Confusing. Sign me up for Max's league. And if there is another 1000 league that would start when full, sign me up too for this one.

Thanks

Hi Tom. To me, it sounds like we should just form 2 leagues here.
IDEA…
1. 4th Annual Max's 1000 SLOW League runs as always. Last years owners have until December 16th at 8:00am EST to secure their spot. League always starts the Monday Pitchers and Catchers report to Spring training in Mid-February.
2014 - MAX'S 1000 SLOW SIGNUP LIST
1. Max Ogden - Founder / Commissioner - 4th Year
2. Mike Massotto - (2011 CHAMP) - 4th Year
3. Gaetan Lavoie - Bench Commissioner - 4th Year
4. Matt Anderson - (2013 CHAMP) - 4th Year
5. Greg Doyle & Barry Ercoles - 4th Year
6. Marc Perlmutter - 4th Year
7. Jon Stadtmueller - 2nd Year
8. Patrick Gallagher - Rookie (SPOT VACATED BY GLENN LOWY)
9. KJ Duke - Rookie (SPOT VACATED BY RALFH EHRMAN)
10. OPEN SPOT (SPOT VACATED BY DAVE BORYSIAK)
11. spot being held for ANDREW ROBINSON
12. spot being held for BRUCE BEVACQUA
13. spot being held for JIM CHRISTIE
14. spot being held for DAVE POTTS
15. spot being held for KRIS CARROLL

2. We start a Second 1000 SLOW DRAFT League. League could start on or after Mon. December 30th. This would give us 3 weeks to fill it and guys I have talked to don't want to start a 1000 SLOW that will go during Christmas or start too early in the off season. If it starts then, I will even join it. Thoughts?

Guys, right now this is just one league and it will be Max's league that we've had every year. Again, I need to hear from our tech guys about how we can set this up. So bear with us as we get all that taken care of.

If we can get two leagues that'll be great. But for now let's consider this one league and let us figure out how to properly set it up. Thanks. :)

Should Jeffrey Cook, Little Valley, New York be added to my league? We do have 1 confirmed spot open now? Thanks

I realize this is a little confusing but like Greg said we wanted to get this league on registration at the start so we wouldn't have to add it later. Please just hang with us a bit so we can figure out how to get all this done and set up. The good news is Max's league won't draft until February so we have plenty of time to figure everything out. :)

After you figure it out, lets start a signup for a 2nd 1000 SLOW League. Gaetan and I will head it up if we can start late December! Thanks

Sounds great. Let's fill up this league first and we'll definitely look to get a second one going. :)

Tom, I would like to sign up for a 1000 slow that starts when filled - it makes no sense to fill up one for February, and then after fill one for December. I might want to be in Max's too, but I don't know at this point if my schedule will allow it. So take me off the Feb draft and put me on a 1000 draft that starts when filled - I think at least several others wanted to draft now rather than later too. Please create separate lists for these.

KJ, at this point the one that is guaranteed to fill up will be Max's league. We don't have separate leagues at this time since most of the signups are for Max's league right now and that is the one that will definitely sell out. I'll delete your entry so you're not put in that league. Once that league is sold out and we get it set up we'll start taking signups for a $1,000 league that will start as soon as it sells out like the other DC contests. Since you don't want to be in Max's league I'll delete your entry for that one.

I should add that right now we don't have any way to separate $1,000 DC signups into two separate leagues. That's one of the things I'm waiting for the tech team to tell me. If we can do that, it will then be much easier to have separate lists. But for now, this is the signup list for Max's league in February.

Here's the revised plan for this league. We're just going to track the signups here. No one who wants to take part in this league needs to sign up at this time. We'll just keep the list of those who want to take part and then when we finalize the draft day we'll get the league set up. Thanks everyone for your patience.

Sounds perfect, thats what we did last year. We currently have 2 openings for anybody who wants to join the league and I am just waiting to hear back from 3 other owners from last year. We should fill up in the next week or so IMHO. :D
Thanks Tom.

Yes, let's start the signup list right here for the next $1,000 Slow Draft that will start as soon as it fills. Don't sign up online, but contact me at [email protected] or post your intentions here. If we do get to 15 owners we'll run this one in December or whenever it sells out. Who wants to play for an $8,000 league prize and a shot at the $20,000 grand prize. KJ is first to sign up. Let's do it.
