Woodfull
Hammond
Tendulkar
Hazare
Gibbs
Healy
Kumble

Spofforth
Thomson

It'll be interesting to see how Gibbs is received - I selected him because
a) He fills a number 6 role perfectly for me - hugely talented and likes to play his strokes. There is less pressure at no.6 and he'd thrive there imo.
b) he's a high-class fielder and my team was lacking in that department.

If Marcuss didn't enter players for Rounds 8 and 9 then he needed to enter 3 players for Round 10. In other words there should have been 14 players in total up for Voodoo during the initial 24 hour period of Round 10.

If Marcuss missed the intial 24 hour period during Round 10 then he needed to enter 4 players for Round 11, and there should have been 15 players in total up for Voodoo during the initial 24 hour period of Round 11.

It goes without saying that a player cannot be entered for the first time during any 12 hour period after the initial 24 hour cut-off. That player should be held back to the beginning of the next Round. That concept fulls into the category of the blinding obvious.

All the above rules were specifed by Jager during one of the early Rounds without contention by anybody except that one person complained that they were too generous.

Therefore, I really don't know why Marcuss feels ripped-off, or what even the problem is

@Valer I tried to get Yousuf voodooed (at the same time, still delighted to get him) and was planning on picking up a new favourite player of mine in the reselection rounds, but it appears Marcuss is going to get him now :p
Who, out of curiosity?

The problem was the bolded bit happened, but because I voodoed on one player, Jager didn't let me have any of them initially.

It will be unfortunate if we need to go back in retrospect but can't because people have already set their teams in concrete. You may have to take it on the chin Marcuss.

Mind you, your team is excellent as it stands. If it doesn't get votes then I'll put on high-heals, a little red dress, lipstick, and then head-off to a skinheads convention.

It's all been resolved now :) Was a few crossed wires along the way but I think everyone's happy now.

And cheers :laugh: Struggling for these last two spots now though!

It will be interesting if Cevno/Marcuss wins this draft. If the majority of people are okay with the idea, I would like to split the votes they earn so that both players are rewarded. I think I mentioned it before, is it a good idea?

As good an excuse as any to not vote for Marcuss. :laugh:

The first stage of this round is done, but Blakus chose someone who has already been drafted, so I will wait until he replies/the original timeout zone still stands, it's about an hour away
