When you join, please post in the thread stating what your team name is, so we know who's who, in case it isn't obvious.

Just in case the other one doesn't get going I joined this one.

Show Me Your TDs is my team.

I'm The Dudes....

So, by "Fun League" is this league not adding to a pot, and would it be okay for a newcomer such as myself to get acquainted with fantasy football?

This is the perfect league for a newcomer. Come on in.

Dark Castle · « **Reply #9 on:** August 16, 2013, 05:27:26 PM »

Well then, I'm "The Radular Raptors"

PuffyPat · « **Reply #10 on:** August 16, 2013, 05:43:22 PM »

I'm 'It's Not Your Fault' by the way.

jingle.boy · « **Reply #11 on:** August 16, 2013, 07:03:40 PM »

If you can't figure out which team is mine, Ima gonna slap you.

Rattlehead · « **Reply #12 on:** August 16, 2013, 08:14:03 PM »

I'm in

Unfortunately I won't be able to draft because I work until 10pm EST on Mondays, but I'll still take the league seriously and update my lineup every week.

PuffyPat · « **Reply #13 on:** August 16, 2013, 08:37:31 PM »

I think he said the draft time could be changed depending on peoples schedules. He just had to pick a time to make the league.

antigoon · « **Reply #14 on:** August 16, 2013, 08:58:55 PM »

I'm in as No God Only Tebow. This will be my first time playing fantasy football.

Isn't this an automated draft. Just make your rankings and the draft will pick our teams?

Not to rain on the parade, but Splent has long standing leagues with history...can we revive those instead?

Perpetual Change · « **Reply #17 on:** August 17, 2013, 05:20:02 AM »

Yay, I'm in. I'm Politically Correct. Also my first time.

I ran DTF. Splent ran DTF2. If he's around and can revive his league, then all the better, because this one's already got 10.

Destiny Of Chaos · « **Reply #19 on:** August 17, 2013, 07:27:59 AM »

This league now has 10 players. That's a great number for a FF league. We can add two more, but anything over twelve gets a little unwieldy. We can not have 11 teams.

If there is still a lot of interest, we could start a second league.

^ I agree. Although, there's a message in the league overview section saying you changed it to a max of 20 teams?
Also, is it a live, or automated draft?
Also, can you maybe change the thread title to read 2013 or something, so we can distinguish the title easily (rather than just 'league' vs 'invitational') over last years thread?

I originally had it set to 20... but I came to my senses and changed it to 12.

The draft is live. Those who can't make it can set up their autodraft. Hopefully we can agree to a date/time that works for the majority of players.

I'll edit the thread title.

snapple · « **Reply #22 on:** August 17, 2013, 08:28:26 AM »

I joined. No idea if I'll be able to make the draft, but I hope so. My team is Smell My Fingers

Dimitrius · « **Reply #23 on:** August 17, 2013, 08:55:51 AM »

If we get close to draft day and a 12th team hasn't join, I'd have no problem bowing out so there's 10.

Yeah, I'm cool with that if need be... but it's definitely more fun to physically draft your own team

The best day/time that would work for me would be August 27th, anytime after 9pm ET. I'm going to be traveling, and in Phx in my hotel room, so that would be ideal. That's pretty much the only way I'd be able to make it live, otherwise it'll just default to my ratings.

I'm game.

Also, I re-started the yahoo keeper league as well.

You should have an email in whatever email account you used to register your yahoo team with last year.

CrimsonSunrise · « **Reply #31 on:** August 17, 2013, 03:24:46 PM »

Got it...it basicly had me fill out an email to join, now waiting, I assume for your permission

Destiny Of Chaos · « **Reply #32 on:** August 25, 2013, 08:30:07 AM »

Draft is tomorrow night. Tuesday wouldn't work for me as I'm in class at night. If you can't make it tomorrow night, let me know.... if it's a lot of you, we'll try to push it back.

jingle.boy · « **Reply #33 on:** August 25, 2013, 08:31:42 AM »

I cannot.

jammindude · « **Reply #34 on:** August 25, 2013, 05:20:35 PM »

Crap....I may actually have two overlapping drafts....I'm gonna have to check.

I've only done this once before...trying to do two at the same time is going to make my brain explode.
