The stealers draft, expeditious and unethical.

[NUFAN]

I'm voting for whichever team selects Allan Steel.

 

[ankitj]

Bradman was anyway a myth, not a real cricketer. I mean look at his batting average. So best to keep him out.

 

[kingkallis]

I am in if there is a spot.

 

[Saint Kopite]

So, when are we starting this?

 

[Red]

Ok. We've got 11 participants, which works perfectly for this.

Participants (not R1 order):

- ohno
- camo999
- watson
- AldoRaine
- Saint Kopite
- kyear2
- morgieb
- cabinet
- ankitj
- Pothas
- KingKallis


I've revised the rules ever so slightly, as follows:

- The last participant of each round can choose to steal a player from someone else in that particular round.
- The punishment for a "steal" is to automatically go to second last place in the next round.
- If Bradman is chosen, or stolen, the punishment is to forfeit your selections for the following two (2) entire rounds (with the two players selected at the completion of R11)

Round 1

- ankitj
- ohno
- morgieb
- Saint Kopite
- camo999
- kyear2
- Pothas
- cabinet
- AldoRaine
- KingKallis
- watson (the stealer)

Round 2

- watson (unless he steals in R1, in which case he goes down to second last place)
- ankitj
- ohno
- morgieb
- Saint Kopite
- camo999
- kyear2
- Pothas
- cabinet
- AldoRaine
- KingKallis (the stealer)

 

[kingkallis]

So technically the last person will be last and 2nd last in respective rounds cause he surely will steal a good one.

 

[watson]

Just thinking out loud - it's a 'descending ladder' so that means I'll be in 2nd place for Round 3. This will give me 2 picks fairly close together during Rounds 2 and 3 if I steal. I don't mind that, and seems on a par with the double-pick at the end of Round 1. Depends on which players get selected, but I might steal anyway just because I can. Look out!

Edit: Rounds 5 or 6 would be good rounds to be the stealer because that's about the time the Gold Tier ATGs begin to run-out

 

[Red]

Yeh, it's a bit of a trial this. If it goes to **** and people get upset, blame the participants, not the **** running it!

 

[harsh.ag]

Hey, Monk, I know you have had some grief on this already. But why don't you introduce some clauses in here as well. Makes it more fun I think than just selecting the ATGs. Cheers.

 

[kyear2]

It's an open draft. After the restrictions in the last draft, this is welcome.

I'll leave it open, keen to watch the stealing strategy.

 

[ohnoitsyou]

I'd take part if you mentioned this earlier.

 

[Red]

Yes

 

[AldoRaine18]

I can't catch a break with the randomizers.

 

[Saint Kopite]

Think its my turn now as eight hours have passed?
