I'm interested in critiquing everyone's poor decisions whilst pretending to be an elitist and only making perfect moves.

On a serious note, can someone fill me in on what a BAT is, and what it entails? Never been involved in on before.

I'm intrested but knowning how last two BATs went, I don't belive it's going to work out.

There's a problem with fiding a winner to those things.

I'm interested

more so in a draft version, as picking existing teams would leave some with a dud team.

The 5 years from now BAT fell on its face even though we'd all picked our teams. No one came around to judge them and pick a winner from what I remember.

But even if it just ended up being the draft/build portion, that was a heck of a lot of fun.

Ill play. Id rather just start from scratch also (fantasy draft style). Then maybe have some limited number of trades. It would be cool if we could somehow pick the top eight teams after building and then have head to head match ups with polls for people to vote who would win a seven game series (ie playoffs).

Guys, FYI - I have created the sign-up thread (viewtopic.php?f=10&t=1374366).

Please sign up there by leaving your username and email!

In short, we will build a team from the scratch - by having 12 rounds of fantasy draft. After the draft is completed, we can trade the players and assets we have, to build the best team for now, for the future, or both.

To address some of your concern:

1. We will determine the winners for win-now by hosting the playoffs, where we will get to vote who the 2014-15 champ is. For those who aim to win in the futures, we will create a separate voting thread for that.

2. Timezone shall not be a concern. I live at the GMT +8 timezone myself and for the games I participated in the T&T board, they all run smoothly (I even got the Bulls winning the ECF in the latest game by trading Rose and Noah away and eventually ending up with Knight, Jeff Green and Marc Gasol).

3. I will keep things strict in order by sending regular emails and ensure everyone can abide by the timeline.

Don't hesitate and sign up! Feel free to let me know if you have further queries. :D
