I'll need to start sending out MFL invites and collection payments (after we decide on payout structure).

Please post or pm me your email of choice. If you don't have pms and are super paranoid you can email it to me at brett.au.davis @ gmail.

PM'd you Papes, and I'm ready to rock for Wednesday night! Are we going to set up a GroupMe chat for the league, or just use this thread?

GroupMe is awesome for trading, shooting the poo poo and posting taunting gifs at people during matchups. Happy to help set one up if you like.

I think I have all the invites out, still need to find 4 more people. Feel free to invite anyone who would be an active user.

A groupme sounds like a lot of fun. I've never used it before so it would save me some time figuring it out if you are familiar with it.

Hmm.. No invite yet, but I'll keep an eye out.

Once I get into the league, I'll set up a GroupMe and send out invites to all owners currently signed up. Download the GroupMe App to your phone in the meantime, and/or check out the desktop client.

Ah crap. I filled out everyones info but there is another button you have to it to actually send out the email. It should be there now.

6:30 - 7pm central time. will probably take a few hours.

Unfortunately I'm not gonna be able to do that. I considered trying to set values for autodrafting but I don't think that will work out very well. Sorry for wasting time if you were holding that slot but I'll have to back out of this league.

Got the link, all set with the league! Epi Lepi - are you available at all on Wednesday, or is that day totally out?

Papes - We can try putting out a call in our other dynasty leagues and/or reddit /r/findaleague if needed to fill the last four spots. What do you think? Don't know if you've got any other warm leads currently...

I was going to try Twitter and another message board, but I wouldn't call that a warm lead. I'll post in their Reddit tonight, I didn't know that existed so thank you for bringing that up.

If you know any cool people in of other dynasties invite them over :)

We need 3-5 depending on that person and if DeliciousMonster accepts in time. Most likely just 3 though.

I have another guy who might be interested. He wanted to confirm that we're using LeagueSafe and that we're doing 4 point passing TDS. Correct for both?

Hey guys, quick question about the draft/settings because I really want to join. Is it possible to draft from a mobile device? I may have to leave partway through the draft but could still access my phone if that's possible.

Quarterroys

Here's the link to the GroupMe I created https://app.groupme.com/join_group/24074245/fdv0eR - click to join, and I recommend setting your nickname as your Team Name to avoid confusion.

If you don't have a GroupMe account, set one up with your league email and/or phone number, and download the app to your phone. The desktop client is also pretty good, so that's an option as well.

If it's easier Papes, if you PM me everyone's email, I can send them an invite to the group that way.

I've done plenty of MFL Snake drafts from a phone, but not the auction format. We can try and set up a test this afternoon/evening if you like?

That would be excellent. If the plan is to start at 6:30 CST, I should have about 3 hours before I need to leave. Hopefully that would minimize the mobile work.

Edit: Sorry for being a pain in the last hours before the draft, just got laid off and been scrambling to interviews and meetings so haven't had a chance to check this out.

I just tested it out and it seems doable. There is a bid +1 button that should be easy to hit via mobile. Nominating a player could be a pain.

Let me know when you are free tonight and we'll do a test run.

Edit: reading your post makes me think you might think the draft is tonight, it's tomorrow evening just to confirm. Apologies if I misread that.

My other lead decided to opt out. I did another cross post to my current leagues, sent a Tweet to MFL to share out, and posted a reminder in the main fantasy thread. Think all of my avenues are exhausted at this point.

Looks like we still need 2 to go. Let's get this filled up!

gently caress it, I am in. Sending a PM with my email.

Having never done an auction or a keeper league, you folks are in for a real treat with me joining.

Edit: Sorry if my post was confusing, I realize the draft is tomorrow evening. I meant "last hours" as in 24 hours.

Edit: Ignore that, looks like Papes and I posted at the same time.

I can do 6:30 or 7:00 CT start time.

I have a lead via Twitter that might be interested in the 12th spot. Stay tuned!

Also, join the GroupMe so we can start chatting! https://groupme.com/join_group/24074245/fdv0eR

How do you guys feel about having 2 nominations going on at once during the draft? It would be a little more hectic but would cut the draft time nearly in half.

If it's a really dumb idea feel free to say so.

Since there's so much going on with the format/positions, I would recommend keeping it simple with one, especially since it sounds like we have some folks newer to auction.
