HEAT FANTASY LEAGUE 1 (2011 - 2012) Discussion thread

[_Supreme_]

If we move the draft date to next week we would lose out on another week in an already short fantasy season, so it's best if it stays at tomorrow.

Idk why the 12th person hasn't signed up yet, but if he doesn't sign up within a couple of hours I will make another Yahoo account, let that one draft, and give it away to someone later.

Also I will ask one of PSD's moderators to determine our draft order for us today (this can be done using an internet randomizer like we did for PSD league 1).

I sent Sports Illustrator a PM and asked him to do it and post the results here.

And I can only assign the keepers to their managers after I know the draft order because I have to set both by hand.

[daleja424]

okay... IM looking forward to seeing where I am drafting and who will be available.

I might actually try to draft well this year.

12) Manager X

^Those were the names given to me by Supreme, so I numbered each manager according to that order and will use random.org (the sequence option) to determine the order of this draft.

Here is the order that I received from random.org:
6
12
2
8
1
4
7
5
10
9
3
11

So here is the order for this particular draft.
Pick #1: 6) J$mooth
Pick #2: 12) Manager X
Pick #3: 2) Daleja424
Pick #4: 8) Mr Baller
Pick #5: 1) Kjoke
Pick #6: 4) Diehardheatfan
Pick #7: 7) Zo#33
Pick #8: 5) Mikealike305
Pick #9: 10) Unleashthebeast
Pick #10: 9) Slug3
Pick #11: 3) HeatBB
Pick #12: 11) _Supreme_

Diehardheatfan and J$mooth have not posted their keepers yet.

Diehard had Wade & Dwill, so I am going to assume he will want to keep those. The third keeper can be Cousins, Beasley or Dorell (or some others, but these were the best options). Until I hear otherwise I am going to go with the highest drafted player here which was Cousins (round 7).

J$mooth had Chris Paul & Gerald Wallace (or Manu Ginobili or Jason Richardson). I will put Andray Blatche as the round 7-12 keeper.

If these are not the players you want to keep, or if you want to keep less players, then let me know by the end of today please, otherwise it could be that I can't change them in time for the draft.

The same goes for everyone btw, check out if you got the correct keepers assigned @ the league's home page!

I am going to set the draft order & keepers right now...

[J$mo0th_3o5]

Niiiice first pick. Too bad I won't be able to make it for the draft. I'll be working

[b_rad23]

Interested in joining this/any HEAT league. PM with details if still openings or unclaimed teams.

[daleja424]

I hate my first pick... sigh

[J$mo0th_3o5]

Yeah I believe there's one last spot b_rad.

who is manager x?

It was only possible to set the custom draft order & assign the keepers with all 12 managers signed up, and the 12th person hadn't signed up, so I made an account and signed up with that.

B_rad23 can have it if he wants, but if I read Yahoo's explanation correctly it can't be withdrawn (and replaced with own account) because it would screw up the custom setup.

[zo#33]

Im going to a birthday party so I wont be able to make it. Have done a little bit of predraft rankings.

[J$mo0th_3o5]

I'm so pissed I had to miss the draft! My ****ing squad is sorry I tried logging in at work, but it was acting up.
