Satellite Auction
Hey guys, here's the deal: I've contacted George del Prado of FantasyAuctioneer.com to see if his site could host this on Aug. 21 at 7 p.m. ET. If he says it's a go, we'll post the signups in our Satellite thread and see if we can fill this league up. Sound good?
One thing I really want to stress here, though -- if you guys are serious about this make sure your computers are very strong. Slower or lower-end systems can sometimes have trouble with the site and that means people get locked up or booted and so forth. We do not want to be stopping the auction constantly or rolling back and all that otherwise we'll be there for 8 hours. And nobody wants that.
Seriously, I cannot stress that point enough. If you guys want to do this, we'll run it and have some fun but please make sure your computer systems are strong enough to handle the site without any problems.
I've asked Jeff to e-mail me the list of names for the people who have signed up so far. Once I hear from George I'll let you know where everything is at.

My computer has been consitently injected with CGH, computer growth hormones, since I purchased it, other than a swelled motherboard, it's ready to go.

I've been talking to tom about promoting this league. A friendly reminder to all who are signed up from Tom: MAKE SURE your PC is strong enough to keep up with the site (fantasyauctioneer.com)
Johnny has already mentioned some things about the site on this thread. Everyone should go to the site and do a trial run as there will be no "do-overs") if your PC bogs down.
Tom has also requested the REAL NAMES of all who are currently signed up so he can list this league on the satellite sign up thread as Kevin suggested.
If everyone could list your real names here or better yet... send Tom an e-mail at [email protected] with your intentions of being in this league. Once you've contacted Tom please post here so we know who's info is missing.
If we do this along with everyone contacting a couple of folks via PM we should be able to fill the league in a couple of days. If you want this league to happen...everyone take a few minutes and follow through and it should get off the ground with no problems.
