FireDigger Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 Hi guys, For the last couple of years, I've been running a cigar league with several guys from the cA forum. As you know, the cA forum is pretty dead these days, so I'm changing the league name and moving it over here! We are looking for a few more players. If interested, please send me your email address (either post in the thread or PM me) so I can send you an invite to the league. Here are some rules and info about the league: *Willing to put up 5 CCs (or $40 if you don't have CCs). Top 3 will get cigars (usually a 12-14 team league with 8 making the playoff). Last year we had 12 teams so first place got five packages, second place got three, and third place received one. *Please have at least 50 posts and 3 months on the forum to join. *Be able to make the draft (currently March 28, 8:30pm CST, but could change), stay involved (this is a daily league) even if you're seemingly out of it throughout the year (April - September). Here are the settings for the league: League ID#: 39165 League Name: 2015 FOH Fumadors Season Type: Full Draft Type: Live Standard Draft Draft Time: Sat Mar 28 8:30pm CDT Live Draft Pick Time: 1 Minute, 30 Seconds Max Teams: 12 Scoring Type: Head-to-Head Player Universe: All baseball New Players Become Available: As soon as Yahoo adds them View List of Forced Players Max Acquisitions for Entire Season: No maximum Max Trades for Entire Season: No maximum Trade Reject Time: 2 Trade End Date: August 16, 2015 Allow Draft Pick Trades: No Waiver Time: 2 days Waiver Type: Continual rolling list Waiver Mode: Standard Can't Cut List Provider: None Trade Review: League Votes Post Draft Players: Free Agents Max Acquisitions per Week: 10 Min Innings Pitched: 40 Weekly Deadline: Daily - Tomorrow Start Scoring on: Week 1 Playoffs: Week 22, 23 and 24 (8 teams) Note: Week 24 runs 7 days from Sep 21 to Sep 27 Playoff Reseeding: No Lock Eliminated Teams: Yes Divisions: No Make League Publicly Viewable: Yes Roster Positions: C, 1B, 2B, 3B, SS, OF, OF, OF, Util, SP, SP, SP, RP, RP, P, P, P, BN, BN, BN, BN, BN, BN, DL Batters Stat Categories: Runs ®, Home Runs (HR), Runs Batted In (RBI), Stolen Bases (SB), On-base Percentage (OBP), Slugging Percentage (SLG) Pitchers Stat Categories: Saves (SV), Strikeouts (K), Holds (HLD), Earned Run Average (ERA), (Walks + Hits)/ Innings Pitched (WHIP), Quality Starts (QS) Here are the members who have joined so far and spots available: 1.

zrotfus Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 Hey, being quite new here I realize I don't meet the # of posts or 3 month presence to join but just wanted to throw my hat in there in case it comes down to it and you needed another body to fill up the league. I love fantasy baseball and would be glad to pay up front right away if necessary!
FireDigger Posted February 17, 2015 Author Posted February 17, 2015 zrotfus, thanks for your interest! It's really silly to have a rule like this to be honest, but I have it in place from my experience of running the league. Fantasy baseball is a six month marathon. Before, we had guys new to the forum join, then quit playing a month into the season since their team was not doing well. And when it comes time to send cigars, they were no where to be found. I don't assume you are one of them. In fact, looks like you are someone who is looking to sticking around on FOH. If we need an extra occasional badass for the league, I'll definitely let you know. Here is an updated roster for the league: 1. Boknows (That's me) 2. Worst to Second 3. Shlomo 4. khenry0105 5. The Whole F'N Show 6. Royal w/Cheese 7. Beast Mode (pending) 8. Dr. Wu (pending) 9. jdouglas 10. Guisepino 11. (open) 12. (open) 13. (If enough interest) 14. (If enough interest)
zrotfus Posted February 17, 2015 Posted February 17, 2015 Hey I completely understand! I've commish'd a few leagues in the past and even with close friends I've sometimes had to get nasty in making sure dues are paid up. I'll be here on standby.
Notsocleaver Posted February 17, 2015 Posted February 17, 2015 Likewise, I haven't been around on this forum for long either but I love fantasy baseball, and I'd be willing to front the 5er (or $) to you if it makes any difference.
FireDigger Posted February 18, 2015 Author Posted February 18, 2015 Seeing we only need two more to make 12, forget about the post count rule! Send me your emails zrotfus and Notsocleaver.
FireDigger Posted February 19, 2015 Author Posted February 19, 2015 Notsocleaver and zrotfus just joined the party, thanks guys! We are at 12 (two are still pending but they both have been playing for many years so I hope they aren't going anywhere), but I wouldn't mind if we go for 14. Let's see if there are any more interests. 1. Boknows (That's me) 2. Worst to Second 3. Shlomo 4. khenry0105 5. The Whole F'N Show 6. Royal w/Cheese 7. Beast Mode (pending) 8. Dr. Wu (pending) 9. jdouglas 10. Guisepino 11. zrotfus 12. Notsocleaver 13. (If enough interest) 14. (If enough interest)
FireDigger Posted March 2, 2015 Author Posted March 2, 2015 Spring training has started! Do we have any more interested in fantasy baseball?
Charley Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 I don't quite have the post count but I'll play if you'll have me. 1
FireDigger Posted March 6, 2015 Author Posted March 6, 2015 Awesome, we have 12! However, we have potentially a 13th, which means we need just one more. Please PM me if you are interested. So far, we have a few who did not meet the post count criteria, but they paid up front, so that's an option if the description fits your situation. Thanks for looking! 1. Boknows (That's me) 2. Worst to Second 3. Shlomo 4. khenry0105 5. The Whole F'N Show 6. Royal w/Cheese 7. Beast Mode 8. Dr. Wu 9. jdouglas 10. Guisepino 11. zrotfus 12. Notsocleaver 13. Charley (pending) 14. YOUR NAME HERE!!! 1
FireDigger Posted March 7, 2015 Author Posted March 7, 2015 One (or two) more players wanted! I'll give this one more week before closing registration. Thanks!
FireDigger Posted March 8, 2015 Author Posted March 8, 2015 We have 13 now officially! Looking for one more.
FireDigger Posted March 9, 2015 Author Posted March 9, 2015 Quite a loot for first prize! Currently, I'm leaning toward this payoff structure: 1st - Receives 6 packages (from places 9-14) 2nd - Receives 4 packages (from 5-8) 3rd - Receives 1 package (from 4) Updated roster: 1. Boknows (That's me) 2. Worst to Second 3. Shlomo 4. khenry0105 5. The Whole F'N Show 6. Royal w/Cheese 7. Beast Mode 8. Dr. Wu 9. jdouglas 10. Guisepino 11. zrotfus 12. Notsocleaver 13. Charley 14. YOUR NAME HERE!!! 1
cns187 Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 hmmm interested but the draft date doesn't work for me at the moment!!
FireDigger Posted March 10, 2015 Author Posted March 10, 2015 hmmm interested but the draft date doesn't work for me at the moment!! We'd love to have you if you could make the draft time work. I'm hesitant to change the draft time since I'm sure it would be hard to agree upon a new time for all 14 members. Please let me know. Thanks!
FireDigger Posted March 12, 2015 Author Posted March 12, 2015 Our league is all set! I started a separate thread in the "FOH Competition" sub-forum for posts throughout the season. Go here: http://www.friendsofhabanos.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=122148
