It says 12, however the Wednesday, Sept. 9th
9 p.m. EST draft has 13 teams These are 12-team leagues. We'll likely have 4-5 leagues on that last night, so we'll keep taking signups for 9/9/9:00 until we get to about 48. When we fill up a certain time and date, we'll put all the names in the computer for that time slot, randomly pick the leagues, run the KDS preferences and form the leagues.

As we stated previously, we planned on 300 teams for baseball and wound up with 600, doubling all of the overall prizes. We are on a good pace already for football and I would be very surprised if we don't have similar success for this format in football. Just sign up for a date and time that works for you and we'll do the rest, filling up each league until we're full. Thanks all.

Good luck in this Online Championship and good luck the rest of the way in baseball. You were leading the NFBC Online Championship for quite some time, so we're glad to have you in the football edition.

We're at 80 signups now for the NFFC Online Championship. It's a good start and I'll predict a finish similar to baseball when we soared past 300 and finished at 600 teams. We should finish strong here too. Thanks all.

Greg,

When is the cut off for each draft day. Ex. Tuesday 7pm, Sept 1st. Day before? Or when two Leagues fill?

Thanks,

John

Thanks,

John John, what we did for baseball was cut off certain dates when we got a perfect multiple of 12 and were within one week out of that draft date. So for Sept. 1st, we'd likely cut off signups around Aug. 24th or so if we were at 24 or 36 teams there. And we'll do that for each draft date going from earliest to latest. For baseball, we worked the math perfectly and nobody got shut out of any draft date, nobody got switched because of a lack of signups for any certain date and we hit a perfect 600 teams by filling up the last three draft slots a week before Draft Day. We could have gone beyond 600 teams, but our rules specifically state that this this contest will have a max of 600 teams so that you know well in advance what your odds of winning will be.

We'll run the NFFC Online Championship the same way. For baseball, we averaged 25 signups per day for the last four days until we hit 600, which was just wild. Hopefully we'll see the same push as these Draft dates get nearer.

THANKS.

Thanks for the props Greg, we'll be marrying off my daughter on Sept 6th in No Cal's the reason that I'll miss this years draft. Be sure to give George the benefit of the doubt on his picks and, if possible, could you film the Fischer Party and give George a copy to bring to me? That would certainly ease my angst at missing the draft.
