With Event 4 nearly finished loading, lets give an advance look at Event 5/6. 140 Mil next and then 200 Mil both DH.
These two events are both Live Draft OPTIONAL. Last year both Events launched 3 leagues of Live Draft. The logistics of this can be tricky, but based on how we have smoothly launched it for a few years now, we will schedule the LD on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday at 7pm PST / 10pm EST (to give the west coasters time to get home from work). The clock on LD will be 1 minute per pick and the draft is expected to run about an hour and a half. Stadium will be chosen as one of your picks. Divisions and draft order will be chosen randomly by the draft engine.
You can send me an email NOW or wait until I send out an email to ALL asking for reservations for LD and which day you prefer. ("ANY DAY" works best but if you specify a specific day I will be sure you get it) unless you wait too long and that night fills up. Once all three leagues are reserved by players, the LD is closed and you must get into an AUTODRAFT league. So it's best to get your reservation in for LD early to avoid being shut out or losing your choice of day.
Timelines for Event 5. Start date of Aug 14. Which means the Live Draft takes place the week before on Aug 8-9-10. The autodraft leagues will be created and loading will start on Thursday evening Aug 3rd for those who ARE NOT live drafting.
If you are new to Live Draft and feel like you want to give it a try, check out the MOCK Live Drafts to see if you can get an idea of how it works.
SOM created their Live Draft app specifically with the direction and assistance of Barnstormers board of directors and we feel it works very well now. Haven't seen a glitch for a long time.
Ask questions here or email me directly.
