Default Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops

Guys, the signup info was up above...
"For signup, the team name is Cigar Asylum 4 and the pass is cafootball."
Once you sign up, you'll see the draft date is August 28th at 8:00 ET.
Make sure to check Scoring and Settings now and prior to the draft in case I make any changes.
I know I'm painfully wordy, but please read all the stuff up above here, too.

When you sign up, make sure to use your CA screen name as your team name, or at least have it as part of your team name so everyone knows who they are playing.

Stephen sent me his error message he was getting as he tried to sign up. I had emailed last year's guys via Yahoo and apparently Yahoo reserved a spot for them. I'll have to go fix that. Please bear with me...

Our custom league URL will be

I sent you an invite and all these guys beat you to it. I know Huy has a league going right here. I think they're short on guys, too.

I double checked all the scoring categories and points you can earn, I'm leaving it the way it sits, same as last year.
Be aware that you get fractional points for yardage. That can be a killer, just lost by .2 points last year. It's painful.

It was just a joke. I do play a lot of fantasy football, though. Been doing it since high school. This is my first foray into playing for smokes, tho.

The calm before the storm.
Scott (sofaman) is the only one not signed up. He's on vacation, I think he's home tomorrow. I'll badger him into getting signed up so we have our full compliment.
Guys, try to set your draft priority list just in case you aren't around at draft time. I just auto-draft if I'm not there. I desperately need a marquis running back this year, it's tough to pick matchups on gameday every week. Usually I scramble to see the injury report last minute. I pretend I don't like it now, but when the season starts I LOVE it.

I had to sit out last year since I moved, but I have been in a league with friends for 15 years. I did miss the coming in last place every year

Default Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops

Guys, don't forget this thing...

Buy in will be five premiums ($50.00 minimum value, NC and/or CC) and a fiver (minimum) for the troops, due prior to the first week's kickoff.

I'll try to get a pm out to everyone as a reminder, although I've had a few responses already and received one batch of smokes.

Default Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops

A tip...
If you want to send along extra troop smokes to cover bets along the way, that's fine. A few guys did that last year, it saved them extra shipping later.

VERY IMPORTANT:
I will track your personal bets and troop smokes bets wins/losses/results and "who owes who what" on a spreadsheet thoughout the season but you have to send me the results of your bets each week. (Reason being, I can't see the bets you guys make by pm, etc.)
This way you can ask what you owe at any given time, or ask if you have betting smokes left if you've sent extra troop smokes ahead of time.
If two guys pm me with results from the same bet, that's no problem. Just please don't assume the other guy sent results.
Also please don't assume that posting your bet and results in our thread will be sufficient. It's not. I'll likely miss it or won't understand it.
Please pm me, it'll make everything run real smooth and I can post updates and stuff.

I mention this stuff because it was sheer hell last year and very confusing as to "who owed what and to whom" and I want to continue improving this model year-to-year so it just gets better.
If I keep track, then you guys can just have fun without worrying about details.
