I've set the draft starts in both leagues to 10-15pm BST today so tonight's games will have ended. So about 8 hrs and 15 mins to go.
6 hrs a pick to start with but you can leave a pick or 2 in the queue if you're not around, will speed it up.

Great work NL. Push it asap so we can finish before 19th. League Setup->Draft->* Draft Date; Draft Time:. But you probably have Eastern Time set so take note of * Draft Time:. Set 9AM ET and we are good to go. We look gtg after the Chelsea game is over but there's something bugging me, "Fanalize Draft Order", I can't find it in commish area and it maybe needed but I dunno, the saving may have finalized it. Unsure.

I think we can start now. Just send email to all. I've PM'ed everyone with the details and draft lists, hopefully that's enough.

Just as I think we're close, a new realm of hell... Once you are done, or at some point before the draft starts, you must use the "Finalize Draft Order" function (in Commissioner --> All Options), if you have not already done so, to assign pick numbers to teams for each round (including traded draft picks if this league uses draft pick trading). Clicking the button will popup a confirm window which will give you more details. I will need advice on this because I can neither find it nor understand what it really means. When did this pop up ? I think this may an old message. I checked the draft tab of the commissioner options -> all looks good.
I checked the draft room settings - all good.
Just cross your fingers and go for it. Unfortunately, I won't be awake during the draft start time in case you need any help. But you got this, so I'm sure it's all good.
I will set autopick for my first pick to keep things going.

Can I join. Would like to join if it's free Hi,
It is free. But this is a draft league, so it's hard to enter mid season, unless someone drops out.
but that brings back an interesting thought.
Netley Lucas - we may want to think about a (parallel) mid season draft that starts after the Jan transfer window if people are interested? Someone brought this up in the off season.

Apologies on behalf of the forum and welcome! I'm sorry there are no mid-season games but tbh the forum has not had many new joiners since the autumn.

This is not OK, and not how we treat new members. 50 posts in a few days and PM's to join leagues mid-season? You may not like my views but this is not the behaviour of an enthusiastic newbie.

Maybe a Welcome (to YFF) Thread would be a good idea? I've seen it before on other sites and it's an opportunity for new members to see what's here and how to join games. The current method, implosion, does not seem to work. Just an idea like, for those who run this place.
