SOLD OUT: $375 Draft Champions Express On 2/22

Post by Greg Ambrosius » Wed Jan 30, 2013 8:35 am

We will start offering $150 Draft Champions Express Leagues on a regular basis going forward on Friday nights, but today I got a request to try for a $375 Draft Champions Express League as well. I kind of like the idea, and since we already have 9 full $375 leagues, I thought we'd give it a try right now.

I'm leaving some cushion to see if we can fill it up, so let's shoot for Friday, Feb. 22nd at 8 pm ET. That gives us plenty of time to fill this up and create a solid league of owners. Again, PLEASE DON'T SIGN UP FOR THIS ONLINE!! Just email your intentions to be in this league at [email protected] or leave a post on this thread saying you want to compete in this league. We'll then set it up once we have the league full. Thanks all.

Because these DC Expresses are getting more popular, we will be creating a special link on the signup page to better facilitate the signups. That should be done shortly and then we can sign up for these just like other leagues. But that isn't done yet. I'll let you know when it is done.

Okay, we have one name on the list already. Here we go: 50 rounds in 4+ hours at $375 per team. Who's in?

Since this league will likely fill today/tomorrow, will we be able to set our KDS and get draft positions ASAP or will we have to wait until the day of the draft (Friday) like the "regular" Draft Champions leagues? ... thanks ...
