  1. Great draft, folks! The draft data is all posted on the Yahoo site and is ready for you to pick lineups.
  2. Serpentine Draft Order (picked by my daughter literally out of a hat)

    1) Shnax
    2) Budweiser Bullies
    3) Buck's
    4) Hawkeyed's Pimps
    5) Evie's Devils
    6) Astoria Archangels
    7) Ronin's Murderlators
    8) Amp's Engineers

    We have the global channel set up and Evie (Base Mistress that she is, w00!) has set up a meeting room for us in the Wings over Paragon SG base.

    Cya in a few!
  3. Well, the Yahoo system won't let me schedule a Live Online draft the same day, so I guess it's fully Offline and I'll do the submitting. Bah, my fault for not checking this yesterday. Sorry about that.
  4. We have two non-autodraft options, doing it Live online through the Yahoo website or totally offline and then I have to submit the results to the site.

    I was leaning towards doing the Live online option with us in a global channel/IM chatroom (with the global channel being the easiest to gather us together). The only obstacle I can see to that one is if someone's PC can't handle doing both the game and this at the same time. (I'm running on two PCs, so I have no problems there) We can always do the fully offline version as a backup.

    Being commish is a learning experience, definitely. It hasn't helped that Real Life has been kicking my butt this past week, too. I appreciate all of your patience.

    I could totally make up a "draft room" in the Wings Over Paragon" base if we wanna do this
    That sounds like an excellent idea. I think I have most of your global IDs (well, about half). I'll be on my namesake character for ease of identification.

    Mine: @Jimmy Amp

    My next order of business is setting the draft order, which I totally forgot about until now /facepalm. I'm thinking I'll have my daughter pick them out of a hat. ;-)

    ETA: 10pm Eastern time.
  6. 10pm Sunday works well for me as well. If that's bad for anyone, just let me know.

    As for how we'll get together, I was thinking either a Yahoo IM chat room or Teamspeak. Any preferences?
  7. I was hoping to do it in the afternoon on Sunday. Early evening on Sundays gets a little crazy for me until 9:30 or so, but that time can work for me as well.
  8. It'll be tough for me to pull it off during this coming week. My boss sprung some projects on me that'll have me working late on stuff that has to be done after market close. Saturday the 5th is the day we're having my daughter's birthday party since her birthday was the day before school started. Sunday the 6th would work real well for me. How does that sound?
  9. I was hoping to do the draft absolutely no later than a week before the season begins. I thought we'd be filled up before now.

    I don't even get home til 8pm eastern most weeknights. A weekend would probably be best.
  10. Just played all day with the 190.62s and the TDR registry entries. No crashes at all. I'd say give them a shot.

    ETA: Almost forgot: I'm running Vista 64 with a BFG Geforce 285.
  11. It's a possibility, but we'd all have to be able to be there, which is the hardest part, of course. What does everyone else think?
  12. Looks like Nvidia released the 190.62 drivers on Friday. I've been stable with the 186.18s. I'll try the 190.62s today and report back.

  21. Got ahold of Jumpmaster on email through the league's website on Yahoo. He won't be running it this year.

    I'll go ahead and get the league started on Yahoo, unless someone else REALLY wants to be commissioner.
