Bump.

We need 2 or 3 more players.
:(
I could try sending a PM out to some of the regular players, but it doesn't seem as if there is overwhelming interest

Why do we need 10 players? How about we start with 7 players or 8 if Tazz is interested in playing? The teams would be much stronger, hence we'd have more fun building the rosters/talking about them. We could do 3 rounds per day for a total of 12 or 15 rounds.

Not to mention, if we set a starting date, it's possible that more people will actually join the game as we discuss about the upcoming draft.

It's true, 10 is a fairly arbitrary number. I'd happily roll with 8

Awesome, that would put us at 8 if Tazz is able to. Everyone down?

Are we 8 players? If so, why not set a draft date, run the lottery and assign teams? (please gimme the Bucks)

Tazz, are you in?

The offseason is kinda dead. Now is the perfect time to start a fantasy game.

Fwiw, I'd be happy to help with commiss duties till the end of August and/or from mid September onwards.

I'd be interested in this. I don't have as many stars (current count:0), but I like the idea. I won't be offended if I don't make the cut.  ;D

Has the time frame (days and hours) for doing the draft been decided?

TP! Welcome aboard! No worries about the stars. I bet you'll select plenty of stars in the draft.  8)

TP to theswitch as well for joining the game!

Not yet. We usually run a poll in order to come up with the best possible solution for everyone involved.

Assuming there is an acceptable time frame, I'm in.

That's great! TP! I believe we are more or less ready to go! We can figure out the formalities once Gouki or RPGenerate logs in. I would have added the poll myself, but I cannot edit the OP.

Awesome, we've got 9 players now. Do we want to quickly hop to it and start the draft off by the end of August / start of September, or do we want to go more mid-September?

No problem by me. What about time difference though? I mean, we got posters from all over the world. Shall we run a poll to come up with the best possible solution (morning/afternoon/evening/night EST)?
