Geh. Fixed. Sorry to both Ryan and Henry. I blame it on getting only 4 hours of sleep last night (thanks to a 9-month-old who has decided that 4 am is a fine time to wake up and a 2-year-old who thinks 11 pm is too early for falling asleep).

Good freaking grief, people. STOP NOMINATING MONTE COOK! Twice in the thread, Ryan (who started the thread) has asked that we exclude those who previously worked on D&D... and mentioned Monte Cook by name as excluded from consideration. I love Monte's work as much as the next guy, but can we...

If Crothian reads as much as he posts on ENWorld, that is truly a compliment. ;)

What? Throwing Dice Games is actually releasing products again? On a semi-regular schedule? This is too *thunk* hi this is sigil's wife - what the heck did you guys do to him to make him faint dead away?

Ah, you are correct. I had to go back and re-parse your post to pick that up. (Emphasis in Morrus' quote above mine) Okay, I gotcha - when I first read that exchange, I read: "can we reference (off site pdf vendors) by name?" "For the moment, I'll say no." And I "full-stopped" there. That's...

Oddly enough, I changed my sig (by chance) a couple of days before the new policy came out. Lucky me. ;) Just a couple of thoughts here... 1. Publishers, in general, very much dislike to be told they can't write/say something. Remember the brouhaha about the "d20 Standards Clause" or...

Understood. I'll push it back until Tuesday (Oct 18, if I'm reading my watch right), and will set us as "ready" when I get into work in the morning (about 8:30 am Pacific). That gives everyone the weekend AND all of Monday to get things set up, but still gives us a week and a half or so before...

Some time after 2:08 pm Pacific (when I posted the announcement) so as to give everyone the full 72 hours (I don't want people to claim I gave them 71.5 and thereby jobbed them ;)).

He was in my top 5... now he's not in my top 5 (but I'm not saying where I *did* list him). --The Sigil

I don't, but it's those whom ENWorld won't let you PM or email. However, I found a 12th (an acquaintance from another basketball site I'm on), and I have "closed the league" by setting the max teams to 12. I will change the autodraft status to "Ready" on Thursday, October 13th - you probably...

I hit up via PM or Email everyone that I could who had played in a prior year but not signed up this year a couple weeks ago... that's when Kajamba Lion joined us.

The problem is that with 10 participants, everyone's team looks rather like an all-star team (consider that there are 150 starting players in the NBA and in a 10-team league, only the top 2/3 of those are even going to see significant use). With 12 participants, you usually have at least one or...

Quite a few, actually. But I want to wait until the weekend is over before I start asking you guys if I can "troll around" outside the ENWorld boards for takers. --The Sigil

Still no bites. :(

Well, my given name is "Spencer." I've been called "Spence" a couple of times, but I absolutely detest that and a withering look has always stopped any one person from repeating it. Growing up, when I was in the drug stores, and they had the "pencils with your name on it" or "mini-license...

Hmm... apparently even that isn't working great... we're still at 10. Here's to hoping some other folks will notice and join us! --The Sigil

Definitely will do that... though I did take the liberty of PMing and/or e-mailing those ENWorlders that I could who had participated in past years' games in an attempt to fill the league with the ENWorld crew - in the Off-Topic Forum, it's often hard to spot this thread...

I'm just curious... everyone who has read or seen the Harry Potter books/movies knows what Quidditch is. Classic "medieval-esque" usually seem to include footraces, jousting, arena combat, and archery contests - mostly weapons-oriented, though. I guess that's kind of like baseball or...

Well, I did put a link to the thread in my .sig, so hopefully that helps a little. We have 9 teams now, and over a month before the season starts. I hope we can find at least three more interested folks in that time. ;) --The Sigil

Sorry... I figured that posting the league ID and password were sufficient. :(
