South Park Visitors reporting for action.  
(Just spent the weekend camping down in south park and couldn’t think of a better name).

Hmm, being fairly new around here maybe I should lose one game this year,  
… Naaaah.

Okay, so I e-mailed the league info to my familty and friends who I have fantasied with (is that an SAT word?) for several years now.

Then, you Dopers go and go friggin’ NUTS and fill the league up even after I expand it twice!

If anyone else wants to join, keep trying as I am going to start a separate league for my family and friends and let this one be 100% Dopified!

I keep getting that same error:

Errors:

The password is incorrect.  
The league has already drafted. You can not join a league postdraft.  
So I guess it isn’t meant to be. Oh well!

Thanks, Satan! However, 20 teams seems like too many. The talent will be too thin, there is too much to keep track of, teams will not play all the other teams…

Instead, how about we divide into 2 leagues of 10 teams each? I don’t have time to be the second commish, unfortunately.

**Cheese Head** - No can do on the different leagues. I already kicked out people so they could join a second league I made, and not only that but everyone loses their pre-draft picks if they join another league.

As for the talent being diluted, we still at 20 teams have 11 _less_ teams than the actual NFL, and many Fantasy leagues use this many teams.

**Zette** - My brother had the same problems, and I signed him up for him. Please allow me to do this for you. I am on AIM and I will turn my YM, ICQ and MSM on for you to do it for you!

**EVERYBODY!!!** - Three teams left (Two after I help Zette) so hurry up and sign in!
