NorthOf49 Old-Timey Member Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 For the draft, I'm thinking we go ten rounds of auction, and then just do a regular draft with 6 hour intervals. The second half of an auction takes much less time because everyone's spent their money and so it proceeds similarly to a snake draft. I don't think slicing an auction draft in half would be very effective. You're always going to have the time-consuming first half.
BigBounceyBlueBalls Old-Timey Member Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 Does anyone know what's up with fatcowxlive ? He use to post daily, we haven't heard from him since Jan 14th. Not sure but has Spanky gone missing too?
GD Old-Timey Member Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 People keep telling me QS is dumb, but fail to elaborate on why. It's kind of double counting ERA. Check your PMs! Urgent!
King Old-Timey Member Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 Does anyone know what's up with fatcowxlive ? He use to post daily, we haven't heard from him since Jan 14th. He hasn't posted daily since earlier in last season, quit all board leagues too. Seems to me like he's losing interest in baseball.

jays4life19 Old-Timey Member Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 Are you set on Yahoo AG? Personally i would prefer Fantrax.

AdamGreenwood Old-Timey Member Posted February 4, 2015 Author Posted February 4, 2015 Yeah, we did an auction on Yahoo last year, and it ran pretty smoothly. I don't know about FanTrax. Not that familiar with it, so I'd rather just stick with Yahoo as I like the interface a lot better. I'm open to it though if you have some reasons. As far as I can tell, the advantages of FanTrax are: 1) Has more obscure minor league players that won't affect a redraft league. 2) Has more funky statistics which apparently none of you want anyway. 3) Has payment collection and tracking (I do like this, but it means we would all have to pay an extra $3.) I'll ask JFaS which is better from an administration point of view.
King Old-Timey Member Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 He's going to University. Probably just can't find the time. Thought this at first but changed my mind when he started spamming my twitter feed 24/7 with rap music/soccer/other random annoying s***
jays_fever Old-Timey Member Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 He's going to University. Probably just can't find the time. The majority of my friends and I all completed our undergrads while working 25+ hours a week and a full school schedule. You make time for the things you enjoy in life. He probably just doesn't care
canadiansportsjunkie Verified Member Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 Prefer yahoo auction here

So, with 20 players, I'm going to go ahead and set up the league and send out messages to the 20 interested players. I'll give it three days for people to join the league, before we try to recruit other members to fill empty spots. Payments won't be made until we have twenty people all confirmed into Yahoo. We'
NorthOf49 Old-Timey Member Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 How many divisions and playoff teams? In a redraft paid league I prefer fewer divisions (1 or 2).
AdamGreenwood Old-Timey Member Posted February 5, 2015 Author Posted February 5, 2015 Playoffs is just going to be the Top 8 teams. Ok, I guess people need to send me their emails, so that I can send them invites to the league.

Has Metsguy been back yet?
AdamGreenwood Old-Timey Member Posted February 5, 2015 Author Posted February 5, 2015 I've sent PM's out to all of the non-regulars. We'll give it 72 hours to get everyone signed up, before we offer those spots out. Don't worry BBBB, 99.9% sure you'll get in. Once we have 20 signed up, we can tweak the rules etc, a little, and then see if we can find a date that works for everybody.

jays4life19 Old-Timey Member Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 This is my first yahoo league. Does anyone know how it works when you have two co managers? Do we each get our own log in for the same team? Or?
jays4life19 Old-Timey Member Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 Ya separate logins. I hope you reconsider about joining the league. There's a lot of people on the current list who probably won't end up joining.
BigBounceyBlueBalls Old-Timey Member Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 I am kinda knee deep and wrapped up along with Dylan we are working on the New Epic HR Contest for the Board! Wanna know more! Check out the HR message thread! Come with me now!!! Check out it out! Lol
AdamGreenwood Old-Timey Member Posted February 5, 2015 Author Posted February 5, 2015 Alright, we have nine signed up so far. Hopefully, others check in soon. We'll open it up again on Friday night.
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 Alright, we have nine signed up so far. Hopefully, others check in soon. We'll open it up again on Friday night. Thanks for leading this, AG. Quite excited, will be my first auction and I really want at least one redraft per year.
jays_fever Old-Timey Member Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 Did you send out the invites? I never received one
Chappy Community Moderator Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 Just out of curiosity, the current draft date/time, is that the tentative date because I head out of town that morning.
GD Old-Timey Member Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 Pretty sure that's a placeholder. A little earlier during March Break would be fantastic though.
AdamGreenwood Old-Timey Member Posted February 5, 2015 Author Posted February 5, 2015 Did you send out the invites? I never received one Sorry man, got you mixed up with another guy. I'll shoot you one.
AdamGreenwood Old-Timey Member Posted February 5, 2015 Author Posted February 5, 2015 Just out of curiosity, the current draft date/time, is that the tentative date because I head out of town that morning. Yahoo forces you to pick a date when you're setting up the league. I'll send out a survey once we have our tentative 20 signed up.
jays4life19 Old-Timey Member Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 So it looks like we have 10. Who still needs to sign up AG?
TBJ12 Verified Member Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 I have another player. Much like myself he's easy money. Let me know if there's a spot available.
