Neowin Fantasy Hockey Season 2008-09


Recommended Posts

Its up, who normally creates the league? I want in!

Due to a last minute departure, we were left with an odd number of players and Yahoo would not allow us to have a live draft in that situation. Faced with only 2 minutes before an automatic draft, bayrider was forced to delete the league. The good news is that he has created a new league. Please see the updated information below.
Okay, here are the new settings.

Link to more info on this keeper league? I am up for anything.

Apparently it is new to Yahoo this year:

Keeper Leagues

* Build your dynasty by keeping your best players each season

* Salvage a down year by trading for next year's stars

* Change your league's live draft order based on custom keeper rules

Eh... Not sure if I like that you keep players between seasons. I like the idea of having to re-draft each season so that everybody starts off with a clean slate.

Either way though, I'm in :yes:

We had two leagues last year. I suggest one of each. If there is room, I'll probably play both.

Okay, it's up and running guys!

The draft date isn't firm. If you have any concerns about the draft date I'll do what's best so that we can get as many people there as possible

If a Mod can sticky this and rename it to Neowin.net Fantasy Hockey League 2008-09 I'd appreciate it!

Can a Mod can rename to title to "Neowin Fantasy Hockey Season 2008-09" and sticky this to the top so we can get some more exposure and fill up the league :)

thanks

Done. Did you set this up as a keeper league?

It's fine if you didn't as we may need to create a second league anyway.

    • 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.
    • Everything they say you can already do yourself on the registry by changing some things.
    • Artist's renderings are so much nicer to view than the real thing, don't you think?
