FF13: Official GWJFFL 2013 signup and discussion thread

Thanks, I didn't even realize there was a message board. I'm still getting used to Fleaflicker. By the way, ew, fleaflicker uses Java for its draft app?

Wife had other plans for last night. Links coming this afternoon. Sorry for the delay

Grump, I just noticed your whenisgood link is following the 2012 calendar. I'm assuming you mean it to follow the days of the week and not the actual dates, so that's what I picked for.

Edit - I'm an idiot, it's because I was actually using last years link. Great start to the season, Evo.

Ok, links are posted to the message board(s). I think I remember to click "email the league" for each one I posted, too. Please remember that we're trying to coordinate a time for 12 people in 4 time zones. Please be as flexible as possible. Mark all times that are possible for you, not just when is best. Be sure to include your name and make note of the unique link that it gives you once you've submitted your answers so that you can edit them later if need be.

Keeper folks, PM me your keepers and I'll make sure they're on the rosters at ESPN so that you can flag them before the draft.

Selected anytime as good.

Thanks for setting all this up, Grump.

Remember, people, that the rosters at ESPN haven't changed since last season's draft. Rosters and keeper prices are found here, and you can also find rosters (but not keeper prices) on Fleaflicker, of course.

I will have mine done in the morning

Decent progress for a couple hours:

GWJFFL D-II Draft 2013 [s]7[/s]8 so far GWJFFL D-I Draft 2013 4 so far GWJFFL Dynasty Draft 2013 [s]7[/s]8 so far GWJFFL Keeper Draft 2013 7 so far GWJFFL Pro Draft 2013 [s]6[/s]7 so far

Keep it up, folks.

Edit: Had a couple more come in while I was looking things over. With the numbers above, D-II already has no date/time that works for all who've voted. Dynasty and Keeper both have only one night that is still green. D-I has times on 3 nights and Pro has 5 nights still green.

Remember folks, I'll work to accommodate as many as possible but it's rare that we get 12 people on at the same time (though 10 or 11 is fairly common). 1) Please be as flexible as possible in your voting and 2) set up your auto-draft lists (since you never know if your ISP will choose draft night to go down).

Dynasty Keeper Question:
Does a player placed on IR count toward the maximum number of keepers?

IR and keepers are separate concepts.

A player is a keeper if you mark them as one of your keepers. Whether their roster spot is in the active roster (starting lineup and bench) or IR is immaterial.

Or, yes.

Thank you, sirs.

Any deadline for keepers right now? As long as we're not drafting tonight or something I'll have time to get them to you so you can mess around in ESPN.

ASAP will do.

Are we using ESPN for all of our drafts or just for the Keeper auction draft?

ESPN is only for the auction draft, as Fleaflicker does not provide the capability.

$5 says Legion gets Kapernick in 75% of his draft leagues.

You don't know how much it hurts to not have grabbed him in Dynasty.

Granted, I took Aaron Rodgers #1 overall and turned my attention elsewhere, but to not have Kaepernick on my dynasty roster is just shameful.

I missed him in my non-GWJ league draft this week. I could have kept him from last year, but we only get one keeper and keeping any QB in the first round is just impossible for me to justify. Still thought I would get him, but damn autodraft...

Trying to work out a trade but it seems unlikely.

I'm still happy about that move on my part.

The worst part is, with Aaron Rodgers, I can't justify offering a trade to try and get him. Unless I was moving Rodgers as part of the deal.

Come on D-1! Supposed to be a bunch of people who have been through this before and moved up the ranks. Sheesh.

The first two leagues to get all their draft night polls in are D-II and Pro.

D-II: Sunday, 9/1 at 10pm Eastern/9pm Central/8pm Mountain/7pm Pacific
Pro: Tuesday, 9/3 at 9pm Eastern/8pm Central/7pm Mountain/6pm Pacific

Both slots had only 1 person for whom the time was not good but I put the time as close as possible to a green time for them so hopefully a half-hour or hour earlier will be something to which they can adjust.

Keeper is missing only 1 vote (Edit: *cough*Blacksheep*cough*) while Dynasty and D-I have 9 and 7, respectively. Speaking of Keeper, if you've sent me your keepers, I've made sure that they're on your rosters at ESPN. Please remember to log in over there and flag them at your earliest convenience so I can assign their auction values.

We're in the home stretch now, folks; let's wrap it up.

Thanks.

Edit: I've just added the drafts as events in the Steam Group so there will hopefully be a pop-up reminder (if your Steam client is running at the time, anyway). Let me know if you need/want an invite.

Way to go D-II!! Thank god for Holiday Monday.

Now time to set up my rankings/cheat sheet.

D2 at 7 Pacific tempts me to grab some Pax tickets on StubHub for Monday.

Hrm...
