Oh it was an Id10t error. I was trying to sign up in the premium league.

BTW, Warshington Dumbikes will reign in total domination this fall. Prepare to weep. See you in the fall.

Join away!

RM: Unfortunately, it's hard to guarantee that people can all sit down on draft day and actually make picks, that's the main reason for auto-draft.

 

[BurlyShirley]

I'll join a league not run by rob.

 

[Ridemonkey]

But with the manual draft if people don't show they just get auto-picks. It's the convenience of an auto-draft, with the flexibility of a manual draft for those who can show up.

 

[BurlyShirley]

Yeah, auto draft takes the fun out of the whole thing. The point is to prove who know talent the best.

 

[greenchris]

im all for a league but no way am i down for an auto draft

 

[robdamanii]

Ok, we'll go to live online.

Anyone have a particular day/time they prefer? Sunday evening? Friday evening? Saturday morning?

[greenchris]

watch out for team o'carlson rules

 

[Ridemonkey]

An evening during the week generally works best for me.

Bump for people who may want to join.

 

[robdamanii]

Anyone else signing up? Live draft is on 7/12!

 

[dogwonder]

Chronic Bedwetters are in...

 

[Brian HCM#1]

LOL, me too

 

[reflux]

I don't plan on joining the RM league, but I just wanted to let everyone know that I can't wait for football season to start. I will be nearly peeing my pants in anticipation for the next few months...

I'd be in but the draft is much too early for my liking, any chance of moving it back? Too much stuff goes on in camp and pre-season to change things. I prefer to draft as late as possible.

Think I was 3rd last year and 2nd the year before, this could be my year.

Hrm.

I like the idea of pre-season being already drafted. I can deal with moving it back some. I arbitrarily chose a date that would be in the middle of nothing.

Anyone have any problems with moving the draft to August in the interest of getting more people into this?

I'm unable to join at the moment...

But if I can get in, then... why July 12? Why not, say, after the 3rd pre-season game? EDIT: you covered that... how about August 15 at 9pmEST/6pmPST?

I'm not in the country on the 15th.

Howabout August 2 (wednesday) at 6:30pm?

you wanted auto-draft, so your vote don't count

Auto draft would have solved this problem from the start.

Trying to make everyone happy.

I've never understood fantasy football or fantasy_______(whatever sport) and I think I will continue to keep it a mystery.

Is there a point to it?

Mindless armchair quarterbacking...it makes me feel smart (or stupid)

 

[Rip]

Napoleons are in, prepare to win every match.

 

[LordOpie]

so I joined and have to ask... 14 BENCH PLAYERS??? 14?!!

How about 6?

Also... -3 for missed fieldgoal, ok, interesting. Interesting bonus points for 300yd passing and 100yds rushing.

4 POINTS for an interception? Too much.

 

[LordOpie]

Draft Time: Wed Aug 2 4:30pm MDT

I don't think so.

Not only does that suck for me, but anyone on the west coast, you're asking them to do it at 3:30pm?

It can't be earlier than 5pmPST/8pmEST.

 

[llkoolkeg]

For as much as I love football, this fantasy thing just does nothing for me. I simply don't have the time or desire to involve myself in anything fantasy that doesn't involve women. Anyways, isn't the whole scheme just a way for the jock-friendly to play Dungeons & Dragons w/o appearing limp-wristed?

That's "game," not "match," Zoolander.

The Headhunters also support a late draft.

Frequently there's real money involved - this league is just for fun.

Sorry I played in the band.

Now you're going to get all that way on D&D? sheesh...next your going to say that knitting is gay too.

My fault. I thought times were all PST. Changed.
