Double Decade redo - 1973 West loading

[canauscot]

We can begin to draft the day following game 141 has been completed.

Order will be determined based on worst record picks first to best picks
last (other than the first four picks of round 1).
Tie-breakers will be firstly run differential (worse picks first)
followed by head-to-head record (loser picks first)
then by home record (worst percentage picks first)
lastly by remaining cash (most cash picks first).

A lottery for the first 4 picks of the first round only will be completed using the Pick 3's, with the lowest pick 3 getting first pick. Subsequent rounds will be based on standings at game 141.

Here are the states (cobbled together from various sources) we will use if we don't hear different before 6pm EST on the evening following game 141.

canauscot - MI
jsam - NH

I made a conditional trade with BigAlric where I get his #1 pick in next year's draft if he makes the playoffs or I get his #1 pick in this draft if he does not make the playoffs. I forgot the draft started right after game 141 so we wouldn't know who was in the playoffs. Any suggestions on how to resolve? Should we go with the standings when BigAlric's pick comes up? Hold the draft at BigAlric's pick until Saturday when the season is over?

[LMBombers]

Holding up the draft defeats the purpose of starting it early. In the future no trades should be made with this contingency as part of the trade.

Lets start the draft and when we get to BigAl's pick we can re-evaluate the situation.
