All About the Benjamins Tournament thread

I guess we have no choice about the old boards since there is no longer a link to it.

Yes, that's the plan, YF. Go ahead and put your team in whenever.

We just need to have one manager be the responsible one in League 2's Western Division to fill on Sept. 11. Any volunteers out of: toobig, nycalderon, IM Bacchus, or Sogcomando ?

DJ,

I can't remember the deal here -- do we do a whole new autodraft, or are we supposed to use the same players as we had in the Royals Stadium league?

Sorry to be redundant here -- I Hate this new board -- it is NOT user friendly, AND we lost all our old info from the old boards :x

sean - it's a brand new autodraft...

dj - what do u need from a western div manager... i should be able to help...

[size=18:c691b00e6a][b:c691b00e6a]Why the 11th?[/b:c691b00e6a] The 9th allows the league to start on the 12th. The 11th means it will not start until the 19th.[/size:c691b00e6a]

Here is the link to the old boards. Better bookmark it! [url]http://forums.sportingnews.com/6/ubb.x[/url]

DJ needs some one in the west to delay entering their team until the 11th (I think the 9th). This way I can enter my team and start the league, but you control when the league fills so that I will be around for the waivers and such. (I will be out of touch Wed-Sat).

But as I said before if we fill on Sunday (11th) the league will not start until the 19th. But if the 19th is the plan then there is no need to enter teams until nect week.

[size=18:23a7664bf1]DJ, is the 19th the planned start date?[/size:23a7664bf1]

I can take care of that ... just let me know what date the league should fill...

[djtrickster]

September 12 is (was) the date that we were going to BEGIN filling the leagues with the following Monday (Sept 19) being the date when the league would start. Although I never stated the 19th specifically I did say the following Monday.

There are two reasons for filling on the 11th:

#1) There are 24 managers playing and everyone has agreed to the schedule already. Let's not get into moving dates around again for Round 2, I don't want to take the chance that someone is away at this late date. It will just get frustrating and confusing.

#2) Like you said, YF, this way you can be around for waivers which is probably going to be very important in this tournament.

I hate adjusting to new things too especially when the old board was working just fine (kind of). However, I'm not interested in taking a chance that while we're protesting to TSN they decide to completely get rid of the old boards and we're in the middle of organizing the start of Round 3 or 4. That's just asking for more frustration and confusion.

Thanks, NYC. Fill the league on the 11th.

[nycalderon]

11th it is...

Ugh. My computer at home keeps crashing every 5 minutes. This sucks. I was in the middle updating the regular season standings. I'm going to have to figure out what's wrong with this thing before I do the rankings. Sorry guys.
