witesoxfan Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 (edited) I created a Yahoo league just now...however, there is a twist to this. It is just like Survivor League, and basically the goal is to survive the season, survive getting cut, and winning in the end. Throughout the year, there are cuts at certain dates where teams are eliminated and their players are put on waivers, able to be claimed by all. There will be a HOST team, that will have 4 players, and there will be reward challenges throughout the year, where you can earn a player for your team, or for certain challenges, immunity to avoid being cut. It is pretty much based on the show Survivor, hence the name. There will be 16 teams in the league, plus the HOST team, making a grand total of 17 team total. It is a points league, so that is something to watch out for too. There is a little catch...you cannot use SP's. In fact, SP's values are very low, even if you get a pitcher who is both RP and SP eligible. The only spots for pitchers is RP, so saves and holds are both very valuable. The categories for hitters are R(1), 1B(1), 2B(2), 3B(3), HR(5), RBI(1), BB(1), IBB(1), K(-.5), GIDP(-2.5), and the categories for pitchers are W(2), L(-2), SV(8), H(-.5), ER(-1), HR(-1), K(1), GIDP(2.5), HLD(4) The positions are C, 1B, 2B, 3B, SS, IF, LF, CF, RF, OF, UTIL, RP, RP, with 3 bench spots and 1 DL slot. If you have any interest, just PM me for the details. EDIT: Should have mentioned the draft date and time. It is 3-19 at 9:30 PM, a Saturday night(and I know that may not work for some...if it doesn't work out for a lot, I can try and change it, but there will be no guarantees that I will get a good time for it) EDIT #2: I also need to mention that you have to give me access to your team, so I can drop your players if you are eliminated.

knightni Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 I'll give it a shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danman31 Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 If the draft is at 5:30 or 6:30 as opposed to 9:30, I'm in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witesoxfan Posted March 10, 2005 Author Share Posted March 10, 2005 Would the Friday before at 7:30 work? If not...I'll see if that time would work for others...and maybe look to see if I can switch the time slot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT: I just realized I'm likely to be out of town that weekend anyway. Don't mind me, but I'd still like to be in the league.

knightni Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 Weekends (Sat, Sun) are the only good days for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witesoxfan Posted March 11, 2005 Author Share Posted March 11, 2005 If it would help anyone...I could change the draft to Sat. April 2nd at 5:30 or :45 PM, 9:30 or :45 PM, or 10:00, :15, :30, :45 PM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knightni Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 What was wrong with the original Saturday? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witesoxfan Posted March 11, 2005 Author Share Posted March 11, 2005 Nothing's wrong with it really...I am basically just asking dan and then the rest of the league if that would work. It will stay next Saturday, the 19th for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witesoxfan Posted March 11, 2005 Author Share Posted March 11, 2005 Just so everyone knows, I will be out of town for today, Saturday, and probably part of Sunday too...so if you want in, either just wait until Sunday/Monday, or post that you want to be in it in here, and someone in the league can give you the info.

DBAHO Posted March 12, 2005 Share Posted March 12, 2005 Any chance of putting the draft back half an hour. I finish work at 2:30 p.m, and that's when the draft starts down here, so I'd miss the first 15-20 mins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witesoxfan Posted March 15, 2005 Author Share Posted March 15, 2005 *nicely bumps* need a lot of teams still And DBAH0, I can look to move it back, but there are no guarantees. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

witesoxfan Posted March 17, 2005 Author Share Posted March 17, 2005 I hate to bump this again...LOL...but we need teams quite badly. There are still like 8 openings left, and the draft is 2 days from now. Even if you can't make the draft, I would say to join...either prerank your players, or hope to get lucky. If you are even slightly interested in joining, but are confused about something or just need something cleared up, just get on AIM or PM me, and I can try to explain things in more detail. Thanks again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danman31 Posted March 18, 2005 Share Posted March 18, 2005 Just post the info here. Laziness has been a deterant from me PMing you earlier about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

witesoxfan Posted March 19, 2005 Author Share Posted March 19, 2005 I almost just want to let this die, because not enough people are joining... I'd like atleast 4 more teams to join...draft is tonight at 10 PM CT. If I don't have those 4 teams by roughly 9 PM tonight, I'll try and move the draft back a week. So please don't make me do that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
