Wasn’t the slugging % calc broken for projected stats in the draft center? Did that get fixed?

Is there a canonical list of the results from round 1 with all the tie-breakers sorted out?

My first thought is that the 70M theme will be extremely difficult.
Agreed....

I can already tell that the 120M theme is gonna take way too much time. But that's just me...I keep looking and looking trying to find something better.

$120M: 3x3=9
Choose 3 seasons and 3 franchises. Combine them so you have 9 unique teams. All 25 players must come from one of those 9 teams.

No more than 3 players per team are allowed and every team has to be represented at least once. So the only combinations are:

3-3-3-3-3-3-3-2-2 = 25
3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-1 = 25

Details
Seasons: All
DH: Yes
WW: No
AAA: No
Trades: No
Clones: No
Injuries: Turned On
Multi-team players: No restrictions (i.e., you can use partial or combined)
Ballpark: Must have been used by one of your 9 teams
300K Exception: Yes
Team Name: None
Division Alignment: Random
300K exception is on for this $120M theme but that contradicts the two available combinations. I’m assuming there is no 300K exception but can you verify?

100mil - how long between the time our fearless leader picks a season and the actual draft takes place?
The drafts will begin immediately after. They won't be on a clock unless one becomes necessary.

I will post one by tomorrow. The WIS standings page is correct on points (but, yes, tiebreakers will need to be done manually)

I was/am on the fence about how challenging it will be. If there is relative consensus after people do research, I will consider changing it.

I started on the 70M and felt it wasn't so hard so far. It might be that it's just impossible to get the 24th/25th players to fit, but it seems not absurd to date.

The 3*3 one does seem much harder, at least to convince yourself you haven't missed some really good option.

I feel we should have a 300k exception in the clone league and maybe a max of 5? lol
