Eilandor is signed up in ESPN.

Gabrian was sent an ESPN invite request.

Just sent TetNak a PM to confirm his wife wants in, after getting her email, I'll send her invite.

Is there a way to pick the keep via the league, or just here.

Ah - Done. When/how are we going to do the draft?

You know, since new players don't have a keeper, they should draft first.

New players should get a round 0 draft (pre-draft draft). That's the usual rules that I found concerning keepers and new teams.

1. Existing owners select keepers (or opt not to)
2. New owners (and existing owners who doesn't have keeper) select Round 0 choice, so everyone has 1 player
3. Draft starts as scheduled

Ah, if they get a round 0 draft, that's fine.

Yeah, they draw on Round 1 actually, to fill up to match with those that have keepers. Then we start on round 2 normally with snake. the 'round 0' as Shurijo is calling it is out of normal draft order, and get's them even with the rest of us. We have this thing in my work league too, as we added 2 new teams (14 total!)

League update: Eilandor and Mrs TetNak have both signed up at ESPN and joined our league.

Only need Gabrian to create an ESPN account/join league.

What's the consensus on draft dates? If we do it over Bren Con weekend, will those not attending be able to draft? We could spread it out over Friday through Monday or Tuesday like the last draft. Would probably need Commish to have emails or chat username of everyone to send alerts.
