Junkhead's IE fantasy football thread

Junkhead · Aug 19, 2012

This will hopefully be a season-long thread. Smack-talking, trades, updates, etc, whatever. Live draft is set for next Sunday August 26th @ 8:30 EDT. I already have one team who will miss the draft. I thought about moving it to a week day a few days later, or just later the same evening. Any thoughts are welcome. Official draft time will have to be set by Weds this week or so. For now I'm thinking about moving it back a bit the same night. Thoughts?

Irish Insanity · Aug 19, 2012

I will not be available that evening from about 4 till just about the time the draft starts. My vote, if it needs to be moved, would be to a different day or prior to 4.

Is a weekday better? I'm thinking some of us can't do late on a weekday, but starting by 2 on a sunday during the summer might leave quite a few out. How about Monday the 27th at 9pm EST? The later it gets, the less draft options are available, so anyone who doesnt like next Sunday night let me know ASAP.

BobD · Aug 19, 2012

I"m at work or commuting Tuesday thru Saturday from 7:00am to 8:00pm PST, so I can only do the draft on Sundays or Mondays.

UPMich_NDfan · Aug 19, 2012

Sunday is not great for me as I'm drafting in another league at 9 that night. I could do it but it would be tough

Junkhead · Aug 19, 2012

It is very doubtful all 14 teams will be able to be live at the same time, probable draft is still Monday the 27th at 9 EST or so. Comments, suggestions still welcome.

Draft is now Monday August 27th at 9pm EDT.

Urg. Second weekend in a row that I hustled home to make a scheduled draft only to find out it has been moved. This one is certainly my fault because apparently it was moved about a week ago. I don't think I'll be able to draft tomorrow, since I have a draft for one of my money leagues scheduled for the same time. Wish I had caught this earlier.

May I suggest that next time there is a change of this nature, it should be posted on the league page so that I get an email about it and don't have to rely on being on IE at the exact time that it is being discussed?

Sorry for the confusion. I did post the change on the league page, not sure why everyone wasn't alerted. Next time, we may have to have a poll to see which day works best for the most people. The money league should take priority, but I've done two at the same time before. (it's not easy though!)

I'm going to give it a shot. At the very least I will set up my own draft board on yahoo so I don't end up with [a roster I hate] (had names of guys I don't want typed here, but decided not to mess with the draft by putting them out there).

Anyway, not your fault. I just overlooked your announcements.

Cricker24 · Aug 27, 2012

I thought the draft was today at 4pm!! I had no idea it was last Wednesday at 11pm. It wouldn't have mattered anyway since I never would have made 11pm. Sorry I missed the draft.

Chris

Ps. This was the Irish Envy draft, right?

Our draft is tonight, I'm not sure when the other league did their draft?

Junkhead · Aug 27, 2012

Tonight at 9pm!

BobD · Aug 27, 2012

Well I'm off to do my very first Fantasy Football draft at 6pm. I've done some research and 5 mock drafts to prepare....wish me luck!

I'll post my team later and you experts can critique it.

Rhode Irish · Aug 27, 2012

Draft is not loading for me. Anyone else having trouble?

Irish Insanity · Aug 27, 2012

I cant get in either

The Polish Irishman · Aug 27, 2012

Cant get in

Junkhead · Aug 27, 2012

Same here. No idea why, will check and move time back 30 min and try a few things.

Rhode Irish · Aug 27, 2012

Annnd now I have a roster full of players I hate? Anyone know what happened here?

Rhode Irish · Aug 27, 2012

Using yahoo is easy, which is why I do it. But yahoo is honestly the worst. It is amateur hour over there all the time. Nothing ever works right.

Rhode Irish · Aug 27, 2012

Annnnd now I don't have any players again. Nice! Haha

Irish Insanity · Aug 27, 2012

Hell I just keeping getting a message saying the league isn't dradfting at this time.

Junkhead · Aug 27, 2012

It was set for live draft, but autodrafted. I wiped results out and am looking for a new draft time, but none is available until 11:30 tonight WTF??

UPMich_NDfan · Aug 27, 2012

*edit again!

Junkhead · Aug 27, 2012

There isnt anything available between 6 and 11 until Friday night. Yahoo is pissing me off. Any ideas?
