Avernus Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 when is a good time to do this?.....hmm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skippy Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 Honestly now is about the right time. I have started it in years past before this but if you want to get to at least 75 then this would need to get rolling now. If you, or some others are willing to help me, I would fire it up for Monday. I am good for a final count latter in the night but if we have a real clear run-away vote early in the day I would like someone that can close it up and start a new thread. I would actually like someone that could commit to a time frame of say 1-3pm ET each day to check it out and open a new thread if needed. Anyone able to do this can let me know right in this thread and I would use this thread to work out the what's whats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could do it around 3 pm every day...and either do a tally at that point...or start the new pick... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skippy Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 I did it last year I think...

In fact last year was really bad for me and I think you pretty much ran it. This year looks a little better for me but I still very much like the help. I like to open a new vote later at night and I don't like to close it up too early, (pisses people off). I like most people to get a chance to vote even if it is a bit of a run-away. However, if there is no way in hell after about 20 votes that anyone else is going to win other than the leader then I don't mind closing a thread and starting a new one. You and I should be able to handle this pretty well. You will be the early guy and I would be the later guy most of the time. Now lets get this thing promoted and start this thing out tomorrow night.

Avernus Posted June 3, 2006 Author Share Posted June 3, 2006 fair enough....and yeah...after about the 1st 5 picks...I started to get a real good gauge on how long to let it run... and the 1st 5 picks are usually landslides.... but umm....I'm not sure if we did PPR in previous years...I'd say to do that because most leagues are having that mandatory nowadays.... but it's your call...something to change it up a little...

What do you think is most common for the PPR? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgemoe Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 I've usually been around to help as well. Skip/Av give me a holler if you need me to cover something for you. Otherwise I'll stay in the background. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Early in the vote there are always a lot of people willing to make those first 15 or 20 votes so yes your help is very welcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you think is most common for the PPR? 1497578[/snapback] just 1 point per reception...some do .5, but I think 1 is fine...that seems to be the norm..

Too many times we've had three or four of us closing/starting votes. So I'll stay on the sidelines until you email or PM me into service. Just wanted to let you know I'm available if needed. I'll most certainly be doing mid vote tallies though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skippy Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 I've always been pretty good with sending out a PM to Georgemoe or Big John for that matter when I knew that I was going to be out of the loop. I think we will get things rolling pretty good and you will know when to jump in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
