Laika Community Moderator Posted February 1, 2015 Author Posted February 1, 2015 I'm not seeing an option to make the finals 2 weeks. We can have a 21 week season instead of 22 weeks though, so our finals week is the 24th week (Sept 21-27) instead of the 25th (Sept 28-Oct 4)
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 How about same day add/drops this year? Not a fan.
TheHurl Site Manager Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 Coming close to a deal for Carpenter. Looking for young pitching as a starting point. I'll give you 24 hours if you want in.

I'll give you 24 hours if you want in. Could you post the final deal here when it happens? I've had some strong interest in Carpenter in the BBDL, and I'm curious what he goes for.
KingKat Old-Timey Member Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 Not a fan. It's kind of a mixed blessing. It forces you to do all your adds in the morning or the player gets locked. At least the other way, you can make your moves whenever you want which is better for people's schedules. It the system allowed you to make next day adds once the player was locked, it would be the best of both worlds.

On Yahoo I prefer next-day adds.

That's when injuries occur, so that's when a lot of adds become actionable. Waiting until the next day to make a hot add is seriously frustrating if you by rights should have been first on the scene. I wouldn't own Gattis if we had same day adds.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 Plus, I think it encourages last minute streaming, which is also annoying.

I've had some strong interest in Carpenter in the BBDL, and I'm curious what he goes for. I traded him straight up for Howie Kendrick in FC. Losing 2B eligibility hurts Carp's value but he's still a solid 3B in OBP leagues.

Really dumn.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 I read somewhere that yahoo doesn't have that option. Really dumn. Weird. Well, I guess we should at least move the playoffs forward a week then.
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 Guys. Is it really 19 days til pitchers report?

The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 I think we should give him the boot and do a dispersal draft with his players.
TheHurl Site Manager Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 I think we should give him the boot and do a dispersal draft with his players. ...and chop off his testicles.
Laika Community Moderator Posted February 2, 2015 Author Posted February 2, 2015 Silvergun has been booted from the league for tardiness, and he will be replaced by an algorithm written by JFaS which is called: Computerization Hellbent On Darrell Extermination. CHODE Not the best name/acronym choice, IMO.
z3r0s Old-Timey Member Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 where has that mo-fo been anyway? Well-timed GIFs are way down and its frankly unacceptable
Laika Community Moderator Posted February 2, 2015 Author Posted February 2, 2015 where has that mo-fo been anyway? Well-timed GIFs are way down and its frankly unacceptable The impression I've been getting from him for the last few months is that he just doesn't really like interacting with most of the people on this message board anymore, including a chunk of LoD people. Can't really blame him.
KingKat Old-Timey Member Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 Nobody likes anyone anymore.

Can't really blame him. I don't blame him either. TBH the only reason i come on here is for the Off Topic Forum for Fantasy.... Rarely will i venture over to the other side.
Sammy225 Old-Timey Member Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 The Other Side is at least better now then it was near the end of the season. Still some questionable personalities over there but your right it is a little better. When the season starts thats when a bunch of people come out of the woodworks.
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 ...and chop off his testicles. Gotta be done.
Laika Community Moderator Posted February 3, 2015 Author Posted February 3, 2015 Re-Announcement: I've set the league up as a keeper league this year. Select whichever of your 20 keepers are on your Yahoo imported end-of-year roster from 2014. Doesn't matter if it's 2 or 20 - we will manually add the remaining after the keeper deadline (if this doesn't work for whatever reason, we will just manually add all rosters). Feb 15th at midnight is keeper deadline. You should have your 20 selected in Yahoo and posted here or on ProBoards before then. Rule 4 draft starts on the 22nd. We'll still do 12 hour windows I think. You can post your cuts now if you want.
Laika Community Moderator Posted February 3, 2015 Author Posted February 3, 2015 For the BBDL it didn't take too long at all to drop all players no longer on the team and then add new acquisitions. Teams just make their cuts on Yahoo by the deadline and then there is no work for the commishes then. I just don't have the time to do that right now. Too busy with s*** like this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Popov_v._Hayashi
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted February 3, 2015 Posted February 3, 2015 I just don't have the time to do that right now. Too busy with s*** like this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Popov_v._Hayashi I can do it, if it helps idk

Too busy with s*** like this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Popov_v._Hayashi It only took JFaS and I about an hour (ignoring the sarcasm), and there were 4 teams with almost no one on their rosters plus Orgfiller and Spittin, who are nuts.
TheHurl Site Manager Posted February 3, 2015 Posted February 3, 2015 I can do it, if it helps idk No offense Boxy, I don't think he wants you touching his legal work.
