0 Subject: RIHC 2020-21 Roll Call

Posted by: Bean - [304422310] Tue, Nov 10, 2020, 00:35

The NBA has announced that the 2020-21 season will start 22 DEC. They have not produced a schedule yet, but project a 72 game season.

With that in mind, seems we need to get rolling on organizing the Rotoguru Hoops leagues. If you played last year, you should've received an e-mail from me.

The RIHC top league this season should include:

Top 6 from RIHC:

1 louky Team cards 77
2 RSF Rip City Dicks 74.5
3 KnicksFan KnicksFan's Losers 73.5
4 Schrodiger Schrodiger's Cats 70
5 Da Bomb Da Bomb 65
6 Jasonprof Team Smith 62

Top 3 from AAA-ESPN

1 Swish City Swish City 57
2 Addicted Addison Addicts 50
3 TD TD Dragons 47.5

Top 3 from AAA-Yahoo

1 Dave R SANFORDORS 56
2 BB the Ball BB the Ball 54
3 Meatwads Mighty Meatwads 48


For those of you are named above, please let me know ASAP if you plan to play in the RIHC top league this year. E-mail or post here, doesn't matter.

For those of you who are not named above, I need to know if you plan to play this year in a qualifying league. Also, if anyone would consider playing a second team to fill out a league, please indicate that as well. If you have a friend who might also be interested, please have them contact via e-mail or here too.

Finally, I need volunteers to act as commissioners. Let me know if you are interested.


Pray for a COVID free season.

Right now, we have 23 owners who will be returning, with two owners (Jasonprof and Twolves) still not responding.

Louky has decided not to defend his title, so Tosh will remain in the top league this year. Addicted will not return, so tommyd replaces him in the top league.

Jasonprof has a Hungary e-mail address that has been problematic in the past. I am going to keep trying to get a message through to him for another week before replacing him in the top league. S R will replace Jasonprof if he fails to respond.

So, we have the numbers for one AAA league, and we'll see if any new owner interest emerges before starting a second AAA. I will go up to 14 teams in the AAA before starting a second AAA league.

So this is the Top League:

2 RSF Rip City Dicks 74.5
3 KnicksFan KnicksFan's Losers 73.5
4 Schrodiger Schrodiger's Cats 70
5 Da Bomb Da Bomb 65
6 Jasonprof Team Smith 62
7 Tosh Air Tosh 60
1 Swish City Swish City 57
3 TD TD Dragons 47.5
4 tommyd Tommyd dawson 44
1 Dave R SANFORDORS 56
2 BB the Ball BB the Ball 54
3 Meatwads Mighty Meatwads 48


And this is the AAA:

8 s R s R 57
9 youngroman youngroman's Luschen 54
11 PhiliBuster Philly Busters 46
12 Great One Delaware Destroyers 33
5 stramonio Roma Stramonio 42
6 Bean Bean's Cavs 35.5
7 Species Species RIHC 35
8 Fosten Munson Mobsters 34.5
5 gurudan fear the monkey 41
6 WonderB WonderBeast 35
8 ywk YWC's Team 26
9 wolfer My Team 21

If Twolves responds, he will be 13th team in AAA
If we get a 2nd additional owner, he will be the 14th team in AAA
If we get a 3rd additional owner, we will make two 9-man AAA leagues and Bean, Jasonprof and BBtheBall will have 2nd teams.
Any additional owners after that will be split between the two AAA leagues.

Although Yahoo has opened for Hoops now, ESPN has not yet done so. We will be playing on ESPN with the Top League and the first AAA. If we end up having a 2nd AAA, it will be on Yahoo.

Once I get the leagues set up on ESPN, you'll receive an invite to join. Soon afterward you will receive an invite to Draft Time (though it wasn't running last I checked). Hopefully all of this will get done by early December. I'll give you some dates once ESPN opens up.

I would do a second team but seems the two leagues would look pretty similar if only 9 teams each.

Thanks twolves,

Unless we get two or more owners to step forward, who didn't play last year, I don't see us having two AAA leagues this year.

Once ESPN opens its fantasy hoops, I'll set a calendar of events, including a "last day to sign up". So if any long time gurupie lurking here is on the fence, please dont delay any longer. And, if anyone has a friend who may be interested, please have them post something here soon.

I'm in for a AAA slot. If it helps get enough for a 2nd AAA league, I'm up for an entry in both AAA leagues.

ESPN is now open, but Draft Time is not. I have renewed the ESPN league for the Top League and invited new owners.

Last Day to sign up for AAA is 1 DEC. I'll be setting up the AAA league(s) the next day.

I registered for the league with the link I got in an email, but it registered my teams as Philly Busters. Should I just change the name?

Yes, by renewing the league instead of rebuilding it each year, we can preserve the history at ESPN. It's a little clunkier than Yahoo, but it works. All new to the top league should change team name as they wish.

If that was an answer to me as far as just changing my name, I'm wondering why the link would register my team is Philly Busters

Per Fred at Draft Time in response to my asking when it will be available:

I have it on my to do list this weekend. I'm hoping most of the free agency and other contacts will be done by then... *fingers crossed *

Look for invite to Draft Time next week along with league invite. As time passes its looking more like only one AAA this year.

OK guys,

There is just going to be one 13 team AAA league this year and it will be played on ESPN. If you had a team in last year's AAA-ESPN, you were automatically enrolled. For the rest of you, you should have received an invite. You may have to change the team name you were invited into. Let me know if you did not get the invite.

I will get an invite to Draft Time some time today. If you don't have it by tomorrow let me know.

Once I get all of you in the Yahoo league, I will open a new thread in the Basketball Leagues and Standings Forum. Then, I will run a random selection order for the draft (hopefully you will all receive this via e-mail same time as I do). After that, we will start our draft order selection. Draft at Draft Time should be around 11 DEC start.

For RIHC - AAA owners. I have just run a draft order selection order at a website that sends results to all in a list simultaneously. You should have received the following list in an e-mail(I used your draft time e-mail cause it was the easiest cut and paste). Here are the results:

Pick # Team Name
1 youngroman's Luschen
2 Island Bombers
3 Team Wolfe
4 Delaware Destroyers
5 MN twolves
6 gurudan guchungas
7 Team WonderB
8 Philly Busters
9 Munson Mobsters
10 Species RIHC
11 Bean's Cavs
12 Roma Stramonio
13 s R

I am about to start our thread for this season in Basketball Leagues and Standings Forum. We'll begin draft order selection there with youngroman on the clock. Please move any league conversation to that thread.
