Yeah, guess you have to have a fangraphs account too, and then join Otto Neu?

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Sign up for fangraphs, then go to ottonue fantasy and search for the league

[metsmarathon]

that was only a smidge obtuse. in.

[Fman99]

In!

[Fman99]

Maybe I'm just intoxicated but hell. I've dated women less complicated than this draft/league.

well yeah, the more complicated ones cost more than $9.99

[smg58]

In as well.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

I changed my team name. I wasn't prepared to name the team when registering and so looked at the beer I was having and wrote "complex ale" right off the label.

Team is now the Greenpoint Lunchladies. We will serve you a platter of nutritious asskick.

heavy helping of mystery meat?

[metsmarathon]

i keep reading that as greenpoint lunchlad[u:3qa5yrut]L[/u:3qa5yrut]es, and giggle at the absurdity.

[metsmarathon]

mind if i invite a buddy of mine into the league? this is right up his alley, and it seems like we might need the help getting a decent number of teams.

he's a cards fan, but we shouldn't hold it against him too much.

Doesn't bother me. Should have plenty of room I imagine, although I haven't looked closely at how many we have since I'm on Vacation.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

I have a friend who might also wanna do this too, I will ask after I get back from vacay if we still need bruthas

[Guest attgig]

when are you guys drafting? I may be in depending on your schedule. I just got too much going on in my life and a draft coming up this week.

I return Friday from the city of sin and can focus a bit more.

what draft dates are good for people? I'm fond of a weekday night personally, less likely to have major offline-engagements. 7ish? 8ish?

[Fman99]

Please make it no earlier than 7:30 on a weeknight. On a weekend, I could go later.

[metsmarathon]

before 7:30 is tough. also the first week of march is out.

i'll have a better handle on the remainder of my coming schedule once my volleyball playoff schedule is out, but those games fall midweek, tues/wed/thurs

[metsmarathon]

we getting any more teams?

scheduling wise, i can basically do any night after the first week of march, except the 14th, 20th and 21st.

the first week of march, i'm a single parent. the other three days are for volleyball playoffs.

We've got..6.

yeah, would like 2 more at least. 8 is a round number right? Were there others of you that are joining that haven't yet?

Also if someone wants to get a feel for the draft, I sorta accidentally claimed a team in another league that has a couple of players already, but I probably can't make their draft so if someone wanted to get a feel for it, and do me a favor..

[metsmarathon]

i do have some other people i could try to drag into this thing. 8 seems too few. i feel like we should have 10-12 minimum. also the more we have the less likely this'll just be a one time flash in the pan sort of thing.

[Ceetar]

think max is 12 anyway, although I fail to see why it can't go to 30 other than no one really wants to have to draft Willie Harris.

There were more than 6 of us here that wanted in right? *pokes around* hey you! Let's give them a couple more days/this week to sign up, then we'll fill out the league with outsiders (And maybe convert them to insiders?)

Do we want to target a draft day one night during the week of March 12-16th? say..the 15th at 8pm? or how about this: http://www.doodle.com/xp637kg2xn65mnn3 I blocked off the two workweeks in mid-march, maybe we can find a time we're all free?

[nymr83]

the doodle thing was a good idea. i filled out my availability. i'm in if its one of those days, and you can find a replacement if its not

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

I'm good almost any night.

Asked a friend to sign up, sounds like he will.

[Ceetar]

8:30 start a problem for anyone else?

Do we want to put a end/postpone time on it if we're not done, or push through until we have ~30 players?

Mon 3/12 and Thursday 3/22 so far are the days we're all free (though someone still missing)

I think it would depend on how close we are to finishing.

[Vic Sage]

sorry, can't make the time commitment this year.
