We only need two more for a 1980s Mystery League Live draft to be held Saturday Feb. 22nd at 4:00pm EST. This league already features some of the veteran GMs as well as a couple of new comers to Mystery ball. So get in while you fit in. The league is called, "Let's Have Fun" 80 million/ DH.

I loved it. 60 seconds per pick in this draft. It took an hour and 22 minutes. I believe we had 10 owners there at the beginning of the draft and the other two got there by the middle of the first round. One missed their first pick and got Clemens. Immediately after the draft Clemens was cut and of course immediately picked up by someone who was faster on the trigger than me. I think there were a few owners who drifted away towards the end of the draft. 4 times I had my player picked just a pick or two in front of me. The last time, I wasn't ready for it and didn't have anyone in mind to pick. The clock ran out on me and I got Bruce Ruffin picked for me. The biggest surprise was that there has been 50 player moves sine the draft. I assumed everyone would get there team and stick with it.
That draft was really fast ! Now there have been 136 transactions. I really like the drafting process and the pre season. I called my friend and said, "You are on the clock", he just missed being able to draft in round one and the computer took Clemens. Live drafting is a great option, really it is nice to have both options!
I'm glad to hear that it went smoothly and seems to have been conducted fairly. I am interested to try one of these, but have a lot on my plate at the moment. If I find one, or decide to organize one, at a time convenient for me, I will give one of these a shot.
