Title: Aces High Fantasy Football
Post by: Waffle on August 19, 2010, 09:35:26 AM
Anyone interested send me a PM with your email addy and I'll send you an invite. I'm running this through ESPN.
It's a free league, I'm experimenting with some scoring settings. Space for 11 right now, waiting on a few friends to join, but if they can't or aren't able to I'll have room. So If you don't get an invite, there still might be room in the future. I'll send out invites in the order I receive them.

Edit* I'll probably send out invites by this weekend.

Sent another round of invites - if you PM'd me with email and didn't get an invite - let me know, I might've entered it wrong. There are still have about 5-6 slots open.
Title: Re: Aces High Fantasy Football
Post by: Waffle on August 23, 2010, 11:15:36 AM
ok - 4 slots are open as of this AM.

Waiting on a few invites to join up - (if you didn't get an invite - PM me your email again). Hopefully the slots will fill up by this weekend and we can arrange a draft day.
Also - a few of my friends have invites but may not be able to play due to moving within the next few weeks, so there maybe some more slots opening up on that end.

Also - if you joined - check out the scoring set up and see if there's any unseen advantages / disadvantage that jump out. Also - I need some more ideas for trophies :)
Title: Re: Aces High Fantasy Football
Post by: Waffle on August 24, 2010, 02:50:07 PM
Ok - got 8 players joined up so far, 6 invites are out and waiting on acceptance. 2 slots open.

If the invites aren't accepted by this weekend - I guess I'll cut the teams down so we can get on with the draft.

You guys have any preferences for draft day / time if you want to do it manually? If you can't make it - auto draft will take care of your selections.

Post by: Reschke on August 24, 2010, 04:32:28 PM
Doesn't matter since I haven't been able to make it for more than the first 2-3 rounds of a draft anyway.
Title: Re: Aces High Fantasy Football
Post by: fbWldcat on August 24, 2010, 04:39:11 PM
IN, any time really, even if I have an open spot, I probably won't make it. All I know is... I better get Peyton Manning.

In and good for the draft date Waffle. We full up or still have room?
Title: Re: Aces High Fantasy Football
Post by: Waffle on August 28, 2010, 09:49:04 AM
I think we're full to 14 teams (waiting on a few late joiners) - so we'd need two more to go full 16 teams.
Title: Re: Aces High Fantasy Football
Post by: Waffle on August 28, 2010, 09:54:01 AM
Biggest pain in the butt is setting up conference / divisions with playoffs based on team numbers / weeks of season / playoffs.  I don't want anyone to have a bye week during the regular season.

vv sounds good
Title: Re: Aces High Fantasy Football
Post by: crazyivan on August 29, 2010, 09:09:56 PM
Pfft  finally IN! I think hehe.  :banana: :uhoh :bolt:
Title: Re: Aces High Fantasy Football
Post by: Waffle on August 30, 2010, 09:38:19 AM
Ok - teams are locked in with a total of 12 for the season. (14 weeks of play with 3 weeks playoffs)

Also,  I adjusted the roster to only have one QB playing per week. I think having 2 QBs would cause a mess of trouble during bye weeks, with some teams only having one QB.

Post by: Husky01 on August 30, 2010, 10:07:35 AM
Good choice  :aok
Title: Re: Aces High Fantasy Football
Post by: Husky01 on August 30, 2010, 11:49:03 AM
Waffle, I just got done talking with Chris (4440) we thought it may be a good idea to get a teamspeak channel going for draft night, that way guys could get to know each other and fart around while having to sit through the draft. Thoughts?
Title: Re: Aces High Fantasy Football
Post by: Waffle on August 30, 2010, 01:27:24 PM
if you guys want to feel free to - I'll probably just use the text (no mic at home).

But you cant play both QB's at the same time. :cry :D
Title: Re: Aces High Fantasy Football
Post by: Waffle on September 02, 2010, 10:08:48 PM
I thought there were going to be more bench spaces when I set it up - I had one guy who was showing "bye" the first week..see ya off to waivers..

If you guys want - I can see if  I can add some more bench spots, so we don't have to be waiver crazy each week.

Post by: Hoarach on September 02, 2010, 11:17:57 PM
Dont think Im going to make it for the 7PM kickoff.  I made draft rankings through 50 but I am hoping to be back by 8-8:30 EST.

Change it to 1 CB, LB,DT, DE, DL per  week  and Bearkats looking at your players again you got some lucky draft picks. I had pick3 pick 23 and then lord knows where.63rd or something :rolleyes: :cry 


cc I'll have to be checking waivers every week bah!!1 :furious
Title: Re: Aces High Fantasy Football
Post by: Waffle on September 03, 2010, 04:07:40 PM
I was looking around in the setup - can't add spots to the bench...

Looking at the defensive score avg - i guesstimated two defensive players would = one offensive player in scoring. Think I'm going to leave it how it is for now - if it get's outta whack I can change it during the season.
Title: Re: Aces High Fantasy Football
Post by: Waffle on September 03, 2010, 04:10:21 PM
i got first round pick by the auto lottery - and hate it.... get the 1 spot - then the 24th.  would've loved to been in the middle of draft.
Title: Re: Aces High Fantasy Football
Post by: fbWldcat on September 03, 2010, 05:01:50 PM
I may not be able to play em both but I'm going to bet that I could trade wither one, easily. Or replace one if they go down with an injury.
