rhino mate i know u weren't in the elite group last yr but mate i won the comp last yr and as a group we decided i would set it up when the site is available

Hey now that's a good idea, lets start the draft on this thread?

I'm happy to help out, I've run plenty of them for the NFL fantasy comps, we can randomly generate the order and go from there...

 

[abpanther]

But what's the difference if we start the draft on this thread, then just upload the rosters onto the comp site once it's up and running?

Makes sense to me...

It's a crap idea.

Well because the idea was that people would be given 12-24hr time limits for each selection, at this stage that will be impossible now.

The problem is if we draft one week out, we have to then try to get everyone on the computer at the same time, which is always challenging, then people start whingeing when someone takes close to 12 hours to make a selection, which is bound to happen as everyone has different timetables and work schedules. We have over 200 selections to get through, it will take some time.

I don't see why it's a stupid idea, plenty of fantasy comps are run that way, just takes some organisational skills, but hey however you guys wanna run it is fine...

No it's not, it's very common actually...

I play nrlceo because it's the best fantasy comp around. If I wanted to play some sh*t "common" version I would.

 

[Rhino_NQ]

Sorry i brought it up now, sorry johns

 

[Johns Magic]

I just don't think it's got to that stage yet and until we hear from Mig again I think it's completely overboard

 

[abpanther]

You're a funny guy JM, like the NRLCEO site last season was first class.

And we would still be using that site anyway, we can just begin drafting rosters now.

But whatever, like I said, however you guys wanna run it is cool, like Rhino said it's just a suggestion...

 

[abpanther]

Good one Rhino

 

[Rhino_NQ]

when it gets to a week it may be time to panick, dont mind doin some late nights and staying home this weekend to get through it. Probably best as it will save me some cash for round 1

What was wrong with it last year after it got up and running?

Can you tell me what players are eligible for what positions yet?

How many kicker points has each player got?

The random draft on the site makes it all even out over the 25 rounds. Conducting your own first however many rounds will ruin that completely.

Mig will get back to us soon and let us know, and until he says anything it would be stupid to take matters into our own hands.

Yes I can, it's all already on the site on the players list, including kicker points.

Okay now seriously, this issue needs to be addressed becuase the idea of randomising the order for each round really is stupid, it is plainly not fair. Why not do what every other comp does (including professional comps and yes it is common but that's because it makes sense) and randomise the first round and then make it serpentine from then on (1st pick in round one picks 12th in round 2, picks 1st in round 3, etc.

Seriously randomising each round is terrible...

 

[Rhino_NQ]

Does it spit out the orders of all the rounds straight up? I can't remember

I do like your snaking order idea but I would prefer to set it that way through the site. I don't think it's time to get rash just yet but if Mig tells us it won't be ready for another week then I would be far more inclined to agree with you.
