NFBC Message Boards

When will we be able to logon to the league via NFBC and start setting our queue, etc? Looks like no players from the auction have been loaded yet?

See original post by 76erfan
Sunday March 6 @7pm est
$500 entry
Auction for your starters on Sunday night
dcXpress your reserves on Wed, March 9 @9pm est
Please respond on the original post (just trying to spread the word with this listing)

Would it be worth posting this under a new message - so that people scrolling the headlines will see we have 2 openings?

So can we book it? Looks like we are we officially full with a good date on the reserve draft... Yea! Thanks 76erFan for working so hard to accommodate everyone on the dates. Should be a great format and fun league!

Is this league in addition to the 3/4 one with the same format? Or are we starting over with a new group of people...?

Haven't heard an update on this league in a while, I assume its still on?
Please contact me with the details for the reserve draft, thanks!

The sad thing is that NFBC DOES have a 4-HOUR version of DC, available this year! But nobody knows about it because it isn't on the main contest page, and although Greg keeps saying IT will add it... you guessed it... crickets So I want to play 4 hours like I'm sure many of you do, but don't want to...

bumping this thread up as we look for ONLY 2 more owners!

Thanks, looking forward to this format!

Count me in too. Open March 6 or March 7. $500 works, and I also like DC reserve draft to avoid weekly FAAB.
How does the auction work? All in one place, or some sort of software?

This seems like a great format, but not sure if anyone is signing up since we can't see the seats on the master contest page. I would like to join but hesitate to pay and commit not knowing if the league will ever fill. I'm sure other owners are in the same boat - its the chicken and the egg... BUMP...

Greg said they were going to see if IT could list the 4 hour format on the contest availability page, which will hopefully encourage others to sign up. For everyone out there in a slow draft that is turning into a slooooow draft, THIS may be the next format for you! Click signup and then the 4-hour ...

I read somewhere that NFBC was hosting the Draft Champion drafts again this year in a 4 hour version . But when i check contest availability on the site all I see are the traditional 8 hour versions and Express (60 secs). If these 4 hour versions are available, would it be possible to list them on t...

I've never participated in the NFBC Main Event, nor a Live auction before - just lots of auctions on the computer. For those of you that have experienced a live in-person auction, what is it like? I'm doing two in Vegas this year, one NL and the other Mixed. Is there an auctioneer and we all have pa...

I have my first Draft Champions Express draft this weekend and was wondering from those who have already participated - how long do these 50-rounders take? If everyone took 1 minute, theoretically I would be late to work on Monday morning trying to finish, but I'm hoping they move significantly fast...

When can we start to see and submit bids on free agents in our leagues? I'm in a $125 satellite...

Will the $375 slow draft leagues keep opening new ones as they fill this year? Or will there be a cut-off on the total number of leagues? I'm loving the one I'm in, and want to do another, but keep it spread out date wise so I'm not doing two at the same time. Just not sure if there will still be op...

Don't know if this is the right place to post, but will the $375 slow draft leagues keep opening new ones as they fill? Or will there be a cutoff on the total number of leagues? I'm loving the one I'm in, and want to do another, but keep it spread out date wise so I'm not doing two at the same time....

I think another good idea would be to offer more 4 hour leagues next year. In this day and age of connectivity and mobile apps, its easy to manage. Heck, I've made picks on my smart phone. I'm guessing lots of fantasy players who have been tormented by slow pickers would quickly jump at the 4 hour o...

I know there has been some discussion about proper etiquette for these slow drafts and how to deal with repeat slow drafters. One idea I had that may help the NFBC and the players would be a cumulative time monitoring system. Something that tracked how long each owner took between picks and kept a r...

Thanks. I wonder why the payout structure is so different given they are both the same slow draft format? Did anyone play a $375 game to know if it was this way last year with even payouts for top 3? Also, the rules seem to be missing, or there is some sort of script error downloading the rules page...

I tried to sign up for a slow draft, but the default signup page does not list slow drafts as an option. Anyone know if these are available yet? Also, do the $375 leagues really pay out the same amount for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd? Thanks!

So let me get this straight. If we have Oakland or Seattle players, we can watch both games in Japan, and then decide after the fact whether or not to include these players in our active roster for week 1? Seems like the more likely scenario is these players will be locked 5 mins before game time, l...
