Yes, but to do that we have to set this up as the 3-City DC. When I sign you up it will say $1,000, but Tom will manually change the price to $250. Just a heads up there. Thanks all.

Okay, draft spots have been determined for tonight's 3-City Draft Champions League, which is part of the overall national contest. We will be picking 35 rounds tonight just as if this were a DC Express League. The only difference is that everyone is paying $250 for this league and each of the four winning team members will earn free entries into next year's Rotowire Fantasy Football Online Championship League. Good luck all.

The Midwest team is the defending Team Champion of this event and Billy Wasosky is the defending individual champion. Congrats and good luck to all.

Here's the draft order, which turned out pretty well:

NFFC 3-City Draft Champions League
Thursday, Aug. 6th 9 pm ET
Draft Order
1. Joe Conte (West)
2. Bill Cleavenger (Midwest)
3. Matthew Shepherd (East)
4. Kurt Kuekes (West)
5. Bryan Steimetz (Midwest)
6. Billy Wasosky (East)
7. Mike Santos (West)
8. Michael Edelman (East)
9. Wayne Ellis (Midwest)
10. Scott Atkins (Midwest)
11. KJ Duke (West)
12. Chris Vaccaro (East)

There is one team member in each of the quadrants of this draft. Even doing that, five owners still got their No. 1 preference and four owners got their second preference. After that the preferences received were the 4th, 9th and 11th. Good luck all and we'll see you tonight in the draft room.

Page 4 of this thread shows a 9pm ET start. This response and draft room clock is counting down a 8pm ET start. Are the East and West coasters ok with this?

My fault. That's what I get for posting that draft order without looking at the actual signup time. 9 pm ET it is. That was my fault. Sorry guys. See ya at 9 pm ET.

The one draft of the year that will completely drain you. Loved it. Ready to trash talk every single week. I was not on the Midwest last year but with my draft last year I did feel like I helped them. This time I drafted with them and I believe I helped them win again this year.
