Anything would be nice....
I have asked FIRST to make this Draft Order data available on several occasions over the past 4 years. Nothing. Not sure if the requests ever got past Bill. We very much want this in Michigan since our District Rankings depend on the draft order. We could automate all the FiM standings, but we are missing this one slice of data from each event. The way it is now, We must manually enter this data each week.

I requested this again about 2 weeks ago. Frank Merrick immediately replied and requested a followup discussion after the CMP.
I think we will finally get this issue resolved for 2014.
