Yes.  The Labatt Splats have made their triumphant entrance into the fantasy hockey world.

Good thing LabattBlue decide not to play this year or we think there was some collusion going on!

Welcome to the league, Corp!

Should we switch to Sat Oct 2nd?  Does 8pm work on that Sat for people?

It works for me, if that works for everyone else.

That's the hard part to figure out!

[thesportsbuff]

What about a Sunday? I mean to be honest, finding a time that all 16 people can make it is unrealistic to begin with, but Saturday nights people are more likely to be out doing stuff. If it's a Saturday night, I won't know if I'll be able to make it until an hour or so before hand, 'cause there might be a party or something going on... or there might not. But Sunday night it seems like more people would probably be home watching football or, even if you're not a football fan, at least you'll probably be home as opposed to out drinking or what have you.

I did mine Sunday at 7PM. We only had two people not show up (out of twelve), so it was a pretty good turnout. And I have the luxury of drafting on a laptop, so I was for the most part able to watch the Sunday night game and draft at the same time. The whole thing took about an hour, we were done by 8 - 8:15 or so. So that would be a better bet in my opinion.

Well it's a Saturday night. I guess I don't stay in and watch America's Most Wanted like everyone else :-P

I'm not gonna cry about missing it. Just saying I won't be there if the majority want it at that time and date.

[wjag]

My preference is not to move off of the 25th.

i'm good with after 9pm Saturday 25th, any time Sunday 26th, any time Saturday 2nd.

[Corp000085]

You all figure out when you want the draft.  I'm good for whenever as long as its after 7:30pm.  That gives me enough time to get my son asleep, my wife set up with popcorn for the evening, and time to slug down a couple beers before we start.

[nobody]

Hey ThePebble19 - I sent you a PM.  Please read it.  Thanks!

[nobody]

Turns out the 2nd won't work for me anyway; so we will leave it on the 25th.

I'll confirm the time shortly.

I would think that would be a fair thing.

[nobody]

So I guess I'll be switching the time to 9:30pm.  Forgot to do that yesterday.

So that will we tomorrow - Sat Sept 25 at 9:30pm EDT.

When I try to join Live Draft ... "This league is not currently drafting. (Error #260)"

[thesportsbuff]

Sooo has anybody else been able to join?

[nobody]

I probably need to set something.  one sec.

[Vanek-Man]

No. Not sure whats happened but the draft window usually opens up 25-30 min prior, we are 13 min away....

[thesportsbuff]

Well this is rather disappointing

[nobody]

I'm looking for the 'enter live draft' but don't see it.  I don't see anything in my commissioner tools.

If you go to "My Team" you get a popup to join the draft but it then says we aren't drafting.

[Calvin]

yep, i'm getting that error msg too

[nobody]

well this is a pain.

[SwampD]
