Rant Fantasy Baseball League Board

Hey, now that the sign-up is over, I've decided to start a new thread to rant in about the league. For starters, I'd like to make a few announcements:

Draft Order

Here is the draft order and just remember it reverses every round:

1. Mensa Pirates
2. Silent Assassin
3. Cubs 2004 World Series Champs
4. Lice
5. Boondock Saints
6. Original Bob
7. Crash Pikeys
8. Dirty Sox
9. All*Stars
10. Yo Momma
11. Brew Crew
12. Rant Giants (Sorry, no Bonds!)
13. Erotic Joes
14. Buckeyeboys
15. Crew
16. Bamanation
17. Joesanity
18. Murda Inc.


Trade Voting

Currently there is a poll on the message board related to how trades will be handled. The three options are:

Leave decision in my hands
Have a league-wide vote
Leave veto power in my hands, but poll the league for their opinion


Only three owners haven't voted and the top two options are tied up, so if no one else votes, my decision will be the tie-breaker.

Points for loss by a pitcher

There has been discussions about how many points a pitcher should lose for a loss. The options are:

-3
-2
-1

Again, there is a tie for which option to choose and if the tie isn't broken, I will have the final say.

No Streaming!

For those of you who don't know, streaming is where you pick up a pitcher with a good matchup every day in hopes of stacking your stats. Anyone caught doing this will be punished.

No streaming...thank you. I'm in a hockey league where a couple guys do it all the time and it pisses me off.

I agree. In a league last year, one guy started doing it out of the blue. Pissed me off, but I wasn't the commish so I couldn't do anything. So, what I did do (since my staff wasn't very strong) was pick up all the pitchers I thought he'd go after, then I'd drop them so they'd be on waivers and he couldn't go after them.

Both polls are still in a tie so if you haven't voted yet, please do. Also, there is a poll on closers for fun (bottom left of most of your home pages). Finally, the NO STREAMING rule goes for all players...not just pitchers.

Would anyone be opposed to me moving the draft time up an hour earlier???

The new draft time would be 8:00 PM EST on the same day (3/10). If this will not work for anyone, please let me know and we can discuss it. I would like to move the time up so the draft didn't go so late, but if it absolutely positively won't work for someone to move it up, then I will leave it. Just, if it won't work, please let me know.

Well, at least two people say they aren't fine with "new" time. I'd just like to know if there's any way they could work around it...that's it. If not, then I guess the current time will stick.

It's official...the draft time has been moved up an hour to 8:00 PM EST. If this absolutely positively WILL NOT work for anyone, please let me know and tell me what the earliest time is that WILL work for you. Thanks.

Crash; what's the deal? Was all set to pick tomorrow, why a week change? Glad you got it pushed up an hour though!

It's been March 10th the whole time, but now I split the difference and it is at 8:30 PM EST. And that's it, that's the time.
