Oak's NFL Fantasy League 2014

The Game Room
1

Thanks to Uncle Brother Walker of the Unrelated Siblings for reminding me.

I’ve renewed the league and sent invites to everyone that played last year. I’ll hold spots for everyone for at least a week, maybe longer, but have to leave enough time to recruit as needed. Please post here when you’ve signed up, or if you’ve decided not to play again so we can start recruiting.

The draft is currently set for September 3, 2014 @ 7:00 PM Central, but that can changed if needed.

Settings are the same as they were last year, but may need some tweaking to accommodate new features in the Yahoo system. I haven’t looked at it in any detail yet, so if you see something, post about here and we’ll decide what to do.

I have a history of not making the playoffs in my own league. Hoping to change that this year…

In, as always. (Chicago Bears). Is the draft date and time indicated in “Scoring and Settings” (Wed Sep 3 7:00pm CDT) set?

3

Yes, the draft date is set. It should give you a countdown-timer thingy that shows how long until the draft.

4

Ok, not sure I’ll be able to make it (I’m on a fixed schedule). But I’ll be sure to do rankings so that Yahoo will (hopefully) draft as I generally would. Excited about season 4.

5

The draft date can be changed if needed. I thought you meant had I plugged a date into the system.

6

5 teams are back so far. I sent reminders to Flying Megashark, Lorem Ipsums, Unrelated Siblings, XIII Shadows, and Miscreant Monkeys.

I guess I’ll hold spots for them until Wednesday, which I think is one week prior to the draft, before I start looking for subs.

7

Just a heads up, I’m not sure if we share any members, but the big league has been set to draft on sep 3 at 8:30 eastern for about a month now. (I made a mistake in the OP of that thread by calling it a Tuesday, but it’s always been Sep 3).

8

I don’t think we share any members at the moment, but if we do after this league fills up, we’ll work something out.

9

I was XIII Shadows, you give my spot to someone else. I don’t have the Yahoo account anymore. If you can’t find enough people for the league I’ll play.

10

I am on the fence as to my being able to play again. I’ll know by Wednesday or so. I’m Flying Megashark.

11

Is there a cost to this league and do winners get paid?

12

Nope, no money involved.

13

If you need another player I’m in (though I’m in the Big League already so I can only do it if the draft is moved.)

14

I would need the draft date changed to another day as well

15

I won’t be making it back this year. Two leagues is enough for me.

16

We still have 5 openings…and several people have indicated the draft date needs to be moved. The floor is officially open for discussion of what draft time/date works best for everybody.

If you want one of the open spots, please PM me an email address to send your invitation.

17

I’m in if we can find a suitable draft date. I could do much earlier on the 3rd.

18

Pardon my lapse…

If the draft stays set, I’m on the fence. We’re hitting my busy season at work and would rather pick live than set autodraft. And I think I’m hitting my annual limit of 2.5 leagues. So I’m open, but iffy.

ETA: Oh, and I don’t get home until about 730 pm CST, so maybe I’m doomed to autodraft. ::sigh::

19

I was hoping for a Sunday or Monday draft. That would probably be the best configuration for the greatest amount of people.

20

I have to bow out this year. I have too much on my plate and wouldn’t be able to run my team in any meaningful way. I want back in next year though. I’ll bring a friend if I have to.
