    Are we increasing the number of teams?
    If so i think we should decrease the numbe of keepers so that there are players to pick for newcomers.

    At the moment I've kept the full 8 but I'd drop to 6 if that's what the majority think. Looking at the other teams only one other person has kept 8 currently so this might not be that big an issue.

    I'm only temporary commish as eagle is banned. I really don't mind what we do. But we have been steadily decreasing in numbers. I don't know what's best to do tbh.

    We probably won't get a majority. The thread isn't very active. What would you prefer?

    I'd prefer to keep the 8, as I said only myself and one other have kept 8 so far. Dropping to 6 only adds 4 players back into the mix. Honestly though it's not a big deal if people feel it would make for a better season.

    Not sure yet. But send me your email.

    Setting the draft for Tuesday at 9.

    I asked eagle eye (the real commish) to decide on the additional teams/keepers.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,683 ✭✭✭Raoul


    A couple of invites sent out to two teams there. I have to send them in twos. So as soon as they accept, I can send out another two.

    Word coming down from the real commish that people can keep 8 keepers but they don't have to.

    I think it makes it tougher on new teams coming in but not much we can do.

    Updated list:
    1 Raoul - Dundalk Oriels
    2 BizzyC - the Fear Boners
    3 Manafana - Manafana Steelers
    4 Billr67 -Steel City Celtics
    5 EagleEye - Foxboro Legends
    6 Wong - Can I Borrow a Thielen
    7 Tripperman - LAscramblers
    8 Masked Man - Desert Bluff Vultures
    9 Serenity_Now - The Carrickolina Panthers
    10 Raven136 - Cereal Killers
    11 Brenty (invited)
    12 Wormy (invited)

    I know we are a boards league but we have usually kept to our own rules since we aren't in the same structure, so I am not implementing PPR as we haven't voted on it as a league. If someone wants to they can set up a poll for next season.

    Good stuff, everyone has joined.

    Draft is tonight at 9. Good luck.

    Would anyone like to volunteer to be Commish? I think I begrudgingly did it last year to keep the league going.

    Also, would a telegram be a good idea as there was zero engagement last season. May aswell be playing in an NFL.com league.

    I'm in if it goes ahead



  • Registered Users Posts: 37,485 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    What's a telegram?



  • Registered Users Posts: 7,683 ✭✭✭Raoul


    A whatsapp alternative. Personally I think it is significantly better. You can easily use it on your desktop too. Just trying to get a bit more "banter" going for this group. We can do polls in it too.

    That's 9 people. I have no idea who own's what teams or anything. I don't really have time to be commish. Can anyone else do it?



  • Registered Users Posts: 37,485 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    I'll see if I can do it. I can't commit yet though. I'll know inside two weeks.



  • Registered Users Posts: 3,010 ✭✭✭BizzyC

  • Registered Users Posts: 3,010 ✭✭✭BizzyC


    Are we making any rule changes this season?

    I think 8 keepers is excessive myself, I thought it was more balanced when we had 4.



  • Registered Users Posts: 194 ✭✭DM_2092


    I may be interested in joining if it's free entry? I've played Dynasty before as well as standard.



  • Registered Users Posts: 7,683 ✭✭✭Raoul


    If we get people in the telegram group. We could get these things sorted out quite quick. Boards is very quiet at the moment



  • Registered Users Posts: 7,683 ✭✭✭Raoul


    Currently it's a full house but I don't think everyone has signed back up yet. Do you want to be a reserve for now?



  • Registered Users Posts: 194 ✭✭DM_2092


    Yep. Works for me. Give me a holler if a space opens up.
