YOU ARE CALLING MY POOL WEAK?!
HOW DARE YOU CROSS THE COMMISH.......YOU WILL NOW PAY SEVERE CONSEQUENCES!!


Anyways, it's all the same to me, I just don't like making changes unless the majority agrees, which seems to be the case here.

Sure, add in SOGs, I don't mind...I more mind that I'm likely unavailable for the live draft as I have a work thing. Perhaps I can get some wireless action during lunch and make the first few picks.

EDIT: Just realized this is the head to head league (which I didn't get into) not the points league. (If anyone wants to trade leagues I'd be up for it as the draft on the 21st works for me, but not the 20th)

Hahaha, noooo, "kinda" weak. You run a damn good league for a bunch of strangers. SOG will definitely make the pool a more enjoyable experience. Let's try it for a year. If I'm wrong, we'll punt it next year.

It's the one category where you get something every night. How many nights do you remember seeing mostly zeros on the board last year. That gets really boring and uninteresting. It also makes a few more Dmen fantasy worthy.

Nobody has said no to it yet, we've had a couple yes's, and the rest have bothered to chime in.

SOG > GWG >>>>> SHP
Consider this a virtual second to the above quoted motion...

If anything, doesn't an easily accounted stat cat make things more competitive?

That said, according to icarus this is all a forgone conclusion though...

Fixed.
Now let's see if I can add a stat category at work.

According to the league page the draft won't happen if we have an uneven amount of teams. Right now we are at 17. Pagal?

You are correct....I think I've tracked down the culprit...and harassed him yesterday.

If he doesn't sign up by the time I get home, I will just have to harass him more.

Looks like it... may I ask why? I really think we should change it to 3 (or even 2).

The 4 goalie starts is for the WHOLE team, not per goalie.

If it was per goalie, I'd change it, but if you start 2 goalies, you just need 2 starts each per week minimum. Draft is in one hour.

Yes, Frequitude and I understand that. We've discussed it in depth and come to the conclusion that 3 starts would be much better. At this point however, I don't want to get back into the discussion of why that is, at if you are going to leave it at 4 that will be something that strongly affects my draft strategy.

Now that the draft has started, I guess we're set at 4. Fine by me. I just wanted to make sure so that I draft accordingly.

Ugh really frustrated. Computer froze up twice on me making me miss the first 5 rounds and rounds 13-16. And of course the computer takes no goalies for me in the first 5 rounds so I get stuck with Lehtonen and Smith. Like my team though except for the goalies. Probably going to cost me.

Ugg... forgot that Whitney was out for half the season. Now do I hold him for the playoffs? Probably depends on how I'm doing in the first few weeks. If I'm struggling to make the playoffs, I'll probably drop him, but will hold on to him otherwise.
