Does anyone have knowledge regarding how HAL chooses which manager get his choice when multiple managers have chosen the same player in the same round?

Say 3 managers have chosen Ruth as their #1 pick. Is there a set protocol which determines which manager ends up with Ruth?

What if I chose a lower salary Ruth card, as opposed to another manager who chose the highest salary Ruth? Does that other manager have priority because he chose the highest salary?

Or perhaps, HAL looks at the totality of the draft and determine which manager has received the least number of his draft picks overall (lowest percentage maybe). Would this factor into how HAL determines which managers receive priority on tied picks?

Go to pick #2. I've already missed on my #1 because somebody else bested me with their #1. If I again am in a tie with another manager (or managers), does the fact that I already missed my #1 bump me up in priority?

And so on, and on? Each time during the draft that I'm tied with another manager(s), is priority given to the manager(s) who so far has had the least amount of picks go his way?

Or.... is all just random?

From the rules page:

How the Auto List Draft works

The Auto List Draft uses the following logic to draft the teams:
If a player was selected by only one team, that team gets him.
If a player was selected by more than one team:
The team that ranked that player highest gets him.
If more than one team tied for ranking that player the highest:
That player is randomly awarded to one of those teams that ranked him the same.
For each team that lost out on a player:
The team receives the next highest-priced available player that is not on another team's draft card and has the same primary position of the original player that the team lost out on. The player received cannot exceed the original player's salary unless no other players remain at or below the original player's salary.

What! Do you mean to tell me that there are rules to this game?

;o)

Thanks jjii66... I guess "Random" is the key word here.
