I'd like to join, but I've never done a fantasy league before and I don't know enough about all the players to draft well or manage anything well :/

Last year was my first year and I ended up winning. Generally Yahoo provides pretty good rankings. Hockey is easier to draft than football because the positions are simpler. Well, maybe I just know them better.

I have never done a fantasy league either. Thats why I want to try it. I wouldn't know much about the drafting etc either. I know hockey and a lot of players, but I am more or less a noob there. It is something that is pretty interesting to me though.

There is now about a week or so until the draft. There is still room for a few players.

I preset my custom draft order in case I can't make it. Although, really, it didn't end up being that different from Yahoo's order.

Are we going to close the league to non neowin players by cutting down the slots, or just let em in?

I already cut it down from 12 to 10 (meaning that instead of 4 non-Neowinians, there will be only 2).

If nobody wants to join before the draft then I'll cut it down to 8 and lock everyone else out.

So unless I forget to check/update in two hours, we should have no more than 1 non-Neowinian.

      Right, Google... because that's who this is going to. Google, the company who's entire business model is geared around ad revenue and your personal data.

      That is the natural course for regulations. First to protect the consumer. Then to protect the business/industry from upstart competition. There are countless examples across history.

      I have never been a huge fan of libre, it feels really good but exactly when you need an advance feature for data wrangling it falls short every time or has bugs. I am all for euro office if they can deliver a good and usable alternative to MS office with backing of govt function.
    • Dell, HP PCs ran into endless reboot, BitLocker recovery loops but Windows 11 isn't to blame

      By grunger106 · Posted

      Go on, I'll bite. How does windows (nice comment on an 'article' which doesn't actually involve it ) lock users out of their data then? Been using it since 3.1 back in 92 and not once have I been locked out of my data? Perhaps you mean Bitlocker? In which case the average user (who doesn't mess about) will have been forced to use a MSA, and in which case the recovery key would have been saved to said account..... If the user did happen to bodge around and not use an MSA then Bitlocker wouldn't have become live (as it cannot without a safe place to store the key) I want to point out Bitlocker and MSA are not connected and you can of course force it on without a safe place to store the key, but you do that with your eyes open. So your standard consumer who knows no better sets up an MSA, gets bitlocker and a recovery key stored off box, with a route to reset their password. All of this notwithstanding the fact, if your data is important, you back it up, no ifs, no buts, no-ones responsibility other than your own. Important data lives in at least two locations, one of which is offline and recovery is tested, otherwise that data wasn't really that important. Disks, fail, laptops get lost, phones end up down the toilet, tablets get stolen, if your only copy of data is on a single device you're doing it wrong.
