2016 Yahoo! Fantasy Baseball (Draft) - 03/14/16 10:11 PM


It's that time of year again!

Invitations have been sent out to last year's league. If you don't wish to return then please let me know. Also, if you want to play and didn't play last year, I'll put you on a waiting list.

A tentative Draft date is currently set for: Sunday, Mar 20 at 7:30pm EDT *. Please let me know how that works, majority rules. The season begins 2 weeks later on Sunday, April 3th.

* Just found out that is pretty much the only day my nephew CANNOT draft as he'll be 30,000 feet in the air. Anyone against Monday evening? I will ask on the official yahoo league page....

Below is this year's draft order:


To set the order, I went through the following steps:

1 - I went to http://www.random.org/, DB's favorite random order generator website wink

2 - Using "Integer Generator" to pick a number between 1 and 20, I got:
Code:
Here are your random numbers:

6	

Timestamp: 2016-03-20 07:12:31 UTC


3 - I went to "List Randomizer" and input our list of owners (list from top to bottom per what I saw under "Managers" in Yahoo.)

4 - This list of owners was randomized 6 times to get to a final list which is our draft order:

Code:
There were 8 items in your list. Here they are in random order:

YO
NM
LI
BB
JG
TM
GO
JL

Timestamp: 2016-03-20 07:14:44 UTC

You have randomized this list 6 times.


So there you have your draft order.

JL's gonna kill me -- I swear that's how it came out, you're last again whistle

A record 39-minute draft! ...I think only BB and myself made it live, though.

There was a reminder automatically sent yesterday morning from Yahoo.... did you not get it? or you telling me just yesterday to set the draft order "asap" (I didn't see it until late, sorry, but it was done 24 hrs ago)...

After I posted a message about the draft order, I never saw that you did it or received a reminder from Yahoo. I was at work and just forgot.

Baseball Challenge... a lot of work, even played weekly, when only 3 of us played last year. I anticipate this being a busy year, so I may skip it this time unless there's an overwhelmingly popular desire to play... but I may play, I don't know... thoughts?

I'll play if others want to, but won't cry if we don't play.

I almost want to give up the game and smash the computer when I make changes to my team and it says "All changes saved" then I click to a previous date and it says "You cannot make changes to your roster for this date" and when I comeback to the current day the changes that "were saved" are reversed and I can't check the previous day's scores.

what the fuck am I doing wrong?

Are you using the app or computer?

Edit: I see you said computer. I'm not sure why this is happening. I'm not experiencing any major issues.

it's either me doing something stupid or it has to do with me accessing the site at an early hour when the previous' day scores haven't been processed yet.

Another grueling season down - congrats, JL, now 7-time Champ.

Had I worked so hard all season how I did the last few weeks to pass Lilo, I might've ranked higher than #5. I somehow caught up in my pitching (162 game starts) and was only -12 games played for positions (-1 for catching is pretty amazing). wink [JL was even better, just -5 for catching, all others maxed]
