Um... so same time tomorrow? Or on Thursday just to get yourself revved up for the game?

Anyone want to do a pick'em?
Maybe Thursday is the way to go...But, we still need to get the league to an even number. Our alternative is to with the autopick. If we don't have enough by the latest draft time on Thursday, I'll just set the league to do that.

As for a pick'em, I'm up for it. Do you want to do it through Yahoo or just in a thread. Yahoo would be easier, but I think we're getting a taste of how participatory MR members really are....:rolleyes:
 
Ok so no draft at 5:30pm EST I guess? I'm searching the entire web page looking for that elusive draftroom, and can't find it. Ack so our draft has been delayed. Oy this may have time issues

It was supposed to be 20 minutes ago... but since there were only 7, i guess that Yahoo scrubbed it.

I guess it depends on when our Commish wants to do it...
Having an odd number of managers on Yahoo is a no-no with the live draft. Since there were 7, there is nothing I could do. The options that Yahoo has given me are: a) do an autopick draft or b) get another person, set a new time for a live draft, do a live draft.

I'll leave the choice to all of you. Just so you know, I'd prefer 'b'
 
sorry about not posting earlier - last night I couldn't get into the forums. I don't know what was going on.

The draft will begin at 4:45pm today. Also, I've locked the league at 8 - if two people wish to join and both let me know I'll expand it back out. I don't want to risk only having one join and losing our draft time - free leagues don't have a lot of options.
 
OK - for the 7 of you (I'm 8), the draft is in 30 min...4:45pm EDT (1600 EDT). That's 4 or 5 hours behind the UK. I think.
 
Just so those of you participating in the league know, I made one modification (which I intended to make ahead of time, but forgot) that shouldn't affect gameplay, but will lessen frustration - fractional points will be awarded. So, if your RB gains 99 yards rushing, instead of receiving 4 points (1 for every 20 completed), you will receive 4.95 (with the obvious 19/20 fraction tacked onto the 4 full 20). If there is any opposition, I will change it back.
 
i agree with that for sure. in fact, i've never played in a league where it wasn't fractional

i'd like to thank daunte culpepper for playing like a butt

Man, those interceptions just killed them. If someone had Charlie Batch on their roster and active last night, they did pretty damn good. He had a career night.
 
But, that's just Dante being Dante. :) Looks like a lot of us are already benefitting heavily from the partial points. Including Chris Chambers and his woeful 59/0 night.;) :mad:
