I think there was a minor error and that
Toral is AAA eligible -- he was in the AA play offs, so I will hold a space for him as per his request.
I asked Guru to double check for me.

Once I get the email from GURU, we'll get the entry into FanBall and get the draft order all set up for Kafenatid so we'll be ready to go.
Would anyone volunteer to do that two sets of random numbers thing for me to set the draft order? We'll do it in this thread and save the next thread for other stuff.
Please be sure to send GURU the $6 league fee and consider adding a bit more and becoming a patron. He does good work and makes sure our leagues are successful and fun to play in.

Step up in this space and figure it out for us, using the original order listed in #23. Show all work (just like in math class oh so many years ago...)
I expect to open up our Kafenatid site soon -- maybe by the weekend!

Good job -- still waiting for two to sign in to Kafenatid and I will set the order there and activate us.
Possible dates: August 15 (Friday) untimed draft starts August 18, 6 AM EDT timed (6 hours/pick) starts
These seem to be what the RIFC big guys are planning to do, so we will follow suit. This should allow us to finish by Labor Day without too much trouble.
I still need 5 people to sign into Fan Ball, and 3 who signed in need team names.
If you need another invite to either FanBall of Kafenatid, shoot me an email.
I know of 2 (for sure) who have sent their $6/5 league fees to GURU. If you haven't yet, please do it soon so you don't forget. Also consider an additional donation for his efforts.

I will be traveling to and from Wyoming from August 8 thru August 17. I will try to find a local Internet source to daily check in. A solid week of dawn to midnight fireworks shows, classes, vending, and demonstrations for the PGI convention in Gillette. This only happens every 5 years. At least I only need a que of 3 for my first pick.

NICE WORK! Everyone is signed up in both Kafenatid and Fan Ball. I'll be checking with GURU when he gets back from vacation (8-12) to see who still owes the league fee ($5/6).
I am waiting for the draft start dates from GURU -- see #49 for the most likely scenario. Also, this year there is NO PAUSE ON WEEKENDS.
Just for curiosity, what time zones are people in -- just so we can have a sense of who is awake/asleep or at work?
I know some of them:

A geographic shift or a delayed or early time shift?
I know ours in the US is later in the fall and earlier in the spring and frankly, I would like daylight savings all year. The kids go to school in the dark in both scenarios and I like the light when I get home @ 5/6.

SCHEDULES ARE ENTERED IN FANBALL.
With one exception -- week 4 game 2 and week 10 game 2 -- you will play each team once during the bye week and once fully staffed. It was not possible to "fix" two sets of games -- 4.2 and 10.2, so I tried to spread them out for you. You also do not have the same two opponents during any week of the season.
Please look over your schedule to be sure you play each team twice and then so note it here in this thread!
Thanks.

The draft will be opened at 12:01AM EDT Friday August 15. It will be UNTIMED -- so do not feel pressured to pick.
UNLESS, you want it opened earlier. If so, speak up here!
The TIMED draft will begin on Monday with a six hour clock. Here are your choices: (Remember if it is your turn you can pick when the clock is stopped.)
A) 6 am to midnight EDT B) 7 am to 1 am EDT
Please vote here -- 8 votes wins -- I'll vote at the end...if needed.

yes.
I'm leaning toward a certain player now. Actually it's a different player than I was a few days ago. Trying to find all the info I can. Would have been much easier if I took the 2nd pick, but I think the way I'm going now will be better.
Hope to have it made in a few mins...

I will be unavailable all day Saturday until very late Saturday Pacific time. If my turn comes up on Saturday, it will be Sunday morning before I make the 3rd pick. I will pick this evening, if my turn comes up on Friday.

Pick number 2 has been made. If someone wants to email Dave Pyro he was here half an hour ago and might be able to get his pick in before tonight.

Hey
It was fun, but HARD WORK -- by each of us -- I felt like a real GM / negotiator. The fun now will be to see who gets what player and then do another comparison after the draft is over -- and at the end of the season as well!
Dave and I had a sneaky way to get past his work email last year. I will try it. It didn't work - he must have changed the address. Oh, well at least he let us know when he would be picking!
With any luck, we might get through round one and maybe into round 2 by Monday!
Get your queues (and popcorn) ready!
I'll be opening up a new thread for draft etiquette, discussions etc. Give me a moment and then I'll post the link.

Can someone make it look better -- I can't get the link function to work properly!
All discussions should now go to this new thread!

#103 What was it we did? I can give you my work phone number. For the new players - I work for the US Navy as a civilian engineer, and they kindda seriously frown on using government computers for personal enjoyment at any time let alone work hours.
I made the #3 pick just now - let the laughing begin!!!!.
