2011 Omega Man Memorial Fantasy Football Challenge of Manliness

[Burnt C6]

Ok I'm registered.

[Will]

11 spots still available. I sent PMs to everyone (I think) who participated in the March Madness brackets.

[Rob]

I would love to play but I am busy all weekend at a BBQ competition. Therefore, I would be unable to attend the draft.

Friday night really is a bad night for the draft....Poker night would prolly be a better one....Like a Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday.....

Rescheduling is certainly an option if we get enough people in time.

I'll be on my way to Austria that weekend, but f*ck it.

Guys, would this THURSDAY NIGHT work for everyone for the draft?


I changed draft time to 7pm Thursday for now, since a lot of people had conflicts friday and over the weekend.


Entropy, I don't see you on there yet. Once you join, we only need one more person (need an even number).


Who else wants in ?????

[Will]

Also, be sure to look over the scoring rules above. I added a lot of the optional scoring, and I made some slight changes, especially to QBs. Their touchdowns were only worth 4 points by default, I set them to 6 points just like every other TD. The NFL is QB-centric in real life, and QB's score the same amount on a TD in real life.


Just something to keep in mind as you draft. Also -2 points for INTs, so a relatively mistake free QB is important as well.

Works for me.

[Jeff '79]

I'm going fishing Thursday..........jus kiddin' ...It's ok with me. Wednesday would be ideal though.

[Will]

Also if any of you guys are in a different time zone than EST and need it later than 7pm to be safe we can push the time later.


It looks like we'll maybe only have 6, so with 45 second picks and 18 rounds it shouldn't take too long. The maximum time if every pick took 45 seconds would be 1 hour 20 minutes or so.

As long as people show up for the draft. I don't agonize over my picks, I kind of decide on a few as other people are picking each round and usually one is left when it's my turn again.


Also I believe I can edit the draft order, so if Entropy and one other person can get signed up soon, I can post the randomized draft order, and then if folks want to trade with each-other I could accommodate that. I know some folks like picking first, and some folks prefer closer to the end so they can get 2 picks close together.

[Will]

OKAY. I see jay13 has signed up. Entropy, we just need you to sign up and we have an even number.

Hell I'm good with how ever you you set the scoring up. since everythign is done automaticly it's no big deal.

Thursday night at 7:00 is good with me.

If you no-show for the draft Yahoo autodrafts for you. I believe based on your draft order, and if you don't have one, then theirs.

No-showing is a good way to have a crap team though.
