Oppo,
There was a post earlier today that the Oppo fantasy league from last year will not be revived. Here is my effort to revive it. Comment below if you are interested in playing. There may be someone better suited to be commish than me, but I am happy to run the league if no one else wants to step up. Unfortunately, I was not part of the league last year, so I don’t know how big it needs to be or who to invite. Any assistance is welcome.
EDIT - We will also need to figure out how to communicate everyone’s email address etc privately.

Ok people we need to take an ESPN/yahoo poll. We have 8 people now which is enough. May repost to see if we can get 1-2 more people. I definitely prefer ESPN b/c that’s where all my leagues are but am open to convincing arguments for Yahoo. Please comment your preference below.

No but when I clicked the link I had to login and then it downloaded the app and then I had to login again and somehow I ended up with 3 teams. At least 3 showed up on my account but I only saw 2 in the league so I dunno, can investigate on desktop later.

"rillweid - Now with more TRD and less TDI" (rillweid)
08/21/2017 at 15:57, STARS: 0
Sorry this is such a PITA. Here is quote from ESPN
“If you are getting an error or it says your league is full (even though it isn’t showing as full), your League Manager likely invited you via the web (desktop, laptop, etc.), which reserves your place in the league. If you are in the app and trying to accept the invite, your League Manager likely invited you via the web AND the app. The web overrides the app invite, so you will be sent the error message. Simply have your League Manager delete the web invite and only send it to you through the app. Or you can always just accept the invite through the web (desktop, laptop, etc.)“
Not sure where you are accepting the invite from, but this could be the problem. I can also send you an invite directly from email, but I don’t know a way to PM you or something securely.

For some reason I was having trouble signing in on Aug 20 when I did my live draft. I had to use my phone and the app to make picks. The website was acting all wonky on my laptop.
Not sure if the issue was on their end or mine.
I reset my password and logged back in tonight. So I see your posts and I responded.

I can’t find an email even in my junk mail so something must’ve gone on there. Probably some time after 7pm bst and before 10pm would work best for me. That would be 2pm-5pm depending where you are in the states. If no one can do that I’d understand and I’ll just manage with an autodrafted team. I’m pretty busy this weekend unfortunately.

08/30/2017 at 06:05, STARS: 0
I’m good with whatever the consensus decides. If I can’t be there for the draft, I can always autodraft.
Sunday morning would probably work best for me though.
As for the email you sent out, the only one I got from the league was your question on whether we should try to find another team or not. I never received one about draft times.

If it’s after 6pm BST and before 10pm BST (I’m up a bit later than that but obviously the draft can take a while) I’m fine with that for sure. Could maybe do a bit later actually because thatd only be 5pm for most of you guys in the states.

It’s not a holiday for me sadly so i wont be able to. Dont worry though I’ve set some auto draft preferences so I’ll at least get a usable team and will just have to try and make moves on the waiver wire to fill in weaknesses. It’s silly to mess up scheduling just on account of me.
