I am definitely still interested but i am just waiting to see when you guys solidify your draft date and rules to make sure i can do it. Will it be Nov. 1, 2 or 3rd? Will the time be 8pmEST or 11pmEST? Maybe 9:30pm EST could be good for both coasts especially if its done on election day(Nov. 2nd)...draft i think goes much quicker than football so should be able to finish in about 2 hours so i dont think east coast people would have to worry about losing alot of sleep...

Ok, let's wrap up the plans and finalize our list. We'll shoot for 1 full league and march it off. Here's the updates:

All the rules as previously posted above stand.

We'll run the league for free on Yahoo (I have the league reserved). We do not, however, have a very good option for online drafting. So, I will administer the draft in a live chat room... we'll take breaks every 5 rounds and we'll keep the draft list on a cut and paste post on the board for constant update. If everyone will kindly keep their lists up to date we'll have zero problems with duplicate picks.

The draft will be Monday, November 1st at 9:30pm EST. The NBA season starts on November 2nd and I don't want to worry about people watching the games for pickups, blah blah. The yahoo league will be available an hour or so after the draft is complete and you'll have through Tuesday at 6pm EST to set your lineups for the first week.

What else? Well, reconfirm you're 'in' - first 12 people to reply are in.

I'm in, Troy White from Leaderboard is in and Jay Smith from Leaderboard is in. That's 3, those of you who have committed in this thread keep your spots if you reconfirm. We'll fill up 1 league and wrap up the sample for Greg's observation.

Any further questions?

Please re-confirm that you are or are not in.

Thanks,

Dave

If you are working it through Yahoo does that mean you are still gonna use the free agency budget or is it gonna be the yahoo waiver wire rules?

Dave, I wish I could. But I think you know why I can't. But if you need a body, maybe we can work something out.

So am i correct to determine you will use Yahoo's positional charts for everyone and being that, some players will be able to play multiple positions?
