I've signed up with ESPN and I believe I'm all caught up with this thread. Is everyone on board with the 0.0015 BTC buy in? I'm fine with it and I would suggest DireWolfM14 as escrow, if he agrees of course.
Edit: added a zero.

I think you inadvertently increased the buy-in by a factor ten. We're not all rockstar rich like you suchmoon. I like the number 0.0015 because it lends to a round payout figure, and its also the maximum I'm willing to put down. There's still a loooong way to go between now and Week 1 so we have plenty of time to come up with a number. The price of BTC may change a lot between now and then though... What does everyone else think?

I also signed up with espn, played fantasy football last year with nfl.com and yahoo but i'm sure espn is just as good. - 1.5mbtc entry fee is fine by me (or anything up to $100 in BTC) - draft date/time, i have a pretty flexible schedule, i'll make sure to be at the draft. A snake live draft a week/few days before the start of the season is optimal. @South Park, hit me up with that invite link, thanks!

Dang it, yes I did. Bitcoin is too damn expensive, can't keep up with the zeros. Anyway, I'm fine with the 0.0015 BTC.

0.0015BTC is fine with me, that's reasonable amount to lose, lol. I don't mind providing escrow if there are no objections, happy to help.
Live drafts are always fun, but I know we're scattered across the globe so it might not be practical. If we were to take a vote I'll vote for a live draft.

I'm not sure about ESPN but I remember setting up a list a few years ago so that if I missed the draft it would be used instead of the default so you guys might want to do that just in case something comes up.

Where are the user manuals and the instructions for this? I registered but I do not know how to play this game so prefer to pay the lower fee for this donation hehe.
News update on Aaron Rodgers. He did not go to the Packers’ training camp. It is becoming quite clear that he will leave. He is lucky he is not in Texas where tough owners might find rape cases to use against him hehehehe.

The league is almost full the only one left to register is wheelz1200, everyone else is already in and if I might add you have selected some very interesting names for your teams. Where are the user manuals and the instructions for this? I registered but I do not know how to play this game...
The first step is to learn how the draft works, here is the link to the mock draft lobby where you can see how this works and experience first hand how the whole thing will work in the case we do a snake live draft, right now the only difference is that you have less time to draft than the current settings so a whole mock draft could last between 30 to 40 minutes, and do not worry you are not the only one playing fantasy football for the first time, I am on the same boat. https://fantasy.espn.com/football/mockdraftlobby?ex_cid=FFL2019_FantasyIndexNavMockLobby

I highly we suggest we do a live draft as its much more fun and competitive that way. If we can get a "quorum" of 5/8 players agreeing to a live draft, we should definitely do it. If you miss the live draft, its not the end of the world so long as you set your autopick lineup (so the computer chooses your next-most desired player still available, according to your ranking list, in your absence). If you really want Tom Brady on your team (LOL probably still true after playing a decade of FF) or whatever particular superstar, then you'll have to attend the draft to make sure you have a chance of getting em. I did a draft in-flight once; its pretty easy-peasy but will take a couple of hours to complete. After we start getting into the teen rounds, or when you're done picking the most important players, you can always set the remainder of your draft on auto if you need to bug out early.

That escalated quickly. About the creation of a thread for the league. That could be a possibility but not right now, in fact the spark that brought the fantasy league to the minds of everyone was the post of DireWolfM14 after a long period of inactivity and nutildah's response, right now all the activity on the thread is dedicated to the fantasy league and that is fine but as we get closer to the start of the regular season we may interfere with other users which are not part of the league and which may not be interested on it, so at that point it may be better to create a thread for the league to improve the readability of the thread.
Live drafts are always fun, but I know we're scattered across the globe so it might not be practical. If we were to take a vote I'll vote for a live draft.

+1 Edit: live draft
Edit: I'm ok with a live draft. Dibs on Tim Tebow.
Definitely like the live drafts. I've never done an espn one always on the yahoo leagues. Live drafting is half the fun and half the challenge of getting your team made up.
@nutildah. I thought the live draft is done every week before the games. Okay then I also vote in for the live draft hehehe. But can you not change your team once a week and can those changes then be done on your own time?
So I suppose we are +3 +4 +6+7 for a live draft, 0 +1+0 against it and 5 4 1 undecided so far.
