This is only my second year around here and a bit surprised to see #17 leagues already. I know there is no way of knowing exactly, but when should they dry up and come to an end? I desperately want in but I wanna wait till at least late Feb. but I'm tempted to jump on board now so I can guarantee myself a league. Greg, would it be possible to have a signup for $150 Slow Draft #18 that has a start/draft date on March 10th or a date close to that?

I'd be surprised if they dried up completely. I would guess they'll still be filling in late Feb/early March.

ONLY 11 SPOTS LEFT NOW!! I like the fact that so many new players are joining these Slow Drafts. Hopefully it's a sign to come for the live events as well. Thanks all. Here's the current signup list:

Last year we filled up 13 Slow Draft leagues after Feb. 16th. I know those numbers because we didn't have any new Slow Drafts between Jan. 4th and Feb. 16th as we negotiated the buyout of the NFBC assets. So I don't think these will dry up this year just because folks have done a few of these already. Just keep watching the signup lists throughout February and jump in when the time is right. We will definitely keep signups going through the first week in March and then we'll re-evaluate the situation. You have time to compete yet, so don't worry about jumping in now.

If it helps, maybe I will start a thread with signups that includes a league that starts say, Feb. 20th or Feb. 27th. I could do that if demand is there for that.

NOW ONLY 9 SPOTS LEFT!! Let's keep 'em coming and get this league drafting by late this week. Thanks all.

Whats the avg length of these drafts so far Greg? Anyone? I have a vacation planned in very late February. I'll jump in this one if the thought is it should be done (or down to a couple rounds I don't mind auto picking but wont have any internet access)

Greg, I'm in for another $150....sign me up please.

WOW, a lot of signups for the $150 Slow Draft League came in after I turned the lights out for some beauty sleep last night. I just took the official signups in the order they came in and now we have A FULL LEAGUE!! Please set your KDS preferences by tonight and we'll pick the draft spots. We'll likely set this league up to start at 5 pm ET on Thursday. Thanks all. Here's the lineup card and if I missed anyone please realize that we already have a start for NFBC $150 Slow Draft #18 and could easily fill that one up in time to be drafting this weekend. Thanks all.
