when are we doing it?

[Ja$e]

I just did a casual rank and then saved and I can't find any option to change it?

 

[Prototype]

i like this idea of doing it person by person on the forum, starting asap.
ideally i'd like to do it closer to the start of the season so as to see how the players fare in the preseason, but at least we'd have our rosters set up in time.

Autopick is dodgey.. and takes too much effort especially with what, 14 managers? I like the forum draft better..

 

[mattyj]

yeh i reckon a forum draftwould be good..

 

[Matt26]

Forum draft would suit me......I'm guessing that once the draft order was determined we would all have our picks in number order and choose which ever players would be available at the time?

Sounds good by me.....lets get it roilling!!

I'm happy to help out if its required!

Cheers
Matt

Yeah forum draft.. we just have to determine order.. then pick 1 selects.. (LeBron of course) and then pick 2.. etc. Then Kyle will enter the players in yahoo once each team has 14.

i hope i end up with a better draft position than last year!

 

[Funkadelic]

Thats straight forward Carlos. Makes the most sense right now.
So...draft order will be according to reverse alphabetical first names?

i wanna see ping pong balls dammit!

Sounds great (and fair) Carlos...

Here is another link to a random number generator....

Order generator

We could give each team manager or team a number (1 through 16) and then run this generator based on the amount of teams entered.

The result would be the draft order.

So if i was Team #11 and then the generator I ran I would be draft pick number #2 (based on the random number generator below.)

9
11
14
7
3
1
5
8
16
4
12
10
13
2
15
6

Cheers

if done as above, i'd like to see the positioning announced one by one in reverse order, that'd be cool

nice anticipation for the top spots!

 

[mattyj]

i think i was #9 right matt?

I'm happy with a forum draft using a Random number generator.
Just let me know The Time and Date.

 

[Funkadelic]

Ok, so now how do we decide who's team is which number..?

 

[Prototype]

leave that to the commish

 

[Ryanm2117]

Everyone just pick a number between 1 and 16 first in best dressed.

If so I'll take #3

In that case, I'll take 5.





Otherwise, Kyle can come up with the numbers. Thats pretty simple and unbiased.

 

[Matt26]

We could just use the order that the teams are showing up in the Yahoo league? That order is as follows:

1.Ruckers
2. Matt's All Stars
3. Amsterdam Spliffs
4. Isotopes
5. vladlevinsky
6. Bogut's picks
7. Magic
8. Starks Goes Baseline
9. Funk Squad
10. Tha Big Dogs
11. MIAMI FOR 2
12. Darko's Destroyers
13. Kidd's
14. JayC
15. Sky Pie
16. Magicman's Dreamteam

 

[Funkadelic]

Yea, easy. I didn't think of that.

So now we're pretty much set.

 

[Ryanm2117]

Yeah that's fine with me.
Unless 3 gets drawn first#-o
