Is anybody interested in signing up for another IBN Fantasy League? I certainly am. Anybody else? Should I set up a league for us?

OK, I created the league. Anybody is welcome to join.- Sign into the Yahoo! Fantasy NBA page
- Then click on "Sign Up Now" and then "Join League" (or maybe "Join League")
- Click "Join Custom"
- League ID #: 121825 League Password: InterBasket
- Then continue to follow the steps to create your team
The Draft
Since it'll be hard to get people from all sides of the ocean together for a "live" draft, we'll have an automatic draft. Select the players you prefer to have drafted first (or just leave the defaults like me). Once we have enough people signed up, we'll hold the draft.
First Come, First Serve
The first 12 people to join will be in the league. If any more people want to sign up, we can create another league.
Rules
We'll use the basic "rotisserie" rules, which are standard in the Yahoo! Public Leagues
Prizes
The past two times we did a Fantasy League, I promised prizes to the winners and never sent them. If I have some extra dollars at the end of the season, I'll do it (and send out the past winning prizes if I remember who won)."I really like the attitudes of eagles. They never give up.

OK, we've got a couple of people signed up already! Hopefully a few more will join in the next few days.
I'm the Dayton Dinosaurs."I really like the attitudes of eagles. They never give up. When they grab a fish or something else, they never let it go. It doesn't matter.

Yeah baby! My roster:
PG: Kirk Hinrich, Juan Carlos Navarro
SG: Vince Carter, Anthony Parker, Manu Ginobili
SF: Andrei Kirilenko, Lamar Odom, Hedo Turkoglu
PF: Luis Scola, Dirk Nowtzki, Darko Milicic
C: Tim Duncan, Andris Biedrins
I don't know how the system works, nor why i got so many good players, anyone willing to explain the rules?
But it should be fun.

Blair can you post the names of the team owners here?
So we can negotiate the trades directly here...

Could you guys post your names so we know who is playing? Also, be sure to check your teams for trade proposals!

That's a pretty good frontline. Are you starting Scola over Dirk?Originally posted by ArkadiosV2
Man, you're stacked with international players!
Here are a few rules, cut and pasted:I don't know how the system works, nor why i got so many good players, anyone willing to explain the rules?
Basically, you just click-and-drag your players on the roster to create a line-up for each night, depending on who is playing. But you can only put a player in any spot (PF, SF, F, PG, etc) 82 times during the season.Your goal is to get the best lineup on the floor every day, since the better your players perform in real-life games, the more value they bring to your fantasy team.
In a Rotisserie League, fantasy teams are ranked from first to last in each of several statistical categories. Points are then awarded according to the order of finish in each category and are totaled to determine an overall score and place.
So, if you're in a 12-team league, the team with the most goals scored receives 12 points, the team with the second most receives 11 points, and so on. In the case of a tie, each team involved receives an average of the total points due. So, in the above example, if two teams were tied for first in assists, each would receive 11.5 points [(12 + 11) / 2 = 11.5].
In this league, each position on your roster can accumulate a maximum of 82 games worth of stats. When any roster position (the sum of all players used in that position) reaches the 82-game plateau, stats are no longer accumulated at that position."I really like the attitudes of eagles.

If you aren't clear on how to play, just try clicking around and you'll figure it out!
My first trade proposal to Le Mans United:
I'll give you Kevin Garnett and Carlos Boozer for LeBron James and Yao Ming
My second trade proposal to Arkadios:
I'll give you Caron Butler and Nene for AK47"I really like the attitudes of eagles. They never give up. When they grab a fish or something else, they never let it go. It doesn't matter.
