That way "discussion"* for the league can be here instead of the NBA thread. Also, so a time and date can be figured out for the draft.


*aka shit talking

Any weeknight after 8 PM eastern works for me. Saturday are shot because I teach all day and night. Damn, I hope I can make this draft... I HATE autodrafted teams and I've spent way too much time studying up on draft strategy in my big money league

Plus I think in the autodraft rankings someone said Curry was ahead of Kobe,

So who is the 12th?

I think Grace2. An attempt was made to get a non-user but I think it was too late.

I'm more than ok voting someone off the island to make room for the "chosen one" unless it's me of course

Awww, I thought it was me. I just didn't get the chance to email RJ until today.

Which means that you know who it is.

You would've been in before that person I was referring to. If you didn't see my post in the other thread, I'm probably going to be setting up another league. It'll be the same as this one but auction style.

[BotheLaneFan]

I don't know how to do anything auction style, so I'll pass on that shit.

I've never done it before either so thats why I want to do it that way.

[grace2]

If you guys want to get someone else in instead of me, it's cool. I'm obviously gonna whoop everyone's ass anyway.

Can I have someone else take over for me in the case of my (highly likely) death?

[rickyh24]

The only night I can't draft on as of now is Oct 12th.

Sorry Bo, if it makes you feel better, it didn't matter when you e-mailed me. Grace2 was the first to PM me out of anyone, just happened to be the last to accept the invite.


So when is this auction draft getting going?

And does the current draft time for this league work for everyone? Would later that same night be better?

[rickyh24]

Is this going to be an auction? The league is going to get all fucked up when someone doesn't show. I got 10 on Bo not showing up.

No not this league, this league will be a snake draft. If Andrew creates a second league though he was gonna do an auction draft.

[grace2]

I'm good with the draft as of right now.

Besides you I still haven't heard of anyone wanting to do the auction league.

[RJP2741]

Well let's go heads up then.

That wouldn't be fair. You'd get dominated. (although, could be fun- would allow A LOT of decision making regarding bidding ).

[CrashDMB237]

So what's gonna be the deal with this draft?

[RJP2741]

I'm leaving the draft date and time as is, since no one has said they can't make it. If it becomes an issue, I can change it later.

We should probably discuss stakes, $10-20 seems to be the range everyone is comfortable with, so we should start to figure that out.

[rickyh24]

Whats the date of the draft?

[RJP2741]

Sunday the 17th, at 8 right now.

[rickyh24]

Works for me.

[grace2]

If you guys are doing it for money for sure, you should let someone else take my spot. I know it's not a ton of money, but I can hardly manage to afford anything lately.

[rickyh24]

I am fine with 10 or 20. Whatever everyone wants to do. If we can't get enough people I will play for nothing. I just know people will not check their lineups consistently and it really sucks when a head to head league. It's a lot funner when everyone is doing whatever they can to win all the time.

Some monetary value will give me incentive to keep up with it (unlike the fantasy baseball leagues ).

I agree with this too. We'll see what the consensus is and then if people want to drop out that's fine and we can try and fill it, or we can just play for nothing.

[RJP2741]

I know Brett said he would put money on the league. So that makes 4 confirmed for 10-20 on it. How does everyone else feel about it?
