Reyturner Posted May 15, 2014 9 invites sent based on the list I posted before but only 6/10 slots filled so far. I'm hoping to have 10/10 by Friday night. If there are still open slots after that, I'll open them up to others who are interested. edit: League is full. Entriech - confirmedTwig - confirmedtaterdactyl - confirmedundermind9 - confirmedcasktapper - confirmedCleinhun - confirmedBusbyBerkeleyForbin - confirmedpkirkner - confirmedMe - Commissioner waiting list: Jutranjo friccish jeremywc Forbin's +1 I'm hoping the run the live draft on Saturday morning before noon PST. Does this horribly conflict with anyone? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
undermind9 Posted May 15, 2014 im having work done at the house, so should be around - is there an auto-draft feature if people miss/cant make it? (or if my wife raises hell for being on the damn doto all day) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Reyturner Posted May 15, 2014 Yes. If you miss the draft, you'll be assigned players by default by the system. After that you'll be able to trade your players for free agents (players not on any other team) or with other players at a rate of one a day. It's not impossible that I might miss it myself (toddlers are notoriously disrespectful of their dad's dota duties [no love for doto dad :V]). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm playing in a meatworld Android Netrunner tournament on Saturday, so I will be out of the house for most of the day (back around 7 or 8 ET). That and Friday night are my only commitments all weekend. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Reyturner Posted May 15, 2014 I'll lock the draft time in tomorrow night based on the feedback you guys leave. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
taterdactyl Posted May 15, 2014 I'll be on tonight to officially join. And I'm free all day Saturday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pkirkner Posted May 15, 2014 Saturday works fine for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Twig Posted May 16, 2014 I actually won't be able to officially join until tomorrow night, but as you said that's when you hope to have it filled, I figure that's cool! Don't have access to the Dotos until then. I will join, though! I should also be around for the drafting, but might not. I'm going to lose anyway so it's not like it's a huge deal if I Extra Lose, but I'll try! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Entriech Posted May 16, 2014 Should be able to get joined to the league tomorrow morning, spent the day downloading Dota 2 on my netbook via hotel internet. I'll be around a bit on Saturday morning, but will probably have to drop out around 11:30am Central. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reyturner Posted May 16, 2014 Awesome! Sounds like everyone will at least be in the league by tomorrow. The Draft will start at 11am PST, May 17. Thanks guys! I know its been a pain in the butt for a few of you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trev Posted May 16, 2014 Is there anyone left over who didn't make it in to this one who would like to be a part of a League? I am looking for a group. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BusbyBerkeley Posted May 17, 2014 Oh god, I didn't realize there would be a live draft. I probably will be able to do it, but it's nice to know I can still get garbage picks if I miss it. Also, fucking WEIRD. I just noticed Taterdactyl is in Louisville, and SO AM I. I almost never see people from here on the internet in the wild. Small world.

Entriech Posted May 17, 2014 I should be able to make it to the draft, hopefully. I'mma get all the ringers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dewar Posted May 17, 2014 Hmm, I wonder if w have enough people on the waiting list to start another league? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
undermind9 Posted May 17, 2014 stupid question, but isnt the point of the league to have your players score points in all their games this week...why did they wait till after the NA qualifiers are over (sorry liquid!)? furthermore shouldnt said eliminated teams been removed from the fantasy league draft? unfortunately i was hanging flower baskets and missed the draft - it would not have been a pleasant conversation "dear sweetie, heres a drill...i gotta go get Puppey for my support 1spot not complaining at all, i just think its weird that i got 2 NA teams already out+ **edit - i was reading the faq on dota2.com and learned that they count ALL ongoing tournaments..not just the international. makes sense, and i suppose if you are really up-and-up on the pro scene picking up an eliminated team would be good Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Malachy Posted May 19, 2014 Hello! If you didn't make it into this league (like me) but want to join one, I've set up a second league. Just message me and I'll add you in. I'm not very well versed in pro DOTA, so this is more for fun and getting a chance to participate in the league system and see what it is all about. It would be nice if people could remain at least semi-active so the league doesn't go dead. If you message me let me know when you'd be available to draft.

Reyturner Posted May 20, 2014 My clever plan to load up on Chinese Qual players would have panned out much better if I'd loaded up on players who were either: a. Chinese b. in the Chinese Quals >Game is hard Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BusbyBerkeley Posted May 21, 2014 So uh... What's a good place to see which teams will be playing each week? I probably ought to swap my guys in and stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We don't have to lock them in for a full week like in fantasy football... ?? And is the Dota client the only way to check on our teams? I keep forgetting to look while I'm in there.

Reyturner Posted May 21, 2014 You can change daily, but only on days more than 24h into the future. You can also swap players for free agents at a rate of one a day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
