[SHOCK]

alright you guys, prepare to be waxed by shocks shockers, lol

[David]

Canada > all

That was supposed to be my team name, but it wouldn't let me do a >, so the name is just dumb now.

[goku2057]

LMAO. THe Pack Attack OWNS j00 all!

[Greg]

An auto pick draft? that sucks. Oh well either way I will own all of you.

[goku2057]

It's the easiest way, so we all don't have to be on at one time.

[dncardman]

Ohh this is cool, I may have to try it out...if the link worked.

[SHOCK]

make sure when you get to the link, your clicking on the free link, the three big buttons in the middle are for the paid league. *hangs head, same mistake*

[Viper]

Yeah, I just went through all that.

I'm in. Shock, I got you first. You going down.

[goku2057]

there the link is fixed.

[Viper]

We need at least one more so we can get to drafting.....I think.

[Crow]

okay i signed up...
btw who's "Quincy Carter owns"?

[Viper]

My guess, Eman.

[Crow]

oh ok, just so i know.


(Viper your beating me on rep points, u must +rep me now!)

[Eman]

It's the easiest way, so we all don't have to be on at one time.


Easy doesnt always mean fun and a live draft will be a lot more fun....

Autopick makes you miss out on a great part of the fantasy football experience...

Im sure if we all tried we could get on at like 12am

[goku2057]

Well, who else wants to have a live pick draft?

[Crow]

Well, who else wants to have a live pick draft?

12 midday? what times that here?

[Eman]

Well... when its 7 here it will be around 12 your time... so i guess i could do it at 7 since when its 12 here its like 5 over thur

[Crow]

mmmkay, what day?!

[Viper]

I can do midnight here. 5AM Macca time.


Eman, it may not work to get all of us in a live draft but they compensate by allowing you to make preferences. Rank a bunch of players in order of most desired and it will take that player if available instead of the 'auto' selected player.

[Crow]

5am? u'll be lucky if im even concious at that time...i have spirits (not ghosts) i'd let someone draft for me if they want

EDIT: Macca Time haha, is that like Hammer Time?
GMT sillies

[Eman]

I can do midnight here. 5AM Macca time.

Yeah but lets say we do have a live draft.. if someone doesnt show up they will draft whoever is 1st on their list... and if they show up 30 mins late.. they can still join in....

So we have nothing to lose by doing a live draft.. cause if no one shows its the same as a autopick...

[Crow]

hahaha sEman...wouldn't auto pick just be easier? lol

[Eman]

hahaha sEman...wouldn't auto pick just be easier? lol


Yeah but in a live draft you have more options.. like if someone got passed up and would be a steal in like the later rounds you might pick him up instead. A live draft wouldnt hurt.

[Crow]

Yeah but in a live draft you have more options.. like if someone got passed up and would be a steal in like the later rounds you might pick him up instead. A live draft wouldnt hurt.

but...i dont know many players :(

[Viper]

Eman, if one doesn't show, none of us can draft. It doesn't auto draft just for that one player, we're all screwed.

[Crow]

Viper is teh right, auto draft!

[Eman]

Eman, if one doesn't show, none of us can draft. It doesn't auto draft just for that one player, we're all screwed.

viper sorry but for the 1st time.. you are teh wrong...

We can only not draft if we dont have a even amount of players.. we can draft whether everyone shows up or no one shows up..

pppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp ppppppppppppppppppppppwwwwnnnn

[Crow]

yeh but...thats not fair, i cant for a reason...

[Eman]

yeh but...thats not fair, i cant for a reason...

Im sure you can... once goku changes the draft to live you will be able to.

[Pro A.]

Well, this should be fun. I'm the commissioner of the PGNx Fantasy Football league. I'd like to play two different kinds of teams and see what happens.

[Eman]

I play like 10 leagues at a time... yay!

[goku2057]

Well, auto-draft it is. It'll be easier all-round.

Another Idea. We can incorperate credits into trades. Say, for instance, Eman has Payton manning, and I want him, I'll trade Eman 2 guys, and, say, 10 million credits.

The credits will be sent to the commisioner, who will hng onto them until the trae is over, and tehn he'll send tehm to their new owners.

Good/Bad/Ugly!?

[Greg]

not a bad idea

[Viper]

I'm game....oooh, bad pun(t).

Double pun.

[Pro A.]

Lucky for me I don't trade very often. I hope my experience comes in handy on the overall. I would like to win one of my two leagues.

[Eman]

Good/Bad/Ugly!?

Booooo!

taking the easy way out isnt always the right way out....oh well i think its just dumb to assume we all cant get on at the same time and not willing to try and get it to work

[goku2057]

So teh credits idea is a go?!

[Viper]

Yes, we go credits. Lets get this started. I'd prefer we had 16 people to make it all nice and even but this is my first dance here so I really don't care how many we get, I'm just ready to do this.

[David]

Bah, auto-draft sucks. Go for live, worst case scenario, whoever doesn't show up just has it auto-pick for them.

[Viper]

Goklu, I just read over the rules and they are right. It's not like the one I was familiar with, we can go live and the shmucks that miss it get an auto.

[goku2057]

Fine, I'll change it now. We'll do the live draft tonight at midnight!?

[Viper]

SWEET.



Now sign up you frikks, you only have 10 and a half hours left.

[goku2057]

You mean NOW sign up?

[goku2057]

The latest it will llet us draft is 10 PM

[goku2057]

THE LIVE DRAFT WILL BE TONIGHT AT 10:00 PM EST. Be there or your picks will be picked out of teh pre-selected list you have made.

[Viper]

I'll be there.

[Resident Darkness]

I'll try to get it working. Good thing it's at 10, my internet kicks off at 11 :-(

[Viper]

Good thing it's at 10, my internet kicks off at 11 :-(
:wtf:

[Eman]

Thats right bitches..I WAS RIGHT.... now lets go... its random right the picks? or is it gonna be selected by you?

[Resident Darkness]

I don't understand draft shit, but Aenima will totally own you.

[Pro A.]

You get to pick. It will be a snake draft, I'm assuming.

[David]

I may be on, it's 7 my time, but I'll probably be a bit late.

[Pro A.]

I have control of a very solid team, I think.

[goku2057]

Meethinks you do, and meethinks I do as well. Speacially after Matt and I's trade.

[Viper]

*votes againt trade*

Kidding.

[Resident Darkness]

My team totally owns all of yours. You just wait and see.

[Pro A.]

We shall see indeed.

[r33hash]

Damnit. I thought the deadline wasnt til the 21st or something. When I came and clicked that link a few days ago, it wouldnt let me see the page. Go figure I dont get in on it. This blows.

[Greg]

my team will own everyones. my running game is stacked.

[Pro A.]

What about the rest of it?

[Greg]

decent

[Pro A.]

First three picks of NNow draft:

Tomlinson, Ward, Brady.

First three picks of PGNx draft:

Tomlinson, Harrison, Favre

Which is better, in your opinion?

[Eman]

They are both really even cant say one is better than the other because.. harrison is better than ward and brady is better than favre

[Pro A.]

Thats kinda my line of thinking. I think Favre is more reliable than Brady because he will never miss a game, but Brady is more consistent. Tough call, yeah.

[Viper]

Yep...very even.

[Pro A.]

By some form of magic, I stole Dante Hall in the 11th round. What a fucking bargain.

[goku2057]

Favre OWNS Brady, bitches.

My offensive game is STACKED, but my defense is lacking.

[r33hash]

I curse you all to death. Thank you.

[Pro A.]

I could stand to have a better TE, but he is in Indy, so he should be pretty good.

[goku2057]

BEcause my QB is gonna pass to him, just like Brady WILL pass to Givens! ^^

[Viper]

Call it intuition......



Aug 17 1:32am J. NedneyO (Ten - K) Drop Vipers Waivers


Titans PK Nedney out for season ... again

[r33hash]

Is that a bad thing? That post was hard to understand.

[Viper]

I waived Nedney back on August 17th and today we find out that he has a season ending injury. I replaced him with Mike Vanderjet of Indy back then. Looks like I made a damn good call.

[r33hash]

OOOOOOOOOOH. Ok.

[Pro A.]

I'm off to a solid start in this league. I hope it can continue on Sunday and Monday night.

[Viper]

14 points, I'm doing good for not having either starting RBs or QBs.

[Pro A.]

Its only been one game.

[Viper]

I know, I was joking but I do see the importance big name QBs are already going to have.

[Pro A.]

Brady is very underrated, I think. He was a machine tonight.

[Resident Darkness]

I guess it's good I got 8 points from only having one person from a different team.

[Viper]

Last nights game had no defense at all. I think they'll come closer to giving up that many yds per game then they did gaining them.

[Crow]

i dont have points :(

$$$ Send Points to RaVeN's for Cash Prizes $$$

[goku2057]

Brady is very underrated, I think. He was a machine tonight.


That he was, but Manning didn't have too bad of a night either...

Also, the Titans @ Dolphins game was moved to Saturday @ 1 because of this new hurricane.

[Pro A.]

Oh yeah, thats right. Hopefully my D gets on the ball.

[goku2057]

Well, I'm certainly getting my ass handed to me right now...Hopefully Ol' Faithful has an outstanding game tomorrow, and throws all of his touchdowns to Jevon Walker.


TO had 3 TD Catches today, pretty freaking sweet, too bad his yards were pretty low.


Best QB of sunday: By FAR Donavon McNabb. 117 pts. in one day.

[Pro A.]

Could have been better. I don't like how the offense doesn't count decimal points. That burned me a couple of times.

[Eman]

Looks like i will win this week this was a lot closer sunday we were tied at about 136 each good thing there is monday night football.. and viper i knew picking all those jags would hurt you...

[goku2057]

Also, Ahman Green had an AMAZING night last night.

[Greg]

^the best thing about that is it was against one of the top ranked defenses. Think of how well he will do against the bears next week.

[brudaman]

OMG i missed a fantasy football league?!?!? Shit!

[r33hash]

Yeah! Me too. SHIT

[Pro A.]

A good start for me. I am pleased with this team.

[goku2057]

Why aren't the points updating? It shows that none of my guys got any points, and yes, i am looking at week 2.

[Greg]

Live scoring was only for week one if you want that now you have to pay for it. So now you must wait till tommorrow

[Pro A.]

Jesus. 365 points in a week. Who let him get Favre and Manning on the same team?

[goku2057]

LMAO. You guys got j00ed this week. I still got a guy playing tonight too! he usually gets me around 20+ pts.

[Pro A.]

I won my matchup this week. I'm happy. 2-1.

[David]

Yeah, I had a shitty week anyways though Goku. All my Jets had their bye weeks so I was forced to start Ganon who got injured in the 1st Q anyways.

Of course, I would've lost anyways, unless I could beat your 9 TDs and 752 yards or whatever from Manning and Favre.

[Crow]

now im pissed off...

RaVeNs - 216.00
Wraiths - 217.00

[Kay B]

^ alcoPWNED!

[Greg]

now im pissed off...

RaVeNs - 216.00
Wraiths - 217.00
haha I am still undefeated.

[Crow]

only just

[Pro A.]

You and me next, my fellow Illinoisian.

[Kay B]

only just

*puts on vin deisels voice from fast and furious*

"anyway real fantasy football player knows it don't matter if you win by one point or 100....a wins a win"

[goku2057]

"anyway real fantasy football player knows it don't matter if you win by one point or 100....a wins a win"


That's complete shit. A win might be a win, but a win by 200 pts is a win by 200 pts.

That has to hurt your pride a little.

[Crow]

i think WSG is talking bout Fast and the Furious

[r33hash]

He was kinda trying to make a point with a movie quote, where that movie quote didnt really fit. lol

<3

In fantasy football, a win by more means better stats for your players. Because, logically, thats how it plays out. The winning team always has the better stats.

[Pro A.]

Week six has arrived with a seven-way tie. Unbelievable.

[goku2057]

No tie, my low point totaled friend. I am winning, as I have teh highest number of total points.


OWNED!

That would only rank up everyone for the playoffs, right?

Actually, because of Paytons lazy assed bye week, I'm gonna get my ass handed to me.

[Viper]

How right you are. And my win streak continues at 4.


To be honest, QB's have a most unfair scoring advantage. A RB could run for 300 yds and 5 TD's and only have 60 points. This is why I lost my first two games, I didn't know the QB was that much more important than any other player.

Barring Brad Johnson having an explosive night, I should move to 4-2.

[Eman]

Hes not just in this league. Im not sure what goku was thinking making it like this but it is his 1st league so whatever...

[Pro A.]

The QB should be worth the most points. If you play your cards right, some of your other players can get you 15-25 points in a week.

[Viper]

Yes, they should get the most points but a RB doing 300 yds and 5 TD's should get more than 60 points. There should be a bit more balance to it. I'm not complaining being that his is his first League, I just had to make adjustments after week 2.

Oh yeah, 4-2 coming my way.

[Pro A.]

The league I run has a similar style in points variants. The difference is I put a little more weight on kick and punt returners.

[Eman]

I just wish he had told me this before the draft. The commish having a unfair advantage like this aint right.

oh yeah goku if you want to still do that manning green trade..holla... how bout green vick and someone else for manning

[Crow]

im teh losing :)

[goku2057]

No.

And I messed with nothing. I kept everything the way that Yahoo had it in the beginning...And this isn't my first league either...

RB's get a point for every 10 yards tehy run, and 6 points for every TD. Wide receivers get a point for every 20 yards, and 6 for every TD.

Yahoo needs to balance it a bit more. A RB doing 300 yds and 5 TDs should be worth as much as a QB doing the same. Though QBs doing 300 yds happen all the time.

[Kay B]

^huh :uhoh:

[goku2057]

Only thing I changed on that was Passing TD's, I made interceptions take more off, I think they had QB passing yards at 15, that's about it.
