Let's sort this out please and not make it last minute! Judging from people's responses, it'll definitely need to be over the weekend.

This is what it seems like, which leaves next weekend preferably, or the night before Week 1.

Next weekend, Yoshifan823 can't do Saturday and LittleFuryThings might not, and Hixalot can't do Sunday. So someone's gonna screwed, I guess.

That was this Sunday I couldn't do. I can do next Sunday if that works for everyone else.

Oh my bad. I saw "next two Sundays" and thought it was between last week and today for some reason. So the draft is at some point a week from tonight, probably!

Okay here's what I'm thinking for payout structure. Nobody opposed an increase, and those in favor are good up to $20, which would make for a $320 pool :moneybags:

Of that, the champion gets $160, 2nd place gets $50, and $25 for 3rd. With the remaining $85, $5 goes to the team the leads the league in points each of the 13 weeks of the regular season, and if you score the most points over the course of the entire regular season, you get your :20bux: buy-in back.

BTW that's weeks 1-13 for regular season, from which each division winner and 4 wild cards make the playoffs. Week 14 is for the divisional round, week 15 for the "conference" round (apparently there's no conference feature on ESPN, smh), and weeks 16 and 17 for the championship.

In terms of scheduling, I am a weird nerd and I want to set this dumb poo poo up myself again. {it's because I must have control over anything and everything when schedules got hosed up last season and I had to reconfigure myself I realized it was a decent idea despite the assload of :effort:) So, weeks 1-3 and 11-13 are reserved for division games, in a dumb attempt to create late-season playoff races, while weeks 4-10 are for randomly generated non-division games, because there ain't poo poo else I can do with seven games without some conference system that would arbitrarily defined anyway.

I think that covers everything, but it probably doesn't.

I went with 8:30 actually. Don't know what time zones we're covering but hopefully it's a good balance for all. It's gonna be a marathon, though... anybody happen to remember how long we went last year?

e: I checked the thread somehow it was only two and a half hours. I guess it really speeds up towards the end when you can nominate and win a guy unopposed

As long as I can deliver payouts in a reasonable amount of time this year! Though if I had someone to pass the blame on to, that would be also be better than last year's, so

For some reason (like 100 extra picks compared to a 10-team league) I thought it took an ungodly amount of time, though I may be thinking of another gigantic league I was in, and we were just expecting it to take forever. Considering I did a 10-team tonight in an hour and a half (granted, 19 keepers probably helped with that) I'd be pretty happy with two and a half for us.
