Is there a suggested time period to do a draft? Thinking about making a league before baseball season starts? Does this mean we would be drafting for 2020-2021 NBA (current upcoming playoffs) or next year?
Now is the best time — I'd say the cutoff is trying to get your draft in before the NCAA tournament starts in mid-March. All the drafts on the site this year will include this year's results, so the 2020-2021 NBA season. In the future it might be customizable whether you choose the following year's season and all of that, but it's just not something we have the capacity for right now.
Does everyone have to have Twitter accounts or can I sign people up on email? I want to set one up with my parents but they definitely do not have Twitter and are not interested in making one haha!
Unfortunately Twitter is the only login process we have right now. I know some people who did anonymous accounts with fake names for this, but obviously that's not for everyone. Certainly we'll try to make it more accessible in the future.
So a “season” is one calendar year? Or until all of your chosen sports’ seasons are completed, I guess?
Yep, that's right. Typically, it runs through the following year's Super Bowl.

Sounds like an interesting concept! Is there a cost to setting up an omnifantasy league?
Nope, completely free
