Fantasy Legislature update -- IV

Posted at 9:24 AM on December 28, 2006 by Bob Collins (5 Comments)

We stocked the "Maroon" league yesterday. I got a couple of extra entries and can't see any reason why we shouldn't just have a 22-team league there to keep everyone happy.

I'll start drafting the Maroon League, probably, tonight. Hard to say because my dear old sister is in town and she's not likely to want to hear about Fantasy Legislature. Her loss.

Last night and this morning I completed just about all of the initial team pages (the art work and format isn't done but I'll throw these up anyway until then), and I also wrote the initial spreadsheet for scoring. You'll find a "standings" page and a 'rosters" page which is just a sorted Excel spreadsheet (my hope this year is the Legislature bans that creepy Microsoft nonsense from Excel's Web page function).

But here's the thing. I put the email addresses of managers on the team pages (which aren't "live" yet) so that managers can contact one anothr for trades etc. But I guess I need everyone's permission to do that (I thought that was in the original sign-up form). If you're a manager and you want your e-mail address listed drop me a note. Otherwise you won't be able to trade players because you'll have no way to contact other managers other than via the blog and that's a pretty public way to work a deal.

Update.
Here. If you're a manager, you can voluntarily submit information for your fellow managers' interest.

If you want to set up an account on Hotmail or gmail or any of those rather than using your primary e-mail.

I think Julia is working on a form for you to provide some bio information if you want that on your team page. More on that later.

Happy fantasies!

Actually, managers, you can fill out the bio form and let us know if you want your email shared with other managers. It WON'T be shared with the general public, just the other managers in your league who also agree to the share theirs.

Bob, man, you have the form?

Ah, OK, well now I have to go back and fix the team pages. I'll get to the manager off-list directory. But it won't be until well into next week.

Awesome. We'll get that blog going too.

Bob, you're cranking it out. It isn't unnoticed or unappreciated!

The pages are looking great Bob... great work.

Thanks. They're pretty much just placeholder pages while I get the navigation set up. Graphics guru Ben Tesch is designing the site.

Maroon League, I'm not forgetting about you. It's just that the Gold League is the lab rat for the infrastructure behind this.
