Guaranteed Kelce will not make it past Suchmoon, so thats pick 7.

I was going to draft Justin Tucker in round 1 but you have convinced me, Kelce it is.

Its a straight up quote, you didn't know that?



Agreed! hehehehehe.

However, there should be a type of strategy that can be used to gain back some advantage if drafting near the last slots. I was thinking of having a team heavy with good wide receivers this year if I had a good slot. But it appears if near the last places, is it good to do Kelce and Mahomes in 1st and 2nd rounds?
There must be a way to gain an edge, however there is little doubt to me that drafting at the extremes of the draft, whether it is too high or too low, is more difficult than to draft from the middle positions, as in my mock drafts I always do worse when drafting at the extremes than when drafting on the middle, personally I would have been fine with anything between the 4th and the 9th picks so I am very happy with my draft position, and while drafting Kelce and Mahomes would be a good combo, I doubt Kelce will drop to the point you could draft him.

Ummm, NO I meant first block after 1:59:59 p.m. EST 8/31 !!! Cheesy

LOL cheating starts even before the season...

Speaking of cheaters, has Brady unretired yet? I haven't been following the offseason and I'm having a blast with mock drafts... most names that I know seem to be with different teams than I remember. Or I'm just getting senile.

Harsh!  Cheesy

Apparently he's taking a year off before beginning a 10-year, $375 million announcer deal with Fox Sports, but he'll be at the Patriot's opener.

The way the article was written it makes it sound like he's unretiring again, but that's not the case... It was just the first one that came up in a Google News search for recent news on the subject.

Come join us on Discord if you can, I predict it will be a happening place during the season.

With my luck I'm afraid to wish for a do-over.  Things could get worse.   Cry

Last year I picked last, which had it's good and bad.  I picked 10th and 11th over all and always had two picks in row, but had to suffer through 18 picks in between.

Thanks Mo, that will work, we will use first block after 1:59:59 p.m. EST 8/30, I.E. today in about 50 minutes.

Hash lottery starts in about 15 minutes! We count the last digit/letter only (duplicate numbers/letters don't count...we move on to the next block). Gl, everyone!

Since I am absolute new to this I accept everything from you guys. Only problem for me could be the draft time since I am from Europe like @HHampuz.

Everything behind 7pm EST is nearly impossible for me. How long does the draft take?


You mean after?

My Thursday is open, so if no one else wants, i can do the hash lottery thing again and update it in real time.

It will take approximately 6 hours, possibly less if we are lucky. The final two spots took nearly as long as the first 7.

The list above is based on forum's UIDs, like we did last year (apologies for the mass tagging).

Maybe Hueristic can choose a random block ahead of tomorrow and we can start from there, or the first pick is the first block after (for example, the first block after 11:59:59 a.m. EST).


Thanks Mo, that will work, we will use first block after 1:59:59 p.m. EST 8/30, I.E. today in about 50 minutes.

*******************************************************************************************


Also I just noticed yahoo changed a setting and we can no longer change the waiver type once the season starts, FUCKING BUMMER!


So we have to choose between the other 2 options.

Last year it took close to 55 to 60 minutes as you need to enter the lobby 10 minutes before the draft, so with the two additional members it should take close to 65 to 70 minutes before the whole thing is over.

Can I make a request to start it either 2 hours before or 2 hours after of 7pm?

Check with Hhampuz and Nutildah, and see if they can adjust, I am going to guess not as they are both like 12 hours out from each other so that is where they can both make it.

So only force a change if you really have to.

I cleared my schedule. I removed all meetings with Donald Trump, Putin and Oprah Winfrey. I told them that I have something more important to do. The Donald asked what it was. I replied my fantasy league draft. Putin frowned, Oprah was shocked and rested her hands on her waist and the Donald gave me a thumbs up.

@South Park. I like the hash lottery. It will make you feel if you won or lost something hehehehe. I thought I won last year, however, I learned that I did not want to be first in a snake draft order.

Why is it so complicated? Why not let the fantasy choose a random order and go with it? Am I missing something? Do wheel of names to choose the draft order, seems fair enough to me. Someone just has to share their screen in discord so it's not manipulated.
In a way this is my fault, when the first edition of this FF league was created I suggested the use of a hash lottery to decide the draft order, and it basically won by default, during the second edition of this FF league that took place last year some league members expressed they liked this method of selecting the draft order, so morvillz7z made it happen, so the hash lottery has become part of this league, however if at some point there is a high enough opposition to it we will eliminate it as we do with any other setting we may not like, so if enough league members come forward asking to remove it then it will happen.

What do you think about the hash lottery taking place at block 805670, which should be mined roughly on Friday September 1st at 0:00 Default Forum Time with the next tickets?

Works for me unless anyone has a problem with it we will consider it done.


Why is it so complicated? Why not let the fantasy choose a random order and go with it? Am I missing something? Do wheel of names to choose the draft order, seems fair enough to me. Someone just has to share their screen in discord so it's not manipulated.

I am terrible at Fantasy Football!!!
This looks like its overly complicated when in order to keep it simple all we have to do is use a blocks hash as a seed in a randomizer.
Well, it is only a proposal, we could do it as we have being doing so the previous years, however it may take a long time before we get all the spots filled.

What do you think about the hash lottery taking place at block 805670, which should be mined roughly on Friday September 1st at 0:00 Default Forum Time with the next tickets?

This should give us sometime to iron out any issues and see if those which have yet to join the league will do so or we will have to figure out something out, in which case the hash lottery may have to be delayed.
