Munich Man's 12-League ATGIV Invitational

[ArrylT]

So let me know if I am drafting 5th or 8th this season. :? I'll continue to work on a team, but will hold on posting it until this is cleared up so that if I am actually 8th I don't pick out of turn - or give away my draft plan. ;)

[ArrylT]

Finally - I cannot get into the draft site. I've tried the default pwd of test that MajorDeegan suggested about 5x now and no success. So even after the draft order confusion is cleared up I will still need someone to post agabriels team - because I don't know who he picked since i do not have access.

Arryl, you draft fifth. the first colum is the first season, 2nd is 2nd season, etc. Next season, you draft 10th, then 7th, and so on.


For some reason, I can't access the draft site, so I have no idea who adrian picked.

[ArrylT]

Ok thanks MM - sorry - not used to these more complex draft setups - just didnt want to draft out of turn. :oops:

Still working on my team - able to access draft site under AT (but that doesnt help obviously) but no acces under ArrylT.

I've tried both ArrylT and ARRYLT and done the test pwd in caps and no caps and no success - so I'll just keep working on the team and hope that gets sorted out on its own. :)

I reset the arrylt password to 'test'. It's not case-sensitive. I've posted my team in the draft thread.

[ArrylT]

Ok I am now able to access draft site and will have team finalized within next hour or so. :)

[ADRIANGABRIEL]

We won't be able to draft stadiums so you'll need to declare them here.

And please consider joining the Threes up the middle theme. Thank you.

They will be backed by some of the most fiersome RH sluggers ever known to mankind:

Couple of closing thoughts. ;)

1 - I missed out on 2 players - M. Litell & V. Coleman. Otherwise very happy with my draft.

2 - I have a feeling that the middle picks (4-8) are going to have the chance to do very well. They'll have the knowledge of at least one of their divisionmates and should have a deep enough pool to do something about it.

3 - I am not ashamed to admit I built my team to try and take advantage of MM. I picked a park that would hurt him, and put a team together that I feel should do very well at home and still take advantage of the 10 BP HR roll at MMs park.

4 - I did keep the '57 theme going in the Central. I hope those who pick 8th & 11th will also pick a '57 park. ;)

5 - MM: you can have all the doubles you want - just don't try to turn them into triples or to try and score on a single from 2B as my OF [b:1e96bcc3d6][u:1e96bcc3d6]will gun YOU down![/u:1e96bcc3d6][/b:1e96bcc3d6] :P

6 - My pitchers will try to avoid beaning anyone who brings a case of good beer when they visit. :D [/b][/u]
