Ok, who's in?

We'll be doing a Yahoo fantasy pool, with a live draft, tentatively scheduled for Sunday Sep 27th at 8:45pm EST. The league will use a H2H scoring system, which I'd be happy to explain in detail, but basically means that each week you're competeing against another team in the league.

The league ID# is 184439

I joined but I won't be able to make the draft unless its pushed back an hour, i have to work that day.

Lithium4 · 09-20-2009, 03:03 PM

The draft date and time can be changed, although there was nothing available on that day later than 8:45. If anyone can't make the draft at the time posted should mention it and we'll try to fine a time that works.

pokeherpro · 09-20-2009, 04:25 PM

I joined.

La_Resistance · 09-22-2009, 12:06 PM

I've joined too. Still not sure about how the head to head works tough. And I might have a hockey game on sunday evening, yet to be confirmed...so it's possible I won't be there for the draft.

I think head to head works by coming all the relevent stats of all the players in your starting lineup, for the entire week, against the person in your league that you are playing against that week. If you end up with more points that week, you're 1-0-0 and you play another team the following week.
I'm not sure what stats they count but I imagine it's more than just goals and assists. +/- might count, penalty minutes, PPG, SHG, etc.

Cool. Sounds like an interesting concept.

The turnout has been low so far, we may have to push the draft back a few days if we don't get more people soon.

How many are we aiming for? Last I looked, we had 5...I think 8-10 would be nice. Come on people!

JFmtl · 09-23-2009, 06:11 AM

C'mon, don't we have more hockey fans around here???

IllusionalFate · 09-23-2009, 04:13 PM

Just joined. We should be able to get at least 2 more people to sign up for this by the draft I would think, which would work out great.

Lithium4 · 09-23-2009, 05:02 PM

We'll have to start harrasing known hockey fans soon. McQueen, I'm looking in your direction.

Maybe some people are too afraid of getting owned

Lithium4 · 09-27-2009, 06:45 AM

OK, guys, I pushed the draft back. We are only 6 right now, so it can't hurt to wait a few more days.

IllusionalFate · 09-27-2009, 02:56 PM

Shouldn't we have the draft sometime before the first puck is dropped on Thursday?

Lithium4 · 09-27-2009, 03:05 PM

Ideally, but it wouldn't be that big a deal if we had to wait a couple more days. Of course if nobody else joins then it would have been a waste to have held off, but I'm hoping we can get a couple of later signups. At the very least we should have 8.

JFmtl · 09-27-2009, 04:38 PM

c'mon people, join, that will be fun

JayDontCareEh · 09-27-2009, 05:15 PM

I'm kinda new here and have never been in a hockey pool, but I'd be willing to give it a go...

that's if it's not to late.

JFmtl · 09-27-2009, 05:17 PM

it's not too late, you can still get in
