So, I'm going to give a full explanation of any relevant rules this weekend, but here are my early takeaways: - Preseason trading is super-encouraged and extra fun: You can trade into another draft, WHAAAAT?! They use a trade calculator and reject any trades that come out even remotely lopsided, so don't be afraid that you're getting ripped off because we're new. - Drafts are staggered: first three fire at about the same time, but with a slow clock. So if you're getting your feet under you and want to just wait until the draft is underway to figure out what is going on, it's totally okay, you won't miss out on the drafting fun. - The hardest part is figuring out the channels of communication. Seems like most stuff is done on the fantasy sharks board, partially because mfl's messageboard gives me a big ol' "THIS SITE CAN'T BE REACHED" error, so check there first. - The main point of our involvement this year is to connect with a forums network and have fun, so if you're anxious/aren't achieving both of those points, contact me and I'll get you streamlined towards socially entertaining fantasy action. - "Socially entertaining fantasy action" does not mean group orgies, just want to cut that off at the pass so no one ends up sad and naked.

ok 3 things 1) still no access to the trade forum 2) which MFL app is the official one? There's one by Ken Pespisa and another by Chris Stewart 3) can we discuss trades amongst ourselves here? I wouldn't mind moving back a touch in the 1st. I've got 3rd overall in the A draft

There is no official MFL app. Platinum seems the most widely used and best rated. I use it and while it’s not intuitive, neither is MFL, and I don’t remember seeing any issues, bugs, or glitches with it.

Okay I sent a message to the commish about you and alfalfa. You're not missing much, there's really no action right now. I guess teams are just trading among themselves or maybe they wait for the drafts to start. Or... pmchem is there some trade exchange I'm missing? I'm looking at the IBL trade board and there's just two posts this year.

Quarterroys I'll trade you the 3.11 pick in draft G for the 3.12 pick in your draft? I'll trade anyone pick 6.02, 8.02, 10.02, 12.02, or 14.02 for their corresponding round pick in a different draft. I just want to get in as many drafts as possible

Drunk Nerds posted:Okay I sent a message to the commish about you and alfalfa. you're not missing anything yet. In general, trades don't happen until the first set of drafts kick off. Any trades would be posted in the trade forum's intraboard or interboard trade threads. Most trade chat will be on the actual draft sites as the drafts are in progress (often in private messages on MFL and then foraying into private messages on fantasysharks before the final trade is posted). but yes get the entire SA team access to that forum ASAP. Makes sure you have their exact fantasysharks forum name, spaces/dashes/etc. included.

1.3A is up for dealing. Wouldn't mind moving back to 1.5-9 if anyone's up for it.

Ches Neckbeard posted:1.3A is up for dealing. Wouldn't mind moving back to 1.5-9 if anyone's up for it. I'll make you an offer in public here in this thread as an example for what you guys may get offered when the drafts actually begin. Since I've given and received a lot of IBL trade offers. This is a real offer -- if you accept, I will execute this trade with you as soon as you get trade subforum access. "I have 1.07B. I'm pretty happy with the 7-spot but it's also right in your sweet spot range that you want and I wouldn't mind moving up at the right price. I'll give 1.07B and 5.07B for your 1.03A and 6.10A. That's under 5% on Dodds. What do you think?"

Team SA, Evaluate this trade offer I received, please: I'll propose something to you; Your picks in a later draft (g). Mine in the middle draft (d) My 4.07, 5.06 , 13.06, 18.07 For your 5.11, 6.02 , 7.11, 8.02

I imagine he will accept that, he was clearly trying to drain value from you since SA is new. There’s no need to rush into mid/late round trades just yet. They’ll come fast and furious later. Note that after round 15 or so, Dodds calc breaks down and can’t be relied upon.

Zauper posted:I don't know what Dodds is, and don't trust trade calculators... But that's super slanted. I like it. 4.07 gets me a shot at a decent RB2: MFL has Freeman and Ingram going around there. After round 5 I really lose interest, the guys there aren't really that interesting to me more than the guys that will be there if he gives me that 9.06. Plus trading up in the 5th gets me a way better shot at those high upside WR2s that seem to get runs in that round. Drunk Nerds fucked around with this message at 02:16 on Aug 4, 2019 |

Ches Neckbeard posted:Deal. Okay. I made the offer in public so that your SA teammates would have a chance to look at the trade and comment. That's pretty common within teams, getting trade opinions from teammates (like what DN did). But nobody here commented so we have to assume they all thought it was close enough to fair. It's in my favor on Dodds %, but, the amount it's in favor is an example of the price you'll have to pay to make a move you want to make sometimes. Dodds calc also overvalues in the top handful of picks in the draft, in my personal opinion. So to make this trade a reality, you need to go to https://www.fantasysharks.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=136&t=351568 and post the offer in this format: quote:Ches Neckbeard (SA) gives: Then, I'll quote that confirming that I accept the trade. After I accept, I'll go to the draft A and draft B sites and offer the parts of the on each site. Then you have to go accept the trade on each draft site. Then we're done! Speaking of draft sites, I received 8 emails from MFL this morning inviting me to link my account to a franchise at each of the 8 IBL draft sites. This is how you get set up at each draft site and you should all check your email / spam folders for those emails. The emails looked like this: quote:The league commissioner has invited you to join the MyFantasyLeague.com league All of team SA should go find those emails and click on all the 8 links, and if you have not received them, make sure your MFL account it set up with the email you think it is and check your spam folder. Barring that, check with your team captain to make sure your team's MFL accounts are set up correctly and links have been triggered to be sent to you all.

Drunk Nerds has a made a thread to get some of you guys access and I just made another post in the thread emphasizing he's the new team trying to get set up. I'm sure someone will sort out your access in the next day or so. In the meantime, Ches, don't make your 1.03A pick tomorrow until we have sorted out the access and trade.

Ches Neckbeard posted:I'm in ok, I saw and accepted your trade on the FS forum. But, there is a problem at the MFL site for draft A. Draft A isn't snaking (someone screwed up its setup), so we need to wait on it to be fixed before you actually possess 6.10A. Hopefully someone will do that this afternoon. Once that's fixed I'll set up the trade on MFL. Drunk Nerds, also see the follow-up FS post to your attempt at a 3.11/3.12 trade. Since it's a trade among members of the same team, it has to be posted in the "intraboard" trade thread instead of the "interboard" thread. You want to post it here: https://www.fantasysharks.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=136&t=351567
