MeCha Fantasy Football - Draft Day! And we still need a couple more managers...right now we're only at 6 teams. You should be able to get in from the link...if not, search for league 248290.

If we don't get any more managers, is there any thought to expanding the rosters? Maybe 2 QB and an extra flex or something?

Draft day/time has been changed to Wednesday, September 4 at 7:30pm CDT, so that we give more people time to get in. (I just realized that the league was a bit more restrictive about letting people in than I wanted. I fixed that - this year is not the most user-friendly that the system has been!) Still time to join us!

I can see the league, but I can't join the league. I've emailed previously to request an invitation. It seems doomed. I'm willing to be one of a possible two to expand the league, and I'm completely unprepared, so you should help me join, I'll be an easy mark. PLUS, I'll have to auto draft, so you totally want me in the league.

Weird. I never got the invitation request. At any rate, I sent an invite to the email you have in your profile...let me know if that one works.

And eek! I completely forgot that Wednesday is Erev Rosh Hashanah. (I of all people should have remembered that!) Therefore, draft date is now Tuesday, September 3, 6:15pm CDT, so as not to conflict with the High Holidays. Sorry for all the changes!

Oh hey, and here I just came online to go I WAS HOME - WHY DID I MISS THE DRAFT?? but it's on Tuesday now. That's cool.

I am in as The Handy Glasses. If there isn't another team to make an even number (c'mon somebody!) feel free to ask me to quit. As I said, I am blissfully unprepared and in rehearsals so I will miss the live draft. : )

Yay rainbaby!

I looks like an odd number of teams is OK by yahoo. Just means a couple of bye weeks for each team.

posted by danostuporstar 02 September | 06:37

I invited a coworker to join the league, so we'll be even for the draft! Yay!

And now...we have 9 teams, and Yahoo bumped us out of our draft slot...so it looks like it's going to have to be autopick - all the decent live draft times (read: not late at night or during the work day) are unavailable. BOOO! So we need one more team...and then I will set the autodraft to run tomorrow. Sorry about that!

..and just as I post that we get a 10th team! Yay!

posted by sisterhavana 03 September | 17:58

and I was able to get a new draft time: 6:45pm tomorrow. See everyone then!

Looking forward to it!

Cool. I'll be studying for an Anatomy exam tomorrow night, but I'll take a study break for the draft. Glad it worked out. Thanks, sisterhavana.
