Yahoo! Fantasy Hockey League

[SVTVenom]

Anyone on here interested in making a DFWStangs Yahoo! Fantasy Hockey League once they get it up and running?

[D]

Count me in. Let me know ASAP though because I'm deployed right now and on the US computers I can't get on anything related to Yahoo, but if I go use the British computers I can get on EVERYTHING.

[Hollywood]

Count me in.

[SVTVenom]

Looks like we have plenty of people to play but no league yet. Neither Yahoo! or ESPN's is up as of today. I'll post up when they open up.

[LannyN9NE]

[ClockwrkOrangeS4]

I'd give it a shot

what kind of dedication do these things take? 10 minutes a day? 10 minutes a week? 4 hours a week?

just wondering

Maybe 5-10 minutes a day.

Are you guys wanting Head-to-Head or Rotissere(sp?)? I'm down for whatever.

[Hollywood]

Head to head. I hate rotisserie, people tend to lose interest really fast in rotisserie leagues.

I agree, but I at least want to see what the majority of the people want to do.

What about drafting? Auto-Draft or Live Draft? I'm leaning towards Auto-Draft due to the fact I have only 1 day off during the week.

[ZYouL8R]

Head to head w/ live draft.

[musclestang89]

are they even going to play this year?

[ClockwrkOrangeS4]

whichever is easier :)

[Hollywood]

are they even going to play this year?

why wouldn't they?

[LannyN9NE]

Head to head is more fun, as far as the draft goes im up for either a live draft or auto

Im up, but damn i dont wana wait till October for this.

[SVTVenom]

I may change the draft date to an earlier one. I just put it that late so that everyone could see who was signed and on what teams. Give me some suggestions as to what day/time we should do it.

hmm well i honestly havnt got a clue on a good date/time. my work schedule is gona change as of Sept. 11 when we start our peak season, but i just meant hockey in general not the leauge draft.

[SVTVenom]

Right now I have it set for an AutoPick draft, but I can change that. I am setting the draft order in order of people signing up so post up here when you get your team up.

So far it is:

1. Nate's Team

2. Whitesmoke's Whalers

[Hollywood]

HollywoodKings

The only time I couldn't make a live draft would be before 8 during the week, Wednesday and Sundays between 4-8.

I have tenatively set the Live Draft for Sunday, October 2 at 9:30 p.m.

This date/time is not set in stone and can be changed so don't freak out. I am also contemplating doing an Offline draft here and then submitting the results that way. What are your thoughts on that?

[Hollywood]

I'll head over to the British internet place so I can access Yahoo and set my team up tomorrow as long as I'm not busy.

[SVTVenom]

Just wanted to remind everyone that our live draft is coming up soon! I can't wait for some Hockey!!!!

[Hollywood]

I hope we don't have a bunch of inactive players seeing how there's only 7 teams.

[ClockwrkOrangeS4]

I'll participate as often as I can... looks like I can see it at work so it shouldn't be a problem

[SVTVenom]

What happened to Dallastars281? We need at least 1 more team so someone isn't getting a bye each week.

[Hollywood]

I can post up some info on the Kings board if we need one more player. Let me know.

[LannyN9NE]

Just a reminder the draft is tonight

[SVTVenom]

Do it. We need 1 more so there is no gay ass bye.

[SVTVenom]

I was gonna do this as well. Remider that it is tonight at 9:30 PM.

Yahoo! suggests that you be on there at least 10 minutes early. Try to be even earlier as in 15 min so we can get it done. I'm going to go in and make sure all the league settings look good and hopefully we can have some fun this season.

[ZYouL8R]

The league settings show the stats used, but don't give points them. Do we get 1 point for a goal, 1 for an assist, etc? Or is it 2g, 1a? How is save percentage calculated into points? If there was a way to show which stats gave which points (like in fantasy football), it'd make the draft easier.

Lemme check real quick.

[Wario]

Do i still have time to get in on this?

[SVTVenom]

Lemme check real quick.

It won't let me change anything regarding how the points are done right now. It looks as if it will let me do that once the draft is over. I'm guessing that goals and assists will be worth 1 pt each and maybe PPG worth 2. I don't know.

[SVTVenom]

Do i still have time to get in on this?

Yes, hurry up and sign up. Less than an hour to go.

[Wario]
