Dracula division is still scheduled for:
Draft Date: Tue Jul 9 2019, 11:00PM EDT

(PM instead of AM)

Also, weird thought: the dracula div homepage says it has 12 of 60 people joined. Will the draft even begin if the league isn't full? On some sites, the league must be full to draft. May want to adjust max players on the draft sites?

It let me finalize the draft order, and doesnt allow the max teams to be reduced. It should be good.

Regarding scoring, Google 2019 fish bowl scoring and itll be explained. I'll make an adjustment to explain it in the OP but right now I'm doing some housework

Will fix draft time later

No thanks needed, consider this league my Thank You for tolerating us spamming football absurdity links when we were getting it going in 2017

Oh and I should link the sfb's charity, in case anyone wants to donate. It does good work for kids and I think 100% of the donations go to charities.

One more day! I'm so excited that I peed a little

Also here's the scoring explained in a better way than by checking the fantrax settings:
Normal.0.5 ppr scoring except:
- 6 pts per passing td
- -4 per int
- -2 more if the int is returned for a td
- 0.5 per first down rushing or receiving
- TEs get double first down and PPR bonus so 1 point per first down and 1 ppr
- 5 points bonus for every 300 yards passing, every 50 yards rushing, or every 50 yards receiving WHAAAAAAAAT?! (This is big)

Do you have to declare a player's position when you draft them? It just asked me to confirm CMC's position. I picked RB, but does that mean I couldn't flex him if I wanted to? Not an issue with first rounders, but that would be a problem later.

I bet that just determines how its listed in your draft picks list. Weird, but tou can def flex him later

Same same.

Might as well roll with him when he gets a scoring premium. Definitely the only league I'll own him in.

I gotta run for a couple hours but I'll pick tonight if I'm up, for sure.

Tough with 60 people in drafts ... some people just seem to forget they signed up for the league and need poking!

I’m riding in a car at the moment but am going Kittle at 1.10 dracula. TE is just stupid good in this format and they should all go way over fantrax ranking/adp.

heh, okay I can see how that phrasing may be interpreted differently. What I meant was that TEs should be drafted way before their fantrax ranking/adp (fantrax's draft ranks are useless for fish bowl scoring format and its projections are off too).

I just got home and drafted Kittle.

Click on the three line menu button, then click the down arrow on the draft league and draft room will be there.

It's weird, with a 22 round draft, the waiver wire is gonna be thin. In many leagues I can rely on playing matchups with bench/waiver wire TEs and discovering a useful starter midseason (hello Eric Ebron!). But in this league, those waiver guys simply won't be available. So you gotta have a prime starter.

e: that's on top of TEs having the insane double PPR and PPFD scoring

It took me forever to figure out how to access the draft room too. Look like I'll go with Adams. Going in blind with zero research and trusting on luck and hope for this league.
