I think most favor Yahoo, so we'll be running Yahoo for this league. I am not a fan of adding burdens to the commish duties, so we are going to use Yahoo defaults for league setup. Therefore, Ohtani is going to be two players. Adjust fire accordingly.

We may get additional managers from the RIBC major league. So, we aren't ready for choosing our draft order until we know exactly how many managers we are going to have and who they are.

The first orders of business are to set a schedule of events, and to make sure we have everyone on board. You'll find a schedule in the next post. Following that, I'd like you all to sound off with "IN" or "OUT" to let me know that you are still planning to play, and that you plan to pay attention to this thread by visiting it daily through the preseason. Fall asleep during the season is frowned on, but its even more important that you stay engaged through the preseason. Your absence may prohibit us from finishing on time.

I have sent invites to the Yahoo League to everyone but LarryF, whose e-mail address I do not have.

Looks like we got everyone on the list except LarryF to sign up at Yahoo. If anyone knows how to contact Larry, please let him know to use the links above and join Yahoo and Draft Time.

Only four of us are in Draft Time so far. The link to join us there is in post <4> above.

I'm rather overwhelmed until around Mar 8th so I won't be able to join.

If any lurkers are willing to draft but worried about whether they'd commit through the season, I'd be able to tag in as an in-season replacement if necessary.

You will receive an e-mail from draftordergenerator.com shortly. This will be the order we select our draft position in. You may not have gotten it if I mistyped your address, but that should be the only reason. As long as one person other than me got it, this order will stand. You used to be able to type team names in it, but now you will need this key to understand the results. There are 14 teams this year.

Team 1: Bean's Guardians
Team 2: C1-NRB's A.L.L. Army
Team 3: Crack Babies
Team 4: Fred's First Class Team
Team 5: Jason's Fascinating Team
Team 6: JeffG AAA 2024
Team 7: Matthew's Choice Team
Team 8: Philsphan's Peerless Team

In for #7. Sorry. Had a flight outta Philly last night to Monterey with a layover in Frisco. Well because of construction and weather in Frisco, my flight was delayed 3 1/2 hours, missed my connecting flight and had to wait till 4AM for a ride into Monterey. But all good now.

I have started the draft. You can set queues now. You'll note that the player data base has just one Ohtani, the DH. If you want the pitcher, you'll have to add him when it is your turn. Same goes for any other player not in the data base. Can't queue added players.

There is a daily pause midnight to 8 AM ET, in which you can pick, but the clock is paused. There will be no clock until Monday at 8 AM ET. After that there is a 4 hour clock, and I hope to not have to reduce that time throughout the draft. Of course, that depends on how fast we are drafting.

If you are wondering, proper etiquette is to still do your best to keep your pick time to 4 hours or less, even while there is no clock on 3 MAR.

If you see any issues with the draft set up, let me know ASAP.

Thanks Jeff, not sure what happened there.

Fortunately, I got up early and fixed it, thanks to your e-mail I got it in time.

Taxman had two consecutive picks and was just about to time out for his 2nd. We should be good now.

I just checked out the League Settings

Max Games Played: No maximum

Not that I ever come close to hitting the max anyway, but I thought we capped the hitters to 162 innings per position. Last year the setting was

I simply copied the RIBC settings from last year when setting up the league. I think they were fixed about this same time last year too. Perhaps it just copied the original settings, and not the corrected settings.

Anyway, it's fixed. Thanks Jeff

Draft is over, thanks to all for a very efficient execution.

Your teams are loaded in Yahoo, waiver priority is reverse order of draft 1st round.

If you find any mistakes, let me know.
