If there's an extra spot this season, I'd like to go for the bottom half of the league, which is about the best I can do.

BizidyDizidy · « **Reply #3 on:** August 14, 2012, 03:14:24 pm »

I'm in

I'm still in. Sorry, hadn't checked the forum on a couple days. I just got the invite email so assuming I'm still good to go.

DV in now commish.

I'd like to stay in, but if you need a spot or end up odd numbered, just drop me

JaneDoe · « **Reply #12 on:** August 16, 2012, 12:33:35 pm »

Last year I dropped out to make the league an even number of teams, but asked to be back in for this season, if possible.

Just invited Mr. Happy and once I get Jane's email, will invite her as well.

Now we need to discuss draft preferences and need everyone's opinion.

Do you guys prefer drafting next week, or the week of labor day weekend? A weeknight draft, or weekend draft? Once I know this, I'll set a draft date.

Waldo · « **Reply #16 on:** August 17, 2012, 10:40:06 am »

Just my preferences: not next week (will probably be at the hospital with a new baby), any evening after about 8:30pm CDT.

BizidyDizidy · « **Reply #17 on:** August 17, 2012, 01:18:48 pm »

My preference is any weekday night (not Friday)

austro · « **Reply #18 on:** August 17, 2012, 07:07:33 pm »

Weekday nights are good. Later in the month (after the inevitable training camp injuries sort themselves out) is probably a better idea.

Col. Sphinx Drummond · « **Reply #19 on:** August 17, 2012, 07:39:11 pm »

I don't care as long as it starts after 8:30 pm but before 9:00 pm.

Mr. Happy · « **Reply #20 on:** August 17, 2012, 08:38:53 pm »

I like the Labor Day weekend idea, but I'm available pretty much any time.

Lurch · « **Reply #21 on:** August 17, 2012, 08:55:28 pm »

To load balance their servers, slots per day/time are limited. Many of the ideal times (mid evenings) are already booked. You'll want to nail it down quickly.

Any is good for me. You can always plug in your player order and let it auto draft

DVauthrin · « **Reply #22 on:** August 17, 2012, 09:52:02 pm »

The draft is now scheduled for Thursday, August 30, at 8:45 pm central time.

Right. I've got a huge picture of that one in my head.

DVauthrin · « **Reply #26 on:** August 27, 2012, 06:23:20 pm »

Once Jane signs in to the league, we will be ready to draft on Thursday night. Also, this was a $30 money league last year. Is that something the league wants to continue?

T. J. · « **Reply #27 on:** August 28, 2012, 08:06:26 am »

I vote for $30 money league again. Gives people a little more reason to keep up through the year. I'm fine either way though.

Mr. Happy · « **Reply #28 on:** August 28, 2012, 08:20:01 am »

I'm okay with the $30, although it wouldn't break my heart if the majority voted against it.

BizidyDizidy · « **Reply #29 on:** August 28, 2012, 08:26:22 am »

I voted yea as well

Col. Sphinx Drummond · « **Reply #30 on:** August 28, 2012, 09:14:18 am »

I'm okay with $30, but not at the exclusion of any opposed. Either way is fine.

Waldo · « **Reply #31 on:** August 28, 2012, 10:06:15 am »

I can go either way.

Well played, sir.

DVauthrin · « **Reply #34 on:** August 28, 2012, 11:48:15 am »

I've had all votes for the league to remain a money league, other than some neutral responses. Thus it will remain a money league.

The best way to send me the entry fee is through paypal as a gift at [email protected]. If that doesn't work for you, I can make other arrangements.
