Live Draft Question

PostTue Jun 04, 2019 4:50 pm

For live drafts, I would like to have the following options:

#1 - Limit the number of draft rounds. In other words, you could hold a 10-round draft, then fill out the remainder of your roster with an auto-draft list.

#2 - Pick a stadium in in the live draft.

My understanding is these are still NOT options in the SOM draft tool. Someone correct me if I'm wrong on that one. ...is there another draft mechanism available that allows you to do this?

I'd also like to see assigned draft times, similar to what StratDraft does. For example, you could easily do 24 picks in a day if team 1 picked at 9:05 team 2 picked at 9:20 team 3 picked at 9:35 etc

New Live Draft proxy question.

PostMon Jun 10, 2019 12:37 pm

I have some questions for anyone leagues using new draft clock options.

1. How do we use the three differing proxies? Is it similar to Dope?
2. In order for Engine to select the next coachs pick/proxy do I need to have draft on and not in no clock phase? I would assume with clock set to "no clock" that a coach would have to make manual picks. So if we desire proxies to be selected time would need to be chosen. Anyone using new features can share?

I really like this suggestion to be included

Sorry Riggo, 25 rounds or bust. That makes choosing this option less desirable. I practiced several mock drafts and understand how it works. there is a problem with trying to draft the newer cards added to ATG 8 CARDS while using proxy function. i had Sammy Sosa or King Silver setup as proxies, ALL NEWER CARDS needed to be manually selected, as proxy feature would not select and HAL would make its own decision as if coach was gone. key, hit I'm away button anytime you want proxies to work. Strat help desk said the problem was only in mock draft feature no problems with a real live draft and longer or no clock.
