There has been some discussion abuot making this a Keeper league in the other thread, being that many of the same of us have played over the past 5 or 6 years. If it were a keeper legue, the way it woudl work is like so... We woudl draft like normal this year, and paly like normal, but once next years draft rolls around, you would keep either 3 of your players (preferably your best, but if you want to kepp 3 kickers, It's all good.) Then we would draft to fill out the rest of our rosters.

The info for this league is as follows:

We have 14 Teams in the league right now. We have room for 2 more if any one is interested.

All Managers please vote on if you would like this to be a keeper league. Either post it here, or send me PM

Keeper sounds like fun.

Also thanks for changing the time.

 

[Azale]

I'm up for it.

 

[King of Town]

Keeper sounds great. Can you change the draft time a couple hours later? Maybe 7ish? Or else the Saturday before sounds nice too. Being that ity is a keeper league we probably want to get as many people as is possible out of auto drafting.

I agree, please change it to a couple of hours later or for a Sunday or Saturday.

 

[King of Town]

Have we decided if we are going to chnge the draft time?

 

[El Justo]

yes, i think that there should be an effort made to get everyone there live at the draft since it's a keeper league - autodraft pilot doesn't know we've got a keeper league draft...

 

[Ginger_Ale]

Can we get a sixteenth person to join (perhaps another from the first league) so that we don't have an odd number of players? If anyone can think of a potential player, feel free to let them know...

 

[dgfred]

Have we decided if we are going to chnge the draft time?

Is this the 3:30 EST draft? If so later would be much, much better.

 

[BirraImperial]

I don't think I can make it on Tuesday, I guess if the date or the time is not changed I would have to pwn you all with my autodrafting skills!

 

[rhawn]

I'd play in this league as well. Gonna need a draft time etc.

 

[BirraImperial]

If we do the draft after Sep 1st 11:59pm PT scoring will start on week 2, according to the main site.

 

[rhawn]

The commish can set the scoring to start on week 1 after the draft if we do the draft on Tuesday or Wednesday. That's also on the site.

Oops, thats right. Alright, so are we're still doing this on Tuesday?

 

[Zapp Brannigan]

would a change to 9 pm est work for most of you?

 

[rhawn]

7 or 8 est is ok if you want to push it up that far. I won't have internet @ home next week because I'm moving. I'm going to have to stay late @ work to do draft.

 

[Azale]

Later in the day would be good, just so I am not cutting it close with my school schedule and the draft

 

[Zapp Brannigan]

DARN IT! I just went to go change the draft time, but the latest yahoo had available was 5:45 pm est, which i obviously no good. It also has a 5:45 on Labour day,which might be better for some, being that there is no work or school, what do you think?

 

[Azale]

I'm game for Labor Day

 

[Zapp Brannigan]

At this point, changing it now would not be fair to the people who do not check the site today
