Hey guys,

Football season is just about here! I went ahead and set up our league to give everyone plenty of time to get signed up. A few years ago we had a 20 team monster league and it was a blast, so we're going retro this year!

Currently I have the draft setup for August 29 @ 9:00 PM Central Time. I would like to leave it at that date, so try to plan things around it. If you still can't be there, please set up your draft order as best you can.

If you are new this year, be sure that you review the scoring system for this league as it will affect your draft order.

*Please include your Neowin user name somehow into your team name.*

I'm having trouble with it tho...

is this the correct link?

http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/f1/register/joinprivateleague_league_select

Yes, that is the correct link except that I get this error:

There was a problem

This league is not registered in this game. (Error #272)

Has the league been deleted?

Incidentally, if we need to set up a new league then we might as well reuse the same league that was created in 2004. I'll send a reminder to the old Commish just in case.

I dont really care if you use your neowin username in your team name, just put a post or something in this thread with the team name I guess.

Just joined. First year I've done Fantasy Football, but I won't be able to make it for the draft. Will it auto select for me?

There won't be a draft unless we have an even number of players. Last time I checked, that wasn't the case. We'll need either one more player or three to even things out.

Yes, however, the system will autodraft players for you. If you prefer certain players over others (Yahoo has them preranked based on their own opinions) then you can alter the predraft rankings and create you own list. You may want to look over the rankings in advance of the draft.

Live Draft in: 1 day, 6 hours, and 38 minutes.
Your league currently contains an odd number of teams

You must have an even number of teams in order to determine schedule and draft.

We still need one more player to join before the draft. Who's it going to be, you?

Okay, I added a second team to the football league so that we can draft today. Obviously I won't trade players with myself and we'll have to decide what to do when my teams play head to head. Perhaps we'll get someone else to suggest the second team's roster and, failing that, I'll just start whomever has the highest projected totals. Fair?

For those new to fantasy leagues, we can't begin the season with an odd number of players. Prior to this we had seven players.

Oh, If anyone still wants to join then let me know ASAP and I'll delete this team to free up a space for somebody else.

Your live online draft is set for Sun Aug 29 6:00pm EDT [ Add to My Calendar ], which is 2 hours and 11 minutes from now. Please arrive at least 10 minutes early since your draft will start promptly at the assigned time.

I can step down. Heck, I won't even be around for the draft and don't want to take the time to sort the rankings.

Well, a league of only six players wouldn't be that great either. It's a no win situation at the moment.

Edit:

The purpose of coming here was to post... 30 minutes to draft time!

:p

I'm surprised I'm doing so well. I feel like I have a good problem with the receivers on my team. I'm now torn between who I start this week, especially between Brady and Vick, as both have the potential to help me keep on winning :D

Son of a...

I prided myself on my receiver core, but now I'm in quite a bind. Knox, S Smith (CAR) and D Jackson are on bye weeks, and Austin Collie is indefinitely sidelined with his thumb surgery, leaving me with my recently acquired Bowe. I need two receivers and have three high quality QBs (Roethlisberger, Brady, Vick). I am almost desperate to scrounge around for some kind of win. Got some good potentials on the waiver line, but it feels like I'm in too deep of a pit to win out and risk losing some good leverage in my line up.

      It won't perform hugely better than the 3080 unless you're VRAM limited in games. Have you tried putting new thermal pads on them 3080 and giving it a good clean to see if you can regain your temps and overclock?

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      Windows 95 offered the ability to add and edit the right click menus, on a per file type basis. This feature seems to be missing in the new file explorer. Are they bringing it back as a "new" feature?

      It's nearly time to replace my aging Founders Edition 3080, it doesn't OC as nicely as it used to and it's running around 10c warmer than it did when I first bought it.  I don't have budget for much more than what I spent on the 3080 and locally, that means the best GPU I can manage is a 9070XT. On this basis I have a few questions: 1. At present I don't use ray tracing, if this was to change, would this GPU be an issue? 2. How does it compare on a performance basis? 3. Are the drivers worse or better than those for nVidia? 4. Linux support, is it there? 5. Anything else I should be aware of if I were to make this change? 6. Is it a good idea or shall I try and keep the 3080 a little longer.

      What OS is that? It looks a bit like Mac OS but the command line suggests it isn't, either way I like it!
