New thread for the upcoming 2014 TWSS Fantasy Football Thread. Our league is not limited to just the ladies, all posters are welcome Looks like the format will be 1pt PPR on ESPN this year - there has been talk about raising stakes but since no one has proposed an amount, I will throw 50 out there for this year and see where that gets us Fractional points have also been brought back this year, but let me know if there's anything else to address with the format.

So far, the following posters have indicated interest:

Aimee
SGT RJ
dakota-xx
AAmaz0n
JM3
Pokerella
lanaob
verymoon

Would LOVE to get to 12 teams this year, spread the word!!

I personally liked 10 teams last year- 8 was too few, but I've heard from friends that 12 is just dipping too far down to no-namers, especially later in the season... I'm fine with playing with 12 teams though if that many people are interested.

$50 works for me . Not sure about the ESPN part, but I'll put up with it....

Prefer 12 players myself too but will play with 10 if that is what we get. My be harder to get 12 with $50 - maybe try $30.

Perhaps, but let's see if we have any specific objections first. I'm happy to bring it down if there are potential players that are priced out at $50, but so far I haven't gotten any feedback that that is the case.

I have tentatively scheduled the draft for Monday, Sept 1 at 8:15 est. Let me know if anyone has any conflicts but hopefully this should be a good time for everyone

I will still be at work, but I'm happy to bow out anyway. Life way too busy lately.

Would moving the time back help you out? I can see if there are better times available.

I'm going to go ahead and start sending PMs to the interested parties so we can get everyone registered in time (I think we cut things pretty close to the deadline last time). Invites will be sent one payments are complete, so please get this done when you can so we can fill this league up

It's hard to say. It would have to be about 2 hours later for me to 100% be sure I could make it, so prob best just to do it without me. G'luck.

Pretty much any time on Monday is good for me (Sunday- not so good).

Don't forget you can always autodraft too if need be!

So is our confirmed count 10 so far without JM3, 11 with?

Monday is okay for me but I already have a draft at 9:00pm so def can't be later than 8:15. I can't do 2 that start too close together but don't mind a small overlap.

Once draft time is set for sure I can send my payment - I don't want to auto-draft for a $50 league so have to be able to make the draft.

Would be very interested, but I guess you are talking about USA timezones and if that is East Coast then for me that (20:15) is 3:00 in the morning or three hours after midnight :P

On Sunday everybody plays poker and no time for draft then?

Sorry, we have traditionally had players on both the east and west coast so it's really hard to find a time that works for both - not sure how we can fit it in for your time zone as well. That weekend is also a holiday weekend in the US, so I chose Monday night since it would probably be the closest to the start of the season we can get while hopefully not overlapping with when people are likely to be traveling. I may not be able to do Sunday but if it works better for the league then I will consider it. I'm afraid we won't be able to find one time that will work for everyone, though. I have already registered a few people so I won't make any changes that will not work for those players.

Perhaps the best thing to do is have everyone PM me their availability and I'll do my best to find a time that accommodates everyone, but for now let's work under the assumption that the draft is Sept 1 @ 8:15 EST.

Any day/time is fine with me. Sure that I will be equally inept whenever it is.

Well put me down anyway, getting up 3AM is something I have to get used to again as NFL and then NBA starts.

My timezone is +7 hours for you, so if we can do it Sunday at 3 or 4 PM (or earlier and USA time) would be perfect, but can understand if not.

monday at 8:15 works great for me, but a little later is fine. wouldn't want to start it later than 10pm (ET). afternoon doesn't work for me. too tough with two kids. shipped on paypal.

Mondays don't work well for me but I am willing to pre rank players and auto draft if need be. Pretty much any other week night would be better for my schedule though. Thanks!

Looks like we should just stick with Monday at 8:15 since that seems to work for most of us. RJ posted in the other thread that she's too busy to play this year so here's an update on our status:

Aimee - registered
AAmaz0n - registered
lanaob - paid, invite sent
verymoon - paid, invite sent
hmart31 - paid, invite sent
dakota-xx - awaiting payment
Pokerella - awaiting payment
katie75013 - awaiting payment
shamuonline - awaiting payment

If you intend to play, please send payment/register soon as you can so we can hold your spot. Will probably cross post in the fantasy sports forum to get another player in, but if you can think of anyone who would like to play please send them this way!

Ok, last time we're going to discuss changing the time, promise Two people have indicated the cannot make Monday night at 8:15, so I will propose Tuesday (the 2nd) at 9pm as a second option. Again, I won't change it unless it works for those who have already registered, but obv drafts are much more fun when everyone can participate. Please post or PM me your preference. Thanks!

10pm works, but can't do any earlier that night and I'm not sure I could stay awake if it starts much later. haven't received invite yet.

9pm Tues works for me - waiting for draft date and time to be confirmed and final before paying.
