You in too, Joe?

I'm undecided. Plus I may not be available for a draft. I may just join the NFL.com game. Pretty sure we did the ESPN game last year because I remember the format of players' value multiplying in each playoff round.

I don't know if there is any site to be able to do this, so the draft would be on the board... it should not be a long lasting draft at all with the group we got... Assuming we find the 6-8 owners(which looks good) we should start the draft Monday...

the way the draft order will go, I will give everyone a number 1-8 and i will go to Random.ORG and i will let them randomize the numbers... I will do the randomized order on Monday before the draft starts...

1. Milk
2. Chef
3. Steelers
4. Wil
5. TKO
6. Joe(if he joins)

so right now we have 5 in one maybe and looking to get 2 more...

OK thx

fantrax has a playoff format that u can customize

At the end of 1st round (2nd week of the playoffs) will it be a mad dash to the waiver wire or will we do a redraft where u can keep any players u already have?:suds:

I'll give it a shot.
Not sure I understand all of Milk's rules, but that can be my disclaimer.

Good Joe, you will enjoy this league!!!

Molsan recommended Fantrax for this... I am on fantrax now making the league... This actually makes things easier for all of us... there are some minor things i need to change with scoring...

also, now that we are using a fantasy site the draft order can be randomly chosen by the site, we could still do the draft on this board if you all want...

I should have most of your emails, i don't think i have AverageJoes, or Wils...


Wil, i checked on MBBRL where you are co-owner with Shady, but i can't get your email that way, i can only send you messages and you me...

Looks like a few of us are there. Note to anyone not used to Fantrax: every once in awhile someone's browser gets a bit fussy on the site, for whatever reason. I've found that Firefox works best for me, others have found that Chrome works better. Just a heads up in case you have any problems.

Does anyone use IE anymore? I wonder if they ever improved that thing...

3 notes:

1. Fantrax does not allow the Best teams to have the top priority on the waiver wire, so the waiver process will be done on this board and I will insert the teams in... We will do it like a draft so nobody gets their players stolen...

2. For the QB scoring I could not find incompletions, so instead it is +1 for completions and -.25 per Pass attempt...

3. as expected Fantrax doesn't allow the feature of a disappearing bench... so after week one(before we do the waiver wire) I will delete the bench spot from your roster.

Again, if you have not gotten an invitation yet it is either because I don't have your email or because I have the wrong email...

Milk, I asked Wil and TKO to send me the league info. They have my email.
Is the league you created on Fantrax called "PLAYOFFS" and are you commissioner gm08 ?

I am a fickle person, once i changed it to +1 for completions and -.25 for attempts i now like that more...

So after Week 1, how do we change players? Say I have first waiver; do I say for example "I'm dropping Cam and taking Brady"? And can the next person take Cam?

yes... when it is your priority you can drop whoever you want to add someone... that player dropped can be taken by the next owner...

the purpose of the next priority is to be an advantage over all owners with a lower priority...

to be more fair, there will be a dropping period before the adds...

for example if my bench player is a QB and my previous starting QB made it to the next round, I now have 2 QBs and only one spot, so i need to drop one due to the disappearing Bench...

The secondary drops(if a player is available who is better than who you are starting) can not be taken in the same round he was dropped in...

so in your example if you drop cam to pick up Brady cam can not be taken until the next round of adds...
