I will probably build over 110 dots on Day 40. That's my plan every season anyway. Then about dot #60 I get sick of the click click click click etc etc and finally say "that's it, that's all the fuc*ing clicking i can take"

Would make better business sense to allow us to make dots ahead of time for Day 40's blessed day. I'd have better names, less OCD, less carpal tunnel and would end up spending more Flex over time.

Please.

I believe this has been suggested before but can't recall what, if anything, came of it. Kind of like a prebuild dot freeze right?

Sounds good

yes, let us knock out 10% of our day 40 quota each day so we can smell the flowers on day 40

you do realize you have day 40-48 to build all these

9 days, build 11% each day

not that big of a deal

that takes discipline and a plan. I have neither, it's a big deal.

Epic suggestion. Should be implemented ASAP. Agents should be able to create dots no matter what day it is.

"Check Box to freeze dry this player for Day 40, click here to build another"

Done

I can relate. I built about 50 dots the past offseason between days 40 and 48...and it sucked. Especially the EQ part.

Much part of the regular season prior I already knew I was gonna do this, and could have spent more time doing so with the create/freeze till day 40 option.

I +1 just for it making it easier and an option that no one is forced to use but also gives no benefit to those that do

I can think of a possible easier suggestion to this other than letting the builds be earlier. Seriously, when reading your complaints about all the clicking from building so many dots... changing the day they're built on doesn't change the amount of effort it takes to build them (same amount of clicking). So, with that in mind, might I suggest allowing the NUMBER of dots you build at a time be selectable? Example below;
I need to build 5 CB's. Currently I have to do that one at a time. What if I could select "build CB" then have a dropdown box allow me to change that from 1 to #whatever? This way I could select 5 and , *poof*, I just built 5 CB's (flex cost applied and multiplied automatically). This would mean the current system of buying a DOT would have to change a little... you would have to build the dot(s) first, then go through the "naming" process later as well as selecting the archetype(s) after the blank dots are built(but before applying any SP's!). Perhaps you could even make dropdown selections available for archetypes and, later, SP applications (for those who build ALL the dots for their team(s)). This way someone could go through the HUGE dot building process a little faster. Does this work better than your OP, dusk883?

I don't build them all the same though. Some I build bad, and others I build worse

ETA: but nothing is as bad as my reading comprehension skills

But this isn't only about PeeWee leagues. Many team owners outside of PeeWee also build the dots for their entire team. By allowing us to purchase multiple dots at a time, it saves time for the builder... and anything that saves time for the GLB user is a bonus to everything GLB.

meh

It's peewee owners that have to recreate their dots every season.
