The Supercoach Draft Game (Read if involved/Vote on the new poll)

[Ringo]

Just some analysis

If we start at 9:00am on Saturday with 8 teams and 15 players and if everyone takes 5 minutes draft will take 10 hrs
(120 picks by 5 mins) Will shorten obviously if picks taken quickly. So worst case scenariou start at 9;00am and finish at 7:pm

or start at midday and finish by 10:00pm

If Starting at 6:00pm will finish at 4:00am which may be a little difficult for some coaches.

We are not going to please every one but I think the best time may be 9:00am and if announced people may be available and have any early night Friday ;D ;D
  As a compromise maybe start at 11:00am taking West into consideration. (8:00am Western Time),

Thanks Ringo. 9am it is - however if we have a protest, will consider 10am

^^  guys just because theres i.e. 3 minutes a pick etc. doesnt mean thats how long each pick will take..^^^
  Last year we did drafts within 2 hours.    It will never take 10 hours

Picks have got to be 90 seconds only. People should know their preferences before the draft. Even 60 seconds would be fine i reckon!

[Capper]

leave it at 5 mins, people will know who to pick and will be quick.

The later the picks the slower the picks

For League 1 (FisherSaints' League) I would prefer an earlier start as I've got my brother's 21st on that day.

It'll be up to you guys as a league to sort out your time.  :) PM them this and I'm sure you guys can work out a time.

I would change my vote from 6 to 9 ;D

League 1 guys I have been discussing later. Probably the 2nd or 9th of March. Means we can see how players go in first rounds of NAB Cup

That would make sense

Yup. Still reckon we can knock the draft over pretty quickly then. Picking a date/time now that we can book in  may be a good idea.

Guys, I'm definitely open to this as long as each league can agree on the starting date and time where everyone will be available. I guess 'booking' it now, roughly a month in advance, means that people know to keep that date/time clear to ensure they can draft.  :)

Prefer 10am Time Due to me undergoing Chemotherapy its for me to get up real earlier but i don't mind if it stays at 9pm i will do what i do with the Yahoo fantasy football comps  and preset which players  i want in order.The drafts there get 90 secs a pick are over within 2-3 hours.
