Yeah, Im going to post the order before the Big East tourney starts that Wednesday. Hopefully we can get round 1 in before Sunday. That will be a no penalty timeframe with no pick being required. So hopefully everyone has a player they want in round 1 without them being on the bubble.SportsAndLady;1086550 wrote:Oooooh okay..that makes sense.
Would be sweet if we could get it all done Sunday night haha but that'd be wishful thinking.

Yea if i'm not mistaken, we did that last year and we got in a round before Sunday, right? (I've been in one of these w/ my friends since '08, so maybe it was that league we got all our picks in before Sunday?)Laley23;1086559 wrote:Yeah, Im going to post the order before the Big East tourney starts that Wednesday.

Also, we should pick our players based on credibility. The biggest problems we ran into the last two years we've done this on here is posters that we don't really know just not showing up.
Perhaps gather up all the "in's" and then pick the participants based off post count or credibility?

We could just get backups and hand off teams if a poster misses more than two consecutive picks or something.

Shoot. I just realized I'm gonna be on spring break starting Selection Sunday. I'm gonna have to make a pretty extensive draft list ahead of time.

1 Spot left. And S&L, I agree about the issues with some posters. But so far, I think all 19 are pretty regular around here. So, it should be too big of an issue. Helps I am starting it before March when the traffic picks up here with people who dont frequent the forum.

Throw huskers in there. He did it last year and I know he'll want to play again.

Az dominated. He was already up by like 60 going into the championship game, and he had Kemba.

Wow, looking at the list of posters so far, this is gonna go great.Laley23;1086591 wrote:1 Spot left. And S&L, I agree about the issues with some posters.

Maybe we should look at expanding to 25?

Yah I was hoping Kemba got sick the night before and Lamb had the game of his life! Wishful thinking.

Ill think about it. If we get 5 alternates and they look solid. It does make it much tougher to get through all the rounds though.SportsAndLady;1086670 wrote:Wow, looking at the list of posters so far, this is gonna go great.

Yes. Right after I told him that I signed him up for it. But he did say that he wanted to be in.

I think 25 is too many. 30 extra players (if we do 6 rounds)? Eh, I'm cool on that. I think 20 is the best number. Just my 2 cents

Alright. Thats the 20. If we get 5 solid alternates we can add them. Otherwise, just stick to them picking after someone misses 2 picks.killer_ewok;1086711 wrote:Yes. Right after I told him that I signed him up for it. But he did say that he wanted to be in.

Looks like you got a full lineup...but I'd like to throw my name in as an alternate. I was in last year and it was fun.

Yeah I kinda agree..I just don't wanna see people who've done it the past two years not get in because they don't frequent the site as much and didn't get in on time.
