*****Draft Times*****

$250 Snake A - Monday August 25th; 830pm EST

$250 Snake B *** 3WR *** - Tuesday August 26th; 830pm EST

$250 Snake C - Wednesday August 27th; 830pm EST

$100 Auction A - Monday August 25th; 930pm EST

$100 Auction B - Tuesday August 26th; 930pm EST

Here's the PM I sent to last year's players. Text in red was not included in the original PM. I would suggest reading this if you want to in.

All leagues will be ran on ESPN

Hey all - I'm going to be running some FF leagues again and just wanted to give all of last year's players a chance to reserve a spot or two. I am going to run;

$250 PPR A (Snake draft)
$250 PPR B (Snake draft)
$250 PPR C (Snake draft)
$100 PPR A (Auction draft)
$100 PPR B (Auction draft)

If I get enough interest, I will start an additional Auction draft league, but do not plan to start another Snake draft league.

Note: All leagues will be 12t leagues.

The $100 Auction is almost full from reserves. So I will plan on running a 2nd $100 Auction

All leagues with will have ESPN default settings with the following adjustments;
- Fractional Scoring
- PPR
- Modified defensive scoring (No points/penalties for Yards Allowed. +10/-10 point max for Points Allowed)
- No Divisions
- Playoffs will be w14-w16. 6 Teams, top 2 seeds get a first round bye
- Waiver Order will be a season long list (aka does not reset each week) (This only applies to Snake drafts)
- 200 FAAB (Auction leagues only)
- $0 minimum bid (Auction leagues only)
- Trade deadline of Thrus. Nov. 6th at 12pm EST
- 24 hours trade review with ONLY Commissioner Veto. If you believe a trade should be vetoed, contact me ASAP. FYI - I will only veto trades that appear to be some form of collusion. We are all putting money up for this, I'm not protecting any player from making a bad trade.
- Draft order will be determined once the league fills and all payments are recieved. It will be randed using this tool ; http://www.fftoolbox.com/draft_order_generator.cfm Basically, I put in everybody's Team name AND e-mail, and once it is randed, it's automatically sends out an e-mail to all teams. So there is no way for me to rig the order or redo it. (Snake only)
- 60 second draft timer (Snake only, duh)
- Missed PAT = -1

Note: If any leagues currently have settings inconsistent with the above, I reserve the right to change them to fit the above. Example - If I forgot to add PPR scoring to a league, you may not join and wait till after the draft to be like "LOL it's no PPR, you all drafted like it was! Suckers!" If you see an inconsistency, please let me know so I can fix them.

That should cover it, but here are the links to the settings.

Snake
Auction

Draft - Draft dates and time not been determined yet as I don't know my work schedule that far out, but expect them to be around the last week of August. I plan for a Monday or Tuesday around 9pm EST, but may change depending on my work schedule.

Note: $250 Snake A and $100 Auction A will draft on Monday, August 25th. Time is TBD, but expect it to be between 7pm-10pm EST.

Expect the other leagues to draft later that same week in the evening.

Payouts
1st - 7x
2nd - 3x
3rd - 1x
Most points (Regular Season) - 1x
x = buyin amount

Payments
I will accept PayPal or a check. Payment deadlines will be one week before the draft day. However, keep in mind that the sooner all payments are collected, the sooner I rand the draft. If you want in don't send payments yet, please. Once I allow payments and you send it, please PM me what PayPal account it was sent from (Or PM your name if it's via a check).

I will allow everybody to reserve as many spots as you had last year. If you played in one league, you may reserve one spot. Two leagues, two spots, etc...

I plan to post a sign-up thread for new players August 1st. If you have not reserve a spot by then, you risk losing your spot.

Which is today (duh). It is now first come, first served.

---------------------------

I think that covers everything. Thanks all and GL.

P.S. Sorry if I send this to some of you twice.

If you want in, here's how this works.

1) Post "in" and tell me which leagues you want to in
2) PM me your e-mail address so I can send the invite
3) Once all 12 teams have joined, I will send out my PayPal info (if you want to send a check, let me know and I will supply my mailing address)
4) PM me back telling me you have sent your payment. If you send via PayPal, please tell me the e-mail address it was sent from. If you send a check, please tell me the name on the check Please be sure to send this to Friends and Family so there are no fees.
5) Once I confirm the payment, you are good to go.
6) Once the entire league has paid, the draft order will be randed.

The deadline to pay will be exactly one week from the draft day at 12pm EST. I understand the draft day/times are not set in stone yet, but notice that means the earliest your deadline will be is Monday, August 18th. This is still plenty of time to send a payment. Again. THE FASTER YOU PAY, THE FASTER I CAN RAND THE DRAFT ORDER, THE EASIER THIS BECOMES. If you do not make the payment deadline, I will look for a replacement IMMEDIATELY.

I will be taking alternates for all leagues. Last year I had a few people drop out or fail to pay by the deadline. It's really nice to have people ready to go in that event. If you are an alternate, once the deadline passes, please be prepared to send a payment ASAP as it's possible your spot only opens a week before the draft.

To show I don't suck as an escrow;

SB Squares

Escrowed 2.5k. 3/4 payouts confirmed. I did send the other but he never confirmed in the thread.

PP is obv the easiest, but I can also take checks.

Cliffs:

Join my leagues
I run them pretty well
I pay out timely

Define late?

Again, I don't know my schedule that week yet (after Monday), but I would expect the other leagues to draft Tue, Wed or Thurs.

Would you be open to moving to Auction league B if we can't figure out a good time for Monday? Considering how many people reserved a spot, I would expect both auction leagues to fill.

Bleh, yeah. Seems a bit late. Once I figure out what days I have off, we'll figure something out. Worst case; I'll slide you over to a different league that has a draft on a better day for you.

I'm in for snake C and one of the auction leagues. Anytime in the afternoon or evening pacific time works for me on the 25th.

Thanks for running the leagues btw. I was in two sirR commished leagues last year and he did a great job and paid out very quick.

Could you talk a little about your escrow credentials?

I don't mean to seem rude, but you're volunteering to hold $11,400 and I'd hate to think of that to be tempting

edit: nm didn't see them in the OP

Monday is rough for me since I have two over night shifts a week and that's one of them. I could draft before work but then I can't draft drunk and the auction is a lot of fun when you're pounding beers.

Without going into much detail, I would say that if I did scam somebody, it would not be too difficult to find me/crush my skull in.

I'm working on setting the draft days in stone. I'll post it shortly and then have an SE mod edit the times into the OP

In for $100 auction A. Also I'd meet in the middle at a $200 auction if that was something people wanted. But short of that, I'm down for the $100 auction A.

That will work. Movie, I'll slide you over. Bluff, let me know.

rafiki/nba, if you want their spots in Auction A, let me know. Like I said I'm confident both auction leagues fill.
