It's totally doable without work access. Just PM proxies to someone who will be on.

I'm in no hurry. I would support trying the draft with no clock (at least for the first few rounds), and only implement one if things get too slow.

My problem isn't putting in proxies so much as it's knowing the players and figuring out which groups I'll use for proxies. I've only played the 90s twice. I'll have to start studying tonight.

I don't know the 90s set, and I'll probably get killed in this league. But I love a good draft.

By the way, I know we can't have a 4 man rotation, but can we have 5+ SP and select starters for particular match ups?

The cool thing is you could draft the "best" players...but...since it's the mystery game...you never know...that's what makes it SO cool!!! :D

Awesome...welcome aboard Franky!

We'll be able to use tonight's lottery picks and we can start drafting after the draft order is set...

BTW, I know it's already filled but just to give a taste of what the league may be like, here's the final standings to the 80s version.

The league was won by tomjack and the Shelbyville Lemons, defeating AdamKatz and Adam's Family 4 games to 1.

Can someone post the standings and results of the 70s version? I was not in that one. I'm curious myself...

70's "All In The Family" league...

Franky beat Jen in 5 games in that league for the championship. I'm betting she'll be happy to find out Franky joined as our 12th man so she can work on a little payback... :D

I just reviewed the rules again and noticed Jen didn't specify the lottery order. So just for clarification purposes to keep everything official in her absence I will post it here...

The lottery picks will go HIGH to LOW. The highest number drawn tonight picks first etc. (which is how we've historically done it).

What was the site that compiles all the lottery numbers for easy lookup of tonights drawing?
