Man,We had 7 signups for the Orlando auction and lost 4 in the last couple of days.I was looking forward to no phone hook-up this year. Dave, you might as well join us in the DC. I, too, was looking forward to a full auction league, but it definitely looks like it won't happen. [/QUOTE]Yeah, folks left that and are now going over to the $650 DC and that's fine. Let's see if we can fill that up in Orlando and have one full league there. We can still do that.

Patrick, are you returning to Orlando? We'd love to have you back. Stay in touch.

I will give it a little more time for the auction to fill.If not it will be the DC for me.

Greg and Tom,
How are we looking for the Super League in the NFFC and NBC? Do we think we will get this filled up? Just curious, cause Mike and I may join something else if it doesn't start to fill up fast. Not sure if you expect late signups based on what may have happened in years past or not.
Thanks,
Craig

Thanks,
Craig Craig, sorry I missed this one. We had planned to contact everyone today to see how flexible they were about the Ultimate and the Super to make sure we get at least one of these leagues. Then we added another Ultimate League team to get us to 11 there with the hope of at least one more. If that one remains at $5K, then we have to concentrate more on the Super as we're now at 9 teams there after getting a new signup on Monday. Can we find a suitable way to get to 12 teams there? I'm not sure, but I will try and don't really want to do it any less than 12.

So we'll work the phones and e-mails with everyone this week and see how close we can get. I don't want to tie up your $2500 up until Aug. 25th because I know you can invest it in other ways. We'll try to nail these two leagues down in the next week if that's okay. Sound good?

Greg...is the Super Draft going to be in the morning or the afternoon? It's currently listed as an afternoon draft, but I can only play it if it's in the morning due to my plane flight. I know there's at least one other team that's in in the same exact situation, so please clarify.

In addition, I might even be willing to switch to the Ultimate if needed, but again only if it were a morning draft as well.

Thanks!

Thanks! I just PM'd you Paul, but here's the score:

We have 11 owners for the Ultimate League in the morning and maybe one more. I'd like to host that in the morning for sure if we can get to 12 or 14.

We have nine for the Super, but two of those owners are in the Ultimate, so we can't do both at once. If we lose two owners by hosting it in the afternoon, that doesn't help at all either. So do we keep it in the afternoon and hope for last week signups or should we move the draft date?

I think enough folks like the $2,500 format that this league could fill, but maybe not on the date we have it. Would anyone be interested in doing this on Tuesday, Sept. 2nd via teleconference or on MDC.com?? I know that's a steep price to pay for a non-live events draft, but maybe this would help. Just a thought.

I'm working on filling the Ultimate now if possible. We'd have a spot for you in that if you want to drive live with us, but then we still have work to do on the Super. Stay in touch and we'll figure this out together.

Also Greg...part of the deal is that you'd have to be the one to explain the extra $2,500 to my wife!
