Waivers - Customizable waiver processing time.
This will allow commissioners to choose when their league's waivers process. Currently, there is no option to change what time waivers run.

Yeah, Love this idea. Commissioners should be able to set at what time the waiver period ends and FA begins. Right now some people in our league wake up at 4 AM to get first bids on free agents which seems unfair. Allowing to specify a time would work better for everyone.

As well there is a problem because not all players are made free agents at 3am. If a player was involved in a claim, but not ultimately claimed they are not made available until waivers are processed at random time later in the morning. All players should be released simultaneously and at the time the league chooses.

This won't happen for many reasons.

Being able to set a customized time for when waivers process in a league would be ideal for FAAB (Continuous).
Example: Being able to set the waivers process time to 9am PST Instead of the set unchangeable standard of midnight PST.

I agree! this would make Continuous FAAB more enjoyable.

How about 9 a.m. Pacific, 8 a.m. Mountain, 7 a.m. Central and 6 a.m. Eastern? It's ridiculous that we have to try and get up in the middle of the night to pick up a free agent without losing our waiver status. Why is it done this way?

With the Yahoo FFL current restrictions, the waiver period ends on Tuesday at 3:00 AM EST. This means that free agency opens at this time, which is not very convenient for those who don't want to burn their waiver spot for the week, but still want first access to the free agency pool. Can you please make the waiver period end time programmable?
