The question that must go hand in hand with this is... how long will it take to draft:
1) IF we have 10 teams
2) IF we have 12 teams
Obviously having 12 teams will take longer... but how much longer? And depending on how long it will take... we got to count back from the start of the season and determine a finalized date to ensure we get the draft done!
Of course I am likely pointing out the obvious!

And we actually started February 24 last year and finished on March 12. So I would say as long as we start in early March then we are good.
Are there currently 2 NOT re-joining as there are 12 in at the moment.
Can we set a time frame on when we confirm the number of teams? We're going into the last week of February now and we'll need to start the draft in the first week of March.
My vote is that we stick with 10 teams if there is no other interest already, lock the settings in and decide on a draft start date.
Thoughts?
I'm good with finalizing it sooner rather than later.

I'd suggest starting by Friday 28th? We could maybe get a round or 2 in by end of weekend when it's understandably 'slower' due to weekends.
I wonder if that could be a bit soon, but wouldn't object if that's what everyone wants. I do think we need to start next week (w/b March 2nd) at the latest, though, whenever the first person is ready, to hopefully get off and running before that weekend.
Heads up to all - I'm away the weekend of March 6-8 and not sure of my online availability.
I'll be in the Dominican from the 21st to 28th of March. My bubba mug will be full, and so will I. Limited internet while I'm there.

Yep I agree on getting it all finalized. I had about 4-5 people say they weren't interested so I think we are stuck at 10.
And ya as usual if you're away during "draft time" we will either hope for a list or just wait it out.
