New FanDraft Feature: Whammy Players!
Some leagues like to assign a set quantity of random players to be designated as "Whammy Players".
These leagues will then penalize an owner that had the misfortune of selecting one of these players, by having them do something like "take a shot of alcohol".
Of course, we legally should mention that we aren’t encouraging excess drinking, so feel free to replace a “shot” with any sort of fun penalty your league wants to come up with. Get creative!
You can see this new feature in action, by viewing the video below
(make sure to turn your audio on)
To utilize this feature, simply turn on the "Use Whammies" option (from the SETTINGS area), select how many players you would like to be randomly assigned a "Whammy" designation, and then click SAVE LEAGUE CHANGES.
When one of these players is selected during the draft, a video will automatically pop up announcing that this was a Whammy selection.
If you would like to test how this works via a practice draft, we added a special "Reveal Whammy Players" ability for the commissioner.
Turn “Use Whammies” on
Click the "Enter Draft Room"
Exit back to league SETTINGS, and scroll to the bottom.
Click "Reveal Secret Whammy Players
Whenever you change the number of whammy players or "Reset Draft", it will reset who the random whammy players will be.
