I believe the time has come to create the annual fantasy football league. I can't think of a really fair way to get people in, so here's the deal. I'm expanding to twelve teams this year. One night, probably around 1:00 AM pacific, I will post the league ID and password, so it will be first come first serve for people as they wake up the following day. If you don't get in, I'm sure other arrangements can be made, there is no reason that a second league can't be created. Good luck to everyone this season.

No offense, but that is a silly way of determine who gets in the league.

Exactly. Not fair to us.

Agreed. Have sign ups. First 12 people to sign up here in this thread get to play. However I don't think there is an easier way.

Interested. Altho you should just pick people you know won't run away mid season. So no skin fans.

I'm interested. I had fun doing it with you guys in the 2010 season, but missed out on joining last year.

I'm interested too...but I think there needs to be a better way to sign up. Oh, and some sort of quality screening would be nice. It's always a heartbreak when a league falls apart mid-season as people rage quit over a few losses or bad waiver wire luck.

Anyhow, let me know either way, I'd love to play with some Gamespotter's and I have a few faithful friends here who'd love to fill in any gaps the league might have in terms of players (if any).

Just go by people who are more active on forums first. That way I can talk s*** during the draft and all season long to people I genuinely despise.

Would there be enough people interested for 2 separate 10-team leagues? Someone other than monkeytoes could run the 2nd league. If not then Kitna's idea would work.

WTF?!?! Who's idea was it to do a 2 QB league? Awful. Once you get the 12, should vote on the settings me thinks.

I suggested this last year and it did not appear to have enough interest or people just weren't interested in a second league. Edit: If there are 20 people interested I will volunteer to be the league # 2 commissioner.

Should users that took part in last year's league have priority? Activity level on the forms is not a bad idea however a lot of the activity from league users was within the league on yahoo not on gamespot.

I've added two more spots, and eliminated the inactives from last year. Invitations will be sent out to owners from last year who actually played. which will leave a few spots open for new people. I'll post the league ID and password sometime tomorrow.

First come, first serve. If you can't get in, I'm sure another league can be formed. Good luck and please don't join if you intend on being inactive. There are plenty of others who actually care who would love the spot you're wasting.

I am assuming you didn't send out the invites to the active owners from last year yet. I checked my e-mail and I did not have anything.

Don't forget everyone, the draft is Thursday evening at 4:00 Pacific. It's obviously more fun with that human element, so please everyone show.

too late to push the draft back an hour? To 8 pm ET?
