, or email support@armchairpools.com.

How often will the stats / standings be updated?

I locked my pool but seem to still be able to edit my players. Why is that? Are administrators allowed to go in and change selections still?

Tempting, if true

IG – The stats will be updated after the final game of the night. I think the last games will finish around 11:30 so you’ll see them around midnight.

ML – Correct. Administrators can always change the picks. This makes sense because you could also just go unlock the pool when no one was looking which amounts to the same thing. Don’t give into temptation. Unless you took Holmstrom, then duck in there quick before anyone notices …
