Ladies and gentlemen, I am here (under a different account) to announce the opening of the 6th season of F.A.N.tasy Football on Yahoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The Draft Lottery is complete. If you wish to watch the video, look for my post on page 2 of this thread. If you wish to just skip right to the list, click the spoilers here. {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}
1. John's Splendid Team
2. Atlanta FBG
3. Negaseth Nation
4. Skyloft Groosenators
5. He Hate Me
6. StarTropics
7. Outworld Warriors
8. Grilled Mormons
9. Bombogenesis
10. The Losers
11. Lucky Clover
12. Demented Darlings
13. andrew8798
14. The Team Traditional scoring - No points-per-reception (PPR), kickers lose points for missing FGs/XPs 14 teams Snake-style draft - The draft order is reversed in even-numbered rounds. I currently have the draft set for Monday, August 22nd at 8 PM EST, right as Monday Night Raw is starting, as we've done in past years. I do this since the forum is most active during Raw, so I know most people will be available for that time. If you cannot make it, let me know. I won't change the date if just a couple of people can't make it (though you can set up a quick-list and Yahoo will draft your team based on that list), but if enough people aren't available I'd be willing to change the draft day to, like, that Saturday or something. If you have any questions or comments, shoot me a PM or let me know in this thread.

Been looking forward to this. I've done it 2 years in a row now, so...
As for a draft lottery, I wouldn't mind, it's not really a huge change or anything.

I finally got into the league for the first time last year, and I'm officially calling dibs for this year. I'm ok with the draft lottery, but I want to ask of something from you if you do: Try to keep the order the way it is drawn at first. Because I was in a league last year where I was manually drawn the #1 pick, but then the lineup of who was in the league got changed, and when it did the draft order got randomly changed and it couldn't be changed back because it was too close to the draft time. I ended up with the 13th pick. I was not pleased.

This is my year. Well, I hope. If all else fails, I'll do my best to keep the darling The Legend of Groose out of the playoffs....again.

Please keep in mind, this just assures I'll send you an invite when registration begins. It's up to you to answer the invite before the league fills. If you call dibs but don't respond to your invite before the league is full, you're out of luck.
In fact, I was on here to announce registration will begin a week from today, Saturday 7/30, at 12:00 Noon EST.I finally got into the league for the first time last year, and I'm officially calling dibs for this year. I'm ok with the draft lottery, but I want to ask of something from you if you do: Try to keep the order the way it is drawn at first.

I ended up with the 13th pick. I was not pleased. I can change it up until 30 minutes before the draft, but thank you for the heads up. I've never set the order in advance, so I'll keep that in mind.

My Empress would like it to be known that she will attempt to lead her Outworld Warriors to victory this season.

Also, I plan on holding Skype calls for both the lottery and the draft itself. If you don't already have me on your contact list on Skype or aren't sure, shoot me a PM and I'll send you the info.

A third title will be mine. I'm like the San Francisco Giants, I win every even number year. The dream dynasty will be your reality.

I definitely want in. Things can't go much worse than last season. And who knows maybe a return to glory?

Right now, I have every former champion calling "dibs" except for...well...the current champion...unless he has posted here already and I'm thinking of the wrong account. XD

And I will have to auto draft because the draft starts right as my work schedule for the day ends.

And I will have to auto draft because the draft starts right as my work schedule for the day ends. You could make your quick-list for the first couple of rounds and then just jump on in the middle. I'm allowing 2 minutes per pick, and I know not everyone will use the full time. I don't know what your work commute is, obviously, but i'd hate for you to just miss the entire thing because you can't make it for the first couple of rounds.

It's not so much the drive as it is the fact that my bosses force me to stay past the end of my shift all the damn time. So I have no idea when I actually can leave work most of the time.

I want to let everyone know that the time for registration has changed. I won't be available for the 12:00 EST registration as I actually have a lunch date that we could only arrange for Saturday afternoon. Therefore, I have pushed the time back to 4:00 EST.

I've always wanted to participate in a season-long fantasy league. I think I can do it.
