The following people need to reclaim their team by the end of this week. Let me know if you need me to resend the invite.

-Bridge Troll, Manasia, TheLakeLander, & Steve

We have one spot still to fill. If you would like to play, please post in this thread. I will throw all the names in a hat and make a random selection on August 6. Please don't ask to play if you will not be committed all year regardless of how your team is performing.

Assuming Steve is going to reclaim his team by Monday it looks like there will only be one spot available. So far two people have posted that they are interested. If you would look to get in the raffle to play, please post it in this thread by Sunday.

Steve has yet to sign up, but he said that he is playing this year. Since he has been traveling for his job recently, I am giving him another week to sign up. There were only two people, Jason and Nemo, that showed interest in filling any empty spots. I put their names in a mini Steeler helmet I have on my desk and drew out Jason's name. Jason please DM me an email address to send the invite to.

Nemo, if Steve doesn't sign up, I will contact you to take his place.

Nemo you're in. Another spot just opened up - Lucasjj's.

Everyone else, we need to vote for a new commissioner ASAP.

The Engineers have arrived to training camp. Let the systematic destruction of all that face them begin.

Steve signed up last night so the league has been filled and the teams are locked. I set the draft order and assigned each team's keeper to their pick, so you can ignore any message or deadline about selecting your keeper.

As of now the draft is set for 4:00 PM on Sunday August 26th. If you cannot make it, then the computer will autodraft for you. If people have a suggestion for another time, voice it here so we can work something out.

Lucas, before the draft, do we have to do something to the settings to make sure that everyone who was retained under the "keeper" option doesn't enter the draft?

Lucasjj · August 07, 2012, 12:56:47 PM

No, no one has to do anything. I went through this morning and set the draft order and put all of the keepers in for each team in the round they are valued at. So for instance in your case, Laurent Robinson will not show as an available player, but when it comes to your pick in round 14 it will automatically draft Laurent Robinson for you.

So not only will people who are live drafting need to know who was taken as keepers for strategic reasons, but also your picks are going to come up quicker in certain rounds since you will not be waiting for a person to think through their pick and use the allotted time.
