Fantasy Football 2011: Jumping the Gun

I tried practicing auction draft via a mock draft, but there were only three of us in the room. Seemed like I didn't really get anything out of it, but at least I'm familiar with the interface now.

Of course, what are the odds everyone actually shows up? Do we have a backup plan when only 9 people show up?

god knows they had enough time to sign up and enough warnings...

pretty sure headspace gets phone notifications when there's talk on league message boards, might try to get his attention that way if you're in another league with him

**tyven** · 2011-09-04 17:12

i texted headspace for yall niggas

**tyven** · 2011-09-04 17:17

he said he cant make it

**Headspace** · 2011-09-04 17:25

Can't draft from android phone right?

**Ryany** · 2011-09-04 17:27

Don't worry. Autodraft will get you a quality 2nd kicker and 2nd defense before drafting a 1st RB.

Who the fuck writes the software for that shit anyways. If anyone made a halfway intelligent program for it, they'd make a fucking killing.

Yeah, my team last year was legendary. Bidding $10 on backup Kickers is money.

**Tyche** · 2011-09-04 17:49

Nominate terrible players and let the autodrafters spend that cash so we can get to a real draft!

**Tyr** · 2011-09-04 17:50

I'm gonna lock the league at 12 in a couple minutes (has to be before 7pm EST) so we don't get bumped out of our draft spot -- Barthello hasn't responded, we have two options if Headspace can join/draft:
1) Headspace gets in and someone drafts for Barthello then we let him comanage or something...?
2) Someone takes Barthello's spot (from BGE/BGW)
3) Headspace gets booted

(because can't have odd numbers)

**Tyr** · 2011-09-04 17:56

Bah....gotta lock the league =/

Sorry headspace/barthello

If one of these guys shows up, and someone else is a no-show, can we still make a last minute switch?

**Tyr** · 2011-09-04 17:57

Hmmm, not mid-draft, but I can fully transfer a team.

To further answer -- not entirely sure, but we can def try if thats the case

Thanks man, this spreadsheet is pretty awesome... will use it for my other drafts too!

Demosthenes11 · 2011-09-04 18:23

i havnt done nearly the amount of legwork for an auction draft as I should have.

Fuck it, we'll do it live

Would have loved to join - but invites were sent out too late. I have been in Europe the past two weeks. Back now.
