Coincidence? Need your thoughts

MackDaddyMike

Yesterday, while the draft picks were on sale, I figured I'd try to get an all star team by drafting every player.

I was using an iPhone 5.

Things were going well until I hit 999 draft picks. Up until then, I had a few game crashes but was always able to reload the game and continue drafting.

Now that I'm at 999, the game takes about 5 minutes to load only to give me 'Network Error.' If you hit retry, the game will just crash after another 2 or 3 minutes.

I'm wondering if it's just a coincidence, or has GLU put in some restrictions to prevent us from obtaining every player. Just found it odd I ran into a problem at a number like 999.

Also, if anyone knows a way to get by this, I would love to know. Currently can't play the game unless I somehow get to the store interface and trade in the players I spent all day drafting (which I obviously don't really want to do).

By some miracle the game loaded tonight. I drafted about 9 more players til the app crashed and become unplayable again.

Looks like it will be difficult to draft all 158 first rounders within the time range of a draft picks sale.

999 players was where my game started crashing also. I don't think it is a coincidence at all. What is more frustrating is when you finally get all the players, you can't sub in the players that you want without the app crashing. I have sent complaints in to GLU about this nonsense. I still haven't received a reply. I love this game but the greed is ridiculous.

I drafted every player all at once. I have every player in the game and it just won't load anymore. It crashed all the time but even if I was able to get in, I can't trade in my inactives because there is no other player I can get. That team is now dead. Can't even enjoy my all star team that took me months to get.

ive been thinking about going for every player too. I was wondering when you are spinning for players in a certain round if it shows on the wheel that there are only 2 players left when you get down to only 2 players left in that round. If it does could you just go to the next round and continue to do that until you get to the 1st draft picks?

What device did you use Belzer? Clearly my iPhone 5 doesn't have the horsepower to draft everyone at once.

I don't have another device to test with, but I'm curious if every device experiences game breaking lag when going for all players, or are some better than others? There aren't too many apple products with more power than the iPhone 5 (the iPhone 6 and maybe one of the newer iPads). I thought I would be okay with an iPhone 5, wonder how Android devices hold up?

Tried this and unfortunately still get Network Error. Might be this recent update that is doing this, as I've seen a lot of other people complaining about network errors.

I have the iPhone 5S. It was slow but only a few crashes.
