I'm fine with 10:30 pm. More people have to speak up. Why do I have a feeling that 3-5 of the people already in the league aren't going to follow it... (making it annoying for the players who do participate.)

And I'd really like to know:

(i) if we're doing the $10 bet, and
(ii) if we're getting rid of W/R.

I have the exact same feeling.

One or two people have sent in the $10, but that's it so far. I figure in order to be able to win the money, you need to pay.... so.................

And yes, I still think we should drop the W/R position.

kewl, ty for letting me know

I'll pay if we move the draft time, otherwise I am not going to be confident in autodrafting.

I don't want a $10 contest with five people, Sherlock.

I'll play for $10 but I won't have money to send until at least the 5th, so don't count me out. As far as the W/R position, I don't care one way or the other.

I'm in for $10 as well. I can draft any time except Friday and Saturday nights.

10:30 Wednesday is fine with me too.

I'm in for $10 as long as everyone else is.

Ok, do we have enough people for me to move it? I think that is 5 now...if we move it I am in for 10 bucks.

Sure, you're the boss - just do it.

As long as we are moving it BACK and not UP, I don't think it will be a problem.

I wonder how many no shows we're going to have.

I'd like to create a new league and have people who are still interested re-register.

I'm interested in playing (probably not for $10...) but I do have to work tomorrow at 7pm...so whenever I get out of work I'll be ready to do the draft.

If it starts before I get out of work, then I have a friend ready to keep an eye on it for me.

If we have to, I suppose...

At the very least, we should have a roll call. Let's get this list updated, figure out who's who, and kick out (or replace) any non responders. I'd much rather have a league with 10 interested teams than 10 interested teams and 4 guys running on autopilot.

So, here's the list. Speak up if you want to claim one of these teams. I'll bold the confirmations as they roll in and pay up. I recongize a few of these names, but I'm not positive who is who, so everyone who still wants to play, please:

1. Reply to this thread with your team name.
2. Send $10 to TalkingPoker on Stars.

When you've done both of the above, your name gets bolded and you are in. 24 hours prior to draft time (that's tomorrow night at 10:30 PM ET), unclaimed teams get booted from the league. Fair enough???

Ok, here is the list:

Bulldawgs - gtdawg (confirmed, but not paying)
Coolieo's Crushers -
Da Bears - jillaj
Dirty Birdz - thrash
Donquitas58 - Aeq
Funging Dominate - lightfungus
Gordogg's Chiefs - Gordogg
HolyMackerel - nflchad
LA Preds - omahilo (semi-confirmed)
Mr. Monday Night - GeoffM (semi-confirmed)
PokieOkie - drewjax (semi-confirmed)
Rogue - TP
RedskinsKMB - kmb
RushNAttack -BlibbityBlabbity

Let's go.

RushNAttack -BlibbityBlabbity

$10 sent

It looks like the draft times are all booked after 3 in the afternoon from now till opening day...so it stays at 9:30.

Aeq - you're not allowed to bitch any more if you're not even going to pay up yourself. :rolleyes:

Right now, we've got a 3 man league. Really hoping at least 5 more people confirm by tomorrow night.

I have to redownload stars to send you cash will do it by weds night or I can send it now at fulltilt. the draft on wednesday correct?

PokieOkie=Drewjax

I am in for $10. Dont have any money on stars right now, but I am planning on switching a little money around (from my meager roll). So if you dont have it by draft time you will have it soon thereafter, guaranteed. If you need it now, Bodog and Pacific are my only means.

Put me down for the money bubble.....Print it!!!!!!!

Claiming my spot! Money sent.

If we don't get a good turn out with all of those who already registered, it's incredibly easy to create a new league... :)

But not a new draft time....we would end up having to draft early in the morning or after the season started...kinda lame.

Yeah, but will we be able to get a draft time? Fungus says they are all gone. I think it would be easier to keep this league and just kick out the people who don't confirm - that should be easy enough, right?

BTW... if anyone who is registered doesn't want to pay, *I* am ok with that. You just won't be eligible for any money in the end. Of course, I'd rather everyone pay because then they will take it more seriously, but I also don't particularly want to play in a 4 team fantasy league.

I'm in for $10. I'll try and transfer the money tomorrow. I'll also be present for the draft.

Team name?

Mr. Monday Night. Stars screenname again?

Edit to add: My holdup is waiting for the Interpoker bonus to be credited before cashout (emailed support) and slow-ass River Belle to process my cashout (slowass). I usually got about $1,000 in Neteller but Mansion currently has that $1,000 :D . I'll get-r-done though, 1 way or the other I'll have that $10 to you before Thursday night's game.

dirtybirdz Paid.....!
$10 from trent1776 to TalkingPoker.

I'm in, HolyMackrel. Money Sent.

I don't know. I set up a Yahoo Fantasy Football league for my firm on Friday, and I had no problem setting up the Live Draft for when I wanted it. (Next Thurs. at 12:00p et.)

I didn't know the commissioner could kick teams out. If that's the case, then just leave it the way it is.

Oh, and by the way, I don't mind next year if we get enough interested people for setting this up on CBS Sportsline. It may cost an extra $10-15 per person, but it's the nuts when it comes to FF. :)

Nah, there are no decent times left. I setup a last minute pool and ended up having to draft after week 1.

I just wanted to bump/update this post so no one sees it. Currently, here is where we stand:


I'm guessing we'll be losing the Crushers and Bears. I don't mind giving the other guys the benefit of the doubt. sine we know who is who with them - and they played last year - we could PM them friendly reminders to visit this thread.

A 12 team league will be better than a 14 team league anyway.

I am Da Bears. I have been gone out of town for a few days but will still be in if I can.

Show me Da Money.

I can vouch for GTDawg, he will participate.

edit: actually he already verified, nm.

edit2: and I guess I will send money too, even though I will be on auto draft.

He hasn't paid. Maybe you should spot a brother 10.

I'm confirmed, you'll have the money as soon as I get a hold of my laptop.

I'm still unsure as to the draft time. Was it formally changed to 10:30 pm?

Im in... $10 right?

who do I send it too?

Yeah, only $10. I was on auto for the baseball pool but paid. Of course, if I hadn't made any moves and kept Jeter AND Beltran, I'd probably be a lot better off.

I will be on auto draft as well.

Does anyone actually READ this thread, or do we just keep asking questions over and over again that have been answered more than once already???

The draft is at 9:30, just like it says on our Yahoo page:


There were no other times to switch to until after Week 1, remember?

And the $10 needs to be sent to TalkingPoker on Stars.

The scoring system and everything else can be found at the Yahoo link.

Looks like someone just lost to a 3 outer on the river :(

I wasn't planning on paying the $10...

I don't have any money online and I don't plan on putting any money online. You can put someone else in the league if it's going to be a paying league.

I'll be at the draft, and you should have had my money a bit ago.

I'll leave this up to everyone else. I'm fine with you playing and not paying (and not being eligible for $ in the end, of course), but let's see what the others think.

Damn iwish i could be in this. Oh well next year :thumbsup:

Doesnt bother me either way.

I think there's a good chance you can have the "Coolie" spot if he doesn't chime in in the next few hours. Stay tuned and have your $10 ready.

Ok It's sent

TP, you'll have the $10 on Stars prior to the draft tomorrow night.

Here's a thought: why don't we have a private sitngo on Stars whilst we draft? I'm down for a $10 + 1.

Ok, we are 22 hours until draft time. Here is the list of who has paid up, or at least confirmed they want to play:

Bulldawgs - gtdawg (confirmed, but not paying)
Coolieo's Crushers -
Da Bears - jillaj
Dirty Birdz - thrash
Donquitas58 - Aeq
Funging Dominate - lightfungus
Gordogg's Chiefs - Gordogg
HolyMackerel - nflchad
LA Preds - omahilo (semi-confirmed)
Mr. Monday Night - GeoffM (semi-confirmed)
PokieOkie - drewjax (semi-confirmed)
Rogue - TP
RedskinsKMB - kmb
RushNAttack -BlibbityBlabbity

That's 8 teams that have paid, plus 3 more who have promised to pay. I have no problem waiting a few days for the funds from those guys. That leaves the following three teams:

Bulldawgs - gtdawg
Wants to play, but doesn't want to pay. I think we should let him play and just not be eligible for prize money in the end. Friendly like.

Coolieo's Crushers -
No response, hasn't logged in for a while, etc. I say we remove him from the league and replace him with juiCe[3x] who wants to play. Can you go ahead and do that, fungus?

Gordogg's Chiefs - Gordogg
Don't know why he hasn't responded/paid yet, but I'm sure he will. I just PM'd him.

I think that about wraps it up. If for some reason we don't hear from Gordogg by tomorrow afternoon, we could boot his team and not replace Coolieo's, so we'll still have an even number of teams. If that happens and juice has already paid, I'll either send the money back to him or we can let his paying self play and boot gtdawg. :D

Hopefully Gordogg will come through and we'll be all set for tomorrow night. See you girls at the draft.

Draft day boys. Will it be Bush, Mario Williams, or Vince Young :confused: :D .
