I also vote for a Feb. 17th start. KDS whenever, Jan.14 is fine.

I vote for Feb. 17 Draft Start Date.

I would prefer a later KDS deadline like a week before draft. Maybe use Feb. 10 as the KDS deadline. I don't see any reason to do KDS a month before the draft, but since I am a rookie I will defer to Max and the majority. Neither is a dealbreaker for me. Looking forward to it.

I am fine with whatever day we start; I would like an early KDS deadline and knowing draft position.

I am going to contact Greg and Tom right now to let them know that everyone has voted and told me that they want to start this draft by this coming Friday. Stay tuned! :lol: :lol: :lol:

I think its cute that you guys actually thought your vote and input counted, when in fact I run this league like a 3rd World Dictator :lol:

Now if I could only force my way into the money somehow :?

Is this still the plan? How can we do KDS when the league hasn't been created?

You can set KDS on your team page. I'll run KDS tomorrow and set the league up at that time. But KDS is available on everyone's team pages now. If you're having trouble finding it please email me at [email protected].

I will need a time to start the draft on the 17th. Let me know what time you want so I can do all that tomorrow. Thanks.

I'm going to set up this league to start on Noon ET on Feb. 17. We can change the time later but this will help me set the league up so KDS can be run.

15… interesting, considering that MtM is at 14 and I will have to listen to his non-stop chatter the entire draft! :shock:

Nice work getting into MTM's head already Max. He's lost if not in the 15-hole. Well, more lost than usual that is. :D

I am guessing a lot of my picks will be made from work during the day (with some travel), and will be using an iPhone/iPad for a few picks I imagine. As a general question ... any issues drafting via Safari? Or is there a preference for other browsers, I.e Dolphin, VanillaSurf, Axis, etc.? Any insight would be appreciated on the technology front.
