I know I said I was game for whatever, but I thought it was draft style so I didn't have to piss around at the computer every week also.

I guess I should've explained it better. It is a draft style. You will draft 15 players.

Every week you set a lineup of 12 active players. That is literally all you have to do. Of course, team owners can make trades and other moves as well.

The scoring system is head-to-head, meaning each week your lineup will go up against another team.

Really hoping we can get more people!!

If only 8 people join, I think we should change it to top 2 get paid.

Agreed. I'm gonna invite a couple friends from outside CP since the turnout has been lackluster.

We've used Fantrax for our keeper and dynasty league since the very beginning of their site. They have very good features and lots of customization. PM if you need some help.

It's offline (as in it won't take place over Fantrax.) I was thinking we can do the draft either in this thread or in the chat on Fantrax.

I did ask for suggestions...

Also not sure where people are getting the idea that they'll have to "dick around" at the computer every week. You only draft once at the beginning of the season, not each week.

You can change your lineups each week. i.e., changing out under-performing/injured players for those on a hot streak. pretty typical fantasy pool and the amount of "work" or "effort" you have to put in each week is comparable to most fantasy leagues: not that much.

Hope that clears it up and peeps join.

I am in and I'm good for $20. Just curious why you want to complete the draft offline? I can assure you that 12-14 teams drafting 15 rounds though chat (or even thru CP) is never going to work (unless you start now). Why don't you set a draft date online and those that show up can pick their players and those that don't will get BPA and fill their rosters.
