Room for one more:D. If there are three more people that are interested, I'll add 2 more slots. I need an even number of people in the league.

Ok. I forget what the format was last year, you picked my team as I could not make it ;)
Does the draft go like: ( Round 1 ) 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8.... then ( Round 2 ) 8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1.... then ( Round 3 ) 1,2,3... ??

Also, has AVG been contacted, he was in last year.

Great, I hope avg can join us.

on a side note:
I need input on the draft type we do: on-line or off-line?
Online: Pros: Faster (timewise)
Cons: must be organised or yahoo picks for you.

Off-line:
Pros: tradition~comradery, user friendly, no rush to decide, if you can't attend, I pick for you.

Cons: Slow (may take 2 hours), must have a working mic and yahoo voip working.
Oh, on a draft day note, late Aug would be great Sat or sun. The first week of sept is really bad for me, as have have my civil war stuff.
If you can't make the draft, it's not the end of the world, we can work out the details.
Jason

Oh, what the hell, I'll do it if there's room or if AVG falls through.

I don't like Yahoo picking for you, so now I am thinking Off-line, but does not really matter in the end.

mookie, if there are others interested then Jason had mentioned he could add more than just the one.

Offline is the way to go.

League is full. :dead:

Send Jason ( mcbee ) a PM, if you can get one other person to join than I think it is still possible.

I prefer an offline draft but am open to the online.

One thought: For an offline draft you really don't need a microphone. You can just type your picks in the chatroom when it's your turn. You do need speakers though.

Check your pm:yeah:

Holy crap.....I went from a two conference league to a four division league.:salute:

Nice :yep::up:

Dear Commish
(I'm haveing difficulties envisaging NickiMcBee in the Miller Lite Commish outfit)

Is it this weekend or next weekend for the draft?

I've heard back from enough people that Aug 30th sunday at 11 am (pacific standard time) is a good time for them, so I'll go with that.

Please budget about 2 hours of time for the draft. ( that's how long the last 2 have gone)

If you can't make it then, I'll post more details on what to do.


I'll post some more later:D

Please try to make sure to email us all a reminder the day before so I can set my alarm (I'm going to be a tad drunk the night before, as it is me and my wife's anniversary). :up:

Sweet, you'll be hung over:hmmm:. So, what you're telling me, you'll be drafting the Lions roster:haha::har:

Draft day notes
 

Things you need for Draft day:

2 hours of free time

A funtioning version of yahoo messenger.
This has caused chaos in the past, so make sure it is working before the draft. If you want to talk to everybody, you'll need a (functioning) mic. You absolutely need to have working speakers so you can atleast hear everything. If you don't have/want a mic, when it's your team's turn to draft, you can just type it in chat mode.

I have most of your IM names on my friend list, so if you're not on my list, please add me (nikimcbee) to your list. This helps in the creation and joining of the chat room. **if you don't like any IM, this is the only time we use it, so you can un-install it after the draft.

What if I can't make the draft?
No worries. Submit a list to me of your position order (by round) BEFORE the draft day (aug 30th) and I'll pick the next highest player from the yahoo draft ranking list that's avalible.

Roster Positions: QB, WR, WR, WR, RB, RB, TE, K, DEF, BN, BN, BN, BN, BN, BN BN= back up players

Anything else I'm missing, feel free to add.

If you see me on-line, feel free to contact me to test everything out before draft day.

:D

52 hours to dday bump:ping:

<48 hours to dday:arrgh!:

Less than that now! :yeah:

I want that t-shirt, so hope the draft swings my way.
