00:00 Intro
01:56 Are the same people that SaberSim hired to do NBA projections going to be working on MLB and the other sports?
05:22 Can you go over today what the recommended fill method is auto-fill or direct fill and why that is?
14:50 When first creating a late swap tab, it has bullets about including original lineups and a couple others. I have heard you say before to always do that but have heard others say to leave it alone and don't click that bullet point. Can you talk/show a little about the initial setup when first creating the late swap AND what to do for each lock after that?
20:20 I understand we are always seeking positive ROI lineups however in looking at contest reviews for sports like Golf, MMA, and NFL showdown to some extent it seems the top winning lineups are pretty regularly negative ROI. Can you speak further about this?
23:09 Can you go over reviewing the late swap tab, in terms of the terms “requirements met”, “exceptions”, and the drop-down for a contest with the entry IDs, ROI change, etc.?
26:50 I have watched plenty of videos and recently joined SS via one of your partners, what process do you recommend for single entries in small to medium contests?
34:45 On the original popup on the bottom, do you recommend using default, or my build 1 settings?
