OK NFFC, I haven't done much here in past few years and no teams at all in 2018 but this is a cool format, I had to return.
Looking forward to getting started. It's simple..... don't finish last. LOL

Greg, just an FYI, there might be guys in this league who don't know it's going. I was surprised this morning to see it was sold out. The guy at #1 made his pick, #2 is on clock with about half of his time gone. (That would be a John Hall -- is this the former placekicker for the Jets??) # 3 is there and waiting.

NOW ONLY 9 SPOTS LEFT in the next $200 AND $400 4-Hour Guillotine leagues. We really want to start these no later than Friday of this week, so jump in now if you still want to compete in this unique contest and in this format. We will shut this format off after we fill these two leagues up and then try to schedule a couple of nightly Guillotine leagues before the start of the season. Look for that soon.

But let's first sell these two out. Nine more spots for each one and then we start drafting and avoiding the guillotine during the season:

NFFC $400 Guillotine League 2
4-Hour Draft
Draft Starts 30 Minutes After League Fills:
1. Rakesh Chilakapati
2. thad shirley
3. Guy Matz
4. Chad Poznansky
5. Jesse Jordan
6. Kenny West
7. William Smith
8. John Pierce

NFFC $200 Guillotine League 8
4-Hour Draft
Draft Starts 30 Minutes After League Fills:
1. Bob Vukson
2. Neil Reich
3. Josh Drisko
4. Mark Hatton
5. Dustin York
6. Jeff Thomas
7. Patrick Patnode
8. Christopher Worstell

Okay, I just sent out an email to all owners who have already competed in the Guillotine league stating that this is our LAST CALL for the next 4-Hour $200 and $400 Guillotine leagues. Jump in now if you want to compete in these next drafts because we are going to close these off once they are full. We'd love to start these no later than Thursday. Thanks all.

This format has been well received by our players and I think this format will grow in popularity in time. There is nothing else like this in the industry and I think it's going to be talked about a lot during the season as the FAAB will be like nothing we've ever seen. Having a team's full roster being put back into FAAB each week is going to be wild and change the dynamics of the league each week. Can't wait.

While the 4-hour Guillotine leagues will go away this week, we will set aside Friday as the night for the 1 minute per pick drafts. First draft is this Friday and we'll continue each of the next two Fridays. Getting 17 owners on one night might not be easy to do, but I think we can do that this close to the season. And then we'll continue with Guillotine drafts before Week 2 (16 teams), before Week 3 (15 teams), etc. with the lowest number of teams being 8. Each Draft will be held on a Friday night at 9 pm ET.

Thanks all and good luck.

NOW ONLY 6 SPOTS LEFT in the next $200 4-Hour Guillotine league.

Loved this league and will be back again next year.

In my long career playing fantasy sports I never got luckier than I did in league # 7 this season. Several weeks I went into Monday night needing points to stay alive. Never more so than in week 12 when I needed a monster performance by Lamar Jackson on Monday to survive. I'm figuring I'm dead. Lamar has the game of his life, and it's on to week 13. Then, did enough in the 3 week playoff sprint to get 3rd place, in a very tough league.
