2015 ATG8 Alphabet League Chat

Best laid plans - pffft.

I'll need a little time but will be picking at "B", so next person can go...

Sorry Joey - I had a Y player, so got a free skip there, took my 1st skip of Z and chose in Letter "A".

I think the double letter skip is illegal based on my reading of the rules.

Sorry JoeyC and Mikearechambault that I did not clarify the "ADDENDUM" earlier because you all have a valid point. It was never my intention to have someone skip multiple letters in a given turn.

Please see if this makes sense:

9 - Each owner is allowed 3 SKIPS. A SKIP = you are allowed to SKIP to the NEXT LETTER if you don't like what you are delt. You get 3 and only 3 skips.
ONLY ONE SKIP per turn. You can not use 2 SKIP's to move 3 letters down the road unless one is a FREE skip due to no letters left for that spot.

Using the above example, the next in line after BONDS would be "C". You can say something like this:
"C" - SKIP (1) "C" and pick "D" - DiMaggio 11.57 Mil …please keep track of your SKIPS so we know
NOTE- the guy after you normally is very pissed off ! (that's part of the fun)


ADDENDUM to this rule:

In the event come to a letter than you already have, you may skip that letter w/o penalty (w/o using one of your FREE skips) to go to the next available letter. You may only use this to move to 1 letter down the road. All other rules above apply.

Proxy- if I get "G", put me down for the cheaper Charlie Gehringer. Thanks.

Sorry for anyone who was unaware that you could combine the letter skip with one of your 3 Fee ones

Has not been many letter skips at this point but more will come faster and often.

1 FREE skip per turn
1 LETTER skip per turn ( if you have that letter already )
No limit on letters that run out of options

( if U and V run out then you'd go from T down to W automatically)

A proxy request:

I'm 4 letters out and set for "I". If i get "I", use my first skip and take Jackson, Mike at 1.75. If i get "J", take Jackson. If i get "K", take Kelley, Joe at 4.84. Thanks!

Hey Guys,

I know this is probably an unreasonable request, but I'm wondering f I can please get a Do Over on my "D" pick from this round. What happened was--I'd been prepared to Draft C, and was on my way into a Doctor's appointment when I discovered Id likely have D instead. I didn't want to hold things up, but I didn't have access to my alphabet-sorted player spreadsheet, so I grabbed the stadium--and it was bugging me all night because it wasn't what I wanted to do.

I'd still take a D, there have only been a few picks since then, and I don't think my pick changed anyone else's, so I'm hoping you can give me a mulligan on this one?

Thanks,

David

I am ok with whatever the Commissioner decides
