I’ll run it back. My only request is if this draft day/time is solid then no last minute changes. I think the time of the draft was changed at the last minute last year
 
I'd venture to say that even as the guy who floated the idea of a change, if we're already at Wednesday and nobody is pushing for a change, we should be locked in stone now. I'll be there and see you all.

I do still wish we'd get a draft order in advance though.
 
I'm not pushing for any changes. Let's roll.

Personally, I don't need an advanced draft order. It can be a hassle for the commish, since he would need to go to a random list generator and enter the results on nfl.com, and for those that have not committed yet may not agree with the draft order and decide that they don't want to play, then we would need to come up with a solution.

Yes, it would be good to prepare better if we knew what our pick was, but we would all be on equal ground if we did not know until 30 minutes before the draft (if that makes any sense)

Is there a way to easily share the rules/buy in/payout? If not, no worries.
The rules can be found on the league's website..

There isn't a 'buy in' but if you are in 3rd through last place, you need to ship beer.

With the payout, noting is really set in stone but I believe that the minimum is a 22 oz. bomber of commercial beer.
Most of us would send about 6-8 singles of different sizes (i.e. 16 oz., an occasional bomber, 12oz cans, etc...)

As @betarhoalphadelta pointed out in post# 807...
  • 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'm in, so long as there are no last minute changes to the draft again.

Can't guarantee that I will be there tomorrow, but I'd rather not have to scramble only to miss it as happened last year.
My goal is to never change it from the last preseason game!

I appreciate this and everyone that helps keep conversations moving!! @TheDudeLebowski I will send you the info to sign up. It is pretty much standard ppr, I believe the only difference is we have 3wr slots. Any other questions feel free to ask.

Also 0.5 points to a passer per completion.

Helps to rebalance the value of passing quarterbacks as fantasy scoring usually overweights QBs who run a lot.

I don't know who originally set it up that way but I personally like it lol...

Waaaait a minute. It sounds like a lot of thought is being put into this 😃
 
my wife might kill me for joining another league but I’ll try to do some reading through the thread tonight. When’s the latest to let you know. Tomorrow morning?
Thank you for considering joining us. It looks like @TBC just confirmed his spot just before you responded.

If you and @_BullDog_ are interested I can see if everyone wants to bump to 14.

Anyone opposed to more beer and more difficulty??

It’s all good on my end, I was probably going to need to pass anyway.

What, were you told there would be no math? 😂

Well, I'm in that insane 20-team league again this year, so I'm cool with whatever we end up with lol...
 
Where do we stand @lupulinaddict ? It looks like:

I can be in again and will ship soon for last year.

If someone else wants my spot that is fine as well

We are at 12. My apologies to @_BullDog_ , we were getting too close to draft day and needed to fill the league before we had your commitment. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like we will get a fourteenth in time to give everyone enough notice about the expansion. I think we will have to fit you in next season.

See everyone later today. Good luck in the draft!
 
Whoa. What a difference a day makes. I’d be cool with a 14 person league if we have the people. I didn’t think we’d even get 12!
I am fine as well, need another player and maybe 50%+ votes to do it.

Honestly though, I'd hate to do it this close to draft and have someone feel that they were unaware and unprepared?
Personally, I am fine with it too. I don't prepare anymore, and my performance the last few years will reflect those choices!
