Repeated for 3Si, Fran, Cy and theman:

Alright, let's get going then. Please submit your lottery number (1-20). I'll probably hold the draft lottery this weekend, maybe Saturday? [Open Numbers: 2, 5, 14, 16]

As for voting, let's vote on the following:

1) Should we eliminate the IL? If so, should we add one roster spot?

2) Should we divide the league into two divisions, with division winners securing automatic playoff bids?

3) Should the limit on add/drops be a weekly limit, or a seasonal limit?

I've made an invite to insfo to see if he'd be interested in filling our vacancy for the league.

Once we run the draft lottery, the trading of draft picks may begin. We will probably start the draft sometime in August.

Thanks!

Also, I completely forgot, but as some point last season, we said we would vote on whether to invite Fran to come back again to the league. To be honest, I don't completely remember the circumstances, but I think it had something to do with intentionally abusing the IL system?

At any rate, please cast your vote on whether to invite Fran back to the league.

Number 16

My votes:

1) Keep IL add one roster spot sounds good.

2) No divisions

3) as long as there's a limit, I'm ok

I vote for Fran to be back. He creates drama, which makes it interesting especially during mid season when the league is in sleep mode. I might not agree with everything he does or say, but as a competitive Fantasy GM, I rank him as high as anyone.

I vote for Fran to be booted because he is a cheater. If you cheat, you should be thrown out. Simple as that.

+1
Fantasy GMs as competitive as Fran are hard to come by, and he adds character to the league. Sure, he abused the IL system last year, but the IL is gone this year.

If Fran wants the spot, I say he can have it. Only thing is, I haven't seen Fran around and usually he's here chatting things up by now...so this may be a non-issue.

Fraan repeatedly violated the IL rules and called people a cock smoker on multiple occasions.

Either way, I don't care. He can stay.

this.

lets put someone on the bubble already and if fraan doesn't show up 10 days before the draft, get the new guy instead of him.

Speaking of which: We're waiting on Cy, the Man, and Fran right? The Man was by far the slowest drafter last year, and disappeared for long periods of time. It was also his first year...Wonder if we need a replacement for him as well?

Since I wasn't here last year, I'll abstain on the Fraan vote.
