:siren: I realized I stupidly set the draft to Thursday August 23rd, which is before the 3rd Week of the preseason. Should it be on Thursday, August 30th instead? :siren:

Please no, I will be in Vegas for VMWorld then. The 23rd works perfectly for me as I have five drafts in a row each night starting on the 22nd.

I would much rather it be later. Even in September. I hate early drafts.

Agreed, the later the better for me. Let's just try to lock down an actual date ASAP so I can make sure I'm available

I'm very popular and in very high demand, you see,

If we had to move it to September 2nd - 5th, that would be better than August 30 (Still would prefer the original August 23rd date though). Just keep in mind that it's the Labor Day weekend then.

I vote for the 4th or 5th, it's after the holiday weekend but before the season start. I'm good with almost whatever though.

Do we have an idea what time it will be? I just found out I'll be on a flight the 4th, but can try to pick a later or earlier one.

If the 6 PM pacific time it shows on Yahoo is accurate, that would probably be fine since I'm supposed to touch down 5:45.

I do not have another idea, you guys are welcome to camwhore away with each other. My PC is so old it has no webcam!

:siren: draft tonight! This usually takes 2.5 hours so East Coasters make sure you take a 5 hour energy or something.

RE: Olsen and the IR slot

I just realized that Yahoo allows us to put "Out" players in the IR spot. I didnt realize this and I'm not sure I like it, as it will dilute the talent pool a lot and almost serve as an extra bench spot as the season goes on. I thought the IR spot was for players on IR-Return only.

Of course, I also dont like changing things like this once the season has started. I would need overwhelming consensus to change anything.

I guess there's 3 options:

1. Leave the IR spot as-is
2. Leave the IR spot, but you can only put an IR player in it. (I'd have to police this manually)
3. Delete the IR spot.

Thoughts?

2. Mainly because it creates more work for you and will make you pay less attention to your team.

1, because that's how other systems use the IR spot as well. It's for when you don't want to drop a player just because he might be out for one week.
