EWB Draft-Style Fantasy Premier League 2014-15 (Berober's League)

[Jam]

Is this an open draft where anyone can be picked in any order, or will it work say we all pick goalkeepers, then defenders etc

[Berober]

Any order, pick whoever you want when it's your turn. Heck, you could pick Tom Cleverley with the #1 pick if you're feeling stupidbold

Just in case he doesn't read the other thread.. SDM, make some room in your inbox, please!

[Berober]

So, thanks to the wonderful random.org/lists, we have our draft order! Don't forget to sign up, but you have until we finish the draft to do so, since that's when I need to input the teams into the website. The draft order is...

• Rafa
• Dan
• Jimmy
• Cymru
• 9 to 5
• Jam
• DavidMarrio
• Gorka
• Benkid
• Berober

Let Rafa go first, we all know he's going to be picking Tiote.

Okay, so rafa is up first. Since it's unfair to start the draft until he knows we've begun, the clock will start with Rafa's first pick. After that, we're going with a 24 hour pick time for the first two rounds, then 12 hours per pick for the first 11. After that, we'll drop it down to however quickly we have left for the remaining 5 bench picks.

Don't forget, we're going snake-style, so I will be picking #10 and then #11, followed by Benkid with pick #12 until we get back to Rafa, where he will have picks #20 and #21, etc...

The lights are on...

And away we go!

[9 to 5]

Hurry up Rafa!

[Gorka]

Looks like someone is getting Tiote by default.

[Rafael]

Oh hey. Rafa was at school.

Where do I see the draft?

You just post the players names you want in the thread, there's a post on the first page which has general newspaper rankings for players if you need it.

[Rafael]

Ok, so now I have to wait until the #20 pick right?

[Berober]

Nah.

Since it's unfair to start the draft until he knows we've begun, the clock will start with Rafa's first pick.

So the draft starts when you pick your first player. But from hereon, if you miss the deadline, you can still pick, but so can the next person on the clock.

[9 to 5]

Come the chuff on Rafa!

[Rafael]

#1 Pick is an Ivory Coast midfielder. Cheick Tioté Yaya Touré.

[9 to 5]

From the years of dealing with board drafts, I find it an absolute necessity to PM whoever is up next. It'll make things smoother.

[Berober]

Also, I believe I am still needing Dan and Niner ( ) to join on the league site, so get to it!

[Berober]

Also, I believe I've added everyone's team names correctly in the first post, but please check, I've only got what you signed up with to be certain

[9 to 5]

Finally signed up, Lancashire Heat will burn everyone up!

[Jimmy]

Am I right in thinking I'm up because it's been 12 hours?

Nop, after round 2 (not pick 2), it goes to 12 hours.

[Dan]

I joined. Broke my phone and was at a barbecue last night. Just trying to figure out how to make a pick.

[Jimmy]

By posting in here, if that's what you meant?
