Armchair General Managers -- Season 35 -- CHAT

[doc x]

Alright! I'll get to work setting up the draft in a little while. I would expect it to be ready to go late this afternoon or early evening, given my schedule today.

[doc x]

I have been trying to set up our draft on diamonddope. However, there does not appear to be a way to remove our keepers from the draft list. I am going to ask Adrian about this and will get back to you when I have an answer.

Sorry.

Adrian informs me that the diamond dope site is not set up to accommodate keeper leagues at present. In other words, there is no way to remove keepers from the overall player pool.

So, I am going to have to figure out a plan B. The most likely one is to do the draft here on the ILC. If someone has a better idea, I am open to suggestions.

Mark, just use diamonddope and we'll just have to make sure we don't draft a keeper........same as you would be doing if we do the draft here, but just a little more involved to correct a mispick. Maybe add a few more administrators to help with the drafted keeper problem, if it occurs.

I think we could do it like joe say's and it would be helpful if all the players were listed together in one post. we could then check the one list before picking.

There is no way I am going to remember who was kept and who was not.

Coach using diamonddope is the same as drafting here minus the chance to use a proxy pick, drafting here you have to make everyone wait or find someone to post proxies if you're not going to be around. Diamonddope no problem with that, either way you have to be aware of who's not available.....ILC every pick made.......Diamonddope just the keeper picks

I think your idea is a good one, Joe. I'll try to set things up by mid morning.

I set up the draft on diamond dope. Charlie owns the first pick, but Pat will have to make that pick.

The keeper master list will hopefully help us avoid picking players that already belong to other managers. I think I got all keepers listed.

As per Joe's suggestion, the following guys have admin rights just in case there is a problem:

Joe
Denny
Kevin
