Hey DO and KState thanks for a couple years ago and sorry about last season. I fell by the way side when I took a consulting job which took me out of the draft. Good luck in the future with the league. I am going to try to get back into one that does a draft a little easier on time.

Cheers

Fair enough SGE.

Not sure how I can make the auction any less time constrained. With the 6pm signing each day and each player with a new high bid after noon rolling over, you really only have to check the site once per day between 12-6pm.
I'm working on a live auction, but not sure if it will be ready for this season.

If you have any suggestions how I can improve things, let me know.

Consider yourself in LG. As soon as I finish the visitor pages updates this week end, you can take a look and pick your team from the TBDs. You can also see the rules and such.

You can check out most of the league at http://www.maxfl.com/visitors/main.cfm?LeagueID=1054.

Stay away from the Lineups page, as it leads you to the Example 2002 league.

Some of the other pages are probably also broken right now. I'll get them fix as I get to them. These are only the visitor version. The actual league pages work fine, if you're a league member.

Also, for keepers, we allow each owner to keep up to 3 players from last year's roster. The new salary will be based on alst year's plus an increase based on how well they did in the previous year. Top 5 players in each position get a 15% pay raise. The next 5 get 10% and all the rest get 5% (all dollar values are sounded up).

Turns out, any page with it's own controls (like position selection or such) will error out on the visitor side of things. I set the menu system to recognize that the user is not logged into the league, but each individual page must also be updated to work with a visitor. I'm on it.

I'm interested in another BOTH league if there is room. I haven't been in an auction league before, but I'm sure it'll be a short learning curve.

Look under Auction\Signed Players. If they're not on that list, they were added as an FA later in the season.

Good names should be stolen and disseminated throughout the FF world. Maybe this year I'll appropriate one of my own all-time faves - "Beer Bottle In Yer Eye" and "Never Shave on Sunday".

Yes, you were in it last year. Yes, I am counting on you being in this year. Hopefully you can be a little more active in the auction and field a competative team this season.

Open 'League Selection' on the menu and select Join League. Join the Corleone lLeague. The password is 'theHuddle'. Post here what your login and new team name is.
I will assign you a team once the picks have all been made.

That goes for all four new owners. you don't need to know what team you are taking over in order to join the leage and enter a team name.

Teams have been reassigned to the new owners, except Los G. The new team name will not take affect until the 2005 season is started (Keeps the history for the team in tact)
I will open keeper selection once Los G gets to the site and joins the league.

You other three should go to the site and make sure you can access the correct team. I've had problems in the past with new owners getting a team this way. If it doesn't work for you, I have my new DSL package waiting for me at home and will be able to get online tonight to fix things. :Fingers-crossed:
