Crouch Potato Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Any interest in having one for the regular season? Samba's playoff one was good fun, but would obviously need even numbers for this to work. Would need a minimum of 8 people and probably cap entries at 14. If there's enough interest, I'll set up a league on Fleaflicker :ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crouch Potato Posted August 2, 2011 Author Share Posted August 2, 2011 Re: NFL Fantasy I've only played on it for the last half of last season, and not as a commissioner, so there's a fair bit of stuff I'll have to read up on too. (Scoring formats, Starting and Roster sizes etc.) Not sure how drafting will go either. A live draft may or may not be hard to organize, but I know you can make picks on the forum and then just edit those players into the rosters. Think that might be the best option.

Samba_SamPa Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Re: NFL Fantasy Just out of interests, which teams do we all follow? Patriots for me. Reason being I played football (soccer :p) in Maine when I was 10, and had a day trip to Boston to watch the Red Sox. Once I became more aware of the US sports I started to follow all the Boston teams. Would love to get to a Pats v Jets game at Gillette some time. :cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crouch Potato Posted August 8, 2011 Author Share Posted August 8, 2011 Re: NFL Fantasy At this stage I'm going to limit it to 8 players. Otherwise the draft will take too long with not enough time left. The down side is that half the teams will make the play offs. Can expand if there is a sudden rush of interest, though judging by the normal size of this section I'm not convinced. That said I would rather have a smaller league with active players than a large one where everyone fails to do their teams. I've created the league with the name "PL Superbowl I" and the password is "paulross", so for those registered you can join the league now.

If anyone wants to request a specific change to something propose it and we'll see what others think. LIST Crouch P Blackcrow Samba Kevshat AGurv Meatman Where's Taza?

Crouch Potato Posted August 13, 2011 Author Share Posted August 13, 2011 Re: NFL Fantasy Just 1 more needed now. Any more takers?

Crouch Potato Posted August 13, 2011 Author Share Posted August 13, 2011 Re: NFL Fantasy Ill fill the 8th spot. Awesome :clap LIST Crouch P Blackcrow Samba Kevshat AGurv Meatman Taza RB So how does everyone want to do the draft. By my reckoning we have 3 aussies, a yank and the rest Brits, so I think a live draft might be a bit too hard to organize. Is everyone happy just to make their draft picks on here?

Samba_SamPa Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 Re: NFL Fantasy :nana I love the idea of being able to do a live draft with all 8 of us there. Realise the logistics may be tough though. How would we do it on here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crouch Potato Posted August 13, 2011 Author Share Posted August 13, 2011 Re: NFL Fantasy We'd set an order and then people would just submit their pick with a post. Then it goes to the next person. If a person doesn't pick within 24hrs they'll automatically be given the highest ranked undrafted player. That said, though, if everyone is keen to commit to a live draft that works too.

Samba_SamPa Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 Re: NFL Fantasy Only thing is there'll be 15 rounds - so 15 rounds x 24 hours x 8 managers - could take 4 months :loon I think we should explore the live draft possibility... what times and days is everyone able to / unable to make it?

AGurv Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 Re: NFL Fantasy Leave it to the americans to decide everything for the world again Saturday 11 PM Australian time (as long as they live in the east) Saturday 11 AM USA time ( I live in the east) Saturday 4 PM British time I dont mind waking up early and the Brits dont mind drafting while there is soccer (football) going on, that would work perfectly. The Aussies cant go out that Saturday either :). Or we can do it on a Sunday instead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevshat Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 Re: NFL Fantasy Live draft is fine for me too. Would prefer a Sunday rather than a Saturday but I'll have my phone with me on Saturday's so it's no major deal either way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crouch Potato Posted August 15, 2011 Author Share Posted August 15, 2011 Kev the live draft is via the site so I'm not sure if your phone can run it? There's also an email draft option but I think live draft is good. I'll give people another few days to make note of their availability and then will select a time that meets that criteria and we will definitely draft at that time. Right now it is looking like Sunday the 28th 1pm UK time which is 10pm for us Aussies and sometime morning for Agurv. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
