Foot.ie NFL Fantasy League

**Aberdonian Stu** · 02/08/2006, 10:58 AM

Guys I've set up a foot.ie NFL fantasy league on Yahoo.

The league id is: 327511
The password is: f34523

Draft is live at 4pm on Saturday August 19th.

You need to sign up to Yahoo to play but it's free so don't worry.

MODScould you make this a sticky please?

Ooooh a live draft, mate of mine was involved in one last year and he said it was brilliant craic. The league I was in was just a standard draft

Thanks for adding the link Dodge!

Looks like me and you Stu. I've posted on the Pats MB too.

I've deliberately set a long deadline for the draft (the same day we were supposed to play Dublin City) so I can hold off asking my buddys outside of foot.ie for a week or so.

There were a few regular punters on the NFL/NCAA discussion last season so I figured I'd give them a chance.

We had a similar problem with the DCU team fantasy league so we let a couple of the Rebels sign up but then a few of the guys got back from holiday and missed out.

I can't access any of those links at work - but i assume you can enter anytime before the draft? I'll enter either this evening or Tuesday.

**Dodge** · 03/08/2006, 10:55 AM

**** didn't realise there was a limit...

**Clifford** · 03/08/2006, 11:43 AM

I'm going to go in now and register, will try to get my brother hooked up as well tonight.

**Aberdonian Stu** · 03/08/2006, 11:43 AM

Yeah 12 team max.

Yes you can enter the draft anytime Real Ale although obviously the sooner the better (I'm not sure if there is a limit to within 24 hours of the draft or something, so that's why).

I removed the link on the Pats board, we're setting up our own. Non live draft

**Clifford** · 03/08/2006, 1:35 PM

I registered ok, get this when I try to log into the league.

There was a problem
There was a temporary problem with the server. Please try again shortly. (Error #115)
The password is incorrect. (Error #109)
The league is not in pre-draft mode. (Error #209)

Helppppp

EDIT: All ok again, human error as usual!!

**Dodge** · 03/08/2006, 1:40 PM

Just start again.

**Clifford** · 03/08/2006, 1:52 PM

OK - I'm in. I've no idea what I'm in, but I'm in.

Anyone want to do a simpleton run down of things?

This draft on the 19th at 4, do we all have to be logged in at that time to act out a live draft etc? I'll be there if so.

It seems to have given me a squad already (a quite good one at first glance). Is this it for me for the season or am I allowed chop and change after the draft?

Sorry to be so dingbat about it, but it looks great.

You have to log in to take part in the live draft otherwise Yahoo will autopick (this generally isn't a good thing!).

Run the live draft tester to see if it works on your system. A link should appear close to the draft itself. I'll post here as soon as I work it out.

I don't know why it says you have such and such a team now Clifford. All players will be selected on draft day.

If it's anything like nfl.com or espn.com then there will be 90 seconds for each pick.
