Where do we officially sign up to accept Greg's offer for a GAMERS 2 DC league? And what will the prize fund look like? I didn't want to schedule anything until we got through tonight's three pay drafts. It looks so far like all three went okay, although we're not done yet. If after these are done and folks want to do a Gamers 2 League on Wednesday night, I'll gladly invite everyone to attend again and I'll take any spot that doesn't get filled. Tom too, Geoff too, if needed. We want to be in there and help anyone who is struggling here.

Let's get through tonight and if Jules can make it on Wednesday night along with others we'll figure it out and see what we can provide for prizes. We have some good autographed items we can play for. But more importantly, I want to show you the updated software can work and the Draft Board and all Admin tools are there that WERE NOT there for Gamers I.

Sound good?

Obviously that shouldn't happen Joe and I didn't hear of anyone else doing that, but let's see. What browser are you using? I was logged in as you early on to help out and I saw the first two rounds load onto my grid before I saw you were fine and logged out. I told Tom I was ready to help if needed.

Join us on Wednesday and let's make this better. I'm a bit perplexed. I use Mozilla and in the practice drafts, it updated each pick great. today I had to hit F5 EVERY time i saw a pick made in chat so that the grid updated. Do you understand?
[/QUOTE]Yup and it definitely shouldn't do that. Firefox should work. I'll see what IT says, but this should work just like it did in the mock drafts for you.

I've lined two GAMERS draft, since you have everyone's e-mail, can you send a blast out to everyone to see if they are available? Then we can post a thread and fill it if some folks can't or don't want to do it.

Thanks.

Where was the official offer? I didn't receive an email. There wasn't an official offer posted. Greg called as many people as he could to talk to them. He might not have been able to reach you. That's why I said didn't know if he had spoken to everyone yet. Give him a call or shoot him an email and I know he'll be happy to go over everything with you. [/QUOTE]You know, I've talked with a lot of the former FFOC players this week and this is a great, great group of fantasy players who are looking for another alternative game this year, one that will pay off their prizes and provide them with a competitive playing field. We are getting all kinds of crossover play right now and you can see it with our Online Championship signups. We have over 210 teams registered right now and we're going to hit 600, I can tell. These folks want to play again in 2010 and I'm glad we're able to reach out to them and talk with them.


Chopped liver checking in.ffoc had over 6500 teams,gamers has 14. Phone must have died . I love how you guys put a spin on things. Are you guys politicians?

What would that be, a bp stock autographed by bernie madoff?

as much as i would enjoy a repeat, i'll have to pass if it's done later than wednesday night. i'll be on the road thursday evening as we're taking a family vacation.

please, don't adjust the schedule JUST for me. should be no problem finding another GAMER. if necessary, i'm sure one of the original entrants that missed out because of the schedule change could participate.

greg, thanks for working with this group and everybody else in making the draft site a more user friendly experience.
