I could dupe if needed, but might auto draft. I've got my 10 year high school reunion that night two hours before the draft and I'm not sure how much time I need to drop the kids off with a sitter and all that fun stuff.

I'll give it a couple days to see if we have a replacement dupe that can definitely make the draft, otherwise I'll drop myself and pass commish to someone else. Will wait on putting in schedule until then.

I mean I'm like 90% sure I can draft. It's just I do have plans later that night and can't say 100% it won't interfere with the draft. Personally, I think an 8 team league with less dupes makes more sense, but just figured I'd offer if what you need is one more dupe. That being said, if someone else wants to do it more than I do, that works too.

We'll just drop to 8, I think. Wife will be happy if I'm not drafting every weekend this year...

I think since we are duping in L3 it matters less if we are there for the draft although we should all still set lineups and be competitive.

thanks for this but I'm not sure this correct. Peg pmed me the other day and said he'd not joined yet so I assume Yiley is one of Sea Brees/Toad and the other one gets kicked out?

Last year Yiley was Sea Brees. Toad was BBM who left, so Mr. Toad is probably good to get rid of. IS was Baboon Bamboozlers, so he's probably Playing for a Hummer now.

I did one mock yesterday and will probably do another today, but that’s probably going to be just about it other than scanning r/fantasyfootball.

P-Edit: My other league I’m winging, I’ve pointed out a few times how bizarre the scoring system there is and it’s very hard to prep for a league like that...just gonna find PPR rankings and hope I guess.

I did way more prep then necessary considering I'm only doing this league before I devote myself to a superior format for the year.

What do you do then? Or did you just win really big three years ago and haven’t needed to spend since?

General heads up to all. I think Yahoo might be having some draft room issues at the moment. I tried to use my laptop earlier this week and was able to do a mock draft just fine. about 30 minutes ago I tried to use my desktop to do the same. I ran the yahoo system test and it passed but when the draft room tried to load for forever until eventually I got a 404 error. Tried to connect some other times and no luck. I eventually booted up my laptop and was able to get in with that. Bunch of people in the mock were signed out when I got in. Both my laptop and PC passed their system tests for draft support so I kinda wonder if yahoo is having timeout issues or if my setup was off. I can't do anything about timeouts so just gonna switch to using my latop tonight and hope for the best.

In short you may all want to try a mock draft just to make sure you got a working setup. Don't trust the system tests yahoo might might be having issues

I had an issue getting into a Yahoo mock where once it loaded it sent me back to my team’s page, but I just went back into the mock draft “homepage” and I had a link to it.

Win as much as you lose. Just like any other forms of gambling. A smart 20 bucks can stretch a long way. I put in 20, took it out when I hit 50, now I hover anywhere between 10-30 bucks all on draft kings dime. I play NBA, MMA, and NFL.
