It's that time of year again FFL players

It's almost August so figured it's time to get the league started. First I want to give everyone in the league last year a chance to rejoin first then if there are spots open I will open it up to all the Geeks. Again this year we will all be putting up 5 cigars ($7+) and one really nice cigar ($12+). I'm requesting everyone sending me the cigars this year so that I can send them out at the end of the year. Regular season winner gets the ($12) cigars. Winner of the playoffs gets everyone's 5 cigars and 2nd place of the playoffs gets the 5 cigars 1st place put up.

We will again try and do a Online Draft and Google Herf.

LETS PLAN A DRAFT at 9ET Aug 28th -31st  Draft lasts about 1.5 hours or less. Let me know if anyone has an issue.


Gronkman Style (John) (confirmed in)     (Cigars in)
Chief the Whole F'n Show (Ken) (Cigars in)
Redneck Warriors (Jason) (Cigars in)
Toilet Monsters (Brian) (confirmed in)

John Id love to be back in the league if an opening happens

We have one space open. Will open it up for a random number between 1-100 closest wins. I'll shoot each of the 3 guys interested a PM to get a number then I'll do a randomizer 1-100 closest is in.

8pm CST works me as well... is this to late for the East coast guys. Sorry about the West coast guys but I doubt anyone wants it any later.

Thoughts anyone?

jharrisx5

That would be 6pm pacific time... Should work but Monday is bad for me... Maybe Tuesday?

Groovy!  Thanks guys, can't wait!  Hope I didn't just use up all my luck on just getting into the league though.  I'm gonna need it later.

Also, from what I see, Aug 28 at 9est, 8cst works for me.  Unless I missed something where Chuck said 7pm eastern.

Chuck it would be 9EST - 6PST... i know that can be late but we'll be doing a herf so that should soften the blow.

We have our full league and now just need a date.

Cap10_Morgan

I'm thinking Chuck misread and maybe added an hour to where Jason said that would be 6pm pacific thinking it was central.

Quick question... is the scoring setup a default setup?  And has it ever changed?  Going to do some research and look through the archives to see where I need to focus for draft, etc.

johncw

It's not exactly a default but the scoring is pretty close. I think the big change is in the positions which are not exactly standard. Should all be displayed in the settings...

Typically since we do an online draft we let the site randomly pick the draft order right before the draft starts, but I guess if enough people want to know ahead of time then we can draft an order and I can enter it in.

Yeah, I found the settings, thanks.   Just wasn't sure if those were default... like how much I should take advise of "experts" to heart if our settings are different, that kind of thing.  Haven't been able to play the last few years cause all my friends are giant bags of douche and flaked out on me.  So I'm just trying to do my research and be prepared, lol.

 

I don't necessarily need to know what order the draft is in that early.  Would just put a "plan" together that would never end up working anyway.

I was a little confused from the email it said we are doing the draft Tues the 27th...I went to look and it's Tues the 29th or Sunday the 27th. So just need a little clarification if I missed it I apologize, Sunday would work better for me, if it's Tuesday lll figure something out but just wondering since I was confused. Thanks!

Yeah, I responded to the email message pointing that out.  Based on the rest of the people that posted, I was assuming it was Tues the 29th, but no real clue.  Personally, I can make anything work with enough notice... although I would like Tuesday over Sunday simply due to Sundays being "Game of Throne nights" with the wife right now, lol.   

When are cigars due?  I know John wants everyone to send them to him first.  I don't have a lot of cigars in my inventory that meet the criteria, so I ordered some just for this.  Unfortunately, some are on backorder, but they aren't the most rare cigars or anything, so assume it will only be a couple week delay.

 And 1 last thing... saw the OP updated and it said "Cap10_Morgan - Brian" and assume its just because I took Brians spot when he dropped.  No biggie, but just to avoid confusion, I'm Jeff.

So, when is the draft, and what time? The email I received said it starts at 9pm cst, but I'm not available until around 9:30 cst. I'll be drafting from work, and sometimes we don't close on time...can't tell folks to put out their cigars and leave!!

I was planning on Tuesday Aug 29th at 8CST... Nirab you can't do that date? Can you do another other days that week at 8CST? I don't want to make it any later than that because of the guys on the East Coast.

Cap10_Morgan

I can make it anytime.  (Again, as long as there is notice, like there is now)

As I put in the email. The draft will be Aug 29th Tuesday at 9:30EST-6:30PST.  Looking to figure out how to do the draft order so it's transparent to everyone.
