Worst part, is these guys go WAY back in terms of FFA and WIS Sims. Baseball for what, 12+ years now?
It's like part of the fabric of my soul has been torn away.

'83 here. I'm that weird Xennial generation. I definitely consider myself more X than Millennial, FWIW.
####in' Gen X'ers (I'm assuming here Rod, but gotta be, right?)
We're recording an EP as The Auctioneers
Looks like we'll start next week. First bids due Tuesday evening.Okay so when does this start. I really need to read the rules closer than I did the 1st time. I hate to be a pest, but I might need some hand holding to start

Basically you want to try to draft the best real-life team you can as a simple way to think about it.
The things you'll want to keep in mind about the SIM is that you need to be sure to draft enough guys with high usage so you can always field a team with 100% usg on the floor at all times. The SIM likes rebounding too. Defense is pretty .
i'd be fine with that,2 of the new guys could team up too if they're willing ( @modogg and @Niles Standish ). Or possibly @Long Ball Larry and Modogg since they're both big Philly guys.
Either way, as stated above, quite funny that we somehow ended up with too many people.
TRE is stupid anyway.:tips 40oz:

Such a millennial thing to say.'83 here. I'm that weird Xennial generation. I definitely consider myself more X than Millennial, FWIW.
we'll take the local dudes too. Rip Hamilton, Hank Gathers, Sheed Wallace... maybe little Kobe though Lower Merion blowsMake the Philly guys play together, and they can only draft 76ers or players who went to LaSalle, Villanova, Temple, Drexel, or St. Joe's.
Doesn't work that way with WIS. 24 team league.We don't have enough for 26?
No.we'll take the local dudes too. Rip Hamilton, Hank Gathers, Sheed Wallace... maybe little Kobe though Lower Merion blows
Will Jmon even bid on anyone in the top 72 to ensure he'll get top pick in the draft since a certain someone isn't on the auction list?Yahoo top 72 for reference....

Bembry $98Make the Philly guys play together, and they can only draft 76ers or players who went to LaSalle, Villanova, Temple, Drexel, or St. Joe's.
Even he would admit to that.TRE is stupid anyway.
I think we talked about using a list for a points style league this year because these Roto lists move the bad FT shooters way below their WIS value. I can run one from the basketball monster projections I have.Yahoo top 72 for reference....

Exactly what I was thinking.Will Jmon even bid on anyone in the top 72 to ensure he'll get top pick in the draft since a certain someone isn't on the auction list?
That's fine...or we can just use the ESPN or SI top 100 list.I think we talked about using a list for a points style league this year because these Roto lists move the bad FT shooters way below their WIS value. I can run one from the basketball monster projections I have.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1zPplN7n3qxnTLMrK884fLqvLL6p-b55OrpvMj5TE8kE/edit#gid=0Do the auction rounds just work their way down the top whatever list from top to bottom?
Can we get a link or report on how the auction went last year? I'm just looking for some sort of indication of what bids win the various player tiers.
In the immortal words of Jordan Crawford, "who else gon' shoot?"the moops said:Dennis Schroder?
sounds like a plan then, let's do itNiles Standish said:I wouldn't mind that either.
maybe after I go 10 for 10 making the playoffs, I will do just that. 5 in a row seems too easy with this group. Although since I am the ONLY ONE to do it, maybe not so easy? should I be giving myself more credit?Frostillicus said:Jomar should quit imo.
Let's start talking a bit before draft date. Although I think that's close to now. I think with 2 minds we are now the favorite in this thing.sounds like a plan then, let's do it
All I want to do is beat Frosty, the rest is gravy to me. PM me if you want, or I can a little closer to the time and we can figure out details
That's fine, though I question any ranking with Cousins in the top 6, but I digress.So, day one's bid group will be...
1. Karl-Anthony Towns, C
2. Anthony Davis, PF
3. Kevin Durant, SF
4. Russell Westbrook, PG
5. Giannis Antetokounmpo, SF/PF
6. DeMarcus Cousins, C
Please submit a bid with each player (if you want to bid on said player) as well as a priority from 1-3 (in case you would win two players and these would take you over your budget, you would be awarded the higher priority player).
Happy Bidding!!!
Please do! That's awesome. As I said, it's travel and meeting season so my time is more limited and more so inconsistent (i.e. Will be two or three day stretches that just overwhelm and others where I'm chilin and accessible).I have the keys to the WISRuthRoll gmail account (CC @Sammy3469 and @Koya - I assume it's cool that I help with the bid wrangling process?). People can start submitting Day 1 bids. Bid schedule is as follows:
Day 1 Auction: bids due XXX EST on Tues Sept 26
Day 2 Auction: bids due XXX EST Weds Sept 27
Day 3 Auction: bids due XXX EST Thurs Sept 28
Day 4 Auction: bids due XXX EST Fri Sept 29
Day 5 Auction: bids due XXX EST Mon Oct 2
Day 6 Auction: bids due XXX EST Tues Oct 3
Day 7 Auction: bids due XXX EST Weds Oct 4
Day 8 Auction: bids due 6pm EST Thurs Oct 5
Draft Starts at 11am EST on Friday Oct 6

It's an interesting first day - as it could an even more interesting second day.That's fine, though I question any ranking with Cousins in the top 6, but I digress.
:smokescreen:I'm thinking it won't be smart for me to save all my money until Day 8 this year.
@modogg and @Niles Standish are going to co-own.Did we finalize the 24th? Co Owners or one team?
I'll then put it in the OP
sounds like a plan then, let's do it
