no point in having a draft without a discussion thread

deadringer · 05-12-2008, 01:56 PM

props on the beckenbauer pick grand...would have picked him, but ever since we decided to do a draft i knew i was going yashin with the first pick, so i wasnt about to change it...

Sounds like Beckenbauer was a favorite for all.

Btw, are we doing a round robin draft or keeping the same order in every round? I kinda like keeping the same order.

i was thinking a snake order, it's the most fair, but i know you would like to pick first in every round

Obviously I have a little bias. A snake order sounds fine, though. Let's do that.

the draft order reverses each round...so since paulie had the first pick of the first round, he'll have the last pick of the second round and the first pick of the third round...

I always liked round robin because that way everyone gets to have at least one first pick in each round.

The Turk · 05-12-2008, 03:03 PM

Guys I can only stay online for another half hour or so than I won't be around for about 10-11 hours should I pm my pick to someone?

You can PM it to me, if you want. I won't open the PM until it's your turn, you have my word.

JetsFan2012 · 05-12-2008, 03:12 PM

We're getting down to the end of Round 1, we need to decide what draft arrangement we'll follow -- round robin or snake?

Try to do enough so that we can wrap around today. After you go, I make 2 picks, then you go again, so you should probably send your top 6 choices or so.

So I guess we're doing snake. Works for me.

That's right, Turk, send me another PM with another pick, because you'll be coming up soon in Round 2.

The Turk · 05-12-2008, 03:18 PM

I just sent Paulie my first pick but I'm going to try to wait for Bay Ridge jet a little longer, if he doesn't show I'll send Paulie my next pick as well.

Batmans A Scientist · 05-12-2008, 03:29 PM

Quick question, can I draft a guy that never played in a World Cup?

Because of circumstance, not age
