If we have two more wanting in why not expand the league to 10? Just a suggestion.

by **S7 mrmiller** Fri Sep 02, 2011 12:29 am

16 teams means you play everyone twice and still do not have to play the last week. Also, I keep the bench small so there are lots of good players on the waiver wire. This keeps it competitive, and you really have to manage your team. Otherwise it seems through injury or whatnot, about half the teams are out of it at the half way point and give up on their team.

Honestly I think this is about the best system you can run, as I have refined and tweeked it over the past 16-17 years.

If there was enough interest, I would start another league. I'd play in it too as I've played in as many as 5 before, but I would rather hold to 2 or 3.

Not sure if that counted me but I'd be in. If she's welcome my wife would too as she's a bigger football fan than I am lol

by **Atrum** Fri Sep 02, 2011 11:22 am

Also nate would play. He's registered on the forums as sir_nasty, gamertag SKN SMEAD

If you need an extra I can play also just do the draft quickly

by **S7 mrmiller** Fri Sep 02, 2011 12:24 pm

The Second league would be auto draft for this weekend if we have enought to fill it. Still going with a live draft for those who can attend the 1st league- sunday night.

OK- I created a second league, this one will be auto-draft, and I would like to set it to draft Saturday or Sunday. If we can't fill the second one, we will scrap it. Let me know who all wants an invite, and I'll try to get the people who are not playing the live draft leage in the new one first.

This is pretty much last second, but if anyone in the first leage can't make the draft and wants to switch to the second one with the auto-draft, let me know and we will see if we can't shuffle people around to have 2 full leagues.

I'm down for whatever. I can even do both either live draft or auto draft.

by **S7 mrmiller** Sat Sep 03, 2011 10:03 am

We will need to fill the 2nd league this weekend to have time to draft. Those who have shown interest are:

KnightOwl
Buk
Atrum
Atrum's wife
Sir Nasty/Nate
Mcamp
and Droopy said he will fill a spot if we need it. Adding me to the mix that is 8. Join up soon- shoot me a msg if you need the invite.

by **S7 OC** Sat Sep 03, 2011 11:49 pm

I'll fill it off you can't find any one else. But I'm in the other also

by **S7 mrmiller** Sun Sep 04, 2011 3:22 am

Last chance for anyone who is not in the other league to sign up, as there is only one more spot. Glock- if no one else wants to play I will pass it to you if you are still up for playing in both.

For those doing the live draft, if you want to get on XBL Party chat I will start a room about 9 EST. Draft is set to start at 9:15 Eastern Time!

by **Atrum** Sun Sep 04, 2011 5:31 pm

Out of curiosity any reason league 2 won't do a live draft? Not that it matters to me was just curious.

by **S7 mrmiller** Sun Sep 04, 2011 7:39 pm

I didn't have time to set up a live draft as it was last minute.

~mrmiller

by **Atrum** Sun Sep 04, 2011 9:34 pm

Ahh, makes sense. I basically go with what autodraft would choose anyway so that's cool.

by **DeadSockPuppet** Mon Sep 05, 2011 1:13 am

Now that the draft is done I can't wait to get the games. Wiggles, you're going down like a cheap date!

by **Atrum** Wed Sep 07, 2011 1:47 pm

Can we get some links up so people in both leagues can see how the other is going?
