Directions to sign up for your league!

Postposted on Thu Aug 12, 2004 9:20 am

OK, here is what you need to do to sign up. First, a few items of note:

1) Please sign up no later than noon on Wednesday, August 18th. If you don't sign up by then, I'm going to assume that you don't want to play anymore and I'll replace you with someone off the waiting list.

2) Try to keep team names clean. Yahoo has a strict no-profanity policy in their fantasy leagues, and I have seen them enforce it. They threw a friend of mine out of a baseball league because his team name was naughty.

3) Note that I had to slighty change 2 of the draft times. 8 pm wasn't available for a couple of the nights.

4) Please check this thread to see what league you're in. Please do not sign up for a league other than the one you were drafted into. If you don't like the league you got drafted into, take it up with Fate, she's the one that did you wrong.

OK, on to it:
TR Postfu R Us (Draft: Tue Aug 31 8:00pm CDT)
League ID: 387198
Password: techreport

TR Folding Association (Draft: Thu Sep 2 8:30pm CDT)
League ID: 387263
Password: techreport

TR Forum Freeks (Draft: Wed Sep 1 9:30pm CDT)
League ID: 387308
Password: techreport

To sign up:
1) Go to yahoo.com, click on Sports
Image

2) Click on Fantasy
Image

3) Click on Sign Up Now
Image

4) Click on Sign Up Now (again)
Image

5) It may or may not ask you to sign up again (mine did once and didn't once :-? )
Image

6) Agree to terms, then click Join Existing Custom or Public League
Image

7) Click Join a Custom League
Image

8. enter your league ID and password from above and you should be ready to go.

Once you sign up, you'll see where you can pre-rank players and test your system to make sure it can run the live draft. Any questions, let me know.

I'm signed up as the "Evil Overlords." Unfortunately I think the Overlords are going to get overwelmed this season. Time to research some draft picks.

Worked like a charm for me too. I'm the Cannibalistic Crshrs. (stupid 20 character max :x )

I just hope the pre-rank system works to my advantage. If not......my MLB eats the first opposing RB to get the ball. :o

By the way, what happenes if you arent around for the draft?

Yes that is why you pre-rank players, the draft will select the next highest availible player on your list when you selection comes up.

I however will be there on time and ready.

The Infirmary name comes from a season a few years back where I lost 6 players to injury in the first 3 full weeks. Most of them for the year, not to mention Faulk miss some games. Yet I still made the playoffs.

Well... "Death from player injuries and repeated drug violations" would not fit.

You're in! There's one more slot left, in the Postfu R Us league. I'm going to PM everyone on the waiting list one more time (they all got at least one PM, so far Derfunk is the only one to act on it). First come, first gets the last spot.

Yes, I have acted...the B*Funk All-Stars are coming to a Forum Freek league near you. bwahaha!

Football is about the only sport I even like outside of baseball, though it's something of a distant second...this will give me all the more excuse to pay attention this fall though. :D
I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do, I do not do. But what I hate, I do.
