From what was posted, I made draft day Sept 2nd. Added another WR to the roster. Sent out an invite to replace lonetree. Under the customize draft setting I can manually enter draft order, or they had an option to randomize order. I choose to randomize there, go ahead and check on your end if it shows up.

Awesome, thanks!

Looks good!

And I went from 1.11 last year to 1.02 this year... MUCH different slate of choices there lol.

 

[pshankstar]

Thanks @lupulinaddict for adding me to the group. I’m looking forward to it!
Now I need to look back at what the rules are and what not.

 

[TBC]

Package received from @gromitdj Thanks, can’t wait to try them all!

 

[Spundit]

Here is my official notice: I'm in again this year.

I know we talked about changing the payout last year. What did we settle on?

 

[betarhoalphadelta]

I know we talked about changing the payout last year. What did we settle on?

Here's what we did last year:

• 9 players ship beer to the champion
• 1 player ships beer to the runner-up
• 3rd place consolation playoff game, the winner decides who they are to ship to, and 4th place ships to the other--this allows for the winner to potentially save on shipping costs, i.e. if I take 3rd, and @gromitdj takes 1st or 2nd, I'd rather meet him for a beer at a local brewery for the payoff and not be on the hook for shipping at all (as we did 2 seasons ago) than ship cross-country

 

[pshankstar]

I just realized I’ll be camping with the family this weekend. I’ll make sure to setup my draft queue since I’ll probably be out of cell service during that time.

 

[TallDan]

I finally shipped today. Sure hope I was the last one.

Looks like we have an odd number of teams. Any hopes of another joining?

I sent a message out to @Wrendelar (he asked in a message) on Saturday….I’ll give him a bit longer to respond, if not @VirginiaHops1 said he wants in. I need to message him to be on standby, I’ll do that next.

 

[TallDan]

Yikes. Just noticed that the draft for my other league starts 30min after this one. Uh, anyone open to moving this one up a couple hours?

 

[lupulinaddict]

I’m open to move it as long as everyone responds. Back is safer than forward in case someone misses the memo. It looks like I didn’t catch the time zone when I set it. The phone app is set on local time and I assumed logging in from the computer would keep my account settings, but that would be too convenient in 2023.

 

[TallDan]

Certainly don’t expect it to move for me, but it would help out.

 

[pshankstar]

I’m just the new guy here but I’m ok with pushing it out given it’s Labor Day weekend.

 

[betarhoalphadelta]

It's easier for me if it's moved earlier Saturday than later. We've got Tallarin Saltado con Carne on the menu and we have never made this recipe, so 2:30 PM PT is perfect as we'll get done long before we need to start prepping and cooking. However if it moves later I can deal.

Sunday is bad for me though.

Could do Monday if people are free, but I'm antisocial so all I have planned is going to lunch with my wife and then making molasses-mustard glazed pork shank for dinner, not planning on going to a BBQ lol. I'm assuming many others have plans that day.

Moving farther out puts us at Tuesday or Wednesday after work, so 6 PM PT / 9 PM ET for the West Coast to be sure we're available.

 

[Chorgey]

I’m fine with moving the time (or date) but only on Saturday or Monday

 

[gromitdj]

Anytime Saturday or Monday is OK for me.

 

[Chorgey]

Saturday is best for me. Sounds like we are headed to the Jersey Shore on Monday. It’s supposed to be a scorcher

 

[VirginiaHops1]

Thanks for the invite boys. I joined the league the other day. Looking forward to it

Time is fine with me. I have a live draft at 2pm EDT tomorrow at my house with a bunch of my buddies so I'll be feeling pretty good around 5:30. Any terrible picks I make I'm blaming on that

 

[lupulinaddict]

Seems like an hour and half up gives everyone a couple hours to work? 1 west coast, 4 east coast?

 

[TallDan]

If we’re going to move it, the sooner the better. Give everyone some official warning through the app.

 

[lupulinaddict]

Draft time is moved forward 1.5 hours!!

 

[betarhoalphadelta]

Is that too early for @VirginiaHops1 ?

I can work with it, but if we're keeping it make sure there's an email / PMs here / text messages / smoke signals so everyone gets the memo.

I was hoping that would give him two hours and dan two hours to work with.

Agreed. If anyone has text available to anyone in the league please do so. I am afraid someone will miss the message. I sent through the app hoping that would be an email or notification, but still takes someone picking up their phone!

 

[betarhoalphadelta]

I never got an email, so I just sent one. Recommend you PM everyone in the league here on HBT as well.

Don't want people to miss the info and get the year off to a rough start b/c someone didn't know the draft was moved.

I sent one through hbt for those that have not responded.

 

[Thorrak]

Well, ****. Wish there was at least a days notice here - definitely looking at auto draft now.

 

[troglodytes]

I'll try to make it, but I'm not sure I can do the earlier time

 

[_BullDog_]

What is the password for the league?

 

[Chorgey]

I got the memo and will be there.

@_BullDog_ I sent the league password to you in a 'conversation'

 

[lupulinaddict]

Thanks @Chorgey


Hopefully we can all swing the time change. I apologize for having to adjust the start time. It was a last minute effort to try and get more people involved in the draft.

 

[_BullDog_]

Thank you. See you all in a couple hours

 

[Thorrak]

Yeah, unfortunately I can’t do the last minute time change, so I’m going to have to drop out. Sorry guys.

 

[gromitdj]

Glad I logged in this morning. LOL

 

[Thorrak]

Glad I logged in this morning. LOL

Yeah.

 

[gromitdj]

I'm still in, but I might be a straight auto-draft.

 

[troglodytes]

Oh no. I think with NFL.com you can still set all your preferred picks for auto draft, it's still better than fleaflicker in that way.

I might have been able to had I known before this morning, but I found out as we were walking into the US Open. Timing just sucks sadly.

 

[TBC]

Package received from @TallDan today. Thanks for the great package. Dark Lord was one of my unicorns I’ve been waiting to try for about 7-8 years. The 2 beer on the left are homebrew, a session IPA and a stout.

 

[pshankstar]

My view as we draft.
