    I actively update google docs for all when I'm doing a transfer for myself. If everyone does it then it's all good. But as long as the majority of us keep on top of it we should have an excellent tool to use for keeping track of transfers and potential targets.

    Footy Magoo has been in touch via PM and will try and get the league up and running on the official website within the next couple of days as he is a busy chappie.

    Sorry about that frasermc. I got dumped in Rothes overnight. It is a place that technology does not apparently like. I am just about to upgrade my membership again to get my PM back up and running. I am going to use a dedicated draft email this season.

    EDIT: PM sent.

    You should have received an email about access to the google doc by now as well.

    All of my proxy lists have been submitted to vegas2u. Since we pick 7 then 8th this should make the draft speedup somewhat.

    I will register for the league and everything once I get back.
    Thanks again and good luck.

    League code for Dust and Fantasy Olympics has been sent to everyone except Wendys - mailbox full.

    @Wendys- send me a PM after you clear your mailbox and I'll send you the codes.

    @Fraser- never received an email from the draft randomizer. No big deal, though.

    Whoops. Sorry. My mistake. I probably spelt your weird e-mail wrong. Did you get an e-mail from blech regarding access to google docs for Dust?

    For the record, I pick 7th in another league.

    I have a list that will probably keep things going through 8, maybe 9 rounds.

    Ready when you guys are!

    Wendy's is on vacation till August 3rd. I left a message for him, Top Shelf, in the SFA league.

    But I don't have an email for him.

    I expected an August 3rd start, which should work well for
    Tom. That way he can finish the draft.

    We will be starting on 3rd August.

    Wendys is picking 7th so by the time it runs down to him he should be ready to go. Considering three of the first four picks are people based in Europe I'm hoping to start the draft at around 5-6pm GMT.

    A new issue has now cropped up.

    Two managers still need to sign in to the official website and get logged onto the leagues.

    One is Samcole11. This shouldn't be too much of an issue. I've sent him a PM tonight and hopefully he'll be in very soon.

    But the other one is tomvandamn.

    tom has already stated on this thread that he will be unavailable from the 22nd to the 9th August. It's the 23rd today.

    This now means that we'll have to wait for him to return before he logs onto the official website.

    The draft can go ahead without him being logged in as vegas2u is proxying for him but if any further issues crop up then we're leaving it mighty fine to try and arrange a replacement on the 9th August.

    Tom has committed to keeping this moving. As long as he is back on or near the 9th you will be in pretty good shape.

    Ah.

    Missed that. My apologies. Had a quick look through the pages and PM's and couldn't see any info.

    Thanks for clearing it up.


    Nothing to see here people. Move along. :)

    Hey guys just wondering if there are any spots left in the league?

    Cheers.

    Afraid not. For this year anyway. All spots are taken in the leagues and we have two people on the waiting list.

    Have a look at this thread and if you're still interested stick a post on it -

    https://www.bigsoccer.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1405234

    We usually lose a few managers before the start of the next season so there's a reasonable chance for next season.

    Have a look around the threads and familiarise yourself with the All Rocks setup a little more.

    I have a relatively quiet week and a fairly local one.

    Tue: Aberdeen
    Wed: Dundee
    Thu: Inverness
    Fri: Aberdeen
    Sat: Dundee
    Sun: Dundee

    The only potential issue might be Thursday if my slot comes up when I am somewhere on the A9 but aside from that it looks trouble free.

    Good to hear. As I mentioned earlier in the thread the draft positions have worked out well as the three European managers are all within 4 selections of each other which should help keep the pace of the draft up.
