NT Fantasy Basketball league

We have 10 teams now. I'm going to set the draft for tomorrow at noon.

Everyone needs to read the drafting system... I wish we could do a live draft but I didn't want to deal with the headaches of trying to get everyone online at once.

Also... to set the draft order... I have a little plan in mind... I'm going to write down the team names in random order and assign numbers to them. This post will be in the administration logs, so Lyion can verify that I'm not cheating =p. Then, I'll ask someone to write 1 through 10 in random order in a post... I'll copy the draft numbered list into the forum, you'll see the post-time... and we'll know who drafts in what order.

You can edit your draft list in advance... but the default one is pretty good if you don't know the sport. I edited mine for personal beefs... Dirk should have been listed higher, Timmy over KG... Shaq wasn't high enough.. things like that =p.

Get your friends to sign up! There are only 5 spots left!

Ask her about the Washington Bullets, Taxx.

If you two try to build the ultimate team with shady trades, we are going to shoot you down!

Given their posts and the nature of their relationship, I think its more likely your hetero life partner 10sen and you are more of a threat for that, Vonk

Yeah... I'm sure they'll be really competitive.

Although... she doesn't know anything about basketball (right silv?) so... maybe she'll be cool about trading her Jermaine O'Neil pick for my Evan Eshemeir (sp?). It makes sense!

I'm going to laugh when you nab Timmy and he gets hurt in week 1.

As long as I get a top 5 pick I'll be happy.

Being there are 10 of us, I'd say your odds are pretty good.

What'll suck is if you end up with 9 or 10. But then you can make it up in round 2. It evens out somewhat.

I signed up, but I don't know what I am doing, so I am going to be asking lots of questions and researching alot of crap. I will know all about the Washington Bullets by the end of this league, MARK MY WORDS.

You mean the Washington Bullets that were renamed 10 years ago? =P

The Kizzy · Post by **The Kizzy** » Fri Oct 15, 2004 8:46 am

You see, I am learning stuff already. Now where they from the state of Washington, or DC?

Just stick with the default draft list Silv... you'll be fine =p.

If I'm online tomorow at 12 can I draft myself?

vonkaar · Post by **vonkaar** » Fri Oct 15, 2004 4:09 pm

Hey... does everyone want to do an offline draft? We have a good system for doing this... these forums =p.

It would basically be like... everyone picks in order. Silv, Zan, Lyion, Malluas, Taxx etc... they pick by posting in what would be a long thread. It's either that or we use the auto-draft system. I really don't think that we would ever be able to get everyone online in a chatroom at once...

I'll make a poll on it.

Post by **Lyion** » Fri Oct 15, 2004 4:16 pm

You can set up your preferred players in the auto draft.

Either way is fine, Vonk. The manual one might take a long time, though.

vonkaar · Post by **vonkaar** » Fri Oct 15, 2004 4:28 pm

Not if we make time restrictions... I detailed that idea in the poll I just started.

Zanchief · Post by **Zanchief** » Fri Oct 15, 2004 5:38 pm

I want to draft.

Auto-drafting loses so much.

Tadpole · Post by **Tadpole** » Sat Oct 16, 2004 5:59 pm

the Clobbering Cocks are ready to pick.

thanks for email

Zanchief · Post by **Zanchief** » Sat Oct 16, 2004 10:55 pm

Draft is done. I dont know how Fin got Chris Bosh, he must have put him even higher then me.

I still have the best team though.

Wtf..I thought I won the first pick..I put KG as my #1 pick and I ended up with Dirk? WTF is this.
