Okay, good luck everyone. There are 9 owners still waiting their Main Event Online draft spots and Tom and I will get those out in the next day or two. We know we'll get it done, but a few owners just need a little more time. Also, if you are interested in an open spot, contact me at [email protected] and we'll give you the latest update here. We still have some Second Weekend NFBC XII and Main Event spots open too, so there's still time to win compete for these $100,000 and $50,000 grand prizes. Come and join us.

Thanks all. If we missed anyone, let us know ASAP!!! Hopefully everyone is present and accounted for. Thanks all and just remember...one week from now, all of you will be drafting for a shot at our 10th annual $100,000 grand prize. How cool is that? Good luck in your preparation everyone and we'll see most of you in 7 short days.

Wait. I thought I was going to Vegas to escape the wrath of Jupinka?

The March 24 Diamond was the first live league to fill in 2013, kinda seems like those spots could be pulled today!

You must have missed all of the rhetoric about folks wanting more time to set their KDS preferences for these high-dollar leagues. Now everyone in the Main Events has a chance to reset their KDS preferences for the Diamond League. We'll pull draft spots late tomorrow morning and announce draft spots early afternoon. Same the next day for the March 24th Diamond.

Don't thank or blame neither Tom nor I anymore. We have this set up now so that NO HUMAN HANDS touch any of this anymore. Blame the computer that randomly picks all of this, not us two goofy humans.

Yes, but these so-called "computers" are programmed by human hands, are they not? I will be filing my protest with the league office shortly...mainly for having to draft next to RT and Ante, and not being close enough to Jupinka to harass/copy off of him for the XII.

If there was a vote, I think the rhetoric would've been blown out of the water.

It's nice of you to pay that all that money just be to the undercard.

No undercard. The featured event always comes after the opening acts.
