I'm in Aruba until Saturday and do not want to draft from my tablet. Much harder to use multi screens and the keyboard takes up half the screen. Plus the earliest I'm available this Thursday is 10pm.

Sunday or any day there after is fine.

oh man if whodat gets in combined with you I dunno how I'm gonna steal the Saints D

btw I paid

Like I said I'd give them until the 22nd (move it up to the 20th, screw it...if you committed to joining a $500 league and need more than 3 days to pay because you didn't check the thread then you deserve to be bounced) or so and if anyone hasn't paid by then grog and whodat are replacing them

Confirmed, payment received

Sunday night is after the 3rd batch of preseason games as well so incase anyone gets injured in those games people will know by then. Hopefully that date is a good fit for everyone

If Yahoo Randomly selects the draft order like Chop said, then that's the route we should go in my opinion.

What's the official decision on the player format?

So the payouts are as follows correct?:

1st: $3,000
2nd: $1500
3rd: $1,000
Best Record: $500





i like this




So everyone ok with this payout?

Why don't we split the 500 between reg season 1st place and reg season high point?
Or better-take 500 from end of season 1st or 3rd to pay reg season high point.

High point person has shown the most "skill" IMO but could easily get hosed in the playoffs.

Yeah Falls had the right payout structure and I think that is what Chop was saying he liked.

I know that is what I like.

I don't see a problem with splitting it.

One thing I'm not in favor of is paying $500 to the best record AND $500 to the one with the most points.

It's possible you could be paying the same guy not only BOTH of the things above, as well as placing 1st, 2nd, or 3rd.

Yes a guy with the best record and/or most points could get knocked off in the 1st round, but he could also do just the opposite and roll everybody all the way through...

How about just giving 1K to total points

So 3k-1500-500 as people place then 1k to total pts winner...or 750 to total pts winner and 250 to 2nd place total pts winner

It's only my opinion that we only commit $500 to either best record, or most points.

I think almost all of the prize pool should go to a guy who places 3rd (or 1st/2nd) for working his butt off making roster moves & such, to get to get to the playoffs.

Again, only my opinion :toast:

Yeah but the guys winning the most pts are working their butt off too and did a better job. They should be rewarded for having the best team from beginning to end....

If I had to choose, I would go with most points...Not Best Record

But I have the same opinion as TheDude earlier in this thread when he pointed out that he's in this league to win serious dough.

Of course I wouldn't mind getting my fee back in the end but I'm not in this for a full season just to try to win my $500 back in 3rd place lol.

Either way whatever the majority is I'm just happy we all got together to make this happen! :)

Draft Date - Sunday seems to work for everyone.
that being said, due to Yahoo filling up, the only option we had was 10:30 PM - i know this is late.
Let me know if this doesnt work, we'd need to find a date closer to start of season (like the Tuesday before games start)

Rosters - i updated to 3 WR

Payouts - i like what we did last year, 3K, 1500, 1000, then 500 for best record
