If we're not going to do a weekly claim window for players, anyone can feel free to use my system for posting a player claim at the stroke of the hour when transfers open for the week. At least then it can be a random crapshoot instead of me getting every claim. I have a Mac so this is in Apple-ese; hopefully Windows users can translate. I shall henceforth refer to this as the Ola Kamara System, or OKS.
1. Go to Messages on the SFA board.
2. Send a message to yourself.
3. Open your computer's Date & Time preferences so your computer clock shows with second hand or digital seconds ticking.
4. Ready a quick reply to yourself on the message thread. It can be one word or whatever.
5. At the stroke of a minute on your computer clock, hit "Post Quick Reply."
6. You will now have a reply to yourself from "a few seconds ago." Hold your cursor over "a few seconds ago" until the exact time of the post pops up, comparing it to the minute on your computer at which you sent the reply. You can now adjust that many seconds from the top of the hour for replies on the transaction thread. You may wish to practice a few times for consistency. My computer is pretty fast and the clock runs just about exactly to the message board clock - I post the reply 1 second in advance on my computer clock and it comes up as 00:00 on the transaction thread.
This is crazy of course. But not as crazy as distributing players this way in the first place.
