top gun 2014 LAST CHANCE FOR sign up

[stevew]

Sign up here.

[Lathum]

I would play for sure

[Radii]

Just in case anyone was waiting on me for this... I no longer follow the sport, haven't watched a game this season, so I am out. This is unlikely to change in future years as well. Good luck, etc!

[PurdueBrad]

I've never participated but if you're good with a newbie, I would be down with trying it out.

[sooner333]

I had to sit out last year because of work, but I'd love to do it again this year.

Interdasting. Oh, well. I guess it's time for someone else to take over the reigns. I suppose I could, but if someone else has more time on their hands, I'd prefer to defer.

[britrock88]

I ran it last year, can do it again or cede to one of the winners.

(Patience, people! I'm just settling down for the Selection Show! :D )

[britrock88]

Yeah, just start signing up below. I'll get things going shortly.

I would say just get the game going, I doubt anyone will be butt hurt.

Game Rules

1) Each participant drafts a team of 6 players.
2) Snake draft done on the forum.
3) You score as many points as each of your drafted players scores in the NCAA tournament.
4) One of your players must be from a team seeded 10th or lower.
5) "Play-in games" do not count towards the standings.

IMPORTANT NOTE

This does not start until the selection show and must end before tip-off on Thursday, so it is critical that you are able to be around during the day to make picks and/or send in lists. The draft clock this year will run from 10am-6pm eastern time, everyone will have one hour to pick, after that time we move on and the skipped person can make their pick whenever they show up. Please do not sign up if you are unable to either participate during the day or send in lists long enough to cover 1-2 rounds.

Post here to sign up. The original game size was 10 people, but in recent years we've gotten 16+ and have run 2 games, I'm more than willing to do that again this year if there is enough interest.

in

[britrock88]

PMed last year's participants. I don't foresee a problem getting to 10; hoping we get to 16-plus before 10am tomorrow so I can split the group and get drafts going.

[Young Drachma]

iN

Looks like we need at least 3 more and can take up to 7(or even more if we wanna split into a 3rd game.

[britrock88]

Thanks for monitoring, Steve. Hoping for 3 more. If we're stuck at 15 or fewer as of tomorrow morning, would we rather run one large league or two small ones?

[stevew]

90 players is way too many for one league, normally it gets hard once you get above 60.

yeah, but I would imagine we get 3 more by the AM. Top Gun is pretty popular.

Hoping for a couple more. Will get things sorted in the morning, set up threads, and shoot out PMs. Be ready to roll! :)

[Logan]

I'm in guys. Thanks for the PM and sorry I wasn't around sooner.

[henry296]

In terms of the speed of the draft since we are getting a later start, I think 2 smaller leagues might be more efficient.

One more would be stellar. I'd consider letting people join as the draft begins and throwing then onto the back of the draft order. As it is, I'll start getting things ready.

[britrock88]

Alright, draft threads are up. Holler if you want to join the party.

[Zinto]

If you still need one, I will join

[britrock88]

If you still need one, I will join

Welcome to Game A.

[wade moore]

Wish I hadn't slept on this :(. This is a yearly tradition for me, will miss it.

[britrock88]

If you want to back-fill...

[wade moore]

Is there a spot?

[britrock88]

You could be the ninth in either game.

[wade moore]

Oh, nah ;)

[britrock88]

Okey doke. We'll miss having ya.
