I'm considering it, is it a live draft? or offline, and if so, when is the draft, I'm away between Oct 4th to 15th, so i'll have limited access to internet during then.

I'm in. I've only been in one roto league, but I did enjoy the different strategy of it.

I was originally in favor the long-form draft, but I have to say that the FFL and now the BOSF leagues are wearing me down, and I thoroughly prefer the live draft. Plus, we're getting fairly deep into September at this point.

I think we should do a long form draft, but if you aren't into it, don't feel pressure to participate.

Would love to take part if the time of the live draft is good for me/my timezone.

Where are we wit this? If we are going with a live draft, we should start discussing the time so everyone can arrange their schedules accordingly.
If we are going with an offline draft, then we should get things started immediately.

Matt Buser recommended Fantrax for our BOSF league. Might be a good idea for doing our slow draft here...

If you need one more I am in. If not that is fine, I will not be heartbroken. I don't mind the live draft, anytime is fine as I will just rank the players and let yahoo do the rest. I tend to do better that way.

you don't mind the live draft but I LOVE live draft, it's more challenging (not saying I'm better at it but still, I love the thrill)

I think there's room for both TheMan and Sabonis isn't there?

So, is this an offline draft, and if so, when are we getting started?

There seems to be some wanting slow draft, and some wanting live.

My current thinking:

We'll do a vote on slow vs live.
If slow wins, we'll start pretty soon afterward.
If live wins, we'll do a vote on the time, where people can choose multiple times
If that fails to find a good time, we'll fall back to doing a slow draft.

I have used the email managers feature of the league to send you all a doodle.com url to the voting page.
