no sorry, i misunderstood, i am going to keep it to this season because it could be really hard to keep up with if it was all players ever.

I dunno, i guess we could open it up. What does everyone think about that?

Last time i had 14 guys in the draft and tournament and a couple of the guys went inactive (which really screwed up the tournament) and others dropped for whatever reason. So to make sure that doesnt happen again i want to make sure the draft is a little quicker. 24 hours to make a selection and i want everyone to know that upfront.

With dyhard helping me that way it will be easier to monitor that, and it wouldnt be a bad idea to have another guy monitor it as well.

Yeah I am in.

I'm not going to participate in this tourney, but I do have some advice for how to improve it.

1) Make it so that the teams are playing against each other, instead of merely having Throwdowns that end with the salvo "I win 3-2-1". Stemming from this, instead of making the first argument List First, put the explanations in the comments section.

2) Have three bench guys instead of just one.

3) Emphasize debating offense and defence.

4) Have a more cohesive bracket, with a guarantee from every participant that they will COMMIT to the tourney.

I'm very sorry for my exit from the first tourney, but I really hope that this one goes off without a hitch. Good luck!

me if theres enough room

I'm in. Put me down please.

Joe i'm in for sure. If this was season like it is now I think my team would have won. Especially if we were going by fantasy value. At one point during my first arguement I had all 6 players in the top 22 in fantasy scoring.

But instead of 3 bench players like Redwing said something I wanted to mention last time but just never did was 2 bench players a big and a guard. Just because when it came time to compare bench players I was comparing Mike Bibby to Shawn Marion. Both are complete different players.

Yes we need everyone to commit to the tourney once we start that draft and make sure to treat the throwdowns as teams going against each other.

Yeah i will add the explanations to the comments. We can just make a generic one that people can copy and past and place in their 1st comment of the td's

Yeah i want to increase the bench but I dont know if 3 will be it, Anyone else have any suggestions?

i am in for sure but 2 questions. when does it start? and do we use the same teams as last time?
