Alright I am going to be away from my computer for the holidays and since you f***ers are the only *******s on this board i really give 2 shits about i hope you all have a Great Christmas and New Years guys.

 

Don't want to get too mushy lol

 

I doubt Sammy's going anywhere.

Do we have a date set for the waiver draft?

 

I'm going to be away for a month starting Feb 20th (but I'll e-mail picks so I dont stall the clock too much).

 

If anyone wants to swap MiLB picks for my waiver picks (such as 16th overall) hit me up.

I am on vacation Feb 14th-20th. We should probably make the keeper deadline before that.

 

Normally we don't do the waiver draft until Yahoo opens so people can add their dudes as they go. Also, since we are able to draft unowned prospects that have hit AA, it helps to wait until Yahoo opens because the prospects that they put in their system are kind of random.

 

So I'm not sure yet. Hmmm.

When people are away do they not have access to internet once or twice a day? Seems pretty odd given how easily wifi is accessible

Really depends where they are. Say down south somewhere, wifi isn't always available.

Really depends on the type of traveling you're doing though even when you do have wifi access, you quite simply have better things to do.

Finding 15 minutes per day isn't really that difficult to do but I get it if you're in different areas of the world where it's not as easy to do. Anyway, I digress...seems like it will be difficult to match every single person as everyone travels at different times in feb/march

If I were on vacation, I wouldn't spare even a moment for fantasy baseball, or for anything else besides vacation-y things, for that matter.

 

I would hope everyone else would do the same.

I'm not really concerned about accommodating everyone. Just me, since I'm the commissioner and have to kind of run the thing

I did the BBDL draft from a hotel in Jamaica

 

forgot about the time difference and ended up with Prince Fielder first round

If I'm sitting in a hotel room at the end of the day and there's an opportunity to do fantasy stuff, that's fine but I prefer to plan like I'm going to be off the grid the whole time and for others to not have high expectations about my availability. That's just what works best. On some trips, you find yourself with way more idle time than you expected but sometimes you really don't have any. Going to be a driver for a group of professional photographers on an Iceland trip. Should be a time.

That sounds like a pretty incredible time. Iceland is near the top of my to-see list.

 

Enjoy!

Ultimately depends on the quality of the wifi at the hostel. Most of them are pretty good these days and can support some kind of connection. There will also be wacky draft windows based on time zone difference.

I drafted for the LOD minor league while on vacay in Cali (so LOTS of available wifi). Wouldn't recommend it in any way. I was trying to relax, but kept having to look over f***ing fantasy s***.

 

If we can, accommodate peeps if they are away.

Yeah that's the thing. Even though the league is fun, dealing with drafts is actually a f*** load of work lol Preparing for and following along with a draft is more like a chore

unfortunate part is there seems to be a few people going away and all at different times for extended periods
