Cell is 614-738-2392. Would be nice to get a text thread going and that way, it's easier to post picks. Please post your pick in this thread and I'll update Fantrax when I can.

LINK - http://www.fantrax.com/fantasy/home.go?leagueId=x66otrd7iu8khtu2

RULES

Entry Fee
- $40 paid to me via Paypal at [email protected]
Rosters - 9 teams with 18 players each. 5 G, 5 F, 2 C, 3 FLEX players and 3 bench players. You will have the ability to set your lineup just like a regular fantasy league.
Player Pool - Players must be selected from the following conferences. Pac 12, SEC, ACC, Big East, AAC, Big Ten, Big XII, A-10, C-USA, Mountain West, WCC, Missouri Valley and Horizon. Each roster may have 2 players from conferences outside of these leagues.
Scoring - Scoring will be based on (PTSx1+REBx1.25+ASTx1.5+STLx1.5+BLKx1.5+TOx-1)=TOTAL/GAMES PLAYED=AVG. The highest AVG per week will receive 9 points, the lowest will receive 1 point, etc.
Minimum/Maximum Games - Since we are using average, the number of games played isn't a big deal. However, each position will be required to play a minimum of 1 game per week.
Substitutions - You may add or drop a player at any time, but once a player is dropped, you may not add that player back (other teams can) and the player replacing him must be within 5% of that player in production for the season (a post must be made in the weekly thread). There is a limit of THREE subs per season.
Regular Season - 14 weeks (starting games on 11/11 and running until 11/22) for the season, week 15 and 16 (2/20-2/26 for semifinals and 2/27-3/5 for finals)
Playoffs - The top 4 teams will make the playoffs and will follow a strict 1v4 and 2v3 format.
Payouts
$360 prize pool (winner $190, runner-up $75, regular season winner $25 and each weekly high scorer (14 weeks) $5)

Never got an email invite. Can probably just renew my team, but just a heads up.

Fantrax is updated with the snake draft order. I'm going to update it there. We didn't really update it past the first few rounds on the forums, so just pick there.

Can you post the conferences we are using again? I forget if we added or subtracted any from the WC list.

I've been too focused on NFL fantasy. Haven't really given any college ball much thought.
