GRB Fantasy Football 2012/13 Redraft

Post by AdmiralKird »

Is everyone OK with a redaft for the fantasy football league?

I was the only one to attend the draft last Friday, everyone else was busy or wasn't there. We also started the league this year with only ten teams rather than the usual twelve.

We can do the draft tonight, Tuesday the 11th, or Wednesday the 12th, or Thursday we can do it before the Chicago/GB game starts at 7:30 CST, say around 6pm. We could also do it sometime Saturday and I can retroactively adjust the stats to include Thursdays game but I would rather avoid this.


Let me know which times you are available, since there isn't much time to plan a redraft, our best chance would be to have it Thursday the 13th @6pm. If anyone can't make it for this team or would like one of the times listed above that is sooner, let me know.

Also, it appears we left out TFG who was 1st From the Bottom last year. I pm'ed him and gave him the opportunity to come back if he wanted as a #13, for a number #14 I pm'ed Lesson, who made overtures to join two years ago, and Redbirdjazz, who were The Rabid Ducks in the 2011 season.
--------------------



Benefits:
Richie Allen and Heinz Guderian will join the league as teams #11 & #12
Expansion to 14 Teams with TFG as #13 & Lesson/Redbird/Other as the #14
Managers will get a chance to draft, rather than playing with the autodraft's picks.

Negatives:
Not a lot of time to plan a new draft
Lose week 1 stats and current rosters

Wildcards:
The draft rankings will be off, since I believe we would still be using pre-week 1 rank projections.

Voted yes not because I got my ass kicked in week one, but it would be good to have more teams.

Because I'm not sure how much time it'll take me to reset everything and we'll have to allow some time to get the other 2, 4 teams added, I'll have to proceed immediately with reseting the league once/if we get a 50%+1 majority. I would like it to be a 2/3 majority or unanimous, but because of time constraints I don't think that will be possible.

- Let me know what your votes are in the response to this thread, like Hound Dog did, also please clarify if you can make Thursday at 6pm in the reply.
- Richie Allen, Heinz, TFG, Lesson/Red will be given half votes since you aren't already in - so if one of the five of you votes in the poll please let me know.

Current we have two members who have voted in this poll, me and Hound Dog; Jack & letsgocards have also voted yes, but they haven't responded about draft times yet.
Edit: TFG just responded to me saying he's in, but he hasn't responded here yet.


Current Vote Standings:
2.5 votes to reset the draft for Thursday @6pm
2 votes to reset, not responded on times

4.5/12 Total Votes For
0/12 Total Votes Against
---

I will send out pms & e-mails once/if the reset gets underway while teams join with a tentative draft time. I will also send out an additional pm & e-mail once the teams are all added and the draft time is locked in. Current point totals and rosters will be cached from week 1 in case something goes awry.

I wasn't planning on making the draft, so I autoranked. I'm happy. Would do same thing for Thursday, but would prefer not to redraft. We did it late as it was...

6pm is a little early for me (I have two young kids)...9pm would work better.

If it has to be at 6...I'll just autodraft.

I also did a little auto ranking, and am happy with my team. I am unable to make anything this week.

I voted no redraft, since I doubt i'll be able to make the new one. But I don't care either way.
