        Thanks Zombo.

        I got in and signed up. I understand that you are scared so you kept me in league 5 again this year. Next year I want into your league though so I can show you how this works. πŸ™‚

              The FF rooms were set early and often....nice work by the board (as usual)

              looking forward to it.

              (was left out a few seasons back... i quickly got over it while stinking up the joint....humbling for sure)... but know this...

              Bermeck's Ky Hicks were bought by a group of office temps from Facebook(inc)... Thier net worth seems to be in question, however, they have agreed to keep this poster-- as President & GM of the Hicks.

              Stay tuned... should be interesting.

              Bermeck

              Independence, Ky

              p.s. (what do you know.... my Browns "starting over again"....wow... its freakin sick...just sick... getting that 1999 vibe....sigh) πŸ€”

                          I've read this forum for many years before making an account. And I rarely post anything. But here I am. Ready to take home the trophy. This board is my respite from a sea of raven and steeper fans that populate md.

                            Just opened some spots in League IV, jump in.

                            You should be in League 1 with all of us old-timers, Kathy hasn't announced any openings yet though.

                            That is the original league that has been going for probably close to 15 years now, I think you were in it at one point.

                              I don't think Mark is old enough for the old-timers league. Just saying. πŸ™„

                                    League 4 is filled ... there may be some openings in League 1-3 coming up ... League 5 still taking teams.

                                        Ha! That's right you did ... then you got an invitation from Kathy in June. She needs to re-send it. I'm sure she will.

                                          Waivers

                                          More importantly A waiver period

                                          How about bringing forth that change this year Or let team owners vote to decide what they may or may not want

                                          Instead of first come first serve on getting the best players..... lock all players as of 1 pm Sunday

                                          and let teams put claims on players with the lower rated teams getting first crack or

                                          if you use a waiver claim on a player you go to the bottom of the waiver list.

                                          This from Yahoo New this year...

                                          Game-time waivers in Fantasy Football

                                          Description

                                          What game-time waivers are, and how to change your waiver options

                                          Resolution

                                          Game-time waivers are a new waiver option in Fantasy Football, which work with both standard and FAAB waiver systems. Game-time waivers are now the default setting for all newly created leagues, public leagues, and pro leagues, though the other three waiver options are also available.

                                          How game-time waivers work:

                                          Each free agent will be placed on waivers as soon as their game begins each week.

                                          Waived players will become available when the claim period ends at 11:59 pm PT on Tuesday.

                                          Players on a bye week will be placed on waivers at 5:30pm PT on Monday, which corresponds with the start time of the Monday night game.

                                          Benched players, even if their game time has begun, may be dropped for any available free agent.

                                          A comparison of waiver options:

                                          Game Time: All unowned players will be placed on waivers at the scheduled start time of their game. In Game Time Waivers, players on a bye week will be placed on waivers Monday night at 5:30pm pacific time.

                                          Sunday - Tuesday: All unowned players will be placed on waivers at 10:00am PT each Sunday with the claim period ending at 11:59pm PT on Tuesday.

                                          First game of the week - Tuesday: All unowned players will be placed on waivers at the start of the first game for that week with the claim period ending at 11:59pm PT on Tuesday.

                                          None: No waiver is in place.

                                          To set your league's waiver options (commissioners only):

                                          Sign in to your Fantasy Football league.

                                          Click the Commish Tools tab.

                                          In the "League Management" section, click the Edit League Settings link.

                                          Next to "Waiver Mode", change the setting to your preference.
