NT Fantasy Football Draft

No, my problem is that tuesday and thursday I have night classes. They start at 10 or so eastern time. As I said before as of August 23rd, tuesday and thursday nights are impossible for me, unless I skip class, which I'd REALLY prefer not to do.

I'm cool with pretty much whenever, as long as it's posted well in advance

If you are too busy, I'll draft for you. I will just load up your team with Niners.

I had a feeling it would be on that day since my money league is holding their draft on the same day. But this one is at 1 PM EST.

I don't see any reason why I wont be able to make it home on time, but is there any way if Im running late that day (its a 30 min to 1 hour drive to the draft location), I can contact you Xaivier and push it back to 9 PM?

Xaiveir · Post by **Xaiveir** » Mon Aug 07, 2006 4:32 pm

Generally Drafts run late anyway. Also if you miss your first round, its going to be about 20-30 min from the beggining of a round to the end of one, you can then pickup the draft at that point.

I cant gaurantee postponing it, once the draft date is set (tonight) you cant change it. So make all efforts to be there, ill be on my computer the majority of that day so contact me and I can see what i can do for you Griever.

Xaiveir · Post by **Xaiveir** » Mon Aug 07, 2006 4:35 pm

Another option is that i draft for you. When you or anyones time to draft comes up i believe that i will be able to draft in your stead. If someone needs it, ill give you my cell number and you can tell me who to draft for you np np.

Minrott · Post by **Minrott** » Mon Aug 07, 2006 9:53 pm

Or you can rank say, 50 players. That should autopick for you for the first 1 or 2 rounds if you aren't going to be right on time.

Griever · Post by **Griever** » Mon Aug 07, 2006 10:42 pm

I think exchanging cell phone numbers might be a good idea.

I'll PM you with my cell number that weekend.

Xaiveir · Post by **Xaiveir** » Tue Aug 08, 2006 2:19 pm

Ok small problem with the draft date. When i submitted it for sunday the 27th...the only available draft time was at 6 am EST......yeah. So i changed it to the following sunday September 3rd at 8:30 EST. Was one of the only available times on a sunday. So again....Draft date is........

September 3rd at 8:30 EST.

For those who were thinking of picking Portis, he dislocated his shoulder and is out indefinitely.

Griever · Post by **Griever** » Mon Aug 14, 2006 4:47 pm

He'll be back by week one npnp

Post by **Arlos** » Mon Aug 14, 2006 6:11 pm

I still wish we could change the date on this. I'm not gonna be able to attend more than a couple rounds on that date.

*sigh*

Hey, what's the draft order?

-Arlos

Harrison · Post by **Harrison** » Thu Aug 17, 2006 11:56 am

I fucked with the pre-draft rankings ahead of time just in case.

I still don't know exactly how that system works.

Tikker · Post by **Tikker** » Thu Aug 17, 2006 11:57 am

i call dibs on 1st overall omg

Xaiveir · Post by **Xaiveir** » Thu Aug 17, 2006 12:35 pm

Draft order is random. It is determined at the start of the draft or maybe a day before. Yahoo automatically does it.

As far as the pre ranking players go.....

Basically you rate the guys that you want the most, or you feel would be the best impact for your team. Rank them 1-1000 if you want. When its your time to draft, and you are not online it automatically drafts the highest rated player that you selected on your list. The downside to pre ranking is what happened to me acouple of years ago on a baseball draft.

I was unable to attend the draft and i thought you ranked players by position. Well it came up that i rated the entire league of catchers as my 1-24 picks. So yeah every pick i picked a catcher.......

Good side was that everyone wanted to trade something for one :hiphop:
