Peter Jenkins 2,120 Report post Posted January 20, 2018 How the draft will work - Each Captain will have 90 secs to submit a draft pick (if they have not already submitted an email to me containing their draft order). Submit your draft order to me as a PM if you don't want to participate in the Live Draft If you don't pick and post in 90 seconds the next Captain will be invited and then the option will return to you once and once only once the next Captain has taken their turn. If you fail to select a 2nd time I will randomly draw a player from the Draft Pool for your team. Draft Order (snake for 4 rounds): NB. Heather replaces Winfreux. Please note 1. Brian 2. Cubes 3. Howie 4. Pete 5. Ian 6. Betty 7. John 8. Rosina 9. Rosina 10. John 11. Betty 12. Ian 13. Pete 14. Howie 15. Cubes 16. Brian 17. Brian 18. Cubes 19. Howie 20. Pete 21. Ian 22. Betty 23. John 24.

Cheers All good - for pointing that out do i get bumped 5 or 6 spots up the draft picking order? Have a horrible feeling my #1 selection won't make it to draft pick #7.

Right first time 1,916 Report post Posted January 20, 2018 Not sure if the team names will need to align to a sport franchise like once previously ... if not then I'm gonna carry on my Latin theme and call the team that I'll be captaining 'Ad Augusta' - translating as 'To Glory'. My school' motto was (and still is) 'Per Angusta Ad Augusta' - Through Hardship to Glory' ...but we're gonna be completely ignoring the first part because there won't be any hardship for my team-mates and me in this comp ... we're gonna be hitting the ground running ! pete and N1MUE 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone is usually late or AWOL so you should post a set of picks each week and I will autosub you if someone hasn't posted by the start of race 1.

Right first time 1,916 Report post Posted January 21, 2018 Mrs Right First Time says for me to ask "Please can the Draft Draw be done-and-dusted by 5.30pm as dinner will be on the table 5.30pm and not a minute later !" I might be the Captain of what is going to be one of the all-time great PJ Super Comp teams 'Ad Augusta' ... but I'm nowhere near being Captain at the Right First Time residence. So here's hoping everyone posts on time ! . Just saying. talk 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

N1MUE 1,877 Report post Posted January 21, 2018 32 picks @ 90 seconds each equates to a maximum of 48 minutes - allow for a bit of a buffer on some picks, offset by the odd quick and decisive pick - you should be right Howie.

All the best and I'm sure you'll end up with a fine team. Maybe looking to some Mighty Blues power in there somewhere to bolster the ranks. You can't go wrong with Mighty Blues power.
