Any chance to bump it to 12. I have another person that would be interested as well in playing.

Goat did you just invent a new word??
 
BTW, will i be able to do half of the draft in person then let yahoo auto draft the rest according to my rankings? I go to work at 1:30pm eastern, which only gives me an hour.
 
If we can get one more person to join is there any objection to making it a 12 team league? I'm a Fantasy Football junkie if you can't tell! :)

Yes, forumittes. (noun; the name of all participants in an online forum; commonly misused and mis spelled. see also; forum-uns; forumees)

You should be able to set it to auto-pick best available accoding to your ranks

And I think we can adjust the total amount of players as long as it occurs before the draft. Like I said I would prefer 12, 10 just makes it too easy to replace good players, less strategy involved.

Yes. As soon as you log-out or lose connection it defaults to auto-pick based on your pre-draft rankings.. even if you lose connection while it's your turn to pick.


edit-
The Goat with the Lantern beat me ;)

We'll have a team chat and see.

Someone could always create a second league too.
 
chrlswltrs said:
How many players are we picking? How many of each position, etc. Do we pick defensive players or just 1 entire defense or just offense? Is all of this on our league page somewhere?

Looking forward to my first fantasy football league! Oh, and it won't just be beginners luck when I win!

You're going to have a blast, you want to target your kicker early cause they routinely go off the board in the first 3 rounds.

PM me if you need anymore tips.

I vote for 12 as well ... 10 teams is just sissy play.

Got it. Can I sign players that I think will play (like Nick Folk) or do they have to be active on a roster? I think someone will pick him up this season and I'd like to grab him right after I get JaMarcus Russell in the first round!
 
OK so for DEF, are we picking 1 player or a team defense? Because I noticed on our league scoring there is points for points allowed. How does that work?
 
Sack 1
Interception 2
Fumble Recovery 2
Touchdown 6
Safety 2
Block Kick 2
Kickoff and Punt Return Touchdowns 6
Points Allowed 0 points 10
Points Allowed 1-6 points 7
Points Allowed 7-13 points 4
Points Allowed 14-20 points 1
Points Allowed 21-27 points 0
Points Allowed 28-34 points -1
Points Allowed 35+ points -4
 
So in short, if your DEF is playing NYJ and the NYJ score 0 points you get 10 points. If NYJ scores 40 points then you get -4 points.

+ all of the bonuses (the best is when someone recovers a fumble and returns it for a TD because that is 8 points in 1 play :) )
 
Alright, if you guys decide 12 is cool just let me know because I would love to join the league.
