6th is fine by me. Oh and HI Eve!
If it must be the 6th it will have to be after 5pm central time or I will not be able to make it
So looking at what everyone is saying...10pm this Sunday!!! SUNDAY SUNDAY!!!
??
This Sunday at 10pm Eastern seems to accommodate everybody.
I can make that work.

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?

an IM prog works best cause TS it can be hard to hear sometimes imo
Sunday 10pm works nicely.
What about a vent server?!?

Either that or we can create a global chat channel in game for the draft.

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. |

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.

I should be available around 9:30 Eastern or so. I, too, will be on my namesake.
@Lich-King is my global.
I've never done a yahoo league before. Is there a particular reason we aren't drafting through the league website? I know espn has a very nice online draft utility.

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.

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.

No worries...
An in-game draft will be an interesting experience...
Admittedly, fictional superheroes getting together to play fantasy football is a bit... meta... but, should be fun.
See you guys around 10 this evening...

Great draft, folks! The draft data is all posted on the Yahoo site and is ready for you to pick lineups.

I decided to make it a little more fair for everyone this year by not participating (that, and I've been a bit busy so I haven't been ingame or on the forums to remember about it). Hope everyone took lots of Steelers...
Good luck to all! May you fear the swirled purple helmet regardless of who wears it!

Ah, too bad man. I wanted a title game rematch! ;-p
It's a little more interesting with only 8 teams this year. More talent per team.

Sad day for us Bear fans....
Awful doesn't even come close to what the hell happened last night in the state above us.
Seriously, your dude is running left and still throw up the middle to a guy wearing green not white.
Sad day for Hawk

sry Hawk
I would also like to add a live draft is preferable to auto draft to a great degree.
