I'm just waiting on 4 KDS listings to start $150 Slow Draft League 7. Either way, we'll get draft spots announced by noon CT today and this league rolling by tonight. Likely start time is 5 or 7 pm ET. Thanks all and let's get those KDS listings to me. I've emailed all of those owners involved.

We will keep on offering these throughout January and February and with the MLB season not starting until April 4th into March. The overall grand prize is based on 20 leagues, so obviously we'll grow the prize pool if we go further than that. We already have 8 full $150 leagues and 3 full $375 leagues and we're not even done with the NFL season. I would suspect that February could produce 20 Slow Drafts on its own, especially if we get the Round 1 Que feature done by then.

These are great prep for our players and as one owner accurately stated for more of our die-hard owners these have replaced mock drafting. The real ADPs are being generated here. Pretty amazing. We'll keep providing these as long as demand warrants and the overall prize pool will benefit as a result. Don't jump in thinking we're nearing a sellout because this is one contest where it makes sense to go beyond our goals.

Any word on the auto 1 rd only feature? Also, it would help if IT could figure out a way to have the chat log stay up even when we log out of the draft. Communication is key in those leagues but when someone says they are out for the night, etc. the message does not stay up for those who log in after that message, leaving many addicts staring at the unchanging draft room for hours.

Okay, sign up online if you can. But your spot is secure.

We have ONLY TWO SPOTS LEFT now for the next $150 Slow Draft. Caution: One owner is going anonymous, so drop out now, run and hide, or don't sign up knowing someone is the unknown drafter. But we have TWO SPOTS LEFT if you want to jump in and start drafting on Monday. Maybe we can set it up earlier, but let's see if we sell this out tonight first. Thanks all.

OKAY, ONE SPOT LEFT!!! I'm not staying up much longer, so first one officially signed up gets it. Set your KDS preferences right on your team page and I'll grab them there. KDS deadline is tomorrow. If everyone gets them set, then I can pick the draft order and maybe get this going over the weekend. But let's get everyone signed up first and KDS preferences set. Thanks all.

I thought you were only going to do 2? Do you want to stay in the next $375? Let me know, but this last spot is definitely yours. Now I can go to bed. Thanks DT.

Here's the signup list for this 8th $150 Slow Draft League. Please set your KDS preferences on your team page and I'll pick the draft spots tomorrow afternoon if everyone is set to go. Dave, sign up online and get your team set. Thanks all.

Done! I am having buyers remorse taking Pujols at #2 in the last $150 draft. I have never once owned him in 11 years and you know what that means - ha ha. Anyway, $375 one also is fine. I signed up online - hope I did it correctly. I will check to set the team and KDS. Thanks!
