I asked you this a few weeks ago and you said nope - don't "gamble". What gives m'bucko?

Ring is totally on his own hand.

Keep telling yourself: keeper league.

And speaking of which, how would that work. We earmark two guys to carry over to next year or something?

Needs a good thinking upon but a small thing could always happen.

For as large as the community is now there aren't enough members clamoring for big meetup. Just the usual suspects. And when you are talking about 30 people not much needs to be planned.

If we knew we would (not could, would) get 90+ it gets super easy to do. Last few years, at peak L4D2, we got bupkis - outside of the usuals.

Then yeah - works like this.

Wednesday: All players are free agents minus those that had claims put in for them earlier (which are claimed and stuck on whoever's team claimed them)

Thursday: Players still free agents. Once the Thrs night game begins all players on those two teams flip over to waivers and will stay there until Tuesday 11:59pm whatever timezone.

Friday: Everyone else still free agents.

Saturday: Everyone else still free agents. When the Saturday games start up the players on those teams will flip over to waivers until Tuesday 11:59pm after gametime.

Sunday: Rinse/repeat just like above. Once a game starts, the players involved flip over to waivers until Tuesday 11:59pm

Monday: Same thing for Monday night dudes.

Tuesday. Everyone should be on waivers.

EXCEPTIONS:

You drop someone. They go on waivers for two days no matter when you drop them. For example. It's Wednesday, and you make a waiver claim for some dude. If you are successful you get your guy and whoever you marked to drop on your team is then dropped. Even though it's free agent Wednesday your just dropped guy hits waivers for two days and won't be a free agent until Friday. I imagine you can hit situations where a guy that is dropped on a Saturday and would normally be a free agent on Monday has their team playing on Sunday so they stay on waivers until Wednesday. Not sure if that's the case but wouldn't surprise me.

Also teams that are on a bye week are different.

I thought it was pretty common once the Sunday early games hit everything goes on waivers until Wednesday. Or is this different?

Just looked at the lineups tonight prior to the Thrs Nite game and sat there for five minutes trying to figure out what the hell happened.

Then of course, lol.

lol. That is all.

Ringers: Decent team but probably due for a few losses.

#2: Ugh. What a train wreck. Though it is all Bizzaro land right now what with Luck being the worst starting QB and so on.

Sunday night is all good on this end. 

So October 4th then. We're night owls here on the east coast so no problemo if you want to make things copacetic time-wise for the west coast types i.e. Stutters.

Been around for awhile now but the Pip-Boy editions are coming up as prizes now. This is Bethesda official btw, not some game shop thing.

Any ideas on a draft day/time?

We have to draft in 14 days or less. Crazy.

#2

There are 9 scoring positions per team.

6 of mine scored, in total, 7.1 points.

Yeah, Leslie clearly doesn't want to play again /sarcasm

Me too.

That eight already? I can't count.

Gronkalicious. Also Brady.

...got around to getting the long-gone authenticator off my account today (phone broke two years back it seems...)

Just waiting on Amazon for Reaper now. I could have spent the same at Gamestop for a digital but that seemed wrong on all accounts. 

We pay for the servers ourselves, we don't actually rent them out.

The only real reason for any lag you are experiencing are the DDoS attacks against our server which seem to be happening regularly lately

Blame me.

Because it was me.

TBT was on the horn with me earlier regarding league #2, said you guys were way light. So I joined.

I nagged him to hit the rando draft button early. blame me for you good/bad spot.

The first entered PC will be my 2007 build

The build thread is still here in the forums...

Auto-populate. Now you actually want me to work. But I have thought about it...

So, there's gonna be some changes around here in a month or so. Forums moving from the circa late-2000's era up into the now times with content streams and responsive things and all that.

One thing I've always wanted to get around to doing was Rig Fight! We all have computers, some better than others. Occasionally someone will drop a build thread as they create their latest monster gaming machine.  But alas, we have no community record of who's gaming with what, how fast (slow) it is, and so on.

I could have done this a year or two ago but now, it's kinda easy peasy to pull off. So, as part of the community refresh inbound I figure this can come along for the ride. Hell, can even give out prizes on a yearly basis and so on. You get the idea.

So, what would you want for community DB of this nature? Out of the gate I got this:

Type (Desktop/Laptop/Other)

Operating System

CPU Make

CPU Model

CPU Stock Speed

CPU Operating Speed (Current speed for overclockers)

Memory Size (GBs)

Primary Storage (HD/SSD/Memory)

Primary HD/SSD Make

Primary HD/SSD Size

Standard text box for you to blither about in about how great your PC is.

Image upload pile for you to dump all the glorious pictures of your special snowflake.

After that, well, sky's the limit. I imagine we'll want fields PCMark 7 and 8, 3D Marks of various flavors.

Monitor Make/Model

Standard screen res.

Gets a bit tricky with dual card people but otherwise video card make and model, video card memory (total?), shader count?

Case make. Uhh...

Cost too. Will be interesting to see how people do value wise. Also to laugh years later after spending $xxxx only to see some $30 part from China two years later equal it in performance

Naturally all this is browsable, sortable, etc.

Have at it!

Fine here

Draft 7th 8th or 9th? We need to get this locked in now...

Sad Packers fan is sad...

Anyways, probably time to start setting up a draft time (after the 4th preseason game of course)
