Also, for those who haven't played NRLCEO before, if you have any questions please let me know.

It's essentially like a NFL fantasy comp, you draft your squad, set lineups and can drop and add players during the week.

You get to pick 1 captain per week and that player gets double points.

You have 10 kicker points to use on selecting a kicker.

Regarding the draft, I would like to run a snake draft (like the NFL draft) and would like to start next Monday with 24 hour time limits per pick, everyone happy with that?

Josh Miller's Dogs are in

 

[zombie jesus]

Sounds sweet.

 

[Russell Crowe's Band]

[Tom155]

all good with me

 

[Chip Bayless]

Thanks for the PM. I am new to this format though from what I've read above, looks a winner. Big Mick recommended this on twitter, I can't wait!

Thanks again to Monk for opening up a spot for me.

 

[Russell Crowe's Band]

so you are gunna upload the draft like you do for fleaflicker AB or do we nee to use the website?

We will use the website to do the draft, the site doesn't allow for rosters to be uploaded

 

[abpanther]

Alright guys I've updated my first post with a list of all teams and owners, Cupid Stunt and Dogs of War can you please confirm which teams are yours?

Alright guys I will set the draft to commence next Monday at 9am, there is a 24hr time limit per pick however if we can try to race through it next week that would be better, does anyone anticipate being away from internet access next week?

What we've done in other leagues is exchanged numbers so if you are away I can msg you to get your pick in, happy to do that for people if they like. There is an auto-select option where you can set a list of 10 or so players and it will auto-pick once your pick comes up.

For those who have not played this format before (very different to Supercoach/Dreamteam), I strongly suggest you read through the scoring system and purchase ($7) a guide from the website, I got one and it's pretty good, if anything it will just give you good info on the leading scorers at each position last year under this format and what to look for at each position.

 

[Cupid Stunt]

I'm The Angry Pirates.

My first time with this, am I right in assuming it's not that different to any of the major NFL fantasy sites? Meaning add & subtract is simply a click or two, pick up FA at will within the confines of the roster list etc?

Yes that is correct, all done very easily on the site

 

[zombie jesus]

Off to a flying start!:sarcasm:

 

[abpanther]

Lets kick things off Chip!

 

[Chip Bayless]

As per PM mate, wasn't on to this afternoon with the Super Bowl today. I had to host a party, no time for draft. Bad timing. That said, I have made my selection. Apologies for the delay to the comp all.

 

[Chip Bayless]

Raider_69 on the clock...pick 4.

 

[Chip Bayless]

What if we all agree on a time this week to punch this out? I need evenings say 7.00pm onwards.

Thoughts?

 

[abpanther]

How about we all just try to check it a few times daily, shouldnt take that long.

Also, can everyone please PM the person after them to speed things up?

 

[Chip Bayless]

I will make every effort to check a couple times during the day. Busy time of year for me. At worst, I am on in the evening.

Cheers.
