Sand League Draft Chit Chat 2012/13

Giddyup

The EPL Fantasy Twitter Page seems to be a good place for players added to FPL and I have found 7 players that have been added , which I will add to the Google Doc player list tonight. They are:

• Snodgrass (NOR) MID - 6.0
• Hoilet (QPR) MID- 6.5
• Boselli (WIG) MID - 5.5

I am not a fan of locking the player list, but if that is the done thing I will lock it the stroke of midnight GMT tonight (13 hrs from now). If there are any more player additions before then I will add them in too. If anyone does not want to use Google Docs for Player List, I will have excel and PDF versions I can email you.

With 2 Aussie's right behind me, whats the best time for me to make the 1st selection? Should I do it before we start tomorrow?

No hurry... it is 11.10pm here now, and I dare say Dennis will be not be around to make his 2nd pick as he will be .. But if you definitely know who you want, then go ahead. It is 48mins until Wednesday here so close enough

Well, I guess I'll wait then and talk myself out of my pick. I'll select later tonight when it's the AM for you guys

Anyone heard anything from 1800?

I too have suffered trying to understand this new "conversation" approach. Just like Michel, 1800-WorldCup.

But if you get into the history part you see that 1800-WorldCup "was seen yesterday at 11:57a." Not sure what that means. Must be he logged in but did not post as the last post was a week ago. Anyway, Michel has been around, so I assume he will appear now that it is his turn.

Yes, "was seen yesterday at 11:57a" means that he was logged in and came on the site at that time.

Not sure if this is still true but I know in the past that if I left a bigsoccer tab open so it starts when I log back in to my laptop it must grab something from bigsoccer even if you then don't even switch to that tab. This came up a few years ago when I was a mod and somebody thought I was on here and "must have seen their PM" and didn't respond. I haven't tested whether this is still an issue but it does make using the last seen info a bit of a problem.

Let's go.

Looks like we're back up and running. Good luck all

So thanks everyone for the multiple pms and emails.

I'll be picking in a few minutes.


Pick is up....


Just so folks know... it is 6:30 here and I don't foresee a situation arising where I wouldn't be able to make my return pick if my turn came up before I go to bed, in about another 7-8 hours, maybe even later than that. But if we don't get back to me, by 2am EST the next likely drafting window will be 8am EST...

Anything to pass the time.

I'm sending a proxy to DrHeckle since I'll be out for most of the night. Should be back by 10 PM est

email is best. PM works too, but i can pretty much guarantee that unless I'm asleep, I'll see an email within an hour of it being sent. but as I "talk" to Mr. Cheerful himself Michel, I'm not certain it will matter.

I have FC Weymouths proxy and Dennis wil pick soon after...It will be back to Buzz shortly!

I'm in and out for the rest of the evening here.

Thanks Buzz for updating my picks.

Cheers !

I tried sending a PM to 1800 but it wouldn't let me. I did PM kopteinKC

Don't bother sending PMs, I get online when I do and look in the draft thread before anything. I then state when I'll be back (all going well).

Will do.

And on that note, I'm out. I'll be back tomorrow.
