Shroomery Fantasy Baseball League

Hey guys. Here goes. I'm making us the Shroomery baseball league we've been looking forward to, and I'm going to do it through Yahoo's interface so it will be free of charge.
1. OneMoreRobot3021 - Rickety Robots 2. Ripple - Ripple's Clippers 3. Deadmaker - Deadmakers 4. lowdominion - Ted's Frozen Heads 5. kilroy69 - Kilroys Killers 6. ifallapart - Opiated Outfield 7. mattzdope - NY Shrapnels 8. Cowgold - Stones 9. lysergicide - The Zeppelins 10. DeepBlue42 - Sedated Sluggers 11. Madtowntripper - Thompson's HunterS 12. danamine - Drunken Maniacs 13. Nashbar - Twin City Tripper 14. AislingGheal - AislingGheal Arcs 15. Civic - Civic 16. KingoftheThing - Your Mom 17. muse_sick - Heroin Miners 18. OHSBrave06 - OHSBrave 19. i_rage_against - Ragey's Runners 20. Yarry - Rusty Trombones
If you don't respond within a certain timeframe, you're out, and Yarry or Stein are in.
Here's what I need you to tell me in this thread:
Do you want an automated draft (boooo) or a live draft (yay!!!)
What day would we do the live draft? I propose Saturday, March 18th, at 2 PM EST.
Scoring will be Head-to-Head. Rather than swithc up your lineup every single day, you will be choosing a lineup for an entire week. If you guys would rather do daily updates, please let me know, but I think we'd be better off in weekly Head-to-Head matchups.

I'm for a LIVE draft for sure, auto drafts always suck. March 18th is fine by me as well, you guys (and gals) will have a distinct advantage on me as I will certainly be dealing with an enormous St. Pat's Day hangover

it's going to be hard to get that many people together for a live draft!
I'll go with either but I'm thinking automated may be less of a headache?

You can pre-rank players so that in case you can't make it for a live draft, your picks will be automated within the system. That way it stays fair. People who think they might not make it though, well have to put in a bunch of work in making their picks in advance.
I think a live draft is just a more fun way of doing it than automated.

Maybe the live draft should be a little later around 7 or 8pm for people that may be at work around 2pm?
PS. NY Shrapnels are taking the crown.

Yeah it's a different layout than the CBS NFL one but after a few long days at work with nothing to do but look at it, we'll all get the hang of it. 
Rickety Robots...I'm gonna only draft players 35 years or older. 
Not really. P.S.

Seems like we don't get player ratings directly from the site?
We have to do our own research

I'm definately in. I'm open for a live draft or automated. I'm gonna have to do some reading up because I'm not really sure how it works. The 18th is good for me.
