Last year ADP information for the NFBC leagues was

sent out. I found that very helpful in preparing

for the draft. Is that information being provided

again?

Thanks. Yes, they are on MDC.com again. Yes, if you sign up early enough for any NFBC Satellite League, you will be given FOUR e-mail sends from MDC.com with ADPs from our pay leagues. Welcome back and good luck.

What service are you using this year for the auctions? We'll have to see. FantasyAuctioneer is being sold. We'll have to see what's out there. [/QUOTE]Any update on auction website?

Not yet. We're still looking into this. We have some time but we do want to find out where we'll be hosting our March auctions.

Is the 5pm est $250 satellite on Sat March 14th all filled up?? On the first page of this thread, there are 15 people already in the league but when I went to register for another satellite, there was still an option to sign up for the March 14 satellite.

thanks

Rich Usually what will happen is when they get the 16th sign-up for a particular date/time they will start working on filling up another draft for that same date/time. They are not restricted to only (1) draft at a time. They look like they have done this with the March 14th $125 (started a second draft).

We're not going to shut down any leagues except the two auction leagues if they fill up now. The reason we'll shut down the auctions is because they have been so historically difficult to run so just having one or two could be extremely difficult. But for the draft leagues, we'll keep all of those open and if we can fill up more than one $125 or $250 etc. league on a given night we'll do that.

So if you see a league with 15 signups you can still sign up for that league if you want because we could fill up more than one of those leagues on a given night.

Any plans on adding a fri or sat $125 WTA league?

Mike Michael, that league has filled up and I'm closing it out. Do you want to move to another league? Let me know.

Tom--

An emergency has come up at work and I have to work overnight on March 4. Any chance I could drop out of that league and replace it with another one later in the season? Maybe Michael (see above wants the spot. Sorry about this.

Mike We have 13 spots open for the March 4th $125 winner take all league but I'm not very confident that's going to fill up.

bmike · Post by **bmike** » Tue Feb 24, 2009 4:10 am

Could you put me on that one if you think it may fill?

Tom,

We were looking to get the NL only and AL only leagues on this thread. greg told us to pick a date first. Both are $125 leagues - here is what we have...

NL only Wednesday, March 11 7pm ET

AL only Thursday, March 12 7PM ET

If you guys are still good with this, can you please add and add me to each? We have some other owners who are also signing up and these should fill up pretty quickly.

Thank you,

Mike

I've edited the first post in the thread to include the dates and times Mike.

Tom Kessenich · Post by **Tom Kessenich** » Thu Feb 26, 2009 3:53 am

Any interest in the March 12th $500 league Bobby? We have seven signups so we'd have some work to do. Let me know if that's an option.
