Well if I recall correctly, we always draft the Saturday before which would be Sept.5, really creeping up on us.

I'll have to automate my draft because I will be traveling on that day.  In fact, I'll be swamped all week before and all week after, so don't mind me or make any adjustments on my part.

Shit man the most fun I ever had in a draft was sniping Mason from you!

I'll set up a treasury address this weekend.  Let's figure out a number... I'm okay BTC0.001 or there abouts.  I recon the pot will get pumped to a healthy sum by the end of the season.

Cool beans, I'll correlate all the suggestions one week before draft so we have a week to vote.  

So get you suggestions in by Saturday guys.

I'm think 7pm EST 9/5 for draft time if anyone has issues with that bring it up before Saturday.

I dropped in discord a few times and posted but didn't see Chi, is he not coming to the board anymore?

If not then he can hand his suggestions and/or votes to someone to post them here.

Not sure what happened to the discord account, I did ind an old one I had "AbyNormal" iirc.


Oh and someone said wheels said he's playing but he hasn't pm'd me or dropped in the thread so lets get verification on that and his votes as well.

I think we had things locked down pretty good last year.  I liked that we gave defense points for negative yardage, so I vote to keep that.  I also like the idea of adding a flex position if we only have 8 players, that will keep the waiver wire a bit more interesting every week.

And let's punish ChiBitCTy for not paying his entry fee last year by having like 4 or 5 kickers.

As I said before I am ok with up to $75 entry fee. I don't think anyone else will have an issue with that amount either, seems to be a fair number and makes for $600 pool unless btc explodes like it has this week.

Chi has been posting at odd times in the discord, seems like once a week or so. He doesn't visit the forum any longer.

I am in agreement with 0.0001! September 5 is almost near! We should be ready before this. Also, when will the draft order be announced? This also brings to me much excitement!

@ChiBitCTy. How is he? He might be busy with something or someone hehehehe.

[ChiBitCTy]

Sup bitches! Life kicked me down (and continues to) so I needed a break from here , social media etc. but now I’m back to continue my fued w Hueristic , be an NFL know it all and hopefully kick all your asses in FF.  Jokes aside I missed this thread, all yall and thanking god my true love is almost back ..

That said .. I am surely not going to have time to read pages of yesterday and beyond ..where do we stand w the league.  Stuck at 8 ? (yahoo and Nut have kept me in the know a bit)

Cheers mofos, we’re almost to the glory days of the year 🙌

Go Bears

@bbc - you’re right.  Been dating Sydney Sweeney and man she’s a lot of work , but it’s worth it 😁

@wolf- bro, draft on your phone ! Auto draft is so whack. But if you’re truly unable to do so. I understand. (Drafts are like Xmas (as a kid) day for me , I’d draft at my best friends funeral, if necessary..but I have issues lol).

Edit - I’ll talk to Wheelz make sure he’s good to go

Edit : I have asked if I didn’t pay my entry fee 1k times in the discord , and never got a response - I of course will rectify that (whomever I owe it to plz message me on discord ). Also I will be drafting a K in round 1 for punishment , fair enough lol

[DireWolfM14]

Howdy Chi,
Good to see you back here.  Sorry to hear you're going through a tough time, I hope things get better for you.

I just checked my itinerary; I'll be stuck at O'Hare for 5 hours from 3pm to 8pm CDT, and I'll have my laptop with me.  If we can schedule between those hours I can draft with you guys.  I didn't realize my layover was that long.    Oh well, now I have something to do while I'm there.

[DireWolfM14]

Alright, boys, here's the escrow address for this year's Fantasy Football pot.

I know we haven't had time to vote on the fees, so I wen't with mBTC1, which is about $78 at the moment, aligning with Yahoo62278's recommendation.

Nice to see you back and almost feel bad about having to bitch slap your team again this year!

Edit : I have asked if I didn’t pay my entry fee 1k times in the discord , and never got a response - I of course will rectify that (whomever I owe it to plz message me on discord ). Also I will be drafting a K in round 1 for punishment , fair enough lol

Thats a damn good punishment but thats on DW to call, personally I think it's too harsh.
I thought you had paid but now that I think of it DW told me not to worry about it he'd get it and trusted you.
I'd say you lose your right to take your time paying and need to get the dues in before the league starts if you never paid him.

I just checked my itinerary; I'll be stuck at O'Hare for 5 hours from 3pm to 8pm CDT, and I'll have my laptop with me.  If we can schedule between those hours I can draft with you guys.  I didn't realize my layover was that long.    Oh well, now I have something to do while I'm there.

I'm sure we can accommodate that, I think we are thinking 7pmEST (which is right in there) but will have it in the vote list and will make note of your preferences.

glad to hear you can make it!

Really wouldn't be the same without you there.

so I went with mBTC1

I think everyone is fine with this, i'll put it in the vote as well.

Wtf is this shit .. (Coinomi)

That's weird,
I just sent my fees there:
https://mempool.space/address/bc1qsfcspfxu4v36d26kfvnqhfrl9plqd09u64ttah


ETA:
Just pulled out my hardware wallet, and confirmed the address belongs to the wallet.  I can sign transactions with it.

[ChiBitCTy]

Can we maybe try a different type of addy? I’ll pay extra to cover any subsequent TX’s ..sorry to be a pain in the arse , I’m not w my main wallets so that’s why using a hot. (I’m research if this is a common issue once I hit send on this post.

Actually I’ll edit this once I know if any known issues are going on. Trying to remember the last hot wallet that went defunct ..guess I should just move all coins to Coinbase , they are super duper trustworthy.

Oh and I can also pay in bitconnect if that’s cool? Ok nuff bs’n. (Wolf , will get back to ya soon, but sounds awesome!)

Edit - they don’t support taproot , fucks  (I’m stupid this is a segwit addy, wtf )

Why I constantly harp on the fact that “AI” does not exist. They are all shit   I can’t count how many times I’m given bad info. I’ll try this in a bit , gotta go feed my kitties , they are setting off my security cams like crazy lol

The address in my profile (the same one I used to sign the message above) will work.  I'll forward your payment to the escrow address.

BTW; I talked to my brother, if wheelz is in and we need a 10 player he said he'll play if you guys are good with that.  Otherwise, I'm fine inviting the enthusiastic newbie to join us.

I'll put your brother in the vote, but if you vouch for him thats more than good enough for me.

Breaking news:
Josh Jacobs has been placed on the NFL commissioner's exempt list as was announced on Sunday, with the Green Bay Packers running back was charged in relation to an arrest back in May.

That puts a bit of a twist on the Packers for this season. MarShawn Lloyd is probably going to take the RB1 in the depth chart. He was talented prospect when drafted 2 years ago and but was plagued with injuries. He seems to be good to go for the season but will be a risk with that health record and a question mark on the GB o-line as well.

IIRC MarShawn Lloyd sucked last year when he got the lead position just an FYI.

Less than a week before draft!

9 questions to vote on this year atm:

NOTE: If anyone votes no on the date or time then post what range you would be good for.

morvillz7z:
1) extra flex spot with less than 10 teams.
2) Draft Date Saturday before kickoff works for me, September 5th.  *if this fails the vote we can have a separate vote for the date with a wider range but every seemed to like this previously.
3) if someone goes inactive for whatever reason, the commish could set their lineup based on the app (highest projected points) for the rest of the season, this excludes waiver wire activities.

Hueristic:
4) Draft time is EDT 7pm.  *if this fails the vote we can have a separate vote for the date with a wider range but every seemed to like this previously.
5) two extra flex spots with less than 10 teams. *this would supersede the previous vote of 1, so voting yes to both is fine as one can pas yet not the other.
6) one extra flex spot with less than 12 teams
7) Any player with a QB designation can only play in a QB slot - No Taysom Hill wildcards.
8 ) Let the n00b take over a team if it goes inactive?

DireWolfM14:
9) I talked to my brother, if wheelz is in and we need a 10 player he said he'll play if you guys are good with that.




Comments that relate to the time and date chosen that were taken into consideration when choosing date/timeslot to vote on:

Nutildah:
Yes, I'm also good with whatever/whenever. Oh, just not morning east coast time, please.

I have no objections to whatever you guys want to do as far as the flex spots or whatever goes, as far as your brother joining goes, I am ok with it as long as we aren't seeing some weird trades between the brothers happening. I don't foresee that being an issue as I feel you @DireWolfM14 have great integrity and we all trust you but I did feel like it needed to be said. I am also ok with the Noob playing as long as they pay the fee.

[DireWolfM14]

I am ok with it as long as we aren't seeing some weird trades between the brothers happening.

We're typical competitive brothers, so if anything, I'd be afraid he might be trading with you guys to undermine me.
