I'm trying to put one more league together. . . ten teams, no frills. Post here AND PM me your email address if you want to play. Scoring will be similar to my other leagues, for those who have played them (it's the same system as the forum league, also)-- I will post the rules later, let me know if anyone has questions. We'll have to get at least eight, I'd like to get ten. It's also posted on my facebook, so a few of my non-board friends will probably be playing as well-- as of now we need seven, maybe eight more.

unless we maybe do it late tuesday night, i don't think i'm going to be able to work you in to this one, i'm afraid. . . i can't do monday, and MO and i already have another league drafting tuesday. . . let me check the time. . . i won't be able to be home early tues, either. . .

If we can make it 6:45 mt I can do that. I get home from work around 5:30-5:45 PT

that's close enough for me, i can work with it if other peeps can. . . any later and me and MO might be overlapping with the start of randy's league's draft, but we can autodraft the last couple rounds or juggle if we need to. . .

actually, i'm hoping people can make this time work, because we don't have tons of options-- not if we're gonna get T in. . .

MOtorboat
08-25-2012, 10:28 PM
Fine with me. I can juggle if need be, dog. I'm crossing my fingers I don't have to work late that night, almost positive, but, you never know, either way, by 7:45, I'm likely home...

6:45 or later MDT works better for me as well, as there is a small chance I will have dinner with some out of town coworkers that night, but we usually eat early and I should be able to slip out and bring my laptop for a quick draft.

Either way, if it's Tuesday, I'm in.

as soon as sparkie, tned and UA get signed up, the site will generate our draft order and schedule. . . i will post all of the league rules here later, and obviously you can view them on the league site (fleaflicker) as well. . .

THE DRAFT WILL BE THIS COMING TUESDAY, AUG 28TH @ 6:45 PM Mountain Time

if you aren't gonna make it, take a few minutes to pre-rank your players-- we all know auto-draft can be funky. . . .

Can't get the Fleaflicker draft client to work in either Firefox (Java issues :coffee:) or Internet Explorer. Running uptodate versions of both browsers.
This will be fun, as it means i'm gonna have to prerank and autodraft in both this league and Loonyleague. :madgrin:

alright..fleaflicker client seems to be working ok now with firefox ..matter of enabling a disabled plugin!
think problems earlier on were to do with slow internet traffic. dern holiday weekend :madgrin:
just pray that the firefox/java issue doesn't flare up at 1.45 in the morning (transatlantic draft time).. :tongue:

Tsk. I slept through and woke up an hour and half after the draft start.
Nevermind. Pre-ranking worked out reasonbly well. In fact, bar one player, my starting line up worked out exactly like a mock draft I did this morning!
Not quite so happy with my bench, a couple too many TE's but it could have been worse.

I planned to take Stafford two picks behind you, and when you took him, I went WR. I really thought I was going to get Stafford.

I'm not sure I have quite the rosy feeling about my teem as you. Felt like I kept having my targeted guys grabbed a pick or two before me.

Mo I can't believe you got Stafford in the 3rd. If I thought there was a chance that would happen, I might have passed on Rodgers 1st pick and went Foster...... I still like my team, so I guess time will tell.

I was a bit suprised to see Cruz go at #15. He did have a helluva season last year (right there with Welker stats wise). Just didn't expect to see him go that high. I have him a keeper league so i hope goes off, just not against me.

MOtorboat

I'm not as thrilled by the team I drafted later in the night, keep in mind it's a fairly deep 6-keeper league.

Lloyd
Bolden
Nelson

D'Qwell Jackson
