im in as well...is there anyway to make the draft time a little earlier, say 9pm? they take a long time and I have to work the next day!

I have church that night and that's why I have it set to 9:00. I was going to change it to 8:00, but Yahoo will only allow you to choose from the following times (I guess they limit the amount of drafts going on at certain times).

All Central times

3:00

4:00

5:00

9:00

10:00

The only other one that would work for me is 3.. Let me know if you guys would rather do it then.

I'll leave it at 9 for now so we don't lose that spot.

Sorry, but according to Yahoo you can't adjust the decision time... Link

If most people can work with the 3:00 time, I'll gladly change it.

Perhaps if he is reading this he can provide some insight into why it would be different in football than it was in baseball. Unfortunately some people miss the draft and then give up on the entire season but that isn't good for everyone else.

I agree, dont let someone in who isnt going to play...it really kills the league

I can't do the draft at your time - from the UK. I didn't get in last season, but I played out the season before. If no one objects to me using the autodraft - I would like a spot, and I know a colleague of mine that did the pick 'ems last season (and is down for this season) would do the same.

Thanks for the heads up. We'll give him a day or two to respond, after that I'll boot him.

Jump on in Greeno. It will be impossible to get everyone there with all the time differences, so using the autodraft is not a concern.

      AMD is supported out of the box in linux because of their open source driver. Nvidia does not. All my systems are amd and all of them work nicely on linux arch without doing anything.

      Never had a problem with TPM and started using that many years ago in Win10. Through several motherboards and OS versions, it just does what it does without complaint. My games library doesn't even know it's there. Secure boot does a lot more than support anti-cheat, as it came along long before anti-cheat software. I've used it religiously since before I started using TPM, and I always liked it for being able to nullify virus contagions that try their best to come in underneath the firmware during boot, so that the OS doesn't see them, etc. That is its purpose, imo. I'll never understand why people who elect to use another OS feel compelled to run down Windows... I guess they need to do that to feel secure about their choices? I run Windows because it supports all the software (including games) natively that I want to buy, and I've never had to run down another OS to make me feel better about it. (Although it's certainly possible to do that, of course...) Win10 is on a ventilator atm, and Win11 is very close to being free, and I finally got to stop running StartAllBack as I moved to the Experimental/Dev channel and my 26300.8553 build supports the moveable taskbar and it's running fine at the top of the screen! Finally, my last major dislike of Win11 is being rectified! So, I'm not at all surprised to see Win11's share of the Steam survey hitting 70%.

      I can answer about the Linux bit. I only used AMD GPUs. I currently have a 9060XT (8GB) that fits my needs, I'm not a gamer, so I don't need that much GDDR. But lately, NVIDIA has grown a lot in the recent years. Oh, the horrors of NVIDIA drivers not working. But they have been getting better. I know a lot of members onm here that are running cachyOS and other distros, and are fine with a 4090/5090 variants. Really, though, I would stick with AMD variants.
