Third Quarter Collapse Goes Fantasy

Brought to you by popular demand!
I'm proud to announce Third Quarter Collapse's first fantasy basketball extravaganza, where there will be not one, but TWO, leagues to appease 3QC'ers that prefer H2H or Roto formats. Both are set for 10 teams maximum. Both will be invitation-only, to recognize and reward regular community members but eventually, if more people want in, accommodations will be made and additional leagues will be created. In the end, it's all about being active and having fun.
Will there be league trophies/prize(s)? Yes, to be determined.
The rundown -
H2H league
Scoring Type: Head to Head Each Category
Teams in League: 12
Current Roster Size: 12
Total Starters: 6
Total On Bench: 6 (1 IR)
Scoring: Points, Steals, Rebounds, Blocks, Assists
Draft: October 25, 2009 (10:00 PM ET)
Roto league
Scoring Type: Rotisserie
Teams in League: 12
Current Roster Size: 12
Total Starters: 10
Total on Bench: 2 (1 IR)
Scoring: Points, Steals, Rebounds, Field Goal Percentage, Blocks, Assists, Three Pointers Made, Free Throw Percentage
Draft: October 25, 2009 (7:00 PM ET)
To join, please post your e-mail (and league preference) in the comments section. As previously mentioned, invitations will be sent out to frequent site visitors first, then everyone else second.
Thanks!

I'd be interested, but wouldn't be able to attend the live draft.
Maybe next year… sigh

I’m interested in the Roto league. I usually do H2H but I’ll try it.

I'll go ahead and start sending out e-mails.
For those that can’t make the Live draft, let me know a day and time that works best for you and maybe we can come to a compromise. I need to know ASAP that way I can make a change if necessary. Thanks a lot, everyone.

Just a heads up, I did a switch-a-roo with the draft times so please make note of that.

I have another draft at that time (7pm)
But the other is on Yahoo! So I should still be able to have them up at the same time, right?

Rotisserie, please. Thanks!
He's currently two-thirds man, one-third amazing. Which, let's face it, is still a pretty good ratio.

I’d prefer to be in the h2h, but I’d be fine with roto if there isn’t enough room.

So, I don't think I've ever posted before...
I may have once or twice. I read a lot, though — too much, some may say.
So, I understand if I don’t make the cut for a league.
But, now that I’m back home in Orlando, I assume I’ll have some more to say and will actually post once in a while.
…maybe.
so, anyway — if I’m so accepted, please let me know at MarcIsPDX@gmail.com
Thanks!!! And Hello if this really is my first post!

Never have I been able to come to terms
with the fact that there’s such a lousy term for an avid reader. Ha. Oh well.
What I lack in forums/comments skill, I make up for with conversation and charm.
Well, like I said, now that the ice has been broken, perhaps I’ll be more active!
Now, back to listen to the finishing touches get put on the Pacers (my least-favorite childhood team)…
P.S. Thanks! Keep up the good work. This site got me through all the time I’ve spent away from Orlando!

Excited for fantasy
What’s up everybody. Been quite a long time, they disabled commenting at work unfortunately. I’ve been checking every post and the comment section daily at work and can’t wait to get this season started! Hope you all have been well and I will make more of an attempt to comment on here nightly before the season starts. Bring it home Orlando!

Just a heads up, the H2H league is filled and the Roto league has 1 spot left.
For those that haven’t received an invitation, I’ll go ahead and make a new league in a day or two.

I prefer Roto

Is the TO missing from the categories because of Magic’s TO problems during preseason? Just kidding. This would be great fun, thanks.
As much as I admire Hedo, Michael Jordan of Turkey is either an insult to the GOAT or to Turkish Basketball.

Whichever format needs filling out, or, both?
I’m on UK time so may not be around for the draft but as long as I have a starting line up that looks like this:
PG: Chris Paul
SG: Kobe Bryant
SF: Lebron James
PF: Tim Duncan
C: Dwight Howard
I won’t complain. :)

I'm trying to register for the Roto
But ESPN has been having registration problems since yesterday, so I can’t make an account right now. I’ll keep trying though.
by bandrewg08 on Oct 20, 2009 1:45 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs
I might expand the leagues to 12 teams, but that's the most I'm willing to do.
I’m going to give today for those still trying to join and register, after that I’ll invite other people.
So if you got sent an invitation, please reply!

Can you resend my invitation?
It says I have an invite, but when I try to accept this invitation, it throws up an error saying there is no invite.

If I'm not too late...
I would sign up for a H2H league. As long as it does not impose on my XO Hoops Fantasy team. Stupid nostalgia killed me in that league for a few years now.

Since I expanded the leagues to 12 teams each, there's 1 spot open in each league.
