Thanks much!

I've seen (from this year's Finger Lakes Regional FF thread) that people sign up, and pick teams.. but what is the outcome?

I'm with Elgin on this one, can someone please explain.

[Levin571]

You pick 3 teams (based on a draft order that will be put out later), a possible prize is chosen like rep or shirts, then you watch the competition. Two points for each win your teams collect, 1 for a tie, 0 for a loss.

If you want to later you can send in a list of what teams you want but it all depends on the draft order if you actually get those teams.

Also (gonna take a vote here) there can be the idea that you can't pick your own team but you may trade with someone else for it (remember all trades go through me or Steve Howland)

If you want to sent in a list of the teams you want (like 1-20) to me in case you won't be here for drafting time that is alright though i cannot assure you'll get your top choices (if picked by someone before you in the drafting order)

as a note, you cannot pick your own team unless no other choice remains

We are done with picking, trades will be open until 5 P.M. EST on Monday March 7, 2005.I guess no one wanted to trade since the window is closed.
(and it's a good thing someone closed the window, since it is snowing again here in CT :rolleyes: )

Good Luck Everyone!
