Fantasy Football Registration

It's time to start the registration for a cboard fantasy football league. Here are the instructions as follows:

go to www.sandbox.com
click on the "football" link
then click on "register now" in the top left hand corner
once you register, return yourself to the football main page
click on Football Live 2001
click on Create a Team

*excerpt*
To join an existing league, click on the "Join League" link on the Create/Join League page. You may join any Public league that is not yet filled. You can only join a Private league if you know the password. You can search for leagues by name or by any or all of the league options you are looking for.
If you know the name of the league you want to join, just enter the name and click on "Search" at the bottom of the page. Your search will return all leagues that begin with the letters you entered.
If you don't know the name of a league you want to join, then you can browse through leagues by clicking on the league options you want to participate in and entering a letter you would like to begin the search at. Click on the "Search" button at the bottom of the page. This will return a list of the leagues that fit your search.
Once you have found the name of the league you want to join, click on it and you will be taken to the League Info page. You will see who else has already joined this league. If there are any open slots, you can click on the "Join League" button at the bottom of the page. If you are the last team to join a league that is scheduled to draft when filled, you will have between 48 and 72 hours to set your draft card.

the name of the league is going to be "cboard" and the password is "football". after that everything should be pretty self explanatory. the draft type is going to be a
slow live draft and is going to start on aug 1. so there isn't much time left before registration starts. there will be a 10 team maximum limit.

if you have any other questions feel free to ask, and i hope to see you there.

p.s. for those that showed interest in the previous fantasy football thread have been sent a message

Well, so far we have 4 people signed up, including myself, for the draft. We need 6 more people still, and we only have 3 days remaining. So get a move on it if you want to be apart of the league.:)

howdy,
OK i signed up a team.
ive never done this so help me out here.
how will the draft work, do i need to be there Aug 1st and follow the entire draft? (thats not a problem im just trying to find out how it works)
what else will i need to know to participate?

M.R.

well, thanks for joining.

now here's how it's going to work. the draft is going to start on aug 1st. each person has 24 hours to make each pick. but typically you should be able to go through a couple of rounds each day. so even though you may have 24 hours to make your pick you don't have to use all that time. once it goes to the next person then that 24 hours restarts over for that person. the process will continue until the draft is finally over. the draft should last around 1-2 weeks depending on how long each of us take to pick.

here's how the picking will work

Code:

---

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1
and so on...

---

So if you are picking last in the 1st RD you will be picking 1st in the second RD.

You should have already filled out a draft card. That draft card determines how many picks you can make at each position. This below should be able to help you determine how many guys you want of each on your draft card.

Q: How many athletes do I start in active roster slots each week?
A: You will be able to start up to 11 active players each week. You have room to start a Quarterback, Running Back, Wide Receiver, Tight End, Kicker, three (3) Offensive Flex (any combination of RBs, WRs and TEs) and three (3) Defensive Flex (any combination of Defensive Linemen, Linebackers and Defensive Backs) players. You will not score any points for any roster left unfilled.

For more information you can refer to here or here and that should cover about everything.:)

By the way, if we don't have a significant number of people join by the end of the night I'm going to ask other people to join the league. So far we have a total of 4, including myself, people in the league. We still have 6 open slots left for other people to join, and at this rate it doesn't look like we are going to fill up all 10 slots.

I'm going to sign up tonight - I just can't do it from work.

Welcome aboard GC. so now we have a total of 5 people. 5 slots remaining, and i asked other peole to join the league. but i don't think any of them are going to join. so if you haven't joined yet please do so now because there are only two days left until the draft begins.

*bump*

ok we only have one day left before the draft begins and we still have 5 open slots. come on people; come join the league!:)

well, it looks like nobody else is going to be joining this league. i recommend that you remove yourself from the league. having five people is not going to be interesting at all. so i removed myself from the league. sorry to everybody.:)
