Do Not Sell My Personal Information

I have never done dynasty either, but I would like to give it a go. What platform are you guys on?

Platform hasn't been decided yet. I've mostly used Fleaflicker for my dynasty leagues and I like it, but I'm happy to do a league vote once we fill up the final few spots. I'll be creating a Group Me for the league next week and we can discuss it there, or you guys are more than welcome to make suggestions here. The only real requirements for hosting platform are that I am able to do custom editing of auction budgets since everyone will have different budgets each year (after year one, of course) due to their contracts and potential dead cap.

I'd also prefer to avoid MFL simply because we have to pay a yearly fee to use it and I don't think this league is complex enough to bother with doing so. Plus, we'll be using League Safe for dues and I believe there's already a fee for using that service.

As long as it's not ESPN, I'm good.

I still like Yahoo, but haven't given the modern options enough of a shake. I'm sure they're better.

I vastly prefer Fleaflicker's interface to Yahoo's clunky mess. They have an app, but their mobile site works so well on my phone's web browser that I don't even bother with it.
 
And for those of you who are in, let me know what draft days/times you can do, or what days/times absolutely will not work for you so I can work on getting the draft scheduled. For an auction draft, it's a hell of a lot more fun if everyone is there so you don't have autodraft bidding up all the players to whatever value the host platform has assigned to them.

Would we do this over zoom or just on the GroupMe?

I'll set up a GroupMe, but that will just be for league discussion.

The draft will be on whatever platform we choose. They pretty much all have auction functionality. If we want to do a Zoom I suppose we could do that too during the draft if enough people are interested.

Basically, after the draft but before the season starts, you guys will let me know how long you want to sign each player at the value you won them for in the draft. I'll create a google doc that will have all the contract info and will set it up so you guys all have read access.

Okay, so as of now we have the following people on board:

@Chris do you want the last spot?

Also, can you guys all confirm that you're still down? JDailey is currently banned for a month but he let me know on GroupMe that he's still in.

The weekend of the 27-29 is bad for me. Sunday, 9/5 is bad as well. I don't know how long an auction draft takes, but I'd prefer a weekday night just to be safe...maybe between Monday 8/30 and Thursday 9/2?

I expect it will take around two hours.

We'll have less spots than a traditional dynasty league due to the format, and the end of auction drafts usually goes pretty quick once everyone is out of money.
 
Monday, Tuesday, Thursday between 7-10pm works for me
 
What’s the auction budget and roster size?
