No worries. I was beginning to worry I had somehow screwed up your email address.

I think you need to kick out one of Mike in St Louis teams.

Looks like he joined the league twice for some reason.

unless someone is playing a practical joke

Btw, I'm all for eliminating kickers altogether

leatherneck570 : 7/7/2017 6:47 pm : link

They're useless. Just throwing that out there in case others feel the same way.

T-Bone : 7/7/2017 6:49 pm : link

I didn't get one.

Keith

bigbluehoya : 7/7/2017 7:24 pm : link

I just shot you and email.

Ok, just sent an email to yous guys

Keith : 7/7/2017 7:33 pm : link

Mike, why do you have two teams?

I clicked the link in the mail

bigbluehoya : 7/7/2017 7:45 pm : link

And for some reason I also have 2 teams. I didn't think I double clicked the link.

TBone and Jlukes,

Keith : 7/7/2017 7:57 pm : link

let me know if you don't get the invite. lukes, I sent it to your email address that you used in 2011.

muddy mudskippers? Looks like you have one team.

I deleted the other

Keith : 7/7/2017 8:17 pm : link

One

I'm the Mudskippers

Thanks man.

How and when do we decide the draft order in this league?

I've used excel/minitab to randomly select the draft order for new leagues in the past and it worked out well.

I'm not sure why the system keeps signing multiple teams

Keith : 7/8/2017 8:38 am : link

under the same manager. T-Bone, still waiting on you.

I believe Yahoo allows for a random draft order selection.

You can also use fftoolbox

YAJ2112 : 7/8/2017 8:58 am : link

Just put in everyone's email in that and it autogenerates a draft order and emails it to the whole league.

I haven't used yahoo in years

bigbluehoya : 7/8/2017 9:02 am : link

But I thought if you relied on the system to generate a random draft order, it didn't do it until a few minutes prior to the draft.

I can go with the flow, but I always think it's fun to know your draft spot a few weeks ahead to start thinking about how things could play out for you.

Ive used fftoolbox in the past. If Yahoo doesn't do it

Keith : 7/8/2017 9:18 am : link

asap, we will use them. I def want to do the order sooner rather than later. Once we all agree on the rules and stuff, we will do the order.

Cool, should be fun.

bigbluehoya : 7/8/2017 9:27 am : link

I was a little jammed up at work yesterday and didn't read the whole thread, but I thought I saw some mention of putting some friendship points on the line.

I'm down for whatever.

.

arcarsenal : 7/8/2017 12:01 pm : link

You can randomize the order in Yahoo well before the draft - I've done it a bunch of times. You just need all of the teams signed up and the league "finalized" first, and then it will let you do it.

arcarsenal : 7/8/2017 12:02 pm : link

This league is going to make our daily FF threads quite interesting this year..

Yes, or Keith can randomly select somehow and then he can SET the draft order himself.

I'm looking to trade

pjcas18 : 7/8/2017 12:58 pm : link

my draft slot and potentially all my draft picks for the naming rights to someone's team.

message me if interested.

Just joined.

T-Bone : 7/8/2017 2:13 pm : link

Had to create another account.

Bout freakin time!

Keith : 7/8/2017 2:16 pm : link

Ok, we are all signed up. Whats the easiest way to communicate certain things(picking a draft day, rules, friend points)? On bbi, via email or on the yahoo message board?

Either works for me but dep can only comment on the Yahoo message board unless he's reinstated so maybe use that?

I vote for using the Yahoo message board as well

leatherneck570 : 7/8/2017 3:30 pm : link

I'm just not sure how to get to it.

I thought they disabled the yahoo message boards a while ago? Not unless you are talking about posting messages in the league.... that can still happen.

Yeah I'm pretty sure they mean the league message which

leatherneck570 : 7/8/2017 6:17 pm : link

I finally found. We should post everything there for dep. The other option is to start a group chat on FB or something to talk smack and discuss rules and such.

*message board

leatherneck570 : 7/8/2017 6:17 pm : link

.

So is there an existing set of

bigbluehoya : 7/10/2017 8:39 am : link

Scoring/roster settings that is being carried over from the previous iterations of this league, or are those yet to be discussed?

Yeah,

Keith : 7/10/2017 8:41 am : link

I put in the same system(I lowered the points for kickers a little). However, everything is open for discussion.

Couple of thoughts on the settings

YAJ2112 : 7/10/2017 8:57 am : link

Can we make the Playoff Tiebreaker total points and not head to head? Total points is more indicative of who has the better team than who won a random matchup.

I think the missed kick points are way too punitive. Kickers are already annoying enough without having to worry about losing a game because your idiot kicker got liquored up and shanked an XP. Something like -1 for misses under 40/XPs should be more than sufficient.

YAJ

Keith : 7/10/2017 9:19 am : link

The settings are for playoff tie breakers. Not getting to the playoffs(we can't control this), but ties in the playoffs. The 2 options are "Higher seed wins" or "Head to Head".

Regarding kickers, we can certainly discuss that once we get the draft and other small details squared away. Still waiting on a few guys to respond regarding the draft.

ah... in that case

YAJ2112 : 7/10/2017 10:27 am : link

can we make it Higher Seed and not H2H?

Possibly.

Keith : 7/10/2017 10:34 am : link

Personally, I'd rather H2H, but we can vote on that later on. Lets get these other schlubs to confirm the draft first.

I am in whenever for a draft.

jlukes : 7/10/2017 10:37 am : link

.

T-Bone is the only one not to chime in.

Keith : 7/10/2017 5:40 pm : link

So last to sign up, last to confirm the draft. Can we just put this guy in last place already?

.

arcarsenal : 7/10/2017 6:06 pm : link

Methinks T-Bone is treating us like a side chick that he's only interested in when nothing else is going on.

SAD!

LMAO!!!

T-Bone : 7/10/2017 8:17 pm : link

Sorry fellas! Been a pretty busy day today and to be honest, I kind of forgot about this post. My bad.

As far as the draft, I'm good with any date (I believe) but if it's going to be during the week if we could make it any time after 8 (7:30 at the earliest) because I'm usually traveling home between 5:30-7:30ish. But if that doesn't work for any one else I'll be ok and will adjust.

Yeah that falls in line with what's been scheduled. Lots being discussed over on the league message board. Come on over and chime in.

Hey kmed...

T-Bone : 7/10/2017 10:06 pm : link

is it showing me as being in the league? I'm having a hard time accessing it from the Yahoo app (which sucks by the way).

You're in there T-Bone though you haven't renamed your team to T-Bone's army yet. Someone else left, jlukes?

And Mike in STL doesn't want to be in another $$ league.

So I guess we need another team (or jlukes to rejoin) and to figure out if Mike in STL is in and it's free or we get a replacement.

I'm cool with whatever the majority decide decide, but prefer a money league, even if it's just $25.

We aren't playing for money.

Keith : 7/11/2017 9:51 am : link

We will play for friend points. pj, you unfortunately start with negative friend points.

We need 2 new managers now.

We need 2 managers willing to play for 25 friend points

Keith : 7/11/2017 9:52 am : link

and who will be active with the league.

I tend to agree that

bigbluehoya : 7/11/2017 9:52 am : link

Attention and effort are going to be substantially better across the board with even a nominal amount of friendship points at risk.

I won't back out if the group decides otherwise.

There were a few guys on this thread that wanted in,

Keith : 7/11/2017 9:59 am : link

I'll put it up to those guys first....

bigbluedownbytheshort
Stu
AnnapolisMike
BoatieWarrant

We need 2 managers to fill the league.
