Subject: RIBC 2019: getting started
Posted by: Guru
- [330592710] Fri, Jan 25, 2019, 14:43
Welcome to the 16 managers in the 2019 RIBC:
Returning from last year's RIBC: Guru BMD Matt G jdrenbarger Meatwads Slizz Smith and 9th
Promoted from AAA: mailedfoot Species mjd youngroman Tilt23 Dave R RJ Loki
Promoted from AA: ywk
This list includes the top 6 finishers from last year's RIBC (excluding me), the top 4 from each AAA league, the winner of the AA league, and me.
I will be on an extended vacation for the first three weeks of February, so not much will be happening for awhile. But that's why I am getting an early jump on organization.
My expectation is to continue using ESPN as the hosting site. I know that the recent site redesign has not gone well for Hoops, but I'm hopeful that some of the shortcomings have been worked out for baseball. This is not necessarily a closed issue, however.
I will send out ESPN registration info to all managers soon so that you all have a chance to poke around. |

Best of luck to all! Somehow I don't think I will recreate my stunning first 5 picks of last year:

Everyone has now signed in at ESPN.
Four teams still need to register at Draftime. I haven't figured out which ones are missing, but I assume you know who you are.
I plan to start the draft position selection process tomorrow. The draft itself should start sometime around March 10-11.

I will shortly generate the random order for selecting draft position. The process will start with an alphabetized list of managers (as named in the opening post), lining that list up with a set of random numbers 1-16. The list will then be sorted in ascending order.
For audit purposes, the random numbers will be automatically emailed to Youngroman and Species.
Stand by...

I sent him an email yesterday at about 12:30pm. I just sent another, and said that if he doesn't pick by 1pm ET today, we will skip his pick and move on.

Go ahead, Loki. Jdrenbarger can make up his pick whenever he appears.
He's also the only manager that has not yet registered at draftime.com, so his absence is of some concern, although he is registered at ESPN.

First one to speak up (between RJ or jdrenbarger) gets to choose 13 or 14.
Still hoping to get the draft started on Sunday. Still hoping that jdrenbarger shows up. But if he is still MIA on Saturday, I may have to remove him. I'm currently in the process of lining up a contingency plan. Hopefully, I won't need it.

Hopefully, jdrenbarger will appear by Saturday afternoon.
If not, I now have a replacement plan in place.
So regardless, I expect to activate our draft sometime on Sunday, March 10. The first round will be untimed to ensure that everyone is engaged. After that, we'll apply our traditional timing standards (which I'll post when the draft thread is opened).

PIEDMONT James Douglas Renbarger went to be with the Lord in the early afternoon February 2, 2019. He was born in El Reno, OK June 24, 1958. His parents were Robert "Bob" Renbarger and Eleanor (Hall) Renbarger. He was a student in El Reno Schools graduating from EHS in 1976. During these years he played League Baseball and Football. He was also an active 4-H Club member, winning a number of honors. In high school he gained an interest in debate, and participated actively in it until he graduated. He continued his education at West Point in 1976, where he graduated as a Star Man, a designation for the top 5% of the class and continued his love of debate by becoming President of the debate team. Those who knew him best appreciated his willingness to always help others, earning him company F-2's Fat Man Award by his peers as a true friend and someone who took cadet life "just seriously" enough. He graduated from the Academy in 1980 as an Army Second Lieutenant. He selected Air Defense Artillery and served in many units Army-wide during his service. Appointments included working at the TRADOC Analysis Center at Ft. Leavenworth, KS, as well as his last appointment at the Joint Theater Air and Missile Defense at the Pentagon. His impressive military career resulted in him retiring in 2000 as a Lieutenant Colonel. His medals included Defense Superior Service Medal, Joint Service Commendation Medal, 5 Meritorious Service Medals, and an Army Commendation Medal. While stationed at the Schofield Barracks in 1982, he met Tamie Murdock, who would later become Tamie Renbarger in 1984. They traveled together to a number of locations including a brief period in Princeton, NJ where he continued his education, receiving a Master's in Public Administration from Princeton University. They then moved to West Point, NY where he became a debate coach and taught in the Department of Social Sciences for three years, and the Department of Economic Engineering for a fourth year. He and Tamie had two children, who moved with them to multiple locations until they settled in Piedmont, OK after his retirement from the military in 2000. He continued working, and became a partner in My Consulting Group. His wife will remember him as a devoted and caring husband who will be forever missed. His children describe him as a loving father who will be remembered for his dedication to them in every aspect of their life. Doug was preceded in death by his father, Bob Renbarger. He is survived by his wife Tamie (Murdock) Renbarger of 34 years, his son Matthew Renbarger, his daughter Taylor Renbarger, his mother Eleanor (Hall) Renbarger, his brother Steve and wife Lindy Renbarger, and several aunts, uncles, cousins, nephews, nieces and many friends. Doug's love for country music, Sooner football and his family will always be remembered. The service will be at Wesley United Methodist Church, El Reno, on February 11, 2019, at 10:30 a.m. with burial to follow at Pleasant Valley Cemetery in Oklahoma City under the direction of Huber-Benson Funeral Home, El Reno. Instead of flowers, the family suggests memorials to the West Point Association of Graduates (AOG) which can be accessed at westpointaog.org - select the "giving" tab or the Wesley United Methodist Church.

Mr Renbargar's last post here was from when he signed up on January 23: " I quit playing money and all other leagues several years ago, but continue to stick with this one as there's simply no better competition to be found." R.I.P.
