It looks like those who are "chiming in" are in agreement for a draft
to draft picking order.

So unless I hear otherwise by 9 pm tonight (EDT TUESDAY AUG 7),
we'll start picking draft positions.

If you DISAGREE, the time is NOW to chime in!

Thanks.

Thanks Bonka

Last time for "chimers" is 9 pm EDT tonight (to give PDT+ time
to get home and see the threads for today).

If there are no major objections, then #1 will be "on the
clock" (untimed) to choose a draft slot.

I will keep checking in and email you when you are next on the
list.

Use this thread to make your choices so everyone can see what's
happening.

I am away from the computer for a few hours -- will check back
in ~ 6 pm EDT.

Just curious...

Dumb question but:

Does ET + 7 mean you are ahead of ET (Europe) or behind ET
(Hawaii)?

I sent Team 13 (pops, I think) an email and will do the same for
Team 8 (matt/psychos, I think) when it is his turn.

I am checking every 10 min tonight -- until the Phillies game is
over or 11:30 whichever is later...

Toral -- thanks for the boost -- I am having fun, but cannot wait
to draft a player instead of a position!

OK time for bed. (Phils won 11-1. Moyer was awesome. Ryan
hit two.)

You guys are on your own to keep going on the draft order
choices. I will be away from a computer until the afternoon EDT.

Here are some suggestions if you are on the wait list.

1) If you want the next highest pick, no matter what it is, post
that wish and trust that a guy behind you will do it for you.
2) If you want something special, like 10 or later highest to
lowest, post that and trust.
3) If you want the lowest, etc.

Plan to check the thread at least once a day from now on. Twice
is better!

Leave messages here on the thread so people can see them.

With any luck we will finish the draft position choices by
tomorrow night (Tuesday). I’ll put them into kafenatid as soon
as the list is complete and send out an email to begin an
untimed draft for those who might know whom they want and it
is their turn.

That said, I know that some managers want to wait until the Mon
and Tues pre-season games are over to draft a player. That’s
OK too!

Right now I anticipate beginning the untimed player draft this
Wednesday, August 8th -- somebody suggest a start time EDT.

After the preseason games are over -- Wednesday, August 15th
-- we will follow the lead of the other leagues and use a 6 hour
clock and that should be enough to get us started and to cover
all our time zones. Queue lists should help here.

You should be ready to set up queues or be able to get on a
computer so we can keep the draft going. Hopefully not too
many rounds will use the entire 6 hour limit. If it gets close to
crunch time, we might need to shorten it.

If anyone has any other thoughts, please post them here.

Psycho- you appear to have drafted out of order...Team 8 which is yours needs to wait until 4,5,6,&7 have chosen their draft positions until you can choose yours.The draft board should read:

Been out of town for a few days. I see I got my normal draft position (14).

Thanks again to Judy, BoNka and all for the work you've put in.

I did have one question. I noticed the Receiving points are 1 for 25 yards. Am I correct with that? I have never used AOL before so I just want to make sure I know what I'm doing before the draft starts.

Also, yes, passing yardage is 1/25 or .04 points/yard.

I am sending a .pdf copy of the scoring rules from Guru via

OK, I'm off to bed. (Phils won again. Dontrelle was wild and that
helped us a lot.)

Hopefully, the last manager will choose his slot tonight or
tomorrow am.

When that happens, I'll load the order into Kafenatid and start
the draft. I'll also start a new/clean thread. Check here for the
link. This will not happen until afternoon EDT on Thursday.

The player draft will be untimed and run 24 hours, until after the
last pre-season game on Tuesday unless we decide otherwise.
After that it will be 6 hours and go 6 am to midnight EDT -- that
is what the others are doing as best I can tell.

As a matter of courtesy, if you are "on the (untimed) clock" and
do not plan to draft until after a certain time/game, please post
that information on the thread so the rest of us aren't getting
too eager. Also if you are out and about, leave a queue if you
wish to.

You all are great to work with! Keep checking the thread for
updates though...
