ok, Let's go for Saturday 8 - 10 pm EDT.
We'll start rolling as soon as I get my act together. Please do set up your PMs to send you an email when you get a PM. Once I make a pick, I will send j-spoon a PM. She will send one to newkid, etc... Then wherever we get to by Sat night, we'll try to get thru 4 rounds in that 2 hours. Anybody can't make it, we'll try to work something out with a list.
I'll post a running list of the picks in the first post at the start of the thread.
Ready set here we go!

I'm getting excited/nervous. Much work to do in the next couple of days.
Myrtle, I can help with stats. I don't want to do it all the time, but I could regularly do Fri-Sun games, or Mon-Thurs games, or something like that.

Turns out our electricity is going to be off most of the day tomorrow, so we will go ahead and make our pick to get us started rolling:
After much debate, Miracles choose our sentimental favorite, the #1 pick in the 2017 fantasy draft is: Nnemkadi Ogwumike, F, LA
I'm pretty sure I know who the next five picks will be and you will all get great players.
good luck all!
j-spoon is on the proverbial clock. Please remember to PM the player behind you after you make your picks.

Lynx was hoping Maya would get to her, but no. Now will she take Big Syl, EDD, Tina, Parker or surprise us? |
I felt a little bad about that, but my next choice was EDD, and she makes me nervous. New team, new coach, Lyme disease, wedding distraction. Maya seemed safer.

Yeah we thought seriously about EDD too, but one year two of our top picks ended up missing a LOT of games and it really kills you in this game because of the limited backup supply when you IR someone. If she plays all 34 though, watch out!

Agree I was nervous about pulling the trigger on EDD as well. Now watch her be tops in scoring and drop 50 on Chicago when she goes back.

I like my draft position. Two picks in a row allow you totally understand, what direction you take with your team constructing.
BTW, can anybody please send me PM to check, do they work correctly and I have notification?
Upd. No, they don't work correctly and I don't have notification, although in settings i turn them on ))) But I hope to be online as much, as possible.
If you need some of my picks for trade - you, probably, should wait a little for the answers.

It might be interesting to watch this league as an observer.
Also, there's only like 3 sky players worth having

maybe the Admiral didn't get the rolling part starting today. We'll give him til tonight 8 pm PDT and if he doesn't show up by then he may just get assigned a player so we can get on with it.
