Will be on the road for about the next 3 1/2 hours but can sign up after that, if you have spots open.

Is Draft day/time accurate? Fri (tomorrow) at 4pm EST?

Yes.

Can be changed accordingly.

I'd be interested in playing if I can make the draft...

…but I can’t make a Friday afternoon draft.

Any time after Friday 7:00 pm Central (8 EST) would work seeing as how I’ll be in front of a TV watching the NCAAs, but maybe that’s too late for anyone in EST zone?

Likewise, anytime Saturday afternoon/evening during the NCAAs would work as well.

I can change it to Saturday at 8.

No problem. Just need your e-mail.

What the heck happened, Unique?

Did someone hack into the league settings?

Last time I checked it was standard roto scoring with only two extra scoring categories – OBP and CGs. Now the league settings say it’s head-to-head (which I do not like) and all sorts of extra scoring categories have been added. Cycle? GWRBI? CS? (Theriot will never get drafted) Hits allowed? Quality Starts?

And the draft is now tomorrow (Sunday) instead of today? And I have no idea what that FA auction $200 is all about.

Sorry but I think I’m gonna take my ball and go home. I guess I’m being a bit of a jerk here and I apologize for that and the late notice, but this isn’t what I signed up for. And I’ve been pretty upfront in the other fantasy thread requests – I’ve asked if it’s H2H and if it is, I say thanks, but not interested.

H2H is just not my style and I would lose interest real fast. And I’ve been in enough leagues over the years to know that having inactive owners pretty much sucks the life out of a league. So I guess I’d rather be a jerk upfront and leave now, then to be an inactive PITA the whole season, and possibly be preventing someone else from being in the league.

Draft was changed to Sunday because I'm still waiting on the 3 invites

to join. I can change it. I’m used to Roto, but I had 2 others that were going to join and requested H2H, but since they still haven’t joined and I’ve had both you and 2 current members not being in favor of the current settings I will change it back to it’s original settings. Sorry for the confusion.

I explained the Free Agent Auction in the league. If need be, I’ll change that to what the league agrees with.

2010 is OUR year.

by Unique on Mar 27, 2010 12:04 PM CDT up reply actions  

Wow - if only my last boss had been this agreeable when I went in and asked for a raise... ;-)

In all seriousness, you shouldn’t change everything back just because I bitched a little. That’s not really fair to rest of league.

However, if the situation is as you described and others were not in favor of switching to H2H as well, then I’m happy things are back to the way they were and you can count me back in. I saw the re-invite email so I’ll go ahead and rejoin.

“see” you tomorrow night…

LOL.

People have so many opinions on Fantasy and I just made a knee jerk reaction. I agree though, I like it the way it was. I was just trying to make everyone happy. Some people that are in the league were in mine last year and they perfered H2H with custom rules.

You didn’t bitch. I completely understood your perspective.

2010 is OUR year.
