So who’s in this so far? I count: **Gray Ghost** , **MTRG** , **Oakminster** , **mhendo** , **Darth Sensitive** , **Uncle Brother Walker** , **Wilson**. For a total of 7. Not sure if these guys are playing: **Omniscient** , **Ellis Dee** , **Munch**. With them, that makes ten. 10’s enough for me. Just need sign-up info. ---

No, I’m already in four other SDMB leagues, and I would bet that **Omni** and **Munch** are as well. I’m only here to offer help on the logistics. ---

Nope, I’m not interested. Too many leagues for me at this point. ---

> [@Gray\_Ghost](#): > > I am a bit confused. Is this league only for people not also playing in **SenorBeef** ’s “Big Auction League?” Because I’m in the big auction league, but have no problem with also playing in this league, if that’s O.K. with the rest of you. Nah, go nuts if you want to join both leagues. I just opened the registration to everyone after giving last year’s players a chance to join. There’s no bad blood or anything, and I play in a bunch of SDMB leagues myself. A few people either didn’t want to draft on the big league’s draft date (sep 7) or didn’t want to do the auction format. If this league doesn’t quite fill upyou could always do a regular 10/12/14 team league, although you might want to ask people if they’d be interested in that, since they might already have normal leagues of that size and only want in for the novelty value. ---

Has any decision been made yet? Because it looks like any draft would have to be either on the weekend or Wednesday. ---

You’d need to set a draft date soon - yahoo has a certain amount of drafts available per timeslot since they have a limited amount of servers, and once those are reserved the timeslot dissapears as an option. As it is, all of the prime slots are gone, and the longer you wait the more will go. If this doesn’t end up come to fruition, and anyone wants to get in on the other big league, we’re 1 (possibly two) teams short. Info is league 14354, password cecil, draft on Tuesday at 9:15ET. Again, not trying to poach, and by all means do both leagues - just wanted to mention that in case this one fizzles out.
