    Default Cigarsmokers Fantasy Football 2015 - sign-up

    This is a continuation of the league from last year. All previous participants will be invited as soon as I set up a new Yahoo ID since the one I had is no longer good. I guess ya gotta use it more than a few weeks a year or they "recycle" your ID.

    This should be fun, shit slinging is expected if not required.

    The buy-in to participate will be a 5'er from your stash with a minimum value of $8/stick. Be sure to value your cigars appropriately....i.e. what you paid at the B/M is rarely what the cigars can be purchased for on-line due to taxes and other stuff. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to PM and I'll be happy to help you out. The cigars will be mailed to me no later than the 2nd week of the season. Failure to send your required entry fee by the deadline will be cause for removal from the league. Don't let this happen to you, remember, most things can be dealt with as long as there is communication.

    At the end of the playoffs, the cigars will be selected "draft - style" by the top 3 finishers. The number of selections available for each finishing position will be determined once we know how many players, and thus how many cigars, will be available. I'll take care of distributing the cigars at the end.

    There will be some changes to the rules this year, primarily surrounding players released to the waiver wire....there will be a delay before they can be picked up by any other team.
    We'll discuss this on the league board and come to an agreement that is acceptable to all, shouldn't be an issue.

    See last years thread here: http://www.cigarsmokers.com/threads/...n-up-and-rules

    To participate:
    1. Post in this thread
    2. Send a PM to me with your email address
    3. sign up when you receive the invite from Yahoo

    I'll play. I may need KingBeefy to spot me some high quality sticks. I mostly just have backwoods in the humi.

    Ok, been swamped lately. I got the league reactivated and sent invites to all the managers from last year.
    I'm not sure we'll be able to get this going this year, the season starts in a week, so we'll need to hustle getting the draft done.
    I need email addresses for those who weren't in the league last year to send the invite.

    Ok, looks like we have 5 teams....need at least 1 more.
    I've posted some Commish notes on the the league board.
    We'll make the rest of the decisions regarding the league, i.e. rules changes, over there.
    I'll update the first post of this thread as appropriate.

    I WILL be sending the first loser trophy to someone else this year!!
    You know who you are!

    Man am I glad I got my internet connection figured out and logged in to see this was actually going to happen! I'm about 8 hours ahead of you all, so best time for me to draft are late nights or early mornings your time. I'm fine with setting up autodraft though. I'm good with all of the proposed changes for this year, I just couldn't figure out how to post on the league page. Best of luck to you all, you're gonna need it!

    My pre draft is set if we go with the auto draft. Ready whenever.

    Anyone object to going all auto-draft?
    Set your draft preferences and your selections will be made according to your list and who is available.
    Draft position is randomly selected, no manipulation.
    IMHO, doing it this way will make the results more dependent on team/roster management throughout the season, and lead to a pretty competitive league.

    As far as the cigars go. How about we make the deadline to ship to me by the end of the 2nd week. Pay the top three positions, draft style like last year....I'll ship the prizes, each participant to send $2.50 to cover mailing costs of the prizes?

    $6/stick minimum value for prize sticks.
