AFC Board Draft Game 2022/23 - Want To Play?

[WeeBlake]

Well looks like it will be a small roster this year. That means superteams!

Last year we did 34 picks, are people fine with that again? Especially with only 12 players we will probably find good picks at the end

This might be heresy, forgive me, but could we invite posters from other boards? Like, good ones? I wouldn’t know where to start, but one of you might?

It's always been open to anyone, but I think we'd preference Crows board members. But given we have probably up to 6 spots free, I don't see why others couldn't join

 

[Danger Zone]

Would be nice to get some new players in. Most years we have a couple.

 

[Crow_68]

Yep, in again.

Can I suggest a deadline day of Wednesday to nominate otherwise we just play with the total players we have?

 

[Mr MysteryGuest]

Making my long-awaited comeback.

Yeah I was thinking of starting probably around Thursday next week, unless people had other thoughts?

Would need the participant list finalized by Monday or so

The sooner we can start the better as we avoid the christmas slow down.

 

[safeandsound]

Yeah , jump in again if there is still time

 

[Scorpus]

Up to 15 participants now so that's a healthy number. Max 3 more spots available.

I'll give everyone until end of Monday to sign up.

Aiming to start Thursday, December 8th. Will draft up to 34 players.

Mostyn (the artist formerly known as Mego Red/Kristof) interested again?

Alright. I was trying to spend less time here - different name, all that.

But maybe it's a fool's errand.

Scorpus - I will jump back in, if there's a spot.

That is the reason you're called Mostyn and not Lessyn

All of a sudden, I’m feeling the pressure….

Yikes, you've gotten screwed with the randomizer over the years

Doesn't make much difference in the end though. Last 5 winners have come from draft spots 12, 13, 8, 2, 18 under the new scoring system

Joel Selwood probably a safe pick.

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

One day I'll get the double pick, one day...

Yeah, I'm aware that it makes a relatively small difference in the long run, I was the 13 after all. But I reckon given the choice, everyone prefers to pick earlier. Just having a whinge.
