the mvp voting is automatic done by computer reporters from each team's hometown.

We thought we were careful about the demotion/promotion thing, but we'll take a closer look. Good news is we are growing so fast (about doubled in the last week) that you shouldn't be alone for long even if you are.

Also its possible there used to be humans in your division but they got promoted and you demoted....

actually now that I think about it, we made sure that the league you got put in had humans just the division. So probably you just got unlucky in your placement.. but like i said this should fix itself soon.

as far as drafted players, i'm sorry it would be too unfair to everyone else to redo the draft entirely. A clear picture as to where the bug was isolated to never appeared in time to figure out why some users were having problems and not others. Intermittent problems are the hardest to track down, cause we can't solve them if we can't reproduce them.

Not sure why the BB-maili didn't work..

to be a little more clear...

we had human teams in USA I, II, and III. So we had to demote teams in II to III, and promote teams from III to II. But because there are more people going down than up, and more humans going up... it would be impossible to guaruntee that everyone that went down went into a division with at least one human.

What I think we will do is make sure new USA signups get equaly distributed across USA III leagues which currently have humans, and only fill up the all bot leagues after that.
