Master Draft League FULL! Topic

Welcome to the Master Draft League!

This is the 2nd annual draft by positon league where owners in each round draft the same position. for example, let's say in round 1, all owners have to draft a pg, and then on the turn-around (round 2) snaking back up the draft board, all owners have to select a sg, then a sf, and so forth until all 5 positions are filled. The order of the draft positions will be randomly drawn after 18 owners have signed up.

Rules:

Round 6 and 7, every owner selects a bench player (at any position) who's minutes cannot exceed 2600.

The remaining 5 players on your team are NOT exclusive. owners select these bench players (at any position) who's minutes cannot exceed 1500.

Other Rules:

1. owner chooses what draft slot he'd like before the draft starts (first come first served), though it really doesn't matter. maybe draft slot no. 12 is the best, i don't know.

2. cap is set at 47 mil

3. no rooks, ww or clones

4. the order in which we select a pg-sg-sf-pf-c will be determined randomly (tbd). it could look something like this: pf-1st, pg-2nd, c-3rd, etc.

5. when drafting a player for a specific position, he has to be at least 100% eligible at that position (sure, u could draft a magic for your PF position). where u play magic would be entirely up to u.

6. a forum would be set up to discuss the ongoing draft (similar to ones we use in the ncih-funk52 and the odl).

7. after 8 owners have signed up and chosen their draft slots, i will then choose mine.

NOTE: with a 47 mil cap, you'll need to keep close track of your mins when drafting. this won't be as easy as you might think and will find yourself drafting players u might normally not use. gl!

I live in china and currently have a heavy teaching load this term, so i would like to co-commish this league with longtallbrad or empdenied who have offered suggestions and their help. a co-commish would handle all usa day time hours during the actual draft while i would handle all after hours. this would be a 24 hour co-commished league.

i would reserve the right to have final say on any disputes or problems that may arise.

ALSO, i am in favor of randomly selecting the order of the positions after everyone has selected their draft slot. however, the draft position order in the last league was a pretty good one. we lucked out. it was 1-SF  2-SG  3-PG  4-PF  5-C. i wouldn't mind keeping it the same way, but it would place more importance on the owner signing up and quickly choosing their draft slots. perhaps a random selection of draft positions would be both fairer and be more interesting. i welcome any thoughts.

I'm definitely in again.  scud, I'm happy to help with commish duties.  There will be a few days during the next month where I'm off-line so I could make sure emp or someone is lined up to help keep the trains running during those days.

I like the idea of randomizing the order in which positions are drafted...and am also fine with keeping it the way it was.  

Draft slot #3 served me well last time, so I'll start there again.

It's a deal!

That's 6 already, with 18 to go.  To anyone who didn't participate in the first edition, this league is a very good time.  The draft is a serious challenge and requires some strategizing, given the fact that many monster players are 100% at multiple positions.
1/5/2011 2:48 PM
wow... 6 in already! thanks brad for co-piloting. appreciate your help. and thanks emp for your help too. gary's in, haha. great! sappy and mikee1, too. welcome fishbait!
