Apolyton Fantasy Football - 2nd League

[Berzerker]

We have people who can't get into the first league so I started this to see if we have enough people wanting to join a second league. Please post here if you're interested, but people who missed out on the first league have first priority to join this one...

Post your intentions asap, I'm not sure when the deadline for creating leagues is due.

I figure the parameters will be similar to the first league but I think it would be nice if this league had 3 defensive players as opposed to team defenses...

[Zopperoni]

I think you can create league at least until the start of the season, so that shouldn't be a problem.

We need about eight players, with one possibly crossing over from the other game to be the commish.

I have no idea how the NFL style of fantasy league works, but I know a thing or two about the game, and have a friend who plays for Yorkshire so I can ask him if I need some recommendations when it comes to picking the last players in the team. Will I have to be on-line at a certain time to auction for them?

[Stuie]

You know, Imran sent me the FIRST invite for the other league, but because I couldn't get to my email until last night I got shutout. That sucks.

So yes, I'm interested.

[Zopperoni]

DoY, you'll need to be online to make the picks. However, if you submit a short list of preferred players, we can keep the chains moving swiftly.

[Imran Siddiqui]

Sorry Stuie. I just sent out invites to everyone who asked and people signed up.

I'll play, but I don't want to be commish.

Ah, well. I should of gotten to my gmail sooner. No hard feelings; and if there are, I'll take it out on the Georgia Goonies.

[Berzerker]

Okay, I'll commish... Let's see how many people we can get, I think I'll PM Sloth

Looks like we have 5 already and Sloth makes 6, we can go with 10 or 12, not really particular about that.

[duke o' york]

Will you be using the team or individual defensive players?

We could 14 in the Poly 1 league . I outlined a plan of attack there .

[Zopperoni]

Nah, twelve is good. This way, we can have two balanced leagues.

As posted in the other thread, this will be a great chance to try rule/scoring/roster variations, sort of a playtest lab so we can see how it affects scoring balance. Individual defenders, different roster configs, RB/QB/WR scoring etc.

I'm in the other league (sorry, Stuie) and would add this one if needed to fill it out.

Berz, with FFZ down, you should check with Ming and rah.

[Imran Siddiqui]

FFZ is back up, Jrabbit .

[Zopperoni]

We could always make a third league

Imran, I was just trying to pre-set some categories at Yahoo and we're only allowed 15 offensive categories. That means we can't have all the stats we'd want. For example, one of the sacrificed stats might be rushing attempts. Incomplete passes might be another - damn Yahoo gives is more than 15 stats and won't let us use them all.

Duke, yes, that will be the main difference between the 2 poly leagues, the other one has a team defense and this one will allow individual defensive players to be picked.

I have the league name and password but I want to wait for people who aren't in the other league to sign on since they should get first shot... I'll PM Sloth, Stuie,and Duke the info for now...
