I've always said that I'm not a fan of doing a snake style if the lottery format is used, so I am on the fence right now.


I really like the lottery feature, but I'm unsure of the style surrounding it. I need to mull.

ETA: But since only 5 players are being kept, I am leaning towards voting yes.

Redd, McCain, and Rick combined for 4 of the first 6 picks in this year's draft FWIW.

It's not like that was due to how the draft order was decided!

Right. Because in this case you clearly defined your pronoun IT with its antecedent.

because that statement could ONLY have referred to Port's proposed plan having the potential to be better

and NOT,

That Port's plan could possibly be better than the one extant.

I'm so stupid.

I just don't like where there's an incentive to throw away games and not set lineups. But any draft order type besides random contributes to this.

The fact that McCain isn't setting a line-up is pretty bushleague ( I haven't followed his team, just concluded from other post). Thats a problem that needs priority in being fixed than the draft order.

nice bolding and attempt to make me look selfish. But if you look at the scenario, I didn't improve my draft position whatsoever with the new draft. Yet I was still happy, even though I wasn't given an advantage. Someone else prospered.

Yet I still think it's the right move.

i think the proposed lottery draft is more fair to every owner in the league, rewards competitiveness, discourages quitting, and is more fair to all owners and teams in this league

I believe its in the constitution that McCain drew up, that a non participating team can be kicked from the league FWIW

i'm sure it can be argued that making transactions is considered participating

No. You fricking imbecile.

You said a statement that could've been taken two ways. You used a word that could've referred to two different things.

It's not my fault that you're a stubborn arse frick all the time and I can't tell the difference between when you are being a contrarian frickhead and when you actually have an opinion that you actually give two shits about. Equally not my fault is your inability to see that sometimes your language is confusing.

Not confusing is that you are acting like an a-hole. Again.

And its because this is not going your way.

naw...setting your lineup is participating.


churning players and not setting your lineup is even worse.

11.5. If an owner does not actively participate in the league for more than two weeks, they could be removed from the league. The team that was “abandoned” will try to be filled by another person, if not, it will be run by one of the Commissioners until a new owner is found to run the team. If this team ends up winning, the pot will be split evenly amongst all teams.

How about we save the draft change for next season when it isn't known who contenders/pretenders are? I know the bottom teams don't care but there is too much emotion in it halfway through the uear

You kept Msyo and Iggy. Neither have been world beaters. Will is top 4 and his keepers suck.

It almost seems like you are saying the draft doesn't have to do with having a good team so that people will try to get players from you in the offseason.

i don't see what the big deal is about it going through to a vote. the only person "bothered" by this is nobes. and i used bothered in quotes because who the frick ever knows with that guy anyway.

I hope I am clear here that I am not against this due to how it effects me AT ALL....unless me wanting the league to be competitive can be understood as me feeling that effects me....Krama, can we get a ruling?

Technically, gyno is right.

You really should wait until the offseason and make it effective in the 2012-2013 season.
