I have not set a draft date yet.. I will try and sit down this week and get this thing started.. I apologize for my slacking. 8 people have quite at work this month so it's been pretty busy for me lately. Firerat i'm sending you a PM..
Is there anything we need to do on the league site to confirm we are in for this season?
I like the new roster changes as well, should make it interesting.

Alright I have scrubbed the list of who sent they beers and who didn't. I have a total of 12 participating teams.. So, I think we will scrape everyone and sit at 12. 11 total beer packages sent and 1 champion. I'm having troubles crossing the Fantasy Football names versus their HBT names. So help me out.. Also the rooster has been changed. Additional bonus scores added. I still need ideas for the draft date. I want to say last year the draft was the sunday before pre-season started. So it maybe on August 3rd, 2014 11 am EST if no objections.

To mix the pot a little bit and have fun.. I have this going on as well if anyone wants to join... There will be no beer exchanges in this league.. It will have reverse scoring .. So this is for those of you who say they pick the worst team or their teams sucks the big one.. It's your time to shine!! So, pick your worst prospects and Pray for fumbles and intersecptions!
Draft will be on the same day as the regular draft August 3rd but at 2:00pm EST.

Glad to see this back up and running! Few things I would like to point out after going over the updated league settings:
1. Rosters are currently set to 1 QB, 1 RB, 1 WR, 1 TE, 1 Flex (QB/RB/WR/TE; QB flex is kinda weird), 1 K, 1 D/ST, 4 Bench.
2. D/ST are currently getting +3 points for ALLOWING 500+ total yards against them. Silly bonus for sucking
3. Interception return yards set at 1 point for every 10 yards, but it's for Individual defensive players (which we don't use).
4. I'd enable fractional scoring, it all but eliminates ties. There's no reason not to have it.
5. I still am pushing for waivers not resetting in inverse order of the standings after every week. This way there's an incentive to not use waiver claims like a brain-dead monkey and it rewards those who hold on to a high waiver claim.
Aside from that, I'd advise everyone to look over the settings for themselves since a lot of "bonuses" have been added.

Okay, I can try and salvage this but I'm going to need you guys to help me a bit.
I really have no idea what I'm doing, but it seems pretty self explanatory.
First, of the 12 players listed on the previous page, I have been able to identify 8:
Beer pressure
Eskimo Bros
Grandpa's warriors
Reel Ale
We dangerous
Shennagins
High Krausen
Firerat
I can drop all of the other teams unidentified. I have the technology!! LOL
Can we do this with 8 people? Do we want to? Does anyone want out that is on the list?
Next, what do you guys want me to change in terms of rules and whatnot? What needs to be set up or changed? I'll do it, but you guys need to help me out a bit.
If I can't iron this out by tomorrow afternoon, then I think I'm jumping ship.
Sound good?

I'm totally down to do it.
I just want to do it right.
So 8 people sounds doable?
What else should I change? Some of the scoring and whatnot seems a bit odd.
Any suggestions?

Okay, it's an 8 team league:
beer pressure
Eskimo Bros
Gandpa's warriors
Reel Ale
We DangeRuss
Shenanigans
High Krausen
Firerat
We can take up to 4 more teams but I need to know by today, 5PM Eastern time.
If anyone wants to drop, let me know by 5PM eastern time or you are committed.
Next step, lets get the rules and scoring and all of that corrected.....
Bear with me.
I'm going to change a few things and post the changes here.
If I don't get any objections to changes by tomorrow, let's say 2 PM Eastern, they will be set in stone. If you have a suggestion, please post it here.

If it's too much work for you in such a short time I can have a league set up today & hopefully everyone can join by this Sunday (if we still plan on having the draft the 3rd). We could always push it back to next weekend too
As far as suggestions I would change all scoring back to standard/defaults and set rosters at QB,RB,RB,WR,WR,TE,Flex,K,D/ST with 6 bench spots and call it good :rockin:

Seconded
Is there an easy way to set back to default settings? If so I'll do that and we can be golden.
The only thing I can't do is move the draft date. I think the league manager needs to do that.
EDIT:
Acyr90, if you could start a new one we are better off.
I'm down for a draft next weekend so long as it's not on Sunday past 5 PM eastern.
I'm going to a NIN concert.

No problem, I'm off today so I'll be able to get it up and running (and hopefully filled) by tonight.
I'm more comfortable with league settings on Yahoo so I'll be setting it up there. Unfortunately, Yahoo made it so you can only invite people via email so I need everyone to PM me their emails.
Once again, PM me your emails and I'll send you all an invite. I'll try and shoot everyone who send beer a PM to let them know of the changes so they can get signed up.
Edit: Maybe not, try this link
https://yho.com/nfl?l=419736&k=c254cced32038c50
I'm in!!
I am, I went through all my PMs with shipping info to make sure those guys got an invite. About to go back through all the beers I posted to try and track everybody down.
Here's the league link for those who may have missed it the first time:

What time is the draft on Sunday CST? First Yahoo told me 11 now it's telling me 9.
It says 12 PM eastern for me.
