I'm looking forward to this, so the lottery for when we pick is on July 26?

Yes -- haven't figured how i'm gonna do it yet, but will post something by the end of the week.

Yoki is the name did it one year and created a video for it. Maybe he can help out in some way like that this time.

Who could forget -- that has a place in the CB Draft Hall of Fame for sure!!!

I did a drawing using Random.com and did a screen video of it. Which is how i'm leaning... we'll see.

Picking it straight out from the hat? I'm down.

Assign the teams and I will start making little cards with the team name and user name/GM on it and I will start filming on a lottery on a hat.

And it will be as unprofessionally filmed as it was last time. But no Edgar to DOOM us, so it'll be good.

Unfortunately, I'm going to have to pull my name out for one of the GMs and let one of the alternates have it. I just found out that I'll be traveling across the country on Monday August 1st and Tuesday August 2nd for some family and conference stuff, which I think are two of the main days of the draft. I'd rather be present and doing everything actively rather than just giving a list to someone to draft for me, so hopefully I'll be able to catch this the next time around that we do it! I apologize for any inconvenience this might cause.

If you change your mind I am off in August and can draft for you until you return (assuming you send a list to me).

JPotter33 you, of course, have to do what's right for you, but keep in mind that using the results of Tuesday's lottery, we're selecting draft slots.

You might end up with a slot at the front or back of the 1st round where you'd be able to submit a list to another poster to pick for ya.

So you might want to see how the lottery & Round A plays out then bow out... but again, it's your call!

Pretty sad that this has to be included:

6. Any attempt to create dummy accounts or otherwise inflate vote totals with inactive accounts will not be tolerated.

Has someone really done that to win a make believe championship?

I've never seen that before after playing for 3 seasons.

I think it's just a precaution.

First of all, HOW DARE YOU SIR!!!!!

"make believe championship?!?!" You must never have been internut famous!

hahahahahhahhaa.

Yeah, this was just copied from the 2013 rules. I think there was some nonsense around who was voting, etc.

And you'd be surprised, CF508, how far some folks 'round here would go, how "too far" they take these fantasy drafts/leagues. Then how big a flame war they turn someone telling them to chill out into. It's sad really.

But this year is gonna be great.



right?  :-\ RIGHT?!?!  >:(
