NBA Training camp is in full swing now which means the NBA season is right around the corner. This thread is to gauge interest and set up a draft date for the league which starts on October 25th. That's the last week of the month so drafting the week before would probably be my preference. We'll be playing on ESPN which requires an account and an email. Both are free and easy to make. Newbies will be welcome to and encouraged to join! This is really fun and its a blast rooting for your players. Just going to copy this next part from Finch's post 2 years ago. 1. STAY ACTIVE, EVEN IF YOUR TEAM SUCKS. I can't stress this enough. Again, if you've played before, then you how annoying it is if people forget about the league and stop caring. If you go inactive, you will not get to play next year. 2. There are no rewards, as of now at least. 3. Taken directly from Waterbomb on smogon because he says it best: No gimmicks. Being a beginner is acceptable. Asking for advice occasionally and in private is acceptable. Being completely dependent on everyone else without doing your own research is not. Most major Fantasy hosting websites have written tutorials on how to play, and I suggest you check them out if you've never done this before. The league starts in late October and runs until April, so be prepared to be active for those 6 months. It's really only about 6 day a week commitment (it can get a lot longer if you do research) so its really not that much. I'm also looking for (a) cohost(s) although preference will be given to people I've previously worked with. PM me on the server or here if you are interested. You can also PM me if you have any questions or w/e Post "in" if you want to play! 1. MeowMix 2. Duster 3. Water 4. Cheeze 5. jalmont 6. diamonds 7. ashley 8. EDR 9. AO 10. Kogent
WHEN DRAFT MEOWMIX????? edit: if you aren't in the league yet give me or meow (or celes) your email and we'll add you.
The first game is on October 25th, so I would like to draft during the weekend directly before (22nd or 23rd). I have a strong preference for Sundays and would prefer to draft on the 23rd, but if there is enough push for Saturday I can make that work. I think most of us would prefer an evening draft, but idk if anyone here is international; if there's anyone who cannot make a 6 or 7 PM EDT draft time, please let us know now so we can push the time up.
I have a lacrosse game Saturday and mom's birthday is also saturday, so Sunday evening would be best for me
I bumped the draft time to 11 PM EST on Sunday to accommodate Diamonds dumb work schedule and west coast people. If this doesn't work for you let me or meow know.
