Nice problem to have.

Most likely that it'll be McCoy alright.. I'm just overthinking things a bit I'd say.

fisgon · 18-08-2013 9:18am

Any word on a draft time for this league? We probably need to get moving on deciding this.

Anyone else left to fill in the draft poll???

Last night would have suited lovely, actually thought I had it filled in already. Could we add 10 pm to the draft? We have the first 4 rounds done so it won't really be that long anyway. (Probably too late at this stage).

JaMarcus Hustle · 29-08-2013 7:30pm

Looking like Sunday 1st / Monday 2nd @ 9pm are favourites. Either is good for me, and I'm happy to push back to 10pm if others are. Will finalise the time tomorrow evening so all input appreciated.

(Apologies for being a crap GM up to now, have been working mostly off of smartphone internet until now!)

fisgon · 29-08-2013 8:23pm

My preference is for Sunday at 9pm.

BTW, I checked the draft list from last year, which is as follows...

1. raven136 - The Klique
2. JaMarcus Hustle - Dunluce Demons
3. skeleton boy - Show Me Them TDs
4. Raoul - Dundalk Oriels
5. malachyscott - Westbest
6. WilcoOut - Outkasts Revival
7. Hulk Hands - Prestige Worldwide
8. eagle eye - Eagle Eye Patriots
9. Spongey1975 - Spongeys Fluffy Crocodiles
10. BastardPrince - Project Arcturus
11. evil_seed - 4th and centimetres
12. boccy23 - Boccy's Jockeys
13. Coeus - Henry Le Cheat
14. fisgon - Pick Sixes
15. Mr Guappa - Oh Look An Eagle
16. CoachTO - Lomira Lions

All but WilcoOut and MalachyScott have posted here in the last month or two. We need to check whether those two are continuing this year or not, otherwise we'll have two dead teams in the league.

Spongey1975 · 29-08-2013 9:09pm

Thats the final standings for 2012 so the draft order this year will be the reverse

Coeus · 29-08-2013 9:28pm

Sunday @ 9 is my preference but can do later if required. I think a Sunday draft will avoid most other draft days I see posted on the main FF thread...

GoldFour4 · 29-08-2013 10:59pm

Sorry guys completely forgot about this league! I'm in again though! Any draft time except Tuesday night and the division 1 draft on monday is fine with me

I definitely won't be available for a Sunday draft. Monday would be grand though. Either way I'll set up my preferences anyway.

GoldFour4 · 30-08-2013 12:24am

I can do Monday, it just can't clash with Div1

TO. · 30-08-2013 2:08pm

Monday suits me better than sunday

boccy23 · 30-08-2013 2:10pm

I'm happy either way. Sunday would probably be a preference. If it's Monday, I'd prefer 10PM.

skeleton_boy · 30-08-2013 10:43pm

A guy drafted Hernandez with his last pick in a league of mine that drafted tonight. This came up in the draft report afterwards.

"Aaron Hernandez is owned in fewer than 10% of Yahoo! leagues (8%). Let's hope that a.) The Tactlenecks has some solid inside information, or b.) he's a close friend of the family."

I'd certainly hope it's not option b

JaMarcus Hustle · 31-08-2013 8:55am

Well its pretty much neck and neck between Sunday and Monday then. I'm genuinely tossing a coin when I say that I'll select Sunday @ 10pm (the later time seems to work for more).

Is that okay?

eagle eye · 31-08-2013 11:18am

10pm wasn't on the poll, why would you select that?

Hulk Hands · 31-08-2013 11:20am

Monday for me but I can manage either

TO. · 31-08-2013 6:47pm

Just pick Sunday at 9 at this rate. Its the first day of the two that have the most votes. We could debate on here for hours who can do what. Seems logical just to roll with the day and time with the most votes that comes first.

Edit: You are also running out of time to pick Sunday as it is. NFL.com have a 24 hour window of picking dates and times.

JaMarcus Hustle · 31-08-2013 9:06pm

Draft is set for tomorrow at 9pm.

Best of luck everyone.

Order for the draft has been randomised

I thought so, I now pick last in the round rather than board

Yeah i noticed that, thought it was reverse order last year.

No idea. Going to guess and say JMR forgot to set it.

So basically we are going to have to do it all over again tomorrow night?

JaMarcus Hustle · 01-09-2013 9:00pm

Didn't realise it reset to random, thought it would retain the same settings as last year. Will just have to reset the draft afterwards as it won't let me now, so don't bother drafting tonight. Tomorrow @ 9pm, sorry guys.

Are we doing it tomorrow night instead?

GoldFour4 · 01-09-2013 9:07pm

cool cool, any chance we can move to 10 pm tomorrow night?

TO. · 01-09-2013 9:08pm

I will have to set my auto thing or find someone I trust to draft for me tomorrow.

Whatever people want.

Apologies for the mix up tonight, my bad completely.

GoldFour4 · 01-09-2013 9:12pm

Division 1 draft is at 9pm so I'd imagine a few would be involved in that, I don't really like the idea of trying to draft two teams at once :P

eagle eye · 01-09-2013 9:23pm

9pm is fine, I'm drafting in two at 9pm. Its better to get them both over at the same time imo. You are going to be picking early and in the mid rounds if you are doing two at different times. Your ranking list shouldn't differ much between the keeper league and the other one. Only difference is there are less elite players available in the Keeper one.

Yeah okay I don't mind, might be handier to get them out of the way so!

raven136 · 02-09-2013 7:22am

A total fcuking disaster
had to autodraft due to a family occassion
laptop went nuts
put the wrong keepers in
whoever got doug martin...youre welcome and i somehow ended up keeping Luck and Cam
Just awful
if anyone wants to trade for luck offer me anything decent

edit...we are doin it again tonight??

JaMarcus Hustle · 02-09-2013 1:03pm

Reset for tonight @ 9pm.

Setting the draft order now as last years last place gets first pick, and so on. Correct?

Also, do we want snake (1,2,3,3,2,1,1,2,3 etc.) or linear (1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3 etc.)? I forget what we had last year.

Sorry for being a clusterf*ck of a GM this year!

Spongey1975 · 02-09-2013 1:58pm

It was snake last year, not enough keepers to justify linear

Raoul · 02-09-2013 3:54pm

Don't forget to look at the keepers and make sure everyone has set theirs Commish! Had a disaster last week in a keeper league where the first two rounds were for people who didn't pick keepers.

I agree linear only works with more keepers.

Is that not allowed? I know it happened last year, but do we want to outlaw it this year? I'd completely forgotten.

Some people have only picked 2/3 keepers so looks like they wanted to take advantage of this. Discuss?

You dont have to keep all 4 guys if you dont want to. I dont think we should force people to keep players.

fisgon · 02-09-2013 7:56pm

I've only got 3 players worth keeping, and that's all I am keeping. On the league home page it says that "you can keep 4 players," not that "you have to..."

boccy23 · 02-09-2013 8:12pm

I'm only keeping 2 at this rate.

GoldFour4 · 02-09-2013 8:34pm

I'm only keeping 3.

Raoul · 02-09-2013 8:48pm

Ah feck that. I have 4 locked in

Hulk Hands · 02-09-2013 8:55pm

Ah feck too, there's no way i'd keep 4 if I knew you'd get an earlier pick

eagle eye · 02-09-2013 8:57pm

Something very wrong looking about this draft too. Only showing a few people to pick in early rounds but nobody else?

Also I've only two keepers but am only showing once in the first couple of rounds.

Raoul · 02-09-2013 8:57pm

Yeah, we did a draft last week and we had no idea what was happening. I really think it should be 4 keepers and you have to keep them but understand its my fault for not being sure of the rules.

Raoul · 02-09-2013 8:58pm

They are the people that didn't keep 4 players, they now get the choice of the whole pool of players.
