As for the rules, I didn't look them over, so can you give me a quick run down?

Pretty basic setup. I did set it up as a PPR league, with receptions being worth .5 pts. I also bumped passing TD's up to 6. I always figure that all TD's should be worth the same. I don't like them being worth 4, while all other TD's are worth 6. I did make Int -3 to counter the increase but good QB's will be worth slightly more in this league than a standard league. Here's a basic rundown of everything:

Passing TD's - 6
Rushing TD's - 6
Receiving TD's - 6
Int - -3
Fumbles - -2
Every 10 rushing yards - 1
Every 10 receiving yards - 1
Every 25 passing yards - 1
Reception - .5
100 yards rushing or receiving - 1pt bonus
200 yards rushing or receiving - 2pt bonus
300 yards passing - 1pt bonus
400 yards passing - 2pt bonus
Defensive points are set to the default standard settings.


Start - QB, RB, RB, WR, WR, Flex, TE, K, Team D.

Top 4 teams make the playoffs.

I'm also on call a lot and never know when I'll get called out to work. So, it will be kind of tough for me to give a day and time. Once we get most of the guys to narrow it down to a couple of days, I should be able to give some input.

I'll be up front, with my schedule, I might have to do auto-draft, but do not take that as a sign that I will not be competitive all season. I will be there all season.

Not a problem. ESPN does have a pretty cool pre ranking system that allows for a pretty good autodraft.

Fwiw, I think we may have done a Sunday Night last year. Personally I would prefer a Sunday, start time between 8-10.

Yeah, I'm in two other ESPN leagues and had one draft last night. Sunday night should be good with me. After 9:00 would be best as the little hooligans' bedtime is between 8-9, but if it is earlier, I can make it work.

[Aquapod770]

I just can't do monday, tuesday, or wednesday nights. Other than that I should be able to make it.

Hows this Sunday work for everybody? Say around 10 pm?

I won't be able to make it, but I'll continue tweaking my rankings.

That should be fine.

[Night's Watch]

Just to be clear, that would be 10 pm eastern time??...I am on the west coast, and will be driving down to phoenix to watch the Reds series against the diamondbacks, but I will make it work either way, just wondering.

Yup, 10 oclock eastern. And just in case anyone is wondering, these online drafts usually take a little over an hour. So we should be wrapped up before the local news.

Good for me.

[Paul from Dayton]

Fine for me

As soon as the last spot is filled in the league I'll finally be able to set the draft order. I'll be sure to post it on here. Fyi, I just hit a "randomize draft order" button and it will set auto set the order for the draft.

Stay tuned...

[Toast Jones]

Reminder. The draft is tomorrow night at 10 oclock. If you can't be there PLEASE let us know. (I already know about Shake and he's preranking his draft)

Also, we're still one spot short. If it's not filled by tonight we have some problems. You can't completely set up the draft until all spots are filled, and it has to be done at least one hour or prior or it's cancelled automatically. The problem is I will be gone all day tomorrow and probably won't be home until around 9pm. So basically if I can't get someone to claim that spot by tonight the draft is off. And to be honest, at the point someone else can take over LM duties.

I've been trying to fill that spot and have invited about 5 different people. Everyone says they want in and the spot just sits there unclaimed. I'm not sure what the problem is but we're running out of time. If ANYONE wants to play and is capable of opening an email and following simple steps to join a league let me know. It's all yours.

[This is our year]

If this weren't a PPR league, I'd definitely join. I may join anyway if you still need another person.

I Call for a recount, lol, I will take this handicap and proceed to own all of you thoroughly.

Which team is yours? If it's #10 that's a great pick IMO. I was actually a little happy to draw 9. I like 1, 2, then 3 or 10. I'm pretty sure 5-7 tend to be, statically, the worst picks to have.

And really, when it's a snake draft it all evens out. I still love 10 though. Love picking twice in a row and being able to gameplan easier then waiting to see if it someone is off the board.

Yeah, I'm at #10, just playing around though, it doesn't matter when I pick. I like picking twice in a row as well, I just don't like waiting forever for my next picks, lol. I do find the gameplanning actually non-existent, with 18 picks in between mine, not really much to game plan for.
