Jason Magoon/Bronski want to confirm that they are still in this league despite their lack of response. Apparently I've become their secretary to handle their correspondence and registration issues. For whatever reason they are unable to post to the MB's and, because I'm currently in a draft with them, asked me to relay the message that they are definitely in and confirmed for this league. Please add them to the list as in as a returning owner. Thanks.

Yes, Jason and his buddy contacted me as well to get signed up for this one. Let me double check with Tom on how we filled this league before and ran KDS early. Do we need to run KDS early like we've done in the past or are you guys okay to do that the day before like all of the other DC leagues? We can figure that out now.

Let me get through this snowstorm and then post some answers. Thanks all.

Am I missing anyone from last season? I can email again, but here's what we have:

1. Max Ogden
2. Marc Perlmutter
3. Mike Massotto
4. Greg Doyle/Barry Ercoles
5. Jim Jeckewicz
6. Matt Anderson
7. Jon Stadtmueller
8. Christopher Cosley
9. Michael DeCavalcante
10. Ralph Dimeo
11. Patrick Gallagher
12. Gaetan Lavoie
13. Charlie Licari
14. Jason Magoon
Andy Robinson (1st alternate if anyone doesn't return)
Thomas Warner (2nd alternate if anyone doesn't return)
Dave Smith (would be interested in another $1,000 DC)

Okay, I'm going to start signing the first 14 owners up. It looks like everyone is good to go. I think we have one opening for a new owner and will check with Andy on that one.

Tom said you guys can pick whatever date you want for KDS deadline. Max or someone else, state that date and we'll run accordingly. All is good. Thanks again guys for this great private league that is part of the overall DC contest.

Let's run it 1 week prior to the start of the draft! This will give us all plenty of time to think :D

Okay, the first 14 owners are signed up for this $1,000 NFBC Draft Champions League. There are three owners from last season who didn't return, so I'll reach out to the two alternates we have on this list to see if they want the final spot. We should be good to go on the 22nd.

KDS DEADLINE is Monday, Feb. 15th at 8 am ET. We will set this league up on Monday morning and run KDS. That will give you a full week to enjoy and plan from your draft spot. Good luck all and enjoy.

What is the status with the KDS here? If this is running tomorrow, I've not been assigned to the league yet.

The link for this league is on your team page Michael. Just set your KDS preferences there and we'll run the KDS tomorrow. Tom won't create the league until we're done with that and it will start next Monday. Sound good?

So everyone set your KDS preferences on your team page before tomorrow morning. Thanks.

OK. Typically the league is created before(?) KDS which is why I was confused.

Correct. But this is a unique league in which you guys wanted KDS a week in advance. These DCs are set up to automatically start the day after the league is formed, so we had to finagle the system a little to accommodate our buddy Max's league!! 8-) We'll double check everyone's KDS tomorrow as well before running to make sure everyone got the memo. Thanks and good luck.

I said we were going to double check everyone's KDS to make sure everyone got the memo. It's not automated to run KDS at 8:00; that was the deadline we gave everyone. Let's see if everyone has set their KDS.

I've emailed the 6 owners who did not change their KDS yet and given them until 1 pm ET to change their KDS. We'll run the draft order after that. Thanks all.
