[The Outsider]

Sorry, Falcons fans. I'm accepting submissions for an alternate thread title.

Welcome to the GAF Justice League, a fantasy football league where we wager something much more valuable than money: our pride and honor!

I'm happy to carry on the tradition started by Arkos for the second year in a row. Let's congratulate our GAF Justice League Champions from 2016!

So, here's the deal:

1. There are three separate leagues here: GJLP, GJL2, and GJL3. Each will have 12 teams, divided into two divisions of six teams.
2. Basic Rules: 0.5 PPR, fractional scoring, one week games, waivers = FAAB
3. Playoffs: 6 teams, division winners earn a bye, one week games, total length of three weeks
4. Promotion and Relegation: Top 4 teams move up (thus, division winners automatically move up). Middle 4 teams stay where they are. Bottom 4 teams move down. Those in GJLP can't move up, and those in GJL3 can't move down.
5. Record Tie Breakers: Division Record > Points For > Points For Last Matchup.
6. AFK: Don't be that guy. You will be booted from the league if necessary.

neogafjusticeleague@gmail.com is the alternate contact email. This is for users that are banned throughout the course of the season that need to get a hold of me for any reason. Please include your GAF username with your emails!

MARK YOUR CALENDARS!

Oh, and league invites will be sent soon.

 

[Rad Shadow]

I mean, I'm in. I have live drafts august 26th and Sept 3rd around 7pm est. Those will take about 3 hours or so.

Other than that I'm good/free.

Looking forward to move up again!

 

[Mazre]

I must sadly announce my fantasy retirement. Thanks all for many enjoyable seasons and good luck on the new season.

 

[Hustler]

I have a live draft on the 26th at 7pm EST. I'm good with most days after 8PM EST.

 

[KingV]

Only other draft I have is on the 29th of august 9 EST

 

[youngplaya21]

I'm down for an auction/FAAB league again, and I just have a draft on the 24th and 25th

 

[The Outsider]

I must sadly announce my fantasy retirement. Thanks all for many enjoyable seasons and good luck on the new season.

Thank you, sorry to see you go.

Our 2016 5th place finishers in GJL2 and GJL3 have been promoted as a result of this. Congrats, Passive Observer and ironmang!

 

[smokeymicpot]

I am in.

 

[Bonethug]

In, I enjoyed the auction/faab from last year. I am available anytime after 6pm edt m-f anytime on weekends.

 

[kylecoley182]

I am in ! I did awful last year but it was fun !

 

[kylecoley182]

Friday and Saturdays are best but I'll make time for the draft !

 

[sangreal]

did better than I expected in GJL2 last year. Looking forward to GJLP

 

[Compbros]

In there, can't wait.

 

[GK86]

I'm in. I need to redeem myself after last year.

 

[The Outsider]

Glad to see some returning faces.

Is there a general preference between drafting after preseason week 3 or waiting until the entire preseason is over?

 

[Captain Zyrain]

What back end do you all use?

 

[The Outsider]

What back end do you all use?

Yahoo.

 

[Future Foundation]

I'm in!

 

[Compbros]

The later for me, the better. Anything after pre-season game 2 is gravy tho.

 

[Captain Zyrain]

Yahoo.

Oh excellent.

I'd love to join if there is room. I've got a couple other Yahoo leagues going.

 

[Farsi]

Mind if I join the waitlist?

 

[The Outsider]

Oh excellent.

I'd love to join if there is room. I've got a couple other Yahoo leagues going.

Mind if I join the waitlist?

Added both of you.

I reached out to goober to fill our currently open slot since he was the only one on the waitlist last year who didn't get a chance to play.

I expect we'll have a few open spots opening up though, if the past couple seasons are any indication.

 

[FUBAR McDangles]

Wouldn't mind being added to the wait-list. If not, it's no big deal.

 

[The Outsider]

Wouldn't mind being added to the wait-list. If not, it's no big deal.

Added!

 

[Vyer]

hey guys, gonna take a break this year from the league, thanks. good luck hope you guys have fun

 

[The Outsider]

Thanks, hope to see you next year!

Compbros slides up to GJL2 and Captain Zyrain fills an open slot in GJL3.

Still waiting to hear from goober on the other open slot in GJL3.

 

[Rawr Its Ry]

Mon-Fri avail after 5pm-ish PST. Sat or Sunday draft whenever. I don't really have a format preference but TBH I'd enjoy reg snake instead of auction. But it's not that big of an issue really.

 

[kylecoley182]

Any format is fine

 

[JFunky]

Can I get on the wait list? Have a couple of other yahoo leagues and would love to do another!

 

[The Outsider]

Added you.

As far as the format, I think we'll probably stick with auction/FAAB unless there is significant opposition.

 

[GK86]

I'm cool with any draft date as long as it isn't on the 19th.

 

[Violence Jack]

Oh yes. Can't wait to see what GL2 level of competition is like. I'm busy as hell this month, but I'm available most nights anytime after 6pm and 10pm mountain time zone. I'm unavailable on the 17th.

 

[Jayhawk]

Though I want to redeem myself after being demoted to league #2, I think I have to retire from fantasy football since I am too busy with other things.

 

[Frustrated_Grunt]

I'm going to have to drop out, don't think I have the time to run multiple fantasy teams this year. Thanks for the great two years!

 

[Captain Zyrain]

Thanks, hope to see you next year!

Compbros slides up to GJL2 and Captain Zyrain fills an open slot in GJL3.

Still waiting to hear from goober on the other open slot in GJL3.

Started from the bottom now we.. still on the bottom, we just started! Looking forward to it.

Do you use the on-line draft through Yahoo? I can probably make almost any time work, except 9/2/17.

 

[ShinRPGamer]

Just saw the thread today and I'll be able to participate again. Hopefully I can redeem myself after the awful showing last year.

Thanks for participating the past couple years, hope to see you next year.

Cappa moves up to GJL2. Farsi and FUBAR McDangles, you're both in GJL3. Still holding the last open spot... for now.

Yes, draft will be conducted online through Yahoo, time and date still to be determined.

 

[kelik]

I will be back to defend the GJLP championship. Cmon back to back.

Also any time after 7pm EDT works. Would rather not do labor day weekend but if that's the best for everyone else then I'll go with it.

 

[Crazymoogle]

I'm back, baby.*

Spoiler

*unless the draft time is ridiculous, because UTC+8 is no joke

 

[goober]

aw man, did i respond too late again?

edit: i think that open spot might be for me?? wishful thinking

 

[The Outsider]

Sorry, I meant to respond to your PM sooner.

That spot is indeed yours, updated the OP to include you in GJL3.

Still working on setting up the leagues, but I hope to have league invites out soon.

And just to put it out there, would August 27th work for most of you as the draft day?

I have a draft at 10AM Pacific on the 27th (Yahoo(!), online).

I'm not sure if I can do two at the same exact time, never tried it before.

 

[youngplaya21]

27th works for me! But for the love of God don't put it too late. Game of thrones finale is that night

 

[ErasureAcer]

I'm gonna retire too. I have better stuff to be doing than watching NFL in hopes my fake team wins me nothing.

 

[Violence Jack]

27th works for me.

 

[GK86]

27th sounds good.

 

[KingV]

27th will work for me too.

 

[Rad Shadow]

27th works for me! But for the love of God don't put it too late. Game of thrones finale is that night

Pretty much this.

 

[Hustler]

27th is fine for me, but I have church from 1-4PM EST. so anything around that time is a no go for me.
