The first games are Thursday Sept 10th. Can I suggest a draft on Sunday afternoon/evening on Sept 6th? I would think most people would be free on a Sunday afternoon/evening....plus it would give more time to get at least 8 players. If we don't get at least 8 players I'm not sure it will work well.
Sunday afternoon Sept. 6 is perfect for me.
Tuesday night is not good as I often don't get home from work mid-week until after 8:00 pm PST.
And the main issue is we need 8 players minimum. Come on fellow Alamaze gamers, take a crack at fantasy football.
I agree on points here. We need a minimum of 8 to make it worthwhile - come on people, this doesn't cost anything and is just about bragging rights! You do watch the NFL, don't you?
Sunday the 6th afternoon is perfect for me too if we get to at least 8 and hopefully 10.
Can we please make the draft Sunday September 6th?
We also need two more players. Come on guys! A little friendly competition over fantasy football?

The Draft has been set for Sunday at 6:15 pm. Let me know if this time works.
Please invite your friends to the league. I think we need to open this up so we get at least 8 and preferably 10.

I set up the following league on Yahoo. First come, First served for 12 teams.
All settings can be adjusted based on majority decision. I tried to pick the most popular settings.
I am not setting an entry fee as I am not interested in collecting money but if another participant wanted to take on that endeavor I would not object to a prize fee of $25 or so.

Head to Head
12 teams – 2 divisions, Top 6 teams make the playoffs with division winners placed as the top playoff seeds
** Scoring **
Passing TD = 4 pts
25 passing yards = 1 point
Interception = -1 pont
Rushing, receiving, return TD = 6 points
10 Rushing, receiving yards = 1 point
Reception = 1 point
Fumble = -2
2 point conversion = 2 point
FG = 3 point, 40+ yards = 4 point, 50+ yards = 5 point
Defense standard scoring with bonus for points allowed
Block kick = 2 points
Roster = QB, RB, WR, 2X Flex, TE, K, D
Flex = RB/WR
On-line Draft = Sunday Sept 6 @ 6:15 pm pacific standard time
Trade deadline set to the latest possible
Trade approval based on commissioner approval. I tend to approve everything unless there is very obvious collusion. ( a first round pick for a player out for the year would be denied)
I adjusted the draft information in the above post. We need two more players. Draft is today at 6:15 pm PST.
Come on, guys. Join up and have some fun with a live fantasy draft and something to talk about every Sunday when Alamaze is not processing our turns. If you haven't played fantasy football yet, give it a try with friends who you know share your Alamaze interest and decide whether fantasy football is for you or not. If you have played fantasy football before, please help out a few of your friends and give us a couple more players so we can get this league started.

Yeah, BTW, I assume we are not on for today with not yet 8 players, and we should probably need 10.
