Sorry, you haven't been here long enough to prove your loyalty :wink:

You're on the list

And you do need to make a Yahoo e-mail account.

Im surprised Mary hasn't signed up yet. I'd be real interested in seeing how well his fantasy team does.

:lol:

..I don't think Marbury is gonna be fantasy eligible! That's probably why we haven't heard from him yet.

We need to start a thread begging him to join us in this league. His team would be amazing.

Mary you do know that, even though it's fantasy, you can't start Marbury at all 5 positions right?

So we now have 25, contrary to the 24 that Miklo has on the 2nd post.

We going to wait for even numbers? Or should we look at getting this thing open soon?

Don't tell my boss. I am a Business Analyst so miscounting 25 items could leave a pretty serious mark on my job performance :lol:

But I wouldn't get hung up on odd numbers; we could put one extra in the A league in anticipation of more people wanting in next year so we'll probably have to tack on a couple to the B league next year.

We should start pretty soon. Maybe I'll make a thread just asking if anyone else wants to play, then TASTIC can lock it up.

BDR, I'll follow your lead as far as when to set up the threads and how the format of the leagues should work. I can run whichever one you don't, so we just need to figure out who goes in which league.

So are we doing ROTO or H2H? And what is the difference between the two? Noob questions, i know, but i need to learn to dominate before i DOMINATE!

ROTO, I used to play H2H in fantasy football, but once I got used to ROTO I loved it.

In ROTO, you have 82 games per position to use how you want. Stats are cumulative throughout the season... so you'll have running point totals, total blocks, rebounds, steals, etc.

You are given points by where you are ranked in relation to everyone else.
