[Last year’s thread](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=832384) Going into our 12th year. We usually draft for this league on the Thursday after the third preseason game, which would put us at August 30. Probably 8 eastern/5 pacific. But that’s during the 4th preseason games, which some of you probably watch, so I’ll suggest Wednesday the 29th. If there’s a problem with that, speak up now. No rule changes for this year yet, feel free to propose one if you’ve got an idea. Everyone is invited to return this year and no one has yet decided not to play this year, but if you’re not going to, please inform us now. Historical records: 2006: 1.

Don’t want to put you in a lurch, but I think I’d like to withdraw. Felt a bit repetitive with my other leagues rules-wise and a bit too little interaction among owners for my tastes. If you really have trouble finding a replacement, I’d still participate to avoid needing to constrict teams. ---

Is anyone here interested in playing in the SDMB’s oldest league, the [He Hate Me](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=859031) keeper league? We’ve got 2 slots open there. Or in the [big league](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=859030), where we’ve got at least one slot? ---

Alright guys, we lost magnusblitz and Overly Sentimental this year. As their replacements, we have Hi, Neighbor! and Sir T-Cups. I’m setting the draft to Wednesday, Aug 29 at 8:30 eastern, as mentioned in the OP. Welcome aboard. ---

Welcome guys (are you both guys? if not, then I’m using the gender neutral version of guys). **SenorBeef** - you mentioned in the recruitment thread that we’re looking for two more but we’re all full up, right? ---

There are scheduling conflicts with the draft I’m waiting to hear back about before I propose any changes so potentially everyone could attend, otherwise someone may have to back out. I also forgot that d\_odds told us last year that he wouldn’t be joining us this year, so I was expecting him to take his place in the league and instead I’ll need a replacement. ---

Alright, here’s where we’re at. Sir T-Cups and Hi, Neighbor signed up but didn’t notice the draft date/time in the OP. T-cups says he’s busy that Wednesday, but free that Tuesday/Thursday. I tried to contact Hi, Neighbor to see if one of those would work, but he hasn’t responded to me. I was trying to find a draft date/time that worked for everyone, and I wasn’t going to propose changes until they both got back to me, but since I still haven’t heard from Hi, Neighbor I guess we’ll just have to go ahead. If we changed the draft to Tuesday or Thursday, Aug 28 or 30th, would everyone be able to make it? If not, then we’ll just stay with Wednesday (because in that case we’re just trading one person for another), but ideally we can shift it a day and retain Sir T-Cups. And perhaps Hello, Neighbor can make it too whenever he gets back to me. Otherwise we’ll have to fill one more slot, and fantasy interest has been way down this year so if anyone wants to get a friend in on the league that’d be fine. ---

Tuesday is good, but Thursday becomes more iffy and probably couldn’t make it. ---
