unless there's been a name change it looks like these 2 don't belong:

Enunwa Your Business
Dublin Gmen

maybe you can make me co-owner for one and then remove original owner?

Dublin Gmen is the one I had that needed to be removed so have invited you to be co-owner there. Enunwa Your Business must be a name change.

perfect, I'm in. If you can remove original owner I'll see if I can rename the team.

super, all done now. Was there a rule change from 3WR to 2WR and a flex this year?

only just saw the rule change thread.

Q1: Should we decide on draft order prior to the Draft? Yes. when do we get draft order?
Q2: How many teams per league (Currently 16)? 16
Q3: Once voted on rules cannot be changed for 3 full seasons? No
Q4: Should we change to PPR, 0.5 PPR or leave it as standard scoring? Standard
Q5: Should we Have a Flex position? Yes, Yes - 2 RB, 2 WR, 1TE, 1 WR/TE/RB that answered my question
Q6: Should we have a Free Agent Budget for the season instead of picking in order? No leave it as is, you pick your free agent then you go to the bottom of the list
Q7: Should points be awarded for an offensive player recovering a fumble for a TD? Yes points should be awarded
Q8: Reduce the time to make a draft pick from 90 Seconds? Yes, Reduce to 60 Seconds
Q9: Tie Breaking Scenario? Leave it as Head to Head

Last, cheers kid

I'm in at #4. Gives me a different set of players to be considering in first round compared to my other league (#8 in that).
Looks I'll be starting with an RB... just have to wait and see who it is now.

Raphael

First pick... never sure if that's a blessing or a curse.

I've had first pick a couple of times as luck would have it, and he has always gotten injured in the first couple of weeks.

In Exile

I've changed name from finding Geno to enunwa your business

Poll to vote for draft time. Think either Sunday, Monday and Tuesday evenings are best options so put times on poll for same. I'll allow votes on poll until 10pm on Friday as we have to set draft order beforehand and allow time for preparation.

3 left to vote but looks likely to be Monday evening for draft. *excitement builds*

Happened to me last year in another league with DJ. Major eggs in one basket type situation.

Upshot, I can basically skip the first hour of the draft.

Keep in mind we only have sixty seconds to pick this year though (thank God, nothing worse than sitting there as someone used the full allocation for every pick, or better yet seemed to stop paying attention at all!)

first round in particular shouldn't take too long, we know what position we're picking at so we all should have a reasonable idea of who we're taking.

setanta74

What is the app like for the draft? I can't recall if I used it or not last year. Previous years was laptop. Probably be out and about Monday and hoping to use it. I have autopicks set and preferred positions anyway.

paulie21

The votes are in. Monday at 9pm is draft time

In Exile

Dammit, I hate 6am starts!

That's actually a point that should probably be hammered home - if you're done drafting and want to just let the robots take it from there, make sure to fully leave the draft, don't just minimise it. If you're not connected, you autopick in <5 seconds, if you are still connected it waits the whole time to do it, which is ****ty for anyone who's still picking.

I thought as soon as you auto pick/time out once, it sets you to 'away' and continues to 5 second auto draft until you untick 'away'?

Yeah that's the way it works

Raphael

Huh, TIL.

Realt Dearg Sec

Best of luck lads, don't forget there's a flex position now instead of 3 WRs.

BKWDR

Thought it was half nine... Been pr1ckin around the past hour!

Guffy

Forgot it. ****.

Tbf team not terrible bar the rb situation. Wouldnt of had the same team had i selected myself. Many auto drafts?

Realt Dearg Sec

I'd probably have been better off autodrafting. Got a bit flustered whenever my next pick got taken just before I was up.

McG

Just got the "Who Won Your Draft" mail from NFL.com

They're projecting me to got 5-8, highlight though was this:

"Chancers may know something no one else does, grabbing James Conner, who is on a squad in less than 10% of all NFL.com leagues (1%)."

I think they need to update their mail templates, the secret is out!

Realt Dearg Sec

Projected to go 3-10. Which sounds about right.

setanta74

A+ and 12-1 according to the report. I'll just let my team manage itself and I will check back in with you all in December!!!


Yeah right.

paulie21

All my players played in the 6pm slot this week. That must be fairly unusual

In Exile

I'm going to win with 64 points!

I lost Mariota, Greg Olsen and Fournette to injuries. Very bad start

nasty_crash

Super week against Dingle Dogs.... i had Jeremy Hill and Delanie walker go down... but came down to monday night football - he had tate in the Jets Lions game and i had kupp in the rams game..... lost by 2 points but it was close all weekend and enjoyed following it haha

But seriously really need Lev Bell to come back now tho

No rush, I got myself an RB1 in James Conner in the 9th round of the draft

Very quiet in here. Getting into the business end of the season and the top 3 teams are 8-3, 2 games ahead of the chasing pack of 6 team (plus another 2 on 5-6 who could have a shot).

My own team is one of the 6 at 6-5 despite having scored the most points.... that's fantasy football I guess.

We've only had a single trade all season but there doesn't appear to be a deadline so maybe there's time for more before it's all over.

I was so pissed off the other week when I picked up the Charger D to replace the Vikes on a bye and then forgot to put them in, and therefore lost...my own doing but it destroyed my motivation entirely Stupid to let it slide though. Definitely the quietest year I've ever had in this game

BKWDR

Been setting my lineup ever week , few head banging decisions on my behalf but its been decent.

Fantasy for me is the craic had with the trades and the sh1t talk. The boards leagues are really devoid of that though

McG

good day on waivers for me, got all 3 I put in for.

Gus Edwards could be good down the stretch (as long as Lamar Jackson is QB)
Cameron Brate might be an improvement at TE with Howard done for season. TE has been a disaster of a position this year.
Stephen Gostkowksi will hopefully be a decent kicker for rest of season


Taking a chance that Edwards can be useful in case of injuries I've now got a couple of RBs to spare so putting out some trade requests to try strengthen WR a little.

McG

finished as the top scoring team in the league
yet somehow finished 9th in table
so no playoffs this year


good luck to the teams that made it!

Raphael

Ugh, hate when that happens. Looks like you were also the most scored against, which is no real surprise.

Elsewhere in the league, holy crap that Division 1 upset

Peeping Tomlinsons were leading all season, but lost to My Cousin Vinnie this week, got bumped out of the lead and missed playoffs

Harsh.

I autodrafted so no real satisfaction in number 1 seed but finally out of div 3

In Exile

Missed the playoffs on a tiebreaker. Devestated! I was predicted to win only one game and came so close!

Raphael

Just copped that the Championship this year is the 5th seed vs 6th seed. Fantasy is wack.
