placidcasual Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 I don't want to pollute the MLB thread with this all year. We've got seven runners as it stands. Looking for one more. After that, it'll be pairs in only to keep it at an even number of teams. @Cowshed Chris intimated that he was probably going to sign up so that would give us eight. I've provisionally set the draft up for Sunday 26th March at 8.00pm. I don't think it will take much longer than 90 to 120 mins. If there's a consensus to shift it to a different date then we can figure that out. Dynasty format, 20 keepers so if you're having a shite season there's always the incentive to try and build your team. From experience with Ginger Saint's excellent NFL dynasty league that will generally keep interest levels up. Other than that, the rules/scoring etc can be found on the league page at FleaFlicker.

calum_gers Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 Scotland v Slovenia is at 19.45 on the 26th and I'll be there so I can't draft then I'm afraid. Can you autodraft? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
placidcasual Posted February 17, 2017 Author Share Posted February 17, 2017 That's probably not the best night to draft then. I'll shift it to 19th. There is an autodraft but if it's anything like fleaflicker's nfl one, it's laughably bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

placidcasual Posted February 27, 2017 Author Share Posted February 27, 2017 Still looking for one more for this. The draft is set for 8pm on Sunday 19th March. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dee4Life1893 Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Yeah, I'll try this. I've done fantasy baseball maybe 10 years ago. Before I played NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
placidcasual Posted February 27, 2017 Author Share Posted February 27, 2017 Brilliant. So if we get any more entrants now, unfortunately it'll need to be in pairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SamuraiJock Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 10 will make for a better league now so well done all. Unfortunately, i've got another league doing a live auction the same night as this draft so might have to double-dip and probably make an arse of both. I've never used FleaFlicker before - is it decent? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never used FleaFlicker before - is it decent? I really like FF as far as NFL goes. It's a lot better than Yahoo. Again though, I've seen some absolutely ridiculous auto-drafts from those leagues so it might be worth ranking your players if you're auto-drafting.

Dee4Life1893 Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 Just realised this is a dynasty league. Are we allowed to trade picks and is the current draft order confirmed? Would we not be better doing this as an email draft to allow trades to happen? I understand there is only a few weeks till the season starts but we could have a strict time limit for picks in place.

placidcasual Posted March 16, 2017 Author Share Posted March 16, 2017 The draft order is confirmed. It's a snake so it's fair enough for everyone. You can trade picks but not sure what value there is in that before the draft. There's definitely no time for an email draft. I'd have preferred that myself but you know what that's like. The season starts in two weeks. You're looking at getting a full round done every day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll get 2 of the first 11 players and lots of time between picks to browse for who you want as well. I'm pick 5 - tricky one as I reckon half a dozen players could go 5th.
