Oh and apparently my second place prize is still floating out there since I was not able to get it at SDCC. I can probably live without it but I love surprises so can you tell me what it was or post a pic? Thanks!

Invites have gone out for the both leagues through forum messaging. It's a unique link per invite so if you get some kind of error I may have copied it wrong.

I will work on settings and what not tomorrow. There was a general consensus last year to introduce some PPR, I'll probably do a fraction of a point. Otherwise the scoring and roster slots will be similar to last year. I've already got rid of multiple divisions within each league and am thinking we can once again have top 6 make the playoffs for a 3 week playoff period.

Feel free to chime in with suggestions or questions.
If possible, add the IR slot. It's nice to have if one of your players are missing a few weeks, but you don't have to worry about dropping him. You don't lose a slot by keeping that hurt player. Still say lose the TE slot, but that's not a big deal in my book. As for PPR, what you have now, 1 is fine. If you go lower, stopping at .4 is good. Oh, if the kicker misses a FG, since the kicking game was meh last year in the NFL (especially in the extra point department), it may be best if that penalty is off. Other than that, that's it.

Yeah, I somehow managed to mess it up. What I did was send all of the invites to my email, then I sent the links separately to everyone. Somehow, a few worked but the rest give that error. If you can message me an email address to use I can send the invite directly, otherwise I will gradually generate new links. I think that when I generate a new link it may invalidate some of the ones I previously sent so I'll drag it out I guess.

ESPN doesn't seem to have a generic invite url like yahoo did, at least not for this type of league.

It's here on my desk, if I go to SanFranCC I can take it to you there.

I'll send you a PM, Most of the original links I sent are not working. Unfortunately the invite system is built around email addresses, what I did to get the links was to enter my email address for all of the teams, but this rendered most of them invalid.  If anyone is ok sending me the email address they want to use through PM then I can send you a new invite directly. Otherwise what I have been doing is using several of my own addresses to make a new link, those have been working but I have to do it gradually since I can only do one invite per email.

Nothing yet. He will update, or rather, ask us which date is good.

I will send out a list of dates/times to each league (most liekly it will be an evening in the next 2 weekends) and try to see what works  the most people. Still waiting on some people to sign up, worst case I will assign the remaining teams to myself, autodraft them and then transfer them to the owners asap.

Also, it turns out we have one extra slot in case anyone is interested.

League settings are all done, I tried to keep them as similar as possible to previous years, but espn is more restrictive than yahoo in some areas so I had to settle for getting close. (I'll check them again before things start in case I made some mistakes.)  The main changes from last year are an the 0.5 PPR and an IR spot on the roster. Let me know if you have questions or suggestions. In previous year's the settings have worked pretty well, including some extremely close matchups.

Still waiting on some people to join up, the Otter league is mostly done there but we still have that one open spot for a team. The Badgers still need 3 folks to sign up I think.
