_Laurie_ Posted March 22, 2015 Report Posted March 22, 2015 My team is The Badfingers....Now what do I do?
phil Posted March 22, 2015 Report Posted March 22, 2015 Great. Let's do this. We'll miss Carole and Kevin. They are good at this.
_Laurie_ Posted March 22, 2015 Report Posted March 22, 2015 My team is called The Badfingers, but I see it says I have another Team called LaurieTeam2?...I should only have one team, right? Not sure why it says I have two.
_Laurie_ Posted March 22, 2015 Report Posted March 22, 2015 Okay I fixed it....I think...I'm messing up already...
CanAm Posted March 22, 2015 Author Report Posted March 22, 2015 Welcome back, Ron! You're not messing up Laurie, since you figured out how to rectify the error. It will seem odd not to have Kevin and Carole on boared this year, since they both know their baseball. I just created a head-to-head league this year, but if there is enough interest, we can always add a points league.
Rayzor Posted March 22, 2015 Report Posted March 22, 2015 No worries Laurie. It's just cuz the league remembers your previous team name. Happened to me one year. I was worried too Delete the old team. It'll go away & your fantasy account will be replaced with your new team name. It's silly but I guess it's supposed to be more "convenient" for people playing every year. Less set-up.
_Laurie_ Posted March 22, 2015 Report Posted March 22, 2015 Thank guys...I remember playing the points league last time. I do not know about the head to head league at all.
Rayzor Posted March 22, 2015 Report Posted March 22, 2015 Other than playing directly against 1 SFer at a time it's about the same. Just keep your line-up set up for the teams playing & players who are active that day (you'll find that moving pitchers around is the majority of movent) Just trying to beat the other team is the goal. Other teams pts don't matter except your opponent for the week.
Rayzor Posted March 22, 2015 Report Posted March 22, 2015 no problem-o I think "Big Shot" is in. My Yahoo is acting funny. Hope it worked
_Laurie_ Posted March 22, 2015 Report Posted March 22, 2015 I want David Wright on my team...so who has him?... I want him.
Rayzor Posted March 22, 2015 Report Posted March 22, 2015 If you're at the SF draft in 2 days then you can just pick him. If you won't be taking part in the draft then edit your "auto-draft" list so the Yahoo draft will pick him for you (unless someone else drafts him ahead of you). If someone else takes him then you'll have to trade & now that everyone knows you "want him!" they'll make you give up a great player! Actually, I don't think anyone would be that cruel
CanAm Posted March 22, 2015 Author Report Posted March 22, 2015 Want to bet? :frenchie: Don't let Laurie's apple pie demeanour fool you Ray. She is a baseball shark. Completely and utterly ruthless. The last time she played, she beat our brains out.
CanAm Posted March 22, 2015 Author Report Posted March 22, 2015 For all you East Coast Songfactors I apologize for the late hour of the draft. If you want, I can try to move it back an hour. Laurie, if you don't plan to participate in the live draft, I encourage you to edit your pre-draft rankings. You can create a list of preferred players, like David Wright. It will improve your chances of getting the players you want. Again, if you would like to live draft and the draft hour is too late, I can change the hour. For that matter, I can change the day also. If I don't hear from anyone, I'll leave the draft as it is. Mind you, the auto draft worked fine for Phil last year. I just like to draft myself because I don't always agree with Yahoo's player rankings.
phil Posted March 23, 2015 Report Posted March 23, 2015 Choo Choo is in. I've never done a live draft before. Do I just log in on Tuesday at 7?
_Laurie_ Posted March 23, 2015 Report Posted March 23, 2015 Okay I edited it since I will be at work and won't be able to do the live draft.
_Laurie_ Posted March 23, 2015 Report Posted March 23, 2015 Want to bet? :frenchie: Don't let Laurie's apple pie demeanour fool you Ray. She is a baseball shark. Completely and utterly ruthless. The last time she played, she beat our brains out. :cuttie:
Rayzor Posted March 23, 2015 Report Posted March 23, 2015 Choo Choo is in. I've never done a live draft before. Do I just log in on Tuesday at 7? I haven't done live draft in a lifetime, but if I remember right show up about 10-15 minutes early to be on the safe side.
CanAm Posted March 23, 2015 Author Report Posted March 23, 2015 Choo Choo is in. I've never done a live draft before. Do I just log in on Tuesday at 7? Phil, what time zone are you in? I'm in the mountain time zone, so, for me, the draft begins at 8 my time. If you are on the east coast, the draft won't begin until 10 pm. Since not everyone will be doing the live draft, the draft should take about 45 minutes. Make sure your computer has the appropriate software to allow you to live draft. My tablet doesn't have the right software, so I have to draft on my desktop or my son's laptop. If you want to find to find out if your computer is compatible, you can run a test or do a mock draft on Yahoo. Ray is right. Just go to the league about 15 or 20 minutes prior to the draft. About 5 minutes before the draft, you will receive a prompt to go to the draft lobby. Once there you just wait until it's your turn to draft. I'm not sure how the draft order is determined, but it really doesn't matter. I've done many mock drafts and the order doesn't seem to make a lot of difference. If you want me to change the draft time, please let me know today. The time chosen is always based on Pacific Standard Time.
phil Posted March 24, 2015 Report Posted March 24, 2015 I'm Pacific time zone, so 7pm my time. I'll give it a go. I'll use my laptop.
CanAm Posted March 24, 2015 Author Report Posted March 24, 2015 Hello, everyone. I've changed the draft from today at 7pm PDT to Thursday (March 26) at 7pm PDT. Carl hasn't registered yet and so we have an odd number of teams which doesn't work for the head to head format. I'll PT Carl and ask him to register. If he is unable to do so, I'll register a second team to round out the numbers so the draft can proceed. Sorry for the inconvenience.
miamisammy29 Posted March 24, 2015 Report Posted March 24, 2015 I will not be participating in the live draft. I'll just trade for the good players later on.
MindCrime Posted March 24, 2015 Report Posted March 24, 2015 I'll register a second team to round out the numbers You're not going to do any "inside trading" are you?
