Strawberry Fields Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Thanks again dude. I have put in for a couple of players in the waiver. I could do with finding a good RB too. How is that first waiver order decided? Seems unfair that im at the bottom with my team. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaijin Posted August 29, 2023 Author Share Posted August 29, 2023 Hi folks Apologies, I'm snowed under at work, like always Thank you to those who have answered questions for others; much appreciated While you can make it all the way to the final, with a bit of luck, by not even logging in for the next 4 months, it does seem that most people last year got more interested in what was going on, as it went on. We've got 7 days to get ourselves sorted. I'm off for the next two nights, then at work for 2, then off for 3 more. It's almost a holiday So please ask as many questions as you want and I will try and answer them. I'll be honest, I think @Arbre has done his research since the last season, and knows more about what's going on here than I ever will Kudos to that man. Anyone who can help out with answers to questions, be my guest and thank you very much Anyway, feel free to ask anything in here or PM me if you like. I don't want anyone feeling like they want to do more, but don't know how @TwoTents pretty sure waiver order on the first week is selected randomly by the software. After week 1, the waiver order will be be based on where each of us ranks in the league. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pepe Ramon Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 (edited) @Two Tents things will start to get easier after the first couple of weeks. If anyone needs any help, feel free to DM me and I'll help if I can. @Gaijin one of the benefits of being autistic is the ability to hyper-focus on stuff, the problem with that, is that the hyper-focus is usually directed towards non-important stuff like fantasy leagues for example. Waivers should be going through soon... ETA. NFL isn't as predictable as soccer and the big teams don't always win, it's possible for a single player to score more than the rest of the team combined. Everybody taking part has a chance to win, especially this year as the best players are spread out amongst more teams. New players break through every year and there are always surprises, so just because your player hasn't done much yet, that doesn't mean he will have a poor season.

I am autistic too, diagnosed late in my 40's a year or so back. I can definitely relate to that. I got my two picks in the waiver. They are quite questionable but better prospects that the ones i dropped i think. I've noticed both of my defence teams have the same bye week too, so need to sort that out. It seems a lot more involved than the premier league version, i am enjoying this so far. Even watched a bit of NFL channel last night. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pepe Ramon Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 @Two Tents the scores are updated live as the games are being played, so sometimes I put the radio commentary on then just watch the screen as the numbers change. I was successful with all my waivers as well, I also picked up an extra QB (Mariota) as a free agent. Free Agents or FA are players you can get but you don't have to go through the waiver wire, they are available immediately. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strawberry Fields Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 (edited) I changed my username to the same name as my team. I'm only using one tent now so Two Tents felt a bit wrong. Just thought id post so it doesn't get confusing. Edited August 31, 2023 by Strawberry Fields 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Villan Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 Have had a fiddle with a few things, not quite sure what I have done though when do we get to see whos where in the league 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brysee Posted September 5, 2023 Share Posted September 5, 2023 I think we play first game this week then it will update after every game 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pepe Ramon Posted September 5, 2023 Share Posted September 5, 2023 The first game is on Thursday night, Kansas City Chiefs v Detroit Lions, the rest of the games are on Sunday and there are 2 on Monday night, the league will be updated after all games are played, usually on Tuesday or Wednesday. On a normal weekend there might be games on Thursday, Sunday and Monday but not usually on Saturday and remember that there are time differences in the States so obviously games finish at different times. You can change players right up until the game that they're involved in kicks off but once the game has started there's nothing you can change. Best of luck everyone, I believe this year will be closer because there are more folks taking part, it should be an interesting season. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
