Competitions Awesome 2016/2017 draft game selection thread - starts Sat Dec 17th

[FAITH]

i think if you know its your turn and you havent picked within the hour you should be skipped.
drugs should be allowed to pick and then kristof gets a fresh hour to take both his picks.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

I usually looooove rules on the run but we can't bring something in now.

Just add it to the list for next year

My idea for a way to access bacons players fairly

I will sit out for the purpose of this game and not draft.


Bacons players
Josh Kennedy (Sydney) 4 draft picks
Stefan Martin (Brisbane) 3 draft picks
Rory Lobb (GWS Giants) 3 draft picks
Steele Sidebottom (Collingwood) 2 draft picks
Nick Haynes (GWS Giants) 2 draft picks
Jack Martin (Gold Coast) 2 draft picks
David Armytage (St Kilda) 2 draft picks
Mitch Wallis (Western Bulldogs) 1 draft pick

Right the rules
Using draft picks only, teams may bid to access these players via a mini draft.

- To successfully bid, teams must submit a package of draft picks that match the draft pick value that has been allocated to each player.
- If 10 teams bid 4 draft picks, the team with the lowest combined value of draft picks will be awarded first pick. for eg. #244, #280, #412, #500, these picks add up to 1436 points.
- If you win a place in the draft you will only lose those draft picks if you decide to draft. You can pull out at any time and keep the bidded draft picks.
- If you win 1st@ selection, you do not have to select Josh Kennedy, you can select any of the players listed and you will only lose the draft pick value of that player.
- Players drafted will automatically be taken from the first draft pick bid in your bidding package
- all draft picks lost will be re allocated at the end of main draft excluding the pick used in the draft to pick up the player. for example #244 was the first pick so it will be used to draft the player while #280, #412 and #500 shifted to last in the draft order.
- You do not have to bid
- If only 1 player bids they get sole pick and every one else misses out.

I suggest we suspend the draft for 12 hours from 9pm until 9am to allow for bidding.

Note: If no one bids, these players will remain of limits for the remainder of the game.

Let me know ASAP

Wallis is still available, by the way. He wasn't actually drafted.

I've wondered how other competitors family and friends react when you tell them you're involved in an fantasy off season draft comp on a footy forum......

Picture the biggest eyeroll ever. ..

I just live with my brother. I've discussed my picks with him at times over the years.

Bzzzt

Rule violation by you two!

 

[adelaidecrows]

Wallis is still available, by the way. He wasn't actually drafted.

I just put him up because I think some people haven't drafted him because of the issues with Bacon. I agree he is up if everyone is happy.

No thanks.

 

[adelaidecrows]

No thanks.

And I thought you would be the least boring!

Is Kristof at a seven-course banquet?

 

[FAITH]

I usually looooove rules on the run but we can't bring something in now.

Just add it to the list for next year

similar rule existed in the past.
its been 3 hrs now go drugs

 

[I Lost My Keays]

Is Kristof at a seven-course banquet?

8 course.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Is the cut-off 8pm or 9pm?

 

[FAITH]

9pm

 

[hendo8888]

9pm

Pretty sure it's 8pm. But he's acknowledged his pick and replied multiple times, so that should preclude his curfew.
Especially when he knew exactly what time his pick was going to come up and still chose to do nothing about it.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

9pm

Danoz picked at 6:36pm

However technically Danoz' 3 hour window finished at 5:52pm

So does Kristof's window start at 5:52 or 6:36pm?

It's moot because I won't jump in and pick ahead of him.

[Mego Red]

Can't you slip away discreetly Kristof?

Eg excuse me, everyone. I just need to go and take a dump.

Alright, I'm back.

 

[Mego Red]

Kristof's missus has obviously activated a 'no gobbies' clause in regards to the draft game during dinner

Not far off ...

 

[Mego Red]

F*** off.

 

[Allefgib]

And I thought you would be the least boring!

Oh I'm big on creative rules. Trading and mid game shenanigans have never been a part of that.

 

[Mego Red]

After all that ...

I'll just take Leigh Montagna, thanks.

 

[Mego Red]

C'mon Carl, hurry up.

 

[Allefgib]

F*** off.

How about picking over nit picking?

 

[Hank93]

So much tension in this years game!
