I have a queston about 2005. I recently bought 5 credits but the latest league I joined has taken longer than usual to fill up. Normally when I draft a team it has usually been drafted that night. My last draft was on Tuesday and I am still waiting for the final spots to be filled. Does this happen every year at the end of the season? Am I going to have to wait weeks and weeks, if not longer, to be able to use my credits?

Also, how do I go about joining a private league? I have seen them when picking my team but have no idea how to get into one. Would this be a better option over the winter?

Hi Shankly,

To join a private league you have to sign up for the league while it is forming and then whoever forms the league will send you the password.

Also, yeah toward the end of the season and before the new cards come out things do tend to slow down around here.

When private leagues form they'll often advertise here on the forums. There are several open now and all you have to do is sign up for them. You might also check the Tour league forum. The final round (round 7) leagues are forming now and they sometimes need additional players to complete leagues. Like the Tour leagues, most private leagues have some kind of theme and special rules associated with that theme.
