Alright. I'll reach out to him. May be able to do this on my own as well. Thought we were starting today. Haven't been reading this whole thread cause I'm at work. But I'll talk more when I get home.

[CelticConcourse]

[Edgar]

Okay, we have about 7 people who said they are willing to be a co-GM or looking for a co-GM or could help someone out as a co-GM. If some of you guys get together that will make things easy:

- BleedGreen1989/(co-GM curious)
- wdleehi/(looking to be part-time GM with someone that does most of the trade work)
- IndeedProceed/(can't be full time GM but will help someone out)
- KGs Knees(looking for co-GM)
- fitzhickey(wants to be someone's co-GM)
- Edgar(looking for co-GM)
- WeMadeIt17(willing to co-GM with someone, PM him)

So, here we go:

wdleehi / IP / Edgar mod super team
KGs Knee / fitzhickey
BleedGreen / WeMadeIt17

Done. 

Works for me as long as all are cool with it. 

That mod super team is perfect. wd does the drafting, IP the trading and Edgar the promotions. Quite the front office there.

No foulweatherfan or StartOrien?

Has there been a definitive start date decided upon yet?  I'm still debating on whether or not I'll have time.

As for whether or not I'd be looking for a co-GM or not, we'll see.  I'm not opposed to it, but I'd be hoping to pair up with someone who has a good amount of experience (if anyone will have me) with this if I'm going to go that route.  Otherwise, I'd rather just go it on my own.

You've got the chops to do it on your own, I'd say.  I'm available to consult with any GM who wants advice, and I'm sure nick is too.

As for time...  Make it.  Even if you can't commit hours per day, carve out some time to make picks and explore some trades.  You'll enjoy the process, I think.

Definitive start date is August 19th. Draft Lottery morning of August 16th.

[KCattheStripe]

Start Orien  is a wuss.

I appreciate the vote of confidence, Roy.

As for having time, that is still up in the air.  I'm going to be starting a new job in the next week or two, which sucks.  Unfortunately the contract I had for my cushy work-from-home job just recently ended, and wasn't renewed.  Even though my new job is a night shift position, I'm likely going to have to start on 1st for a week or two.  I doubt it would be too impressive if I was spending time at work on the blog, right off the bat.  After that, school will be starting up again.

Any ideas on what the draft times are likely to be?

I know this may not be well-received by more veteran posters, but I'd be interested if you have openings.

I have read this blog for years, but only just made an account so I could contribute. I also read the post on rules so I'm familiar with what I'm getting into.

Let me know if you'd be amiable to me joining...

Thanks

Welcome aboard man. Don't think anybody has a problem with new blood at all as long as you are respectful and like to talk hoops.

I'm thinking with 24 teams that times would be between 11:00AM and 3:30PM or somewhere thereabouts. Maybe even a little later depending on the length of the lunch break. If we gather up more teams maybe 10:00AM - 4:00PM and that would have to have a full 30 teams, which is looking doubtful right now.
