I just heard from Taxman [e-mail] who was surprised to not find Poliboard listed in Rotoguru but who is still interested in competing with us.

How soon should we get serious about getting another year in gear?

Thanks for prompt response Boldy.

I will return home from Europe August 28. I will have limited access to e-mail. Please send me an e-mail re: keepers when they are due, if that is required before I return.

Yep, I'm in... Sorry, didn't know these boards are hidden now..
Had to google search it.


Best bet would be to just send invites out from the Yahoo site as well as tell folks this board is hidden now.

Let's start hearing about vacation hangups we have to work around.

Is the league up and running?
I think we would have a better idea of who is coming back if we sent a league invite to get everyone back and setup. Then can work on draft dates etc. I don't mind paying for the draftime again, if that is the route we want to go.

I really appreciate that. Who currently has the keys to the commish chair? Hand it to me if you aren't going to get moving quickly.

Any interest in a quicker Drafttime draft? Like 5 minute intervals and get this one over in a night or two?

There are still a few vacation conflicts and it's getting late so I reiterate...we should do a quicker draft with 5min intervals perhaps. Get it over in two evenings.

I've asked Tree several times to pass the reigns... Don't know what else to do.

I'll be on vacation starting Wednesday - Sunday, so my ability to help with the league will be just about zero.

I was hoping to get it all started and sent out today.

Two managers down.
Being on vacation this week will be tough for me to find replacements

We could ask the G24 group I suppose.

We will be a league at about 9pm tonight.
Please start looking at your teams closely and getting your keeps figured out.
Would like to get keepers and everything ready to start draft by late Wednesday or Thursday.

Thanks

I think we have to make two picks for Punk if it gets back to him and he's still absent.

I've got a total of 1...one...phone contact number. I've expedited these things by phone even when we had drafttime for years and it works great when i have enuff contact numbers.

I'm not desperate. We always gain momentum and remember how to operate the queue system.

But it's galling to think how much better this could be running with phone calls.

If Punk isn't back by his next pick I think we need to group-pick his previous missed pick if not his current pick also.

Since he's short WR, I suggest we give him the best WR [non-injured] available on the ESPN rankings.

Comments?

Nice recovery, Punk. I really wanted those guys if I could have only figure out a way to make them my WR4 and WR5.

Note to the two buys ahead of me. By the time it gets down to two picks ahead of mine I generally have my 3-man Q solidified in my mind and it's on set-and-forget at that point. So if you also are on set-and-forget but instead of autopick you left your finalized Q but you left me as designated picker...we'll still form a bottleneck even tho we both have perfectly solid Queues.

I'm an eager beaver here, and watch it around the clock but by the time the line gets down to the last three I'm exhausted.

When the draft is done is there a waiver priority?
If so what is the order?

Yes, and I dunno...perhaps reverse order of finish?

Chris has been phoned and message left in box. Normally I still feel kinda iffy when it only goes to voicemail but It seemed to work out OK last time. He was relatively prompt somehow.

How do you not check the draft first thing in the morning to see if you are up? And still think you have the chops to play in this league?

IDK, maybe you've got a non-conventional work schedule or a death in the family?

Won't check the draft, won't give me a contact number so I can rattle his chain.

Not targeting just one person, either.

I dont get the refusal to set a queue.
If you are not going to be at a computer how hard is it to set a queue?

queues negate one aspect of draft strategy for some people. i alter my strategy on the fly, often.

as for phone numbers, yea, no.

Sorry Tree I cant bye your excuse. 100% BS.
The site has pick based queues to allow for altering your strategy on the fly. There was also a delay in case you needed a last minute tweak.

i don't need you to BUY my "excuse". nor, do i give a $hit whether you do or not. it's how i've always drafted, and pick based queues don't allow to adjust for what is going on in front of you, because you're setting them in advance.

In my other league I am leading in the championship game with 23 seconds to go. But he has 3 players going and I am only up by ~2.5 pts.

I'm against his Denver FG kicker and Sanders.
