Iowannarock Fantasy Baseball

[bws258]

Iowannarock Fantasy Baseball is moving from Yahoo to CBS, effective immediately. Because of the move, we've had a few defections. The league has always been mostly made up of active HNers, and I'd like to keep it that way. So, if anyone is interested in joining, please let me know.

Any idea on when you'd have the draft?

 

[bws258]

Originally scheduled for tonight, but may have to move it because of the attrition in moving over from Yahoo.

 

[bws258]

Draft is set for 7:30 PM tonight. If we don't hit 10, then we can re-establish the league and try again.

Thanks. I just joined.

Also, its says the draft is 8:30 ET. So 7:30 central for any other potential league members

 

[bws258]

I doubt we make the 10 needed to draft tonight. From CBS:
"If your league does not have 10 team owners as of 5 minutes prior to the draft, your league will be disbanded and each owner will have to join or create another league."

Basically, they release your teams back into the pool, and then you are free to join any league. So, I will have to re-create the league with a new draft time and then invite you all again. I'd like to get 10 commits and a draft time picked before we try again, so that we don't have this problem.

I just joined.

since we didn't get to 10, the system kicked the league, I can recreate, but I need to pick a draft time and we need a couple more commits ... thinking maybe in a week ... 4/2?

 

[bws258]

No takers? If I don't get a few more bites, I'm just going to drop the league completely. Let me know if interested.

Great playing with all of you these last 7 years, sad to see it disband.

WTH, I'll play.

 

[bws258]

I guess the other option is ESPN if CBS is scaring any off

 

[atxhawk]

Couldn't find the league on CBS. . .

He would have to create league, it was disbanded last Weds for not having the required amount for the draft.

 

[atxhawk]

Doh. Me not smart so.

 

[Stanzi]

I'm still down for a league.
