Baseballpro9, by any chance were you using 'war elephants' for fantasy football at nfl.com last year? I played against that name, so was just thinking about that :p

(now this better do better than the baseball league lol ;) )

If we're not there for the live draft, and everyone on our pre-ranked list has been taken, does Yahoo use their default list thing to fill in for who we want to draft?

the list goes on forever so it shouldn't run out but if it does it just picks up where you left off...

The yahoo system is really clean and easy. I have used it for a couple years, and really like it.

If you cannot make the draft, Yahoo will pick selections based on 2 things.

1. Your preranking of players

2. Yahoo's preranking of players.

So, here is what I do. I prerank about 50-75 people, that gives me about 3-5 rounds the way that "I" want the draft to go. Then when my preranking runs out (so those players have been drafted, or the posions that I have available are not on my predraft) it will move to the yahoo preranking.

You can even specify player that you do not want it to look at. So people like Anquin Bolden, Shipp Marcel) out for part to most of the season, you may not want to draft them ahead of time.

If you have any questions on fantasy football etc, let me know as I am in multiple leagues each year, and have used the yahoo system both live and predraft many time.

By the way. GO BUCS!!!!

How to enter:

Sign in to yahoo. If you don't have an account, get one at http://www.yahoo.com

Then click here: http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/f1...ster/joinleague (you may need to login at this point with your own Yahoo account) and select "Join a Custom League"

The league's # is 484445, password is boog.

Enjoy. We will ba having a live draft on September 14th (Tuesday) at 8 PM Central standard time (-6 GMT), unless a majority of owners do not want that. Live drafts are fun, though, in getting to know your fellow neowinians. If you cannot make a live draft, say so, but do not enter. I may open another league for non-live drafts, so we have the best of both worlds.

Awesome, I signed up. I never tried the live draft before, so I do not know if I can make it. A non-live draft league would be a good idea too. Then again if I am not there it will pick for me based on my rankings. Go Moles!

Boog could you possibly edit your first thread and put which person on Neowin corresponds to which team in fantasy football. Like myself I noticed that some people on yahoo do not have the same name as we do on Neowin, so we would not know who we are playing against.

      "77ee94b helium/windows: winsparkle updater (built-in auto-update support on Windows" If that's what I think it is, that is about the only thing that's been missing from this excellent browser. I guess I'll find out the next time I'm on a Windows machine.

      Good point Anti-spoofing protection for cloud mailboxes Anti-spoofing technology in Microsoft 365 specifically examines forgery of the From header field (also known as the 5322.From address, From address, or P2 sender), because email clients show the From header value as the message sender. When Microsoft 365 has high confidence the From header is forged, the message is identified as spoofed. https://learn.microsoft.com/en...g-protection-spoofing-about
    • DWARF mini review: the world's smallest smart telescope for night and day sky captures

      By Nick H. · Posted

      I sort of agree with you on that. I had a telescope - a real hefty thing, although only around 500CHF - that got me so fascinated about the stars and planets. I would stare for hours, amazed that I could see the craters of the moon or the rings of Saturn in "realtime" (quotations because, y'know, speed of light and whatnot). A friend of mine has a telescope like the one mentioned in the review, and the pictures are amazing to look at. But there is something missing for me. I may as well just go to NASA's website and look through their gallery.
    • Halo: Campaign Evolved is out next month with new prequel missions

      As opposed to catching bad press because it's the engine's fault? Unreal has all the tools a dev needs to optimize their game, Epic isn't gonna hold their hand to make sure they use them. Also, Epic isn't forcing anyone to use Lumen, Nanite or super high resolution meshes and textures. Just because Nanite can render meshes with millions of polygons doesn't mean you should use it like that, in fact, Epic recommends you avoid doing that. Most of the stuttering can easily be fixed by cutting down on unique materials by using master materials, using instanced meshes or combining meshes, generating a thorough PSO cache to allow shader pre-compilation and also managing what must be loaded and unloaded at runtime. It's up to the developer to set all that up properly, and no, Unreal or any other engine can't do any of that for you.
