do we have a proxy for beef?  he's not logged in right now

[dvldog]

in all seriousness, not enough can be said for fiightonusc managing his own team, plus the proxy picks and figuring out the best available player for GreatScott... for so long - this may be the longest draft, but it's the best job managing a draft

[fightonusc]

Thanks, I appreciate it. I'm modeling it after the CFL draft, actually, where dead players sometimes get drafted in the later rounds.

I second the kudos for usc.  An incredible job.  I know I couldn't do it.

Question about the league:  do we get to pick our colors for the uniforms and the players?

Thirding the kudos

[fightonusc]

Yeah, go ahead and post your preferred team colors and team names if you haven't already. It's optional, but I can tweak the ROM pretty easily.

[dvldog]

you want us to post it with our lineups on the draft page (the one with only one reply)?

Another Question:  Will everyone undrafted remain as Free Agents or is our roster of 16 set?

[TβG]

also you might want to decide how you'll handle the defense, such as changing the chance for errors, i don't know how you'll decide the number.  maybe which ever team you have most of your players from you have that default rbi rating, or we could make a league average and have all the teams be the same defensively.  

team colors:  white uni, and navy blue hats/trim
team name:  the OC

Another Question:  Will everyone undrafted remain as Free Agents or is our roster of 16 set?

I vote for free agents, although it'll depend on how much maintenance fightonusc wants to do with the ROM.

Team name "BeefMaster" (abbreviated "BM") - green skin, black hats, red unis.

Go ahead and post them here, that will be fine with me.

I miss these aliens.

Team name:  Poopydicks (Pd)

Uniforms:  black pants/shirt and brown helmet

Skin:  whitey

I'm off to work.  usc has my proxies.  Good luck to everyone.

[fightonusc]

The plan was to go with the undrafted being free agents. Basically, we'll have a weekly schedule of games (one game played every day). You'll have to make any roster changes by Monday, and all line-ups must be set the day before the game. Contact me to pick up any free agents (first come, first serve).

Unfortunately, it seems locked into the team that originally held that position in the ROM - i.e., if my team is where the Detroit Tigers would otherwise be, they are going to have the Tigers' error percentage.

I don't think it's going to play a huge role in the season, but I'll try to figure out some fair way to do this. Perhaps the person who drafted first should get the team with the highest error percentage? Or, the team with the most Tigers gets the Tigers spot, etc.? I'll figure something out.

[ultimate7]

I think drafting 1st was the worst position to be in

[fightonusc]

If you're the Clippers, then yes, it is...

Like I said, I'll work something out to mathematically decide this, then...

[TβG]

i thought that nughtwulf's editor could do it.  but i can't remember for sure
