don't do it...I have one more that wants to play...commish if you need the e mail addy I can get it for you!!! Please send her an invite!

Go ahead and send me the address - like I said, if there's more interest than available teams, we can add teams if needed, or start a new league, too.

I forgot to put this in the last message - please let me know by this Thursday (8/9) if you want to do the draft this weekend at the original time or sometime on Sunday. Thanks! :)

I am completely unavailable this Saturday, I'll be at a convention. Sunday may work. Later would be better for me. :D

***Draft Update***

According to Yahoo:
Your live online draft is set for Sat Aug 11 10:00am PDT [ Add to My Calendar ], which is 1 day, 19 hours, and 44 minutes from now (test your system). Please arrive at least 10 minutes early since your draft will start promptly at the assigned time. You can rank your players up until 45 minutes before your draft.

The draft order will be randomly determined approximately 30 minutes before the draft begins.

Your Head-to-Head league will not be able to start the season if it contains an odd number of teams.


Currently, we have 9 teams, so we need at least one more team to play. Deadbear - would a late afternoon time on Sunday work for you, just thinking that way (I think) all players can participate in the live draft.

If it doesn't work, then we may just stick with the normal time, and I apologize for the conflicts :(

Unfortunately, no. On Sunday I'm taking my sister to lunch and to see Wicked, so I will pretty much be unavailable from about 12 noon Central Time on. It's her birthday, so we're also joining our parents and our brothers for dinner. Which means I won't get home until at least 9 PM.

The Saturday time still works well for me.

All right, we're going to keep the normal draft time - so tomorrow at 10am PDT is when the draft begins.

Best of luck!

(DaemonSeid, if you still have someone to play, let me know - or anyone else does, for that matter. We need one more player!)

Quoting to reiterate this fact - if we don't get another player before 9 am (PDT) tomorrow, I'll create a "dummy" team so that we have an even number of teams.

I think if anyone knows of anyone interested, all you have to do is get the league info from the first page of this thread, rather than an email invite - I'm shutting the computer down for the night, but will be up early tomorrow if an email is needed :)

Best of luck to all players!

My team looks tight considering I didnt get to the pc until the 5th round....LOL

Hey commish...question....why do we have 3 WR slots? most leagues use only 2...

You know, I've always been of the opinion that fantasy football or fantasy baseball (or whatever) was just dungeons and dragons for the people who always thought they were too good to play dungeons and dragons, but secretly always wanted to...

Ummmmm yeah....whatever you want to believe....

Not sure of the reasoning, but I just kept the settings from the previous years that we've done a GC league.

Live draft was pretty fun :)

A lot of the Yahoo! Leagues that I've been involved with in the past use 3 WRs. ESPN leagues tend to use 2 WRs. I think it's just what the default settings tend to be that the sites set up.

Hey commish...why did you add the 6 bench spots? The fun of FF is having a decent waiver wire. With so many bench options that goes away...

Okay, I'm putting my disclaimer in now: I've *never* been a league commissioner, just played. With that being said...

I was contacted that having some additional bench positions would help when it came to bye weeks of players - so I added bench players (and didn't know how many to add, so maybe I went overboard :o) to the league :)

If we have a problem with the number, we can still change it - I'm just trying to make this fun and interesting for everyone!

Also...if any of youo missed out on getting a team or just want something a little less complex to try and still enjoy the season....


...here are the links and pertinent info u need to use to get onto the leagues, if u have any questions or problems let me know

Kinda sucked if you started Brees or McAllister or Bush.

Was expecting that game to be a whole hella lot closer!
