My fellow Head Coaches,
Welcome to the 2015 VP3 Fantasy NFL Season.
Last year we watched as Breesus went on a looong winning streak and eventually won the Championship trophy for the second year in a row. But it was a hard fought victory, with strong competition coming from all sides.
Breesus will begin the 2015 campaign looking for his hat-trick. Who can stop him?
Veteran Illuminators, Farnsworth's, Endlessnessism or the Doof's? Journeymen US Forces, Zim or Agent P? Or sophomore's BBs or Marcy?
2015 Timing:
The NFL season opener is 11 September, I plan to have the Draft take place on the 8th. This gives a couple of days to check teams, trade, etc.2015 Head Coaches:
By default you have all been automatically re-entered into this years League. If you have decided not to play this year, now is the time: please remove your team asap. If you can't do so, please email me to let me know (dan.spillman@gmail.com) and I will take care of it.It would be nice if you could drop me an email to confirm that you are playing, but I will assume you are.
2015 Team Names:
You are able to change your team names and images at any time. Feel free to do so.
2015 Draft:
The 2015 Draft will take place on 8 September. Just like in previous years it will be an Autopick draft, where the online server assigns players to teams. The Autopick will assign players based on NFL.com’s ranking, or you can change your preferred draft players. The Draft Order will also be managed by the Autopick system.

The luminators and BBs are both confirmed for season 15/16 ..... with both head coaches discussing the up coming season and expressing a desire for a full draft .....
ReplyDeleteGreat to have you onboard!
DeleteAhh the dream. There are a few ways of doing a live draft:
1. online live draft - coaches log in to the fantasy system at a particular time from their own locations and select from the draft board when it comes time for their pick. They then wait for the other coaches to select. This continues for 16 rounds.
2. offline draft - coaches meet and run the draft offline and then the results are fed into the online system later
3. combinations - the online system is used, some coaches meet up together, some log in from remote locations, some skip the draft and let the computer autopick for them
A live draft will take several hours to do, so timing is a huge factor. Accordingly, a combination live draft may suit best. Those that can meet up do so, those that can draft from their computers do so, and those that can't do either delegate to the autopick. Or, they delegate a draft list to a trusted Head Coach or League Owner.
I'm open to ideas.
