All right, I'm down for this shindig. Except I've probably missed the draft. Shit.

Still time, I think, though you had better bring along a friend too because odd numbers of teams fucks up the league.

'Tis ok. I'm enlarging the league to 10 teams. FoxSports right now has a message posted that they're experiencing issues with the site currently but not to worry they have people working on the problem.

Brahm, once Fox has fixed their stuff I'll send you the invite.

metal_xxx, once Fox has fixed their stuff I'll enlarge the league so that it will accept you.

The draft has been moved to tomorrow night 9/15/2008 @ 10pm!!

Fox Sports is verrry slow at the moment, no idea if I'm too early, too late, or what. It won't let me change anything on my team page, all the slots seem to be empty. Halp!
Edit: ah, I'm early. Is it possible to bring the time forward by an hour or so, otherwise it starts at 3am here... :sad:

We're still working out the kinks on what would be the best time for everyone anyway. Fox Sports is experiencing terrible tech difficulties today and they're still working on the site. We can only wait until they fix whatever is wrong.

It has been created gentlemen. I just need your e-mail addresses so that I can formally invite you. The live online draft is set for this Sunday morning 9/14/2008 @ 10am. Right now it's set for 8 teams. If we have more interest I can add teams. I've already invited the Zadster. PM me people.

We still have 4 spots open football fans. Don't be shy. Step up and carry the rock. Send me a PM with your e-mail address and come have some fun with us. So far I've heard from the Zadster, Adam, and Ness.

If everyone can decide on a more conducive time that will accommodate as many people as possible across the globe then I am more than willing to change the draft time. Everyone let me know what works for you.

We can only wait until they fix whatever is wrong. I realised I'm a day early, but if it goes ahead as planned tomorrow, that time is 3am here. Will it cripple me to wait until the next day, as there's no way I can stay up that late on a workday? Or could we change it so it's an hour or so earlier? = above post's edit. Hopefully it won't be delayed long by the tech problems, assume that changes everything.

Well, I'm pissed that Fox has not fixed the site yet. We need space for 10 teams and the system won't let me make the adjustment from 8 to 10 teams. I swear I'm about to change the entire thing over to NFL.com. This is pure crap!!! Who's in for switching to NFL.com???

Well, I'm giving Fox Sports one last shot to help us with our issue. I just e-mailed them and explained the issue I'm having changing the # of teams from 8 to 10. If I don't hear from them within 12 hours, I'll switch it over to NFL or CBS and contact everyone. Thank you all for being so damn patient and understanding. This is just the kind of luck I have

The one day I can't make it... I'll be working.... btw, don't change the draft date... I'll go with what the comp drafts for me.

I'll be working for the draft too, but if what Ness says is possible, I really don't mind letting the comp choose. Though if everyone is really, really nice they might let me get Brett Favre...
