bob
08-23-2007, 06:09 AM
if i set it up, how should i do it ?

automated draft or live ?

any other segestions ?

Damocles
08-23-2007, 06:43 AM
It should be automated, it is difficult to get us all together for a live draft.

bob

sounds good ill set it up now

I like the idea of a live draft, but I guess could deal with automated.... :(

We had a live draft last year...

Damocles
08-23-2007, 07:02 AM
Set it up just before the Regular Season start. It becomes more competitive if people don't pick up players who they later lose to injury before the season starts.

Yeah, but several didn't make it and wound up with subpar teams, they lost interest before the season was over.

Just pick something appropriate then PM it to each person who says they'll play.

bob

Cool. They have supposedly upgraded their systems and should have a better time this year.

Well, I know from personal experience that Yahoo is worse and the nfl.com thing uses the cbs thing so it is worthless to compare those two....

Others cost, so we'll keep it there. Most of the problems with nfl.com were on the live draft and compatability issues as well as the server freezing during people's choices. That and the people who weren't there, well it took FOREVER for the machine to make their picks and then they were suxor picks. The players lost interest because of their crappy teams and the league wasn't as competitive. This way we all start on equal footing.

bob
08-23-2007, 07:21 AM

any sugestion to get the word out ?

Not really. We'll just have to keep this thread bumped. Sticky doesn't work all that well to keep them in people's minds.

alright, i will try to keep an eye on it

Damocles

You can also PM anybody who was in last year. I don't think some of them are around though.

Yeah, maybe we should have done a 10 team league, I remember that last year it was a problem finding the last two people.

That was problematic last year.... Hmm... we still have time to change it all. If people believe that a live draft will be actually populated with the people and that Java won't hurt them.

ya i dont know, live is hard for me, it just tends to take a long time for it, and i will be pretty busy for the next few weeks as well. but thats ok

if you want to do live i dont have a problem with it, i just might not be able to be there for it.

like damo said we got some time, lets see what the others that will join say.

on a side note, if you know someone look for a league outside of JPP invite em if you choose

i have no idea ?

personly it just makes watching the game much more fun.

Blackflag
08-24-2007, 02:18 PM
I'll play. Just saw this thread. The Insurgents are going to own your faces. Someone PM me the info.

Timshel
08-24-2007, 03:02 PM
That's why I like it. It makes me interested in other games more. Without fantasy football I will watch the Bucs and the rest of the league does not interest me much (if they have an ex Buc great, Broncos and Raiders, or a former Bucs coach as head coach, half the league, I might follow them casually).

A lot of people don't like fantasy football because it does not really capture the key things about football very well, e.g. line play. It tends to emphasize some negative aspects. And it draws in a lot of girly men types (or ib1s) that really don't know crap about football.

Hey Damo!

Immie
It's because there are no conservatives in government. It is more than just annoying, it plain stinks. The ones we voted in all went insane and started to follow Bush without any stop-loss planned.

Immanuel
08-24-2007, 07:38 PM
Well, if conservative is what those in Washington today are then I want no part of it. Then again, I don't want to be a part of liberalism either.

Immie
That's my point. It is what makes you depressed. We spent all that energy attempting to elect people who would work for smaller government, against nation-building wars, would work to solve the border problems, wouldn't grow the debt...

Instead we got quite the opposite with a religious lean.

Immanuel
08-26-2007, 05:34 AM
Yeah, I hear ya, Damo.

Bob or someone send me the password to the league. The Tiger Sharks wants to go on a feeding frenzy again.

Yahoo is rather limited. We might have to change over though anyway, the league is set up for 12 and we only have 8 currently. Yahoo you can make the league any size.

I don't think they allow you to select a different number 1.

I don't think we should do that. We can set up an 8 person league, or 10 person. Let's get people to sign up first, then create the league.

The problem was we started a bit late. I should have been more on top of it. I have already done two drafts for two other leagues that I am in...

its not that big of deal, i will move it a week out, and if we get enough people singed up we can change it again. sound good ?

dave can sign up because his work blocks fox sports or msn or somthing.

i don't know what is meant by the comment of not selecting another no.1. neither of those guys are on the list, anywhere.

The choice for No.1 cannot be changed, as far as I can tell, therefore you cannot move LT from the no.1 spot.

i don't know how else to say this.....so....

LT IS NOT ON THE LIST. ANYWHERE!!! I CAN NOT SET UP THE DRAFT LIST BECAUSE LT IS NOT ON THE LIST. ANYWHERE.???????????

i'm sure he is the no.1 player, as the list STARTS with no.2:stephen jackson. and it makes no sense at all that you would HAVE to have LT no.1 on your own player list.

can i say this again???

LT is not on the list. at least he's not showing up on mine. so i CAN NOT have him as no.1 on my list because he IS NOT on the master list.

He is choice number 1, the one you cannot access or see when you are updating the list. You cannot move or change LT's number 1 status.

Damocles
09-04-2007, 11:56 AM
It appears that the list goes off the average draft order, therefore LJ is number 3, another one that it won't let you change.

I wonder if we should live draft so we can select the players that we want rather than be forced to take LJ as you can't even move him off the list if you don't want him.

Well that's dumb, last year I made out cause the four imbeciles before me didn't pick LT. One dumbass even picked a Defense for their first round. lol

I will try and log on tonight if I have time and set up my account. If not, count me out this year because I can't access it from work. :(
