bz2275 is a true newbie joining whatif on 3/22/16 and currently playing in only 1 other league . Could not find his signup for this league on the league 2 thread. this could be a long wait.

Amerk, when I signed up I volunteered to take the last spot in the draft since, being in Japan, that's the only way I could pick within my time slot. If that's not possible then you'll have to find someone else.

mac195 - just sent you a sm. I have no problem switching draft positions since I have the last spot in the draft.

You can have my spot then, ausfan. Much appreciated.

This is amerk's show, but it might be prudent to search around for an alternate. Knowing this crew, folks aren't going to sit around for another entire day...

Personally I'm in no rush to pick but I am worried about a potential newbie being run over by veterans in a league like this. Might be better off finding someone else for his own sake

I'm a veteran and both my teams got run over in the previous league!

I'm happy to sitemail the guys who didn't sign up from the last league. That said, I bet it won't be hard to find a taker on the message board to sign up and draft the Babe...

Bz2275 e-mailed me DURING season one of the DEAL asking to get in the next one. I saved his sitemail and replied to him recently to let him know we were starting soon. I had two drafts to run so I don't know if he opened that.

I got a SM today from a new guy who wants in this league, so we DO have hackup. I'll give him til tonight at midnight and then I'm SMing the new guy.

I'm a newbie, if you want I can take the Babe :)

Your call, but I vote that we pull the trigger now.

I agree with kyleb63.

Ditto

I've sent two sitemails. He hasn't opened them.

OK, its time we do something. I hate to bail on the guy (Bz) without giving him every chance since he indicated his interest to me so long ago. I am going to pick for him and if he shows up in a couple days, he can take his team back if he promises we can count on him drafting each day. If he doesn't show soon (by his next pick), I will offer his spot to the new guy who SM'd me today. The rest of the order stays the same.

In the Bz2275 spot, he takes
