The Draft is Open for Business!

Post by elligator » Tue May 04, 2010 12:59 am

You can find the draft in statslab!

In order to facilitate this extra long draft, we have pushed Friday's sim back to Monday, to give us the better part of a week to get the draft done.

From right now, until Wednesday 8AM, there will be open drafting, with no time limits.

Beginning on Wednesday morning, whatever remains to be drafted of Rounds 1 & 2 will be completed with stable 2 hr clock. For those rounds, you will know the exact time window in which your pick needs to be made. If we get a ahead of the draft clock, we will reset the windows at the beginning of the next day. In other words, if the draft clock is on pick 12 of the 1st round, but we have actually already picked through pick 16. Then the next morning will start with pick 17 on the clock. So, check the draft each night or morning to get your draft pick time.

Rounds 3 & 4 will still be on a 2hr clock, but it will reset with every pick, meaning that you will need to check periodically to see how much your draft window has moved up. Rounds 5+ will be on a similar 1hr clock, resetting with every pick.

If you know you won't be able to pick during your slot, make a list and turn on the auto draft from list box. If you do not a) have a list, and b) check the auto-draft from list box, then c) the computer will pick for you...and it loves MR. If you plan to make your pick in person, do NOT check the auto-draft from list box, as it will pick before you get a chance.

Any questions, comments, post them here.

To help us poor time zone travellers, could you please give a time zone as well as a time? So I can try and judge how I relate to you

I believe we're working off of US Central time.

All times in MBBA are central. Sorry for any confusion.

So, does it say in StatsLab when the next pick is due? I forget.
