<{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>idk how to play</div>Your goal is to get the best lineup on the field every day, since the better your players perform in real-life games, the more value they bring to your fantasy team.And, while you sit back and watch your team progress through the season, we do all the hard work of gathering statistics, computing point totals and updating standings.In our league, your team will square off in a weekly matchup against another manager's team to see who can compile the best stats across a number of different categories.A new weekly matchup begins every Monday and will consist of a set number of games based on your league's statistical categories. Each stat category counts as one game, with the win going to the team that finishes the week with the highest total in that category (the cumulative total after each Sunday's games).So, if in a given week, your team hits more home runs than your opponent's, you would be credited with a victory. However, if your opponent's team ended the week with more saves than your team, you would be charged with a loss. If the two teams end up tied in a given category, each will receive credit for a tied game.This weekly win-loss total will be added to a cumulative season record, which will be used to determine standings and playoff seedings. These standings will be based on your team's overall winning percentage, which is calculated by taking your win total and adding 1/2 of your tie total and dividing the sum by the total number of games your team has played.In our league, the goal is to have your team compile a better win-loss record than all of the other squads in your league. Each week, you'll square off against another team in your league—set a lineup based on league requirements and aim to have your players compile the best stats in each of your stat categories. Your stats are tallied on a weekly basis, with each stat category either counting as a game. (See the Head-to-Head League section for more details). The team with the best record at the end of the year wins the regular season championship. However, teams then participate in league playoffs to determine the overall league champion.The better your players perform in real-life games, the more points they earn for your team.DRAFTYou'll need a Java-enabled browser in order to participate.

http://drafttester.fantasysports.yahoo.com.../testdraft.htmlPlease arrive 10 minutes ahead of your scheduled time as the draft will start promptly and may go rapidly if only a few managers are logged in.Depending on the speed of your Internet connection, it may take up to five minutes for the draft applet to load into your browser. If you use AOL as your ISP or access the Web from behind a firewall (ask your system administrator), you may be unable to participate in a live draft.During the draft, you'll see a number of indicators when it is your turn to draft. Your team name will appear in the yellow box in the upper left corner of the screen, your team icon will turn yellow, and the player selection box will turn yellow.To draft a player:1. Go to your league page and select "Enter Live Draft."2. Select a name from the list on the left side of the screen.3. When the chosen name appears in the draft box, click the "Draft" button.You have 90 seconds to select a player. Once you click the "Draft" button, you cannot undraft a player, even if there is time left in your allotted 90-second selection period.If you do not draft within the allotted time, the computer will automatically give you a player based on your queued list, pre-draft rankings, or our Autopick Draft default ratings, in that priority order.I can help you with the draft stuff if you go on AIM during it. BTW, did that help? lol
If you guys are doing 10 teams, count me out. If we all agree on 12, I'll start it up and go along with things like I was going to before this new league was started.
