    Just muck the loans and only allow those who pay up front into the pool. Still a few weeks to get the points. A lot of other members loan as well so just don't loan anyone points keyboarding. Problem solved.

    As it gets closer to hockey season we should get more people to show up. Hopefully.

    Those that need a loan can find one in the betpoints section.

    Updated list of potential members:

    mtltitans2 (Requires loan)
    OilyDave (Requires loan)
    Baxter Man13 (Requires loan)
    over5.5 (Requires loan)

    We have about 9 confirmed (more or less, depending on the league set up, which is pretty ordinary so that shouldn't be an issue). Either 1 of the guys who need a loan get the loan and join or 3 of you do, but we cannot have an odd number so one guy will get cut of the 4.

    League is created, you will get the information/password once you send the 100 points. Upon doing so you also agree to the draft time, so make sure it works for you before you send the points. We can change almost anything about the league but I have run many leagues in my time, so some decisions might look odd but I can explain them. The draft time is also up for discussion. Also, if we end up with more than 10 teams I will make the rosters smaller.

    30 moves for the whole year? I guess that's good for all the rookies who won't be too active. I've personally always liked 5 moves per week max for example. Also pretty heavily weighted towards forwards with 7 categories to 3 for the goalies. I think a 6-4 split would be better. SOG is pretty much a useless category. Just putting in my two cents as always I will still probably do it regardless.

    Hey Keyboarding,

    Im going to send you 40 points for now, does this work? I got a 30pt loan from someone so im currently paying him 6pts a day until im paid up. Will be paid up with him by day 8 or 9 and there are 14 days till the season starts. So I figure I can start sending you the remaining 60pts once I am done with him....

    I don't like the moves per week thing because it doesn't reward members who make smart moves and leaves player cycling as too easy of an option. 30 moves might be low, might do 35, though if we get 10+ teams there won't be anyone worth picking up.

    I agree. Once I saw SOG I was like "fukk that".

    I'm afraid unless you have all 100 points before the draft day you will not be eligible to join. I suggest paying your loan back and then asking for another one to cover the 100 points.

    There you go the categories look much better to me I understand that you can be cheap and add/drop 10 players a week to pull off wins which I agree is stupid. I guess 30 will be fine, I'm just used to being very active on the waiver wire

    We could do it before October 1st. Just need to run it by everyone. On Sunday we'll have a better idea of who is in, and then we'll decide the draft date. We could do it during the evening on a weekday. If it doesn't pan out I'll send the points back, no problem.

    Oh, and congratulations on getting married. I'll post up 25 of your points for the buy-in if you stick around. I know it ain't much but they say it's the thought that counts.

    We still haven't decided on a time. Everyone seems to have disappeared. If you send the points and can't make the draft, I will send them back.

    I told everyone to only send points if they agreed with the listed draft time, only watertight is an exception. Thing is I really don't want to do a draft if 80% of the league doesn't show up.
