BTS Community Moderator Posted December 20, 2022 Posted December 20, 2022 What’s on everyone’s wish list? Mine is SP and RP I’d move one of my RPs. Any one really, though prices vary. Looking for a CF and top 100 prospects
Laika Community Moderator Posted December 22, 2022 Author Posted December 22, 2022 Did we already run a pick lottery? Someone can do that if it has not been done And set up the draft room or whatever Maybe we do the new player draft in early Feb?

Jimcanuck Old-Timey Member Posted December 22, 2022 Posted December 22, 2022 Spanky knows how it works, I nominate him to do the lottery and draft setup.

BTS Community Moderator Posted December 23, 2022 Posted December 23, 2022 L54 were you considering the offer I sent you the other day, or just not interested at all?

Jimcanuck Old-Timey Member Posted January 3, 2023 Posted January 3, 2023 Draft start is Sunday Feb 12 at 6 pm (can be changed if needed) 12 hr pick windows If pick is missed during the window, autopick applies at the end of the window. This can also be changed if needed, but there really is no excuse for missing a pick or not setting up the autodraft feature if you will be away.

Auto pick needs to be turned off, and the pick just gets skipped.
Jimcanuck Old-Timey Member Posted January 3, 2023 Posted January 3, 2023 Auto pick needs to be turned off, and the pick just gets skipped. The problem with this is everyone else is waiting 12 hours every time that owner's pick comes up.
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted January 3, 2023 Posted January 3, 2023 The problem with this is everyone else is waiting 12 hours every time that owner's pick comes up. They’re stuck waiting the window either way..Windows also get halved each time a pick is missed.
Jimcanuck Old-Timey Member Posted January 3, 2023 Posted January 3, 2023 They’re stuck waiting the window either way..Windows also get halved each time a pick is missed. Let's hear other opinions. With the pick queue feature there is really is no excuse.
Laika Community Moderator Posted January 3, 2023 Author Posted January 3, 2023 Autopick is annoying / bad for various reasons We always just skip and halve future windows
AdamGreenwood Old-Timey Member Posted January 3, 2023 Posted January 3, 2023 Auto-pick is great as long as we have a commissioner is familiar with it, and knows how to undo things in case a mistake happens. I love that I can set a couple guys in the queue, and have it pick while I'm sound asleep, so I don't hold up the draft. If you don't set up autopick, then you still have your 12 hours to figure out your pick. It really only hurts people that take over 12 hours AND can't be bothered to make their picks on time.

If you don't set up autopick, then you still have your 12 hours to figure out your pick. It really only hurts people that take over 12 hours AND can't be bothered to make their picks on time. Things happen. Sometimes you set a dozen guys in your queue and they all get taken. Not everyone has time or desire to rank 100 guys in their queue. Autopick also just takes the top ranked player statwise for next year which is usually some guy that's not worth rostering, and is in no way considered a prospect.

Ok, each manager can set their own rules in the draft. If your queue is empty, it just waits the full 12 hours for you to make the pick. So, the only way it autodrafts a random is if you exhaust your full 12 hours without making a pick, and you don't put anyone in your queue. And generally during the first few rounds, if the commissioners will pause the draft if someone is about to miss a pick.
TheHurl Site Manager Posted January 4, 2023 Posted January 4, 2023 Let's hear other opinions. With the pick queue feature there is really is no excuse. translation, let's hear an opinion which matches mine. I've actually been incredibly quick with my picks in the past (even when I was in NWT and had no internet), but man it's tempting every year to use my entire window, just to hear the crying. We have a window, it's okay if someone has to use the entire thing. At the end of the draft everyone always seems to say, f*** that draft went faster than expected.

We have a window, it's okay if someone has to use the entire thing. At the end of the draft everyone always seems to say, f*** that draft went faster than expected. Nah I wanted to hear ideas. Anyway it's been revised so that autopick is never used. If a pick window is missed, the pick is skipped. If I recall correctly, if a pick is skipped and the owner comes in and wants to make the pick, a commish has to manually add the player. Commish can also manually skip a pick before the 12 hrs is up, if the window is to be halved. A lot of bending over backwards.....
