If I get the Canucks I might seriously look at folding or just tank every game on purpose.

A friend of mine wants to join but he doesn't know the exact date of when he'll be getting the game.

So are the teams being Randomely selected? I know its going to be a random dispersal draft but the teams themselves? Is it going to be a pick in order you signed up in or person in signup spot 1 gets the team with the most points from the regular season last year? LOL Jobo=Nucks.

3 days to go !!!

And, yes im aware the season will begin on the 17th, monday... But from the time you get the league up and teams/players distributed, will there be a "pre-season" window or something of the sort to test lines, make moves/tweaks before we start playing games?

... and then there were 30. God I'm terrified of picking 29th or 30th. How is it set up for anything related to pre-season?

If they are they will pick them in the draft, just like everyone else will pick their favorite avalible team.

With that team, you'll get the same result without trying!

Not if we were using default teams though haha. I can't believe the devs rated them so high. Best team in the league according to the ratings probably.

Thanks for posting the list Jobo! 11th, sweet!

EDIT: How does the system for choosing teams work? Does the first person pick a team and messages the second person (and so on) with the list of chosen teams so far?

The draft will begin in the morning of Tuesday, September 11th. How this will work is the player on the clock will select his team, post his team selected in this thread, and will also notify me and the next player on the clock of the team they selected. At this point it's the next person turn to select.

When sending the PMs to me and the next player on the clock, include the draft board up to your spot in your message so we can keep track of which teams have been selected. Therefore we prevent the risk of accidently selecting a team that has already be picked.

Example - likwid888 has made his pick. He would send this message to myself Diemenz since he's next on the clock:
Quote:
Calgarypuck League Draft Board
  1. HighLifeMan (Flames)
  2. FlamesFanStrandedInEDM (Kings)
  3. Celane (Blackhawks)
  4. likwid888 (Bruins)
And then Diemenz will make his pick and PM me and CsInMyBlood afterwards with this message:
Quote:
Calgarypuck League Draft Board
  1. HighLifeMan (Flames)
  2. FlamesFanStrandedInEDM (Kings)
  3. Celane (Blackhawks)
  4. likwid888 (Bruins)
  5. Diemenz (Canucks)
I'll post in this thread when the draft is live Tuesday morning.

The draft board in the second post of this thread will be updated as teams are selected.

You can't use your roster since the first game is you'll be able to play is first game of the regular season. So there's not really a pre-season. You can use the free time to make transaction adjustments with your team, and get some games in with your fellow league players so you can hone your skills.

Just so I'm clear on this, when we pick our team we don't actually get the players from that team and a random fantasy draft will determine who is actually on your team.

Correct?

That is correct. This is basically just choosing your logo.
