We have 9 so far. I’m new to keeper so if we can get 3 more players (unless you guys want to roll with 10 we need 1 more) and we all have patience on fine tuning the league over the first couple of seasons, I’m happy to set it up. We would have to draft next week and my requirement as a commissioner is that everyone pays up PRIOR to the draft. Thoughts?

I'm in, I would vote to try and get to 12 players. 10 team leagues are kind of lame, but I would participate either way. Would we be able to keep it on yahoo so both leagues are on the same platform and easer to manage?

So far:
Odel Gmen0820 3Days Kase1 SG88 TEM BlueBuddha PSU1 I have a new person who just joined the board and is commissioner in another league I’m in who wants in
How do we find 3 more? Post on Talk About Giants Page? I’m guessing Not everyone visits the Fantasy page?
What do you guys want to commit in year one as the buy-in?
Can we all commit to drafting on Tuesday or Wednesday evening?

I'm in of course, I'm open to any draft after 5pm EST if it is during the week and I think that 40-50 buy in would be OK with me.

I am good with everything discussed. I am in the Central timezone but good everyday next week after 4PM EST. I agree to collect the funds before the start of the draft once people start losing they can be hard to get in touch with.
As stated the following needs to be decided: 1. Buy in amount 2. Zelle/ email or number or where tosend payments to . best to privTate message this to league members. 2. Draft date.
No rush on these but nice to know : 1. How many bench players are there? 2. Also how do the keeper rules work ? I been in a bunch of keeper leagues all with different rules that is why I am asking. Excited to be in a league with you all.

I’m recruiting on some FaceBook Giant groups. Have two more interested in joining. Working on helping them get set up on ProBoards now. I’m confident we can fill the other three slots.

I want to keep things simple for this 1st year given the little lead time we have and the fact that I haven’t done keeper before. I’ll use this season to learn and we can amp it up each year if we want to.
I’m thinking we start at $50 for this year? Next season I can set up a League Safe account if we want to go that route. For now I’ll just manage it myself if you guys trust me to do so. I am co commissioner for the other league on ProBoards. I’ll share my Venmo and PayPal. I believe Yahoo fantasy also offers a payment option, so I’ll look into that.
I’m thinking we go with basic 1 point PPR settings this year, but I’m certainly open to input from you guys. For instance, I’m thinking 5 or 6 keepers with no tie to round taken or loss of next years draft slots. We can add complexity going into year 2 if we want to. The other MB league voted to eliminate the TE slot and add another flex instead…I’m open to whatever the majority wants to do on things like this. Thinking about using standard settings this 1st year such as 6 bench and two IR slots.
Once we find the other 3 team owners, I’ll set up a league, send invites and share settings so we can discuss m, if necessary, and make any adjustments we want to make.
Stay tuned…

Odell, you willing to serve as co-commissioner? I’ll do most of the work just like to have three of us so when decisions need to be made it’s not just me.

Does Wednesday at 7pm EST work for everyone? Tuesday would be better for me because I have an in person meeting with a Revenue Agent on behalf of a taxpayer on Wednesday in Orange County (Tustin CA) that could take literally all afternoon. Sorry for the inconvenience.

I’m fine with Tuesday how about everyone else?
The big question is do we launch this new keeper league if we only have 10? We have 9 now, I’m recruiting to find 3 more.

Im down and excited to learn and play this format for the first time. Unfortunately I cannot draft after 3pm during the weekdays and I'll be stuck in a place with shitty WIFI all night. BUT I am off all day Thursday and I can submit my league dues that day as well up to $100...I know that's cutting it close, sorry.
Free all day til 3pm & off Thursday

First time using IR slots also.

For what it’s worth, I’d recommend against 5 keepers. I would say 2 maximum. Chances are you’re gonna have people turnover year to year, and it’s probably gonna be the lousy team, and it’ll be impossible to find someone to buy their team.
I had it as two keepers back in the day, and you could only “keep” a player one time, and then throw him back in the following year. I’m good to draft any day if we can shoot for 7 pm. What platform are you guys using?

What designates a player to be put on IR? Is it based on yahoo labels or some other source? How long can you keep someone on IR? Can suspended players be put on IR?
