If everyone can PM me their email addresses, I'll added to the site and send an invitation that way. I wanted to avoid this, but I guess I'm stuck.

What's the latest on draft possibilities?

 

[Juxtatarot]

We also have to decide on money. From the posts earlier, it looks like we could do at least $20.

 

[ChiefD]

How about this Sunday evening, the 30th, at around 7:00 or so CST?

Most of us, I think, don't run on Sunday nights. Wouldn't interfere with weekday runs. I know for me I run usually in the evenings during the week. And kids soccer practices start up for me next week also.

 

[FUBAR]

in a perfect world, we'd do this 9 pm central as my kids will be in bed and I wouldn't feel guilty ignoring them.

but realistically, 7 will work and with 16 teams drafting, there will be time between picks.

ETA: Monday, Tuesday and Friday nights won't work. Sunday would be fine.

 

[Ned]

8/30 Sunday 8pm EDT and $20 works for me.

Please respond if this does not work for anyone.

The money is fine. We might have dinner plans on Sunday night, but with a 16-team league, there should be enough time between picks that I don't anticipate having a problem sneaking a look at my phone every now and then.

 

[ChiefD]

$20 works for me and that date, obviously. I need to reload paypal, so it will be a few days before I can send money.

 

[Sand]

Sunday is fine. Money is fine.

With the stock market the way it is anyone have an issue with me paying in CVX stock?

20 shares?

what account do we donate the money to?

100% to the Super Bowl winner?

 

[ThreeThousand]

Sunday is fine, money is fine. Can we split the difference between the suggested time and FUBAR's time and go with 8pm CST? If not I can make it work, but will be tough as I'll be in the process of getting kids to bed.

8 works fine for me.

 

[Nigel]

How long do we suppose the draft will take? Sunday is good for me but any later than an 8 EST start will likely have us east coasters drafting until midnight.

 

[Ned]

I can hold the money, but fine if we have a separate treasurer. Does tri-man actually have Paypal or will we need to snail mail checks to him?

I was thinking paying out top 3 since we'll have $320 in the pot, but I'm cool with winner take all too!

1st = $200

2nd = $80

3rd = $40

IIRC, we flew through it last year. 2mins/pick.

 

[AAABatteries]

I'm good with both the time and money.

 

[SteelCurtain]

I'll make Sunday work. Will this be something I can do on my phone while driving/riding? I'll be coming back from a trip to the Hamptons.

Finally....I'll have to snail mail a check wherever. I don't have paypal. #OldSchool

 

[tri-man 47]

Fine with the time and the money (and the top three awards). I think my rarely used PayPal needs to be updated ...I'm fine with someone else handling that. I'll check my account, though.

1st = $200

2nd = $80

3rd = $40

agreed with most, but how about something for the team with most total points?

1st = $150

2nd = $100

Total points = $70

I haven't heard any real arguments against the Sunday @ 8PM EDT or the $20 buyin..... So that's that.

I went to set up the draft date/time and it looks like the closest slot is 8:15PM EDT. So that's what we got! The site will randomly set the draft order at 7:15PM.

I'll email everyone with the Paypal/snail mail details.

 

[ChiefD]

Thanks Ned for doing all the hard work.

Can we determine a draft order earlier? It would be nice to think about a strategy based on draft position.

That's all they offer on the site, other than me setting it.

Given the logistics of everyone doing some sort of random dice roll or something and the fact we're drafting in 5 days, I don't think it's quite feasible.

Unless you guys trust me to do it randomly

One person lists team names in a random order.

Another person lists draft position 1 through 16 in a random order.

Both people PM their lists to a 3rd person.

The 3rd person posts both lists and we match up.

I like that idea!

Juxt send me the names. FUBAR the numbers.

[ThreeThousand]

I'll be there (have already joined the league, so you shouldn't have a problem with the draft software) but will be putting my kids to bed at 8:15. I'll predraft my first 3-4 picks or so.

Yeah, I wasn't even planning on playing this year. This would have been the first year since Marty Schottenheimer coached the Chiefs I wasn't going to play FF.

Thanks guys.

Fantasy Football Today. Some great cheat sheets, projections, and detailed articles.

I see I'm smack-middle of the pack again. I'll have to try a new strategy, though.
