The voting is not happening yet, but last year the Joe's players did not vote on the rules. I'm not sure if that is going to change since I don't know how to reach all of the Joe's players anyway.

 

As far as draft order, we already have two different proposed methods along with the method we used last year, adding a 4th option is just crazy, and I can almost assure you that the votes will be all over the place and we will end up being stuck with random 15min before the draft due to no majority.

 

Also the change from NFL.com to yahoo or ESPN, if you definitely don't want to go back to NFL.com people should vote YES to both options, once again, here I can see no one getting a majority and us being stuck back at NFL.com due to too many options.

 

I'm not really into holding more rounds of voting, so if anyone else has any suggestions on how to cut down on options it would be great.

 

 

Vote on the voting options.....   :)

Could take longer than the season.

IMO Joe's league should be taken care of by the commish of that league. I think you have enough to deal with in this league.

Once our vote is done all we should have to do is watch the pre season games and get ready for the draft.

On a side note:  If we are going to have two new players every year then the draft should be random and that would eliminate any personal issues with the draft. I could understand if we had the same players every year but we don't as it stands. I don't agree with giving new players the first choice over our 10th place finisher. The new players are not new to fantasy football so they should be treated just like the rest of us. 

 If we do have a two player keeper having two new players would warrant them having two picks apiece before any of us draft. If that does happen then the new players would end up with two picks and then their choice of draft position. Random pick would simplify the process.

Well the thing is we wanted the leagues to have the same rules so that when players move up / down they are not having to learn the rules over again.

That's cool. So will Joe's league and our league all vote?  Or will Joe's league just use the rules we vote on? Interesting dilemma if you have to contact all the owners in both leagues. Good luck! :panic:

Last season we voted in the elite league and Joe's just adopted the rules, so I think it should be the same.

Just waiting for the other 6 people to vote!

 

Here is what we know so far:

 

Proposals 1,2,3,7 are already approved. 1,2, & 7 are all Yes votes and Proposal 3 has all votes of B which means the draft will be randomized upon league creation.

And it's still an important vote.

 

Yep, but just for question 4, the site of the draft which is leaning towards Yahoo now and the best he can do is tie it. All other questions, I think, have a majority vote by now for the answers.

 

This weekend, if I remember, was his deadline. If he doesn't vote, I guess we just go with the majority votes from whoever has voted so far???

His votes will be No across the board if he doesn't vote (basically a vote for no change) which would mean NFL.com is going to be our site this season.

I'm fine with a tie resulting in no change, but I think we should allow for those who voted for ESPN to change their vote. My two cents...

NFL.com gets my vote 

 

Darn it!!! Hopefully they have made upgrades to their mobile interface, that was my biggest peeve that it kept crashing.

 

Am I the only one whose nfl.com mobile app kept crashing? I use an IPhone 6 Plus.
