Neowin Fantasy Football 2008 [NFL]

[~Greeno~]

I've just talked my friend through the sign up process (he is a member on here - but doesn't use it very often) and got him in, but now the league is full :D lol...oops.

Would anyone be interested in making it 16 teams? or i'll put my name down for a 'B' league...

(d'oh!)

-- or

Reading up, if SausE's place becomes available, I'd like to serve this as notice for that spot please :)

Greeno i'm in mate.....hello all!

I'm going to have to use the auto draft as well....wont be up at that time in the morning!

[bdsams Veteran]

I may be dropping out, I only like to do two leagues a year and may sacrafice this one to get into one at work...

[~Greeno~]

Let me know Netrack :) (much appreciated if so)

Word. I have a friend (he isn't a Neowin member) who'd like in.

:huh: the whole point is for neowin players to play against each other

I don't see it being an issue if we need a player to make up the numbers.

[~Greeno~]

Well :) I'd still like in chaps - so maybe if we're going to extend the numbers, we could set some sort of time limit on this? If myself and ynnoj got in, that would give us 16 - which is a nice round number? :)

Bonza - I'm the 16th team "Loves2Spooge" (Thanks South Park :p)

I'm already in.

Is that 16 now? Let's roll!

Hey guys,

I would like to change the draft time to 3 o'clock central time if possible. I've got a dinner I have to attend that night. 3 o'clock may be better for most of you anyway. If it's going to be a problem I'll just leave the time and set up autodraft for myself. If I don't hear any complaints I'll change the time in a few days.

Also, Virtualmadden suggested making this a 20 team league. I'm up for if you guys are, because it's definately a different type of experience. Anyone interested?

[~Greeno~]

If we get an even number of people in here with an intent to sign up, go for it... the more the merrier (and it makes it harder), but having odd numbers makes things problematic.

3:00pm central? That translates to 9:00pm GMT, correct? That's a lot better for me.

Like I said earlier, I have a friend who'd like to join. He isn't on Neowin, but if he'd gladly make up the numbers.

Works for me... I'm (along with a couple of others) in the UK

9PM GMT is great for me.....saves me auto drafting then!

3:00 p.m. Sunday August 24, 2008 in US/Central converts to 8:00 p.m. Sunday August 24, 2008 in GMT according to This converter.

[~Greeno~]

Yep :) no complaints here then... go for it... at least then I won't end up with a team of auto drafted stiffs!

[bdsams Veteran]

i have removed myself from the league...there is atleast one spot open!

That sucks Net.. Are you dropping so that you can do your work league?

That means that we have an opening that we need to fill before Sunday. Also, Sause has never responded to Fred Derf about him abandoning his Fantasy MLB team, so if you know someone on Neowin that would like to fill that spot I'll boot him so they can fill in. Let me know.

[~Greeno~]

defwhig - to save us all logging on and checking, has the draft been 'officially' changed to 8pm Sunday (GMT/UK) time? :) Cheers!

[defwhig]

Yep. :)

[Fred Derf Veteran]

I cannot make the draft. I'll try to set my auto-draft choices tonight. Or I'll just take who I get.

[Fred Derf Veteran]

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

Did he respond? Right now we have 15 players and even leagues are preferable (no bye weeks).

Nope.. He didn't.. I think I'll just boot him to make it an even number of teams.
