Thanks wolfer. All signed up.

As far rosters and draft options I like the modified draft order (1,12,12,1,12,1 ....) flipping the 3rd.

As for rosters I like the larger roster as opposed to monitoring the IR.

Are we usig the normal snake or a modfied draft? I messed up my football draft by not realizing the Bonzai

It is a tough choice to vote now that we know the draft order so taking choice out and follow the RIHC is likely the best.

OK, I just read the RIHC thread and I have to admit that I'm surprised that they voted to stay with a normal draft. I'm going to change my vote to a traditional draft to match RIHC.

Any objections to starting up on Friday? That is my goal. Also, we should be able to NOT have a clock on for the draft. We should be able to finish this be the end of next weekend (the 24th).

If we're not having a clock, is there any reason to use kafenatid.net? Not opposed, but why add a third site if that's all that site is used for. Just post your pick in the forum and we're good to go...

The clock last year did provide a bit of drama for me as the commish, as some people setup queues and didn't get to pick their player when they thought they should have (autopick/designated picker made the pick for them when the owner was available, etc...). It was a bit of a mess in my mind, so I'd vote to not use kafenatid especially if there is no clock and since we've got plenty of time before nba tipoff. Hopefully we get it done quick, but worst case scenario, I can't imagine we go over 2 weeks.

Kafenatid provides a lot of value in addition to the click. I like how it automagically keeps the list of available players current and eliminates the chance that someone picks the same player twice. I also like the queuing system. If nothing else, since every RIHC league is roughly the same, having all of the drafts run on Kafenatid lets us compare and contrast our picks with what the other RIHC leagues do.

      Tue, Oct 12, 2010, 20:04
I also like the kafenatid site. I like being being able to leave a nice long queue when I know I will be away for a long period of time. I just hope others who know they will be away will do the same. Nothing worse then waiting 8 hours for a person to pick.

      Tue, Oct 12, 2010, 20:56
The reason why I brought up no clock is that I belive the the RIHC is not using one and my QL last year also did not.

I guess 3RR might've made this part a bit more interesting.

I need kafenatid, as I won't have access to this site during the draft (7-4 EDT), but I can get to kafenatid.

Hibbert went 2nd pick of the 3rd round in the RIHC draft... wow I was debating whether to try for him in the 6th! Guess that's why drafts are so much fun---always a surprise or 2...

Yeah I know Hibbert was pretty early, but I had this Hibbert vs Galinari dilemma that is was not pretty, I gambled on Galinari dropping to me with the next pick, but no luck of course ....
So would Hibbert dropped to me I wonder....

Thanks wolfer.
I enjoyed this season a lot.
I hadn't expected to look at the Standings the last day and to be first.... that was really a huge surprise.
And no complaints about ESPN at all, it is certainly as good as a platform as the Yahoo version.
Have a great summer all.
