I just signed up for the 2006 game and have no clue what to do.

I drafted my team and all, but when it came time to choose a league there are only 5-6 of them with any managers currently signed up and none are even halfway full.

Did I waste my money and if so can I get it back?

If you joined an autoleague (no password required) it usually takes a night or two, maybe more on occasion) for the league to "fill." Be patient, you'll get to the draft soon enough.

Remember, if the league fills by midnight on Friday (EST), the first games will start Monday night. This won't give you much time to work with your roster. Maybe if it takes a few days to fill and you can start next week, it wouldn't be such a bad thing.

GL with your first effort!

Thanks for the reply.

By nature I'm a very patient person I guess I was just a bit uneased by the fact that there were so few leagues. I'll take your word for it and hang in there, just wanted to know if it was normal to see so little variety in league options.

The standard $80 million leagues fill quickly. If you chose one of the other options, you may need to be [i:008e97318f]very[/i:008e97318f], [i:008e97318f]very[/i:008e97318f], [i:008e97318f]very[/i:008e97318f] patient. Some of those $60 million leagues are from like last April.

Good to know, I'll change mine over to an 80 million.

Thanks again.
