I convinced someone to take my shift on the 20th, so I’m good for the draft now

Re: Phx-Suns.net Vet League is up and running
Since we have the draft coming up in less than 24 hours, I thought I'd give a run down of our league rules for reference.
Good luck to everyone!
- This is an 8-category (no turnovers), head-to-head league.
- Managers may select a maximum of 2 players to keep for the next season, but no player may be kept for more than three consecutive seasons by the same manager.
- There is a penalty for keeping a player. The penalty is drafting them one round earlier than they were taken in the previous season. Free agents who are selected as keepers use a 7th round pick in the next years draft.
- Players selected in the first round cannot be selected as a keeper.
- Each team has an IR spot on their roster, but that is controlled using the Yahoo IR designation. Players can only be put in the IR spot on your roster if Yahoo gives them the IR designation. Something to keep in mind during the draft or with FA pickups.
- Each manager selects their draft position based on the previous seasons final standings with this priority:
7th Place Finisher
8th Place
9th Place
10th Place
11th Place
12th Place
6th Place
5th Place
4th Place
3rd Place
2nd Place
1st Place
Good luck to everyone!

Re: Phx-Suns.net Vet League is up and running
I have a question. If I hold onto a player for two years and trade him at the start of the third season to someone else, can that other team keep him for two more seasons?Flagrant Fowl wrote: ↑Sun Dec 06, 2020 9:57 pmLeague Reminders and Notes
- A player cannot be retained for more than three consecutive seasons by the same manager. Next season (2021-22) will be the last in which a player drafted for the 2019-20 season can be kept on your roster.
- Draft picks and keepers are trade eligible! Carry out negotiations however you'd like, but post any deals made in this thread for the whole league to see.
Also, if anybody wants the #2 pick in the first round please talk to me.

Re: Phx-Suns.net Vet League is up and running
Yes. In theory, a player could be kept every season if they are continuously traded.pickle wrote: ↑Sat Dec 19, 2020 10:39 pmI have a question.

I'll also add this for clarity. It doesn't matter if a player is on a roster for one day or one whole season, it still counts as one of the three seasons they are eligible to be kept.

Re: Phx-Suns.net Vet League is up and running
Thanks for the quick response FF. Just to clarify, I can keep a player twice though, right? So take Coby White for instance, I should be allowed to keep him again next season, for a 12th rounder, but will not be allowed to keep him again thereafter; but if I trade him to someone else next year, that new team should get to keep him two more years, at progressing draft rounds, right?

Re: Phx-Suns.net Vet League is up and running
One more thing I should add. I don't exactly know how Yahoo handles the keeper selections during the draft. They're set up and designated properly, but I don't know if Yahoo will make the pick for the correct player at the right time, if that pick will be skipped and the keeper player automatically added later, or if we have to manually select our keepers at the right pick. If someone knows how it works, please let us know.
In the worst case scenario I'll just pause the draft and fix any mistakes. Also, for those who are joining the live draft. Let me know ASAP if you mistakenly pick the wrong player, as I think I can pause and fix it. Of course this is under the assumption that you notify us of your mistake before the next manager makes their selection. I think we had this come up last year with Kyrie Irving and Devin Booker.

Re: Phx-Suns.net Vet League is up and running
I just want to say that Yahoo's pre-ranking platform is the absolute, fucking worst.
Re: Phx-Suns.net Vet League is up and running
Once the draft starts, the keeper picks should already be in the draft results tab at their designated round/selection.Flagrant Fowl wrote: ↑Sat Dec 19, 2020 11:31 pmOne more thing I should add.

Re: Phx-Suns.net Vet League is up and running
Yeah, Yahoo isn't great. It's better than ESPN, but still not the best option.
I'd definitely be open to changing the host next season, but I think the majority of members prefer to keep things as they've been.

Re: Phx-Suns.net Vet League is up and running
Thanks. So I guess that means Yahoo will automatically jump to the next pick when a keeper pick comes up? What I mean is the manager doesn't take any action when a keeper is being selected at the designated pick.Gladiator wrote: ↑Sun Dec 20, 2020 12:39 amOnce the draft starts, the keeper picks should already be in the draft results tab at their designated round/selection.Flagrant Fowl wrote: ↑Sat Dec 19, 2020 11:31 pmOne more thing I should add.

Re: Phx-Suns.net Vet League is up and running
That’s the way it should work, yes. It just skips to the next ‘live’ pick.Flagrant Fowl wrote: ↑Sun Dec 20, 2020 1:14 amThanks.

And as for Yahoo, I think it’s pretty good generally. It’s just the pre-draft rankings setup is a bit clunky.
