We've been noodling this one around quite a bit.  We're trying to allow everyone that wants to participate into the league while maintaining balance.  It'll ultimately come down to final size....2, 14s is already out of the question since we're currently sitting at 37 owners.  We're going to stay patient to see if anyone else wants to join.  Not really interested in doing just 2 divisions at this point as that'll be too deep for this group. 

The most likely scenarios will be 3/12s if we lose a guy, 3/13s if we gain 2 more, or 4/10s if we gain 3.   The 12s and 13s will be the healthier player pool and the 10s will require some tweaks to scoring.  Each option will be fine for weekly matchups but we'll have to think carefully about playoff format.

Nice! all of those options seem solid.

...that's going to be one heckuva golden ticket!

So the 29th is the day? Works out perfect if so, I have my other draft the following day.

I will be in the air flying home the evening of the 29th so can't do the draft then.  If we are sitting on 37 teams at go time I can sit this one out to keep it an even number.  Just let me know what works?

If there’s 3 divisions it would be kind of cool to see playoffs within the division and then a 3 way battle for the super bowl. That would work best if the divisions (or at least the best teams) are pretty evenly spread, which I know a lot comes down to owners at that point.

A lot of guys on autodraft last year.... you can preset a list and it will just keep going down the list and pick whoever hasn't been taken.

With this many people there will be plenty that can't make the date/time no matter what we pick.

I'd prefer to be there to make real time game changing decisions on the fly as I scour the injury reports and the pissed of Goodell reports.  Drug and sex abuse suspensions can happen at any time as well and don't forget about hold outs and bye week strategy.  However, I am totally fine doing it this way.  Thanks for the heads up.

Thanks for offering to fall on the sword but we're not looking to kick anyone out.  All I'm getting at there is we have one returning player left to confirm in/out.

Sweet...I was hoping to show my dominance at being a fake GM.

Hey all, my promotion is on the 29th and I’ll have a bunch of family in town so there’s no way I can make it. And I’m not a fan of playing an auto draft team so I’m going to have to bow out. Good luck to everyone playing this year!

[StrokerAce 11,262]

Not sure the date (29th) is set in stone yet.... @GolfSpy STUDque @Undershooter

... do we have an official draft date?

No. We've just been talking about it. The 29th is kind of late tbh. I know you guys wanna wait deep into preseason, but there was a big issue with the draft last year that caused us to need a redraft after that first Thursday game. We're trying to prepare against the issue by having it earlier.

As long as it isn’t the 22nd I’m good with any night

How about the 17th? A good Saturday night after a few preseason games? Or 24/25th?

 

I'm also out the 29th. Flight won't get me home till after 10pm EST. 

 

Edit: maybe just make a poll?

One of the few perks working M-F 8-5, I can make any draft after supper time

Going to a Braves-Dodgers game on the 17th. Other than that I'm good. I can draft on my phone in the stands if I have too. Lol

[TSauer 4,156]

Any week night should work for me, I get home from work around 6:30cst.

[Shankster 26,371]

There’s A New Hope...

Rather a Shankster Striking Back....

Guess I’ll pick up Tim Tebow first round...

[STUDque 11,887]

Ok let's get our first vote out of the way. I've added a poll to this thread  with options for the draft date. This includes a primary date followed by a makeup date (in case we break it) one week later. The poll is multiple choice so please vote for every one that you can do. 

 

For reference, week one begins on Sep 5

[blackngold_blood 4,656]

My votes are in. The 23rd and 24th are a definite no for me. I have a wedding on the 24th and a rehearsal on the 23rd. Those are the only 2 nights I can’t change something around to make work.
