Just a reminder!! Season starts in:

1 | Battles
ID: 517373013 Tue, Sep 07, 2004, 11:25
|
Looks like AG has timed out. I'll go ahead and make my 2 picks.
|

Battles - Aaron Schobel was taken 13.10.
|
3 | Battles
ID: 517373013 Tue, Sep 07, 2004, 11:45
|
Sorry, it was skipped over and I forgot to update my chart. I'll change it.
|
4 | Baldwin
ID: 3830420 Tue, Sep 07, 2004, 11:55
|
I cannot believe Mike Peterson couldn't last 6 more picks. It's the near misses that hurt.
|
5 | Battles
ID: 517373013 Tue, Sep 07, 2004, 12:01
|
He said he didn't want to be on your team and have to pronounce Adewale Ogunleye. He like teams with nice American names.
|
6 | Battles
ID: 517373013 Tue, Sep 07, 2004, 13:54
|
time to move on. AG has timed out again.
|
7 | Athletics Guy
ID: 45811713 Tue, Sep 07, 2004, 14:15
|
Sorry about that. I left a queue, but I guess Holt was busy.
|
8 | holt
ID: 497552 Tue, Sep 07, 2004, 15:00
|
sorry AG. this is the first chance I've had to get on-line today.
|
9 | holt
ID: 497552 Tue, Sep 07, 2004, 15:41
|
I've got a queue from promize, but it was sent on saturday. wonder if I should pick from it.
|
10 | Promize
ID: 19742168 Tue, Sep 07, 2004, 15:42
|
No I'm here...
|
11 | Pops
ID: 54726118 Tue, Sep 07, 2004, 15:52
|
Holt, how exactly do I add players to my roster in rotoworld?
|
12 | holt
ID: 497552 Tue, Sep 07, 2004, 16:43
|
pops - go to set-up, then draft, then click this link: (Click here to enter the rosters after your draft)
|
13 | Athletics Guy
ID: 25845713 Tue, Sep 07, 2004, 17:00
|
Are we going to stay with the 2-hour clock for tomorrow as well? Or shorten it?
|
14 | holt
ID: 497552 Tue, Sep 07, 2004, 17:19
|
pops - go ahead and pick if you're around.
AG - we'll see how we're standing later tonight. if we have to shorten it to an hour we will.
|
15 | holt
ID: 497552 Tue, Sep 07, 2004, 17:22
|
5 of our team rosters are entered so far. they only take a few minutes to do. if you want to do your own then that's cool, otherwise I'll take care of it.
|
18 | Athletics Guy
ID: 25845713 Tue, Sep 07, 2004, 17:39
|
Another question: what is the playoff format/schedule for this league?
|
19 | Pops
ID: 54726118 Tue, Sep 07, 2004, 17:54
|
Holt I just emailed you my # and Battles has it from before...don't hesitate to give me a ring if it gets back to me tonight.
Also, I had the same problem as someone noted previously. I saved my lineup, went to set it, and there's nothing available.
|
20 | Baldwin
ID: 3830420 Tue, Sep 07, 2004, 18:15
|
Someone has entered my team for me but when I try and look at my roster it's empty. No biggy, it'll be done right at the end of the draft I presume.
|
21 | holt
ID: 497552 Tue, Sep 07, 2004, 18:38
|
you can't see your roster because we're not in "in-season" mode yet.
|
22 | holt
ID: 497552 Tue, Sep 07, 2004, 18:40
|
ag -- I don't remember the playoff set-up exactly. something like week 13 the top 8 teams go to play-off mode. that info can be found in a thread called RIFC draft prep.
|
24 | Athletics Guy
ID: 45811717 Tue, Sep 07, 2004, 18:47
|
The Rotoworld site is just confusing me. I looked at the team and weekly schedules, and it showed our regular season ending after week 13. But when I click the playoff schedule link, it says:
"Your league is set up to start the playoffs week 16. However your League Manager has not set up the way the playoffs will work. The League Manager can do that in the Setup section."
|
25 | holt
ID: 497552 Tue, Sep 07, 2004, 18:47
|
yeah - I haven't set that up yet. I think everything else is set though.
|
26 | holt
ID: 497552 Tue, Sep 07, 2004, 18:49
|
bmd on the clock.
|
27 | holt
ID: 187472321 Tue, Sep 07, 2004, 20:31
|
hubble and bmd both posted that they are around to make their picks now. hubble said not to wait for him, so when his picks come up we'll give him a few minutes to see if he's around or not.
|
28 | holt
ID: 187472321 Tue, Sep 07, 2004, 20:34
|
also - there's a queue for wazaap guy in the other discussion thread.
|
29 | holt
ID: 187472321 Tue, Sep 07, 2004, 20:50
|
I'm here at justin's house. we'll give hubble a few minutes in case he checks in.
|
30 | holt
ID: 187472321 Tue, Sep 07, 2004, 21:28
|
pops, if you're around - give lilpeeper one hour to make his pick, then your clock starts.
|
31 | kev

|
Entered my lineup...I tried before, but it didn't seem to save it.
|
32 | Baldwin
ID: 3830420 Wed, Sep 08, 2004, 04:18
|
The queue for wazuuupguy has already been used. I doubt he wants another kicker and in fact I'm almost certain all the kickers on that list are now gone.
|
33 | holt
ID: 497552 Wed, Sep 08, 2004, 05:17
|
one-hour limit for everyone today. if the draft is still going at 9 pm central then we will abandon draft order and everyone will pick there last players, first come first serve, just to get it over with. I'll make sure all the rosters are ready to go tomorrow night and we will be able to set our lineups by thursday morning.
make sure you all get your roster set before the game.

Hey guys, I appreciate the RIFC picks, but I now have a full slate of defensive players (and two on my bench). Please pick only offensive players or team defenses from here on out...
|
35 | Promize
ID: 19742168 Wed, Sep 08, 2004, 08:45
|
Hey Holt, you should email the league telling them the 1 hour thing...
I might have to send you a que again or someone during my class hours.
|
37 | Pops
ID: 54726118 Wed, Sep 08, 2004, 10:16

Twarpy has timed out, Promize is up.
|
38 | Promize
ID: 19742168 Wed, Sep 08, 2004, 10:29
|
K, picking in a minute or so...
BMK you are down a pick still, you have missed 2 rounds
|
39 | Baldwin
ID: 28388 Wed, Sep 08, 2004, 10:37
|
I will have my pick right after Promize as I am alert and present and have 2 hot picks on Q.
|
41 | Baldwin
ID: 28388 Wed, Sep 08, 2004, 10:52
|
Wazuuupguy is up.
|
42 | Baldwin
ID: 28388 Wed, Sep 08, 2004, 10:54
|
...and he has no current Queue and hasn't checked in in a looong time. I am guessing he's in school atm.
|
43 | Pops
ID: 54726118 Wed, Sep 08, 2004, 11:13

Baldwin please repick - Julius Peppers was taken in the 10th round.
|
44 | Baldwin
ID: 28388 Wed, Sep 08, 2004, 11:18
|
crap
I use ctl-F continuously...dont know how that could happen.
|
45 | Baldwin
ID: 28388 Wed, Sep 08, 2004, 11:22
|
Ah...lil peepers misspelled it Pepper and ctl-f doesn't read that for Peppers.
|
46 | Baldwin
ID: 28388 Wed, Sep 08, 2004, 11:22
|
There goes 8 hours of research yesterday.
|
47 | Pops
ID: 54726118 Wed, Sep 08, 2004, 11:24
|
The same thing happened to me on Justin Fargas...he was "Justis" Fargas and didn't come up under Justin.
Though Justis sounds like a much cooler name for an RB, and a much cooler name all around really. It's not just a third down name :-).
|
48 | Baldwin
ID: 28388 Wed, Sep 08, 2004, 11:40
|
It's really safer to just use a partial form of the word you are looking for. I do that a lot, just not in this case.
Farg or pep would have handled those cases.
|
49 | Promize
ID: 19742168 Wed, Sep 08, 2004, 11:41

Guess my Lamar Gordon pickup is gonna turn out to be pretty good... Will see.
|
50 | Baldwin
ID: 28388 Wed, Sep 08, 2004, 11:56
|
Unbelievable. Good for you.
|
51 | Baldwin
ID: 28388 Wed, Sep 08, 2004, 11:58
|
What's even worse is I just found out the kicker I just picked just got injured.
|
52 | Pops
ID: 54726118 Wed, Sep 08, 2004, 12:23
|
Wazaaap guy has timed out, Athletics guy is on the clock.
|
53 | Baldwin
ID: 28388 Wed, Sep 08, 2004, 14:13
|
Um, we give wazaaapguy another hour?
|
54 | Baldwin
ID: 28388 Wed, Sep 08, 2004, 14:36
|
Test
|
55 | Baldwin
ID: 28388 Wed, Sep 08, 2004, 14:37
|
Wazuuupguy has just timed out again. I proceed to pick 19.04.
|
56 | Pops
ID: 54726118 Wed, Sep 08, 2004, 16:01
|
Twarpy timed out, I'm picking.
|
57 | holt

i'm around. waiting for bmd's pick.

|
60 | McHubbled
ID: 1549114 Wed, Sep 08, 2004, 18:35
|
... i'll do my catch up tonight hopefully...
Working too much...
I didnt have time to read the posts... my question is do i need to do something in rotoworld to setup my team?
|
61 | holt
ID: 497552 Wed, Sep 08, 2004, 18:40
|
I can do it hubble. I'll make sure all the teams are set before I go to sleep tonight.
if you want to do it:
go to set-up, then draft, then click this link: (Click here to enter the rosters after your draft)
|
62 | holt
ID: 497552 Wed, Sep 08, 2004, 19:06
|
lil peeper on the clock now.
hubble and bmd have picks to make up.
|
63 | Pops
ID: 54726118 Wed, Sep 08, 2004, 19:10
|
I picked b/c I wont be around for a while.
I also thought it was safe b/c Lil Peeper drafted a kicker a few rounds earlier.
If he wants to draft Tynes, then he certainly can, and my pick can just be changed to Kris Brown.
|
64 | Promize
ID: 19742168 Wed, Sep 08, 2004, 20:43
|
Blue Hen's 19th pick is a great pick... Damn, didn't even remember to look into him.. A steal this late in the draft.
|
65 | Baldwin
ID: 28388 Wed, Sep 08, 2004, 20:54
|
That's a drawback to being in more than one league. I coulda swore he was picked already.
|
66 | Baldwin
ID: 28388 Wed, Sep 08, 2004, 21:50
|
There goes my gabriel...so close...10 minutes.
|
67 | Baldwin
ID: 28388 Wed, Sep 08, 2004, 22:01
|
Also a very very nice 20 Promize.
|
68 | Promize
ID: 19742168 Wed, Sep 08, 2004, 22:25
|
Ok, I think I got everything updated except for the most recent pickups...
Several teams still need to fill their rosters... Twarpy hasn't picked for 5 rounds...
Update of Rosters
|
69 | Baldwin
ID: 28388 Wed, Sep 08, 2004, 23:14
|
Since I drafted an injured player I need to move, I was wondering how soon we can get players off the WW. Not for the first week I am guessing?
|
70 | holt
ID: 497552 Thu, Sep 09, 2004, 00:38
|
not sure about that baldwin. I'm gonna get these rosters updated asap and set us in season mode. then you can see what kind of moves you can make.
|
71 | holt
ID: 497552 Thu, Sep 09, 2004, 01:44
|
I didn't notice that twarpy fell that far behind. we will have to use rifc picks to fill his roster.
|
72 | holt
ID: 497552 Thu, Sep 09, 2004, 02:25
|
promize - your chart shows farrior on twarpy and kev's teams. should be on kev's.
|
73 | youngroman
ID: 206491016 Thu, Sep 09, 2004, 02:46
|
holt - if I get a correct chart I'll try to enter the rest of the teams as soon as I get it. I still have your login-info in my inbox. the first time I entered the players in RQFL#1 i had a similiar problem. the key for me was to fill a team and then save it. then fill the next. possibly the key was also to use IE as browser and not Opera/Mozilla.
|
74 | holt
ID: 497552 Thu, Sep 09, 2004, 03:16
|
thanks. I use mozilla. I'm almost done now. 3 teams left. I did several teams yesterday and saved each time. as soon as I'm done with these I'm gonna hit the "start season" button. hopefully that will take care of it.
|
75 | holt
ID: 497552 Thu, Sep 09, 2004, 03:55
|
rosters now updated. check them over and make sure everything is OK.

Holt have class today or something? Tried to email him, and no response yet.
|
80 | youngroman
ID: 59242611 Thu, Sep 09, 2004, 14:15
|
note on post 77: there are no doubleheaders in Rotoworld.
promize - I think you should be able to do a free agent pickup until the start of the opener today.
|
81 | Promize
ID: 19742168 Thu, Sep 09, 2004, 14:38

I tried, unless I am doing something wrong it wouldn't execute, I will try again, maybe Holt turned it on?
|
82 | holt
ID: 497552 Thu, Sep 09, 2004, 15:41

I'll check it out promize. did you e-mail me the name of the player you want?
waivers run through wednesday each week. I think it should be in full FA mode now.

Maybe i'm wrong, but it looks like the league settings are that we get points for punt and kick off return... somethign like 1 point for 10 yards...
and the rules states...
"IDP do not receive other offensive points or return points"
|
93 | Hubble
ID: 1549114 Thu, Sep 09, 2004, 17:30

I might be interested in talking pops... i only have S. Moss if it is enought...
maybe 2 vs 2 type of trade... i'll think about something, you can make a proposal too...
|
94 | Pops

|
99 | holt
ID: 497552 Thu, Sep 09, 2004, 20:46

should be an easy victory for baldwin this week. twarpy still hasn't set his starters and he has brady, givens, thornton, and freeney on his squad.

hubble - I brought up your question to rotoworld:
Rotoworld.com Customer Service:
By default the IDPs will definitely get credit for kick and punt returns. If you don't want that you need to change the league scoring to score differently for different positions. Then do not enter any scoring for the Default position for kick and punt returns. Enter scoring for kick and punt returns for QBs, RBs, WRs and TEs - that way they will get credit for those stats and IDPs won't
Replying to your message:
hi. my league uses IDP's. we want to make sure that the IDP's don't score points for kick/punt returns. we only want offensive players to score in those categories. can you explain to me how that works? hopefully this is the default setting. otherwise we'll have people drafting DB's who return kicks. _____________________________________
this sucks. wish I had time to fix this.

still waiting for yesterday's scores. you'd think they'd have an automated process for this ready to go.

holt - scores are in their database but not yet listed on every page, try this: your matchup and then click on the points of your team (not your teams name) and you should see detailed scoring for your team. that way you can also view all other teams.

hmmm. twarpy would have the most points in the league right now if he had taken the time to set his starters. I think that if he doesn't get his starters set by friday we should boot him from the league and find someone else to run that team.
