| 2013 League Survey |
2:32 AM ET on 1/3/13 by Jay Soester |
In a throw back to the earlier days of the league, I've put together a survey that I hope everyone will participate in. I've set up a database to catch the submissions to make determining the results (and subsequently, announcing them) a lot easier.
The sections with a light blue header and the section titled, "Membership Levels" are incredibly important (and the mini-section in between).
You can submit the survey again after the first time, simply use the same password. If you have any questions feel free to reply to this thread.
I pray to get a newsletter out Thursday before it's too late for Fantasy Golf, but I'm not remotely optimistic.
The first deadline of the Fantasy Golf season is 5 AM on Friday (roughly 26.5 hours away as I type this). If you're not already in one of our groups, please join: ID- 829/Password- 123456. Don't forget about NFL Playoffs Pickem and Fantasy NFL Playoffs as well.

| ASASFL 2011-2012 Championship Results |
11:52 PM ET on 10/20/12 by Jay Soester |
With the Fantasy Baseball results updated, the 2011-2012 ASASFL Champions can be announced.
Champions League:
Anders Nilsson defended his championship with 234 points, 18 less than his winning total from last season. Brad Wilson finished second, eight points back. That's a two point increase over last season's winning margin. Dave Berrong rounded out the podium with 222 points. Brad Duff (212) and Greg Krause (203) were the rest of the top five. Heading into baseball, Berrong and Nilsson were tied for first with 151 points and Wilson was in third with 150 points. Nilsson's 83 points from baseball gave him the championship.
Super League:
Nick Hall won the third edition of the Super League thanks to his clean sweep of Fantasy Baseball. He came into the final game in third place, five points behind both Dan Haak and Matt Humpal, but ended up with 250 points, 13 more than Humpal in second place. Tyson Hester rounded out the podium thanks to having performed second best in Fantasy Baseball. He jumped up to 226 points from a tie for fourth place before the game. Doug Eden jumped from seventh place to fourth place while Dan Haak's second worst score in Fantasy Baseball dropped him to fifth place.
Third League:
Dave Berrong overcame the biggest deficit before the final game this season to win the Third League. He trailed Nathan Susanto 206-183 before sweeping the regular season of Fantasy Baseball and winding up with 265 points. Brad Wilson was in fourth place, 28 points behind Berrong and 51 behind the leader heading into Fantasy Baseball, but finished in a distant second with 234 points, scoring three less than Berrong for Fantasy Baseball. Aaron Freeman was third, a point behind Berrong, before the final game and finished third after it with 226 points. Nathan Susanto fell to fourth, with 224 points, after the final game from the lead before it. Anders Nilsson rounded out the top five before and after the final game.
Hopefully the ASASFL leagues return sooner than later, but congrats to those who earned endearing bragging rights.

| ASASFL Hiatus |
5:53 PM ET on 8/25/12 by Jay Soester |
I'd imagine most of those affected realized this by now, but the ASASFL leagues will be going on hiatus for the coming season.
I made the decision back in June for a few reasons.
-I need to decrease my current workload in order to work on progressing the league in other ways while my available time is shrinking as is.
-I'm under the impression that the leagues may have become a burden to those that qualify for two of the three leagues on top of the leagues for the main competition.
-There is some redundancy between the Champions League & Keeper Leagues Premier Division as the best tend to be in both.
-My goal was always to create a reward for qualifying and/or winning the leagues, be it monetary or simple trophy. Unfortunately, the league finances have never allowed me to do that. Once that's possible, I'll likely revive the leagues, though they'll likely be 12 team leagues at most.
With the Third League no longer around to reward those that accumulated the most bonus points in a season, I'll now be creating a late league in each draft game. The top 15-20 in the most relevant standings (either the prior season or the current season) will be invited to have a second team in the main competition, on a first-come-first-serve basis. The draft will always be on a different day and time than any of the leagues originally announced. With my time limited, I need as much help as I can get and will therefore be trying to place an added importance on bonus points.
Those that would qualify each season will still be acknowledged even if the leagues don't come to be.
2012-2013 Qualifiers:
Champions League: Jay Soester, Brad Duff, Nathan Susanto, Anders Nilsson, Brad Wilson, Mark Yothers, Aaron Freeman, Russ Goatcher, Michael Lytle, Robert Flatt, Matt Humpal, Robert Boyce, Dave Berrong & Jeffery Murowsky
Super League: Greg Krause, Brian Secord, Tyson Hester, David Cords, Nick Hall, Mike Brekke, Tom Vobejda, Kevin Cheek, Dario Ambrozewiez, Chris Wanned, Matthew Hardman, Don Greenslate, Kevin Whorton & Susan Gantz
Third League: Jay Soester, Brad Wilson, Andrew Senger, Don Greenslate, Nathan Susanto, Anders Nilsson, Kevin Whorton, David Cords, Nick Hall, Patrick Cooley, Dave Berrong, Michael Byrd Sr., Brad Duff & Aaron Freeman.
I anticipate setting up the late league for those that qualify in the next 48 hours. Watch your inbox.

The Champions League's draft order is determined by a draft of its own with the order in which you can select your pick being based on the championship standings from the 2010-2011 season. I need every member who doesn't want the best spot available to them to give me the draft picks they'd like before Wednesday, ET.
Tentative Start Dates:
Champions League: Sunday, February 26th at 8 PM ET
Super League: Friday, February 24th at 12 AM ET

Tentative Start Dates:
Champions League: Thursday, December 8th at 10 PM ET.
Super League: Saturday, December 10th at 12 AM ET.
Third League: Tuesday, December 6th at 8 PM ET.
Please note that the draft start times are different based on my new personal schedule. If a draft starts at midnight, you'll need to be ready the night prior to the date listed. You should be able to perform all draft tasks aside from picking and those associated with the default list (until the Fantasy Basketball Drafts Assignment is completed). Admittedly, I'm too busy to test the actual picking mechanisms to verify there were no hiccups in adjusting files for the new season. Unfortunately, the Third League may become a de facto test as a result.
The last I've seen had free agency starting on December 9th, unfortunately that's just over two weeks before the season begins and I always reserve at least two weeks for drafts. With basketball having the shortest drafts, I'm making some exception, but that will have to lean toward the Keeper League drafts. I reserve the right to alter time limits as the draft progress to ensure it finishes on time.
I hope to send the information and sort out a time frame for the Keeper Leagues within the next two hours or Tuesday evening/night. If you're interested in a Keeper Leagues Fantasy Basketball team, place a bid as soon as possible, teams are likely to be given out by this coming weekend. I anticipate somewhere around five teams being available.

With the Fantasy Baseball results updated, the 2010-2011 ASASFL Champions can be announced.
Champions League:
Anders Nilsson becomes the Champions League champ after nearly letting a 29 point lead heading into Fantasy Baseball slip away. Jay Soester finished second, six points back, thanks to earning the most points in baseball and closing to within six points of Nilsson as a result. He was in third and trailed by 41 points heading into the final game. Nathan Susanto jumped from fifth to third thanks to a solid baseball performance to round out the podium. Brad Wilson and Mike Miles rounded out the top five.
Super League:
David Synychak had a 14 points lead heading into Fantasy Baseball and came out with a 27 point victory to become the Super League champion. Ed Peck outperformed everyone else in the final game of the season to leap from fifth to second. Kevin Cheek finished in third by a single point ahead of Greg Krause with Tom Buske rounding out the top five.
Third League:
Brad Wilson was the only champion to overtake someone in the final game. He trailed Mike Miles by 12 points before scoring the second most points in Fantasy Baseball to become the Third League champion. Anders Nilsson scored the most points for the final game to move into second place while Miles fell to third. Nick Hall & Nathan Susanto finished off the top five.
