NEW KEEPER LEAGUE

Postby AFDickie » Sun May 17, 2009 6:49 am

I've posted all of the Rules on the Individual League Chat board. (link below) I am open to suggestion on all of them. Please give me your thoughts while we await our final member.
Currently, we are set up to have the usual worst-to-first order for the annual draft. But I personally favor an NBA style lottery, where the worst record has a better chance, but no guarantee , of a top pick (and could finish as low as 4th) to prevent dumping of players. Any thoughts?

Your rules seem well thought out and detailed. I like them. The only change I would suggest, is that you suggested, we play June/ September for first two seasons. How about just for the first season? That way we could have a quick turnaround, and keep the excitement high. That is not essential to me, just a suggestion.

We are now full and ready to go ! We will use Monday's lottery results to determine draft order. I think Tuesday should give everyone some prep time after they know when they're drafting, and we can start Wednesday at 10 AM, if that's cool for everyone. Hopefully, everyone is excited enough to keep the first round moving without a clock. I happen to be traveling that day, but I will set proxies. Hopefully, everyone will set proxies (it's easy to learn) so that if they're not able to get to a computer, the draft keeps moving.
litangel, thanks for your comments. The rule actually does apply only to the first year, but it's referring to the two seasons within that year. (I changed the wording a little to hopefully clear that up.)
Any other thoughts on rules?

I know I used to have the link to the player pool, but can't seem to find it. Could somebody post if for me if they've got it.

Rule Suggestion

Postby ndowdy » Sun May 17, 2009 8:24 pm

I think that if we are going to save the stadium draft for last, we should have no clock on that round as well.

It may take a little time to try to match a stadium up as close as you can for your talent since the drafting of players will take place without knowing that.

Anyway, just a suggestion, I can live with it either way, but everybody will probably appreciate not being on a clock for the stadium draft...

Ilke your idea for a NBA like draft also, with lottery for the first round. I am excited about this league, it does seem deeper than a regular strat league. I ordered Bill James 2009 prospectus to brush up on the players.

No clock for the stadium draft sounds fine to me. The link to the draft site is:

but we'll need to get the league set up before you can really access it...
