YountFan's NL Only League - Al Oliver IN

[Sykes25]

I was at a charity event today from 7am until about an hour ago when I got home. I will make my picks on both fronts within the next 10 minutes.

Sorry for the delay. Expected to have been home a few hours ago.

*EDIT* I'll take the Astrodome, leaving BC with Busch.

I like how natural the divisions feel and the rivials are there too. Cards/Cubs, Giants/Dodgers, Mets/Phillies, etc/etc

Maybe we can all name our team with the stadium name as in
Three River Forks
Olympic Moments
Veterans of Foreign Wars
Shea Hey Kids

Riverfront Rats
Busch Truck Series
Wrigley Doublemint Twins
Fulton County Steam Engines

Jack Murphy's Law
Dodger Blues
Candlestick Makers
Astrodome Astronauts

I had to pull these off the old boards (which in some ways was better)

Proxies.

There are four things that interact when you set proxies.

[b:572d5365e6]1. Round[/b:572d5365e6]
Set this to a number not equal to 1 to have the proxy execute in a specific round. ZERO means any round. I normally leave this zero.

[b:572d5365e6]2. Group[/b:572d5365e6]
A grouping number allow you to group players together. The groups are processed in numerical order. Typically groups are used for positions, like a SS group, but you can make a leadoff hitter group, etc.

[b:572d5365e6]3. Group Order[/b:572d5365e6]
This is the order within the group (#2 above) to pick. I like to number by 10 so I can slide people in between. Note penn only support order between 0 and 99.

[b:572d5365e6]4. Delete if group picked flag[/b:572d5365e6]
This tells penn to delete the group (#2 above) if YOU pick someone from the group. Set this to Yes most of the time so you don't pick 3 SS.

Example

[code:1:572d5365e6]
Round Group Order Delete Player
0 1 10 Y O Smith
0 1 20 Y UL Washington
0 1 25 Y I DeJesus
0 2 10 N B Horner
0 2 20 N D Kingman
0 2 30 Y R Kittle
[/code:1:572d5365e6]


In this example when it is your turn to pick penn will look at group 0 and pick the player with the lowest order that is left. Let's say Ozzie has been picked, so you get Washington. And because the delete flag is Y DeJesus is removed. Your proxies are now

[code:1:572d5365e6]
Round Group Order Delete Player
0 2 10 N B Horner
0 2 20 N D Kingman
0 2 30 Y R Kittle
[/code:1:572d5365e6]


At your next pick group 2 is left and lets assumes Horner, Kingman amd Kittle are all available. Penn will then pick Horner and remove Kittle because the delete flag is Y. Your proxies are now

[code:1:572d5365e6]
Round Group Order Delete Player
0 2 20 N D Kingman
[/code:1:572d5365e6]


Kingman will be your next pick if he is available.


[b:572d5365e6]Tips[/b:572d5365e6]
If you want to re-order yout proxies you do not need to remove the player from the list and re-added them. You can just enter the player id and the new setting and penn will move the player on the proxy list.

If you order your groups by 2's or 5's you can slide groups in between. Also penn support group ZERO so you can slide in a group at the top
