Deanfjr Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 (edited) *****First off, anyone reading this post that is not in our League, space is still available post if interested***** I will try to help organize a draft day that works for everyone, we can decide the actual date & time after we establish a day. Everyone please reply and I will collect all the data here, please convert your working hours into eastern time zone so this is somewhat easy & organized. If I need to make any corrections, please let me know, so far this is what I have gathered: @Deanfjr: available Mon & Fri --- note: works 3pm-11pm (est) @wsuskee: available Mon --- note: works 8pm-3am (est) @Sfcommando14: available Sat & Sun or weekday evenings --- note: works 8:30pm-5:30pm (est) @stoltzjl77: prefers weekend evening, but will adjust to group (thank you for being flexible) Edited February 22, 2016 by Deanfjr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stoltzjl77 Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 If it has to be a weeknight, I can make Monday work. Regarding format - I'm not interested in roto so if we switch to that I'm probably out. I don't have time to learn a new strategy. I've played both H2H - weekly and H2H/categories - weekly and am fine with either. I do like ESPN's 14-day playoffs as it eliminates some of the randomness a 1-week sample dictates.

Huskers1236 Posted February 22, 2016 Author Share Posted February 22, 2016 (edited) We won't change the format, that will stay the same. I'll look into the playoffs. @Miavia7 I'll shoot you an invite. You will make the 13th that has shown interest, another pm'd me but I'm waiting on email address. 14 is our cap.

Huskers1236 Posted February 22, 2016 Author Share Posted February 22, 2016 As far as schedules, Monday night may work best for me, but that's only because I'm waiting to see a finalized schedule for my son's baseball team. I'm not sure if they are still playing locally in late March or already traveling to tournaments but it may make a weekend difficult for me. Normally Sunday night is just fine. I'll know more soon, but generally I'm good with weeknights as well. I'm really flexible when it comes to these things as I'm my own boss for the most part.

Huskers1236 Posted February 22, 2016 Author Share Posted February 22, 2016 The only way to make a playoff matchup more than 1 week is to have only 4 teams in playoffs. Since it looks like we will end up with a full field of 14, I don't like the idea of only 4 making playoffs, but we can take a vote on it.

Huskers1236 Posted February 27, 2016 Author Share Posted February 27, 2016 @Veegs still need you to register your team. Did my email invite go through? I have 5 teams(myself included) that have paid. Check your pm's for my email address for paypal. If other teams want in, we have room for 2 spots. We can go as is as we are at 12. If I don't get any bites in a couple weeks I'll reduce the league down to 12 so I don't forget as it won't let us draft if not full. I checked my schedule and I'm good for the Sunday listed. If we need to bump up to Monday it should work as well. If you can't make the draft, you can set up your favorites and it will draft for you, but won't work as well as drafting yourself, obviously. I think we had 1 guy need to do this last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We seem to be split right now between Sunday and Monday. I am wondering if it would be better to do a day-time draft rather than a night-time draft? as of now we have 3 night shift workers, how does that tentatively sound? Possibly Sunday morning? would that work for everyone? Looking for thoughts, opinions, & input. This is our league it will be what we make it c'mon guys chime in!

stoltzjl77 Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 If by Sunday morning, you mean starting at 5AM Eastern (and ending by ~8AM) then yes I can do Sunday morning. If by Sunday morning, you mean those of us (or just me if I'm the only one) who think church is important would have to skip it - um, no. I can do Saturday mornings. I can do all kinds of crazy hours. But I won't skip work or church for a fantasy baseball draft, and I'm not risking $75 on the whims of the autodraft. That may mean I can't be in this league and that's fine, let's just figure it out soon so if I have to drop out you guys can find someone to take my place. I don't want to be the problem child.

Huskers1236 Posted February 29, 2016 Author Share Posted February 29, 2016 Sunday morning won't work for me either, though I could always go on Saturday evening, which we do on occasion. Easter would be that Sunday as well, so that's really not going to work as I'll probably be out of town. Let's talk about a Saturday, that may work best.

meowsmeowsmeows Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 I'll get my payment in this week. Also, I would vote for 6/14 teams make the playoffs if we end up with 14 teams. My schedule is pretty flexible and can do a draft just about any day or time at this point. Though, I forgot that Sunday the 27th was Easter, so scheduling a draft on that day might be difficult.

Deanfjr Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 agree we shouldn't draft on Easter... first & foremost we need to get a good day & time to make everyone happy.. how about a Friday night? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll add you to the pm thread for paypal. We won't draft Easter. If it had to be a Sunday I'd change weeks. About any evening/weekend works for me as my son's baseball doesn't begin until April 1, so I'm good there.

wsuskee Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 I work from 8 pm to 3 am eastern time on Fridays. Saturdays in March I pretty much work all day due to basketball and working in a sportsbar. Anytime Sunday or Monday I could make work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
