Guys, this is where we stand. I have put in everyone's players as keepers. It wants me to put in the draft result but should just put all the keepers into the slots available but it doesn't want to do that. So I have changed the draft type to autopick. I am hoping then it will assign all the keepers. It should do the autopick withing the next 72 hours. I see no way to make it do it now.

I am doing it this way because I do not want to manually assign 210 players. I did that last year and it was not fun.

If anyone knows a better way of doing this please let me know.

How about if you just "start" the league with our keepers. Then we can manually add/drop players during the draft

Can't be done until the draft is done. Thus the auto draft.

Everyone: Remember to drop a player when you draft a player.

Well, that didn't work. What is the point of having keepers if it is going to randomly assign the players to new teams? I will manually drop and add all the players. Fear not but it might take a while.

So I get half the teams entered and now I get:

There really should be an easier way of doing this.

My team looks good prior to drafting WCJ. I had him as a top 5 rookie pick so I am happy to get him at 8. Sad to let go of Gortat. I've had him since he was a backup in Orlando. But, I need to go with the younger players.

If anyone wants some assists, Rondo is available for a future 2nd round pick.

If any of you guys need another league, PM me. We just need 2 more members!

For the past four seasons, I've been running a fantasy basketball league only open to affiliates of RealGM. In Year 1, we had 259 posts in our discussion thread on the RealGM forums: http://forums.realgm.com/boards/viewtopic.php?f=39&t=1351269 In Years 2-4, we decided to use the league messenger on Yahoo and had active discussion almost every day. Most of the league came back for Year 5, but we still need some new guys to reach 16. If you want to join, I really urge that you're someone who's not only going to be active in the league, but in the chat as well. Here are the league details:

Platform: Yahoo
Number of Teams: 16
Format: Head-to-Head One Win
Categories: Standard 9 Category
Draft Type: Standard Live
Time of Draft: Sunday, October 14 5:00 PM PT

At what point does Sly get skipped? It has been 24 hours with no pick.

I would say he is skip able. Does anyone know if he is in the hurricane ravaged part of the country?
