Re: How to speed up a "slow draft"?

I hear you... Lesson learned. But we are going at a good clip, and will likely let them pick two players at a time from half way on.

Re: How to speed up a "slow draft"?

The problem with this other leagues is that many of the managers came from ESPNs message boards, and don't really know dynasty or slow drafts.

And this isn't a standard setting 12 teamer. We got 16 teams, Superflex, start 3 RBs, 3 WRs, one WR/TE, deep benches...

Appreciate the kind words, Brian.

Re: How to speed up a "slow draft"?

Btw, had an owner bail after two rounds. He sent the following message to everyone. FYI, he also is wrong in that I merely sent notice to another manager that he had about 3 hours left (and he promptly submitted his pick). No one clocked out. -------------------- Sorry, but I don't have the time to ...

Re: Introducing "The Beer League" (FULL)

Just had someone drop out after an epic meltdown. He was frustrated that the 432 pick slow draft was taking too long... And we have been doing one round per day! Anyway, Coors Light is available. See current draft results below: 1.01 - Moosehead Lager - Aaron Rodgers 1.02 - Heineken - Lesean McCoy 1...

Re: Josh Gordon gets off on technicality?

My prediction is that Gordon gets a full season ban, with a review half-way through. If he keeps his nose clean, he will be able to get reinstated for the 2nd half.

Re: Josh Gordon gets off on technicality?

Most organizations have corporate/ethics rules that go beyond state/federals laws. Whether its drug use or dating a colleague, lots of legal stuff is prohibited.

Re: How to speed up a "slow draft"?

Indeed. I've got one league on MFL... And for this type of draft, it probably would make sense to use MFL regardless of whether the league would end up on ESPN or not. but I sorted threw it together last minute and didn't want to hassle everyone with signing up to ESPN and MFL... But that was probab...

Re: How to speed up a "slow draft"?

Two issues with a quicker clock. First, we are doing this on ESPN, so there's no actual timer. Just the time-stamp on the message board post. Also, we have managers spread across multiple time zones, including at least a couple in Europe, so we need an 8 hour window to ensure that no one sleeps thro...

Re: Josh Gordon gets off on technicality?

There are certain things which can be banned/prohibited and certain things which cannot (race gender age religious beliefs etc). Sometime ago, some douchebag challenged Hooters hiring policy on such grounds and gave them a real headache. Think they settled knowing few would take the same route.

How to speed up a "slow draft"?

We just started drafting in my newest league creation, "The Beer League". Since it's a 16 teamer with 27 slots to fill, it means the draft consists if no less than 432 picks. We are posting on a league message board. And there's a 8 hour timer. This morning, was thinking of ways to speed u...

Re: 2 very active and experienced owners looking for startup

The Beer League has two openings left. It is free, has no IDPs and the slow draft will start very soon (like maybe as early as tomorrow).

See listing in this forum for further info.
