Just make sure you send draft lists to someone...


Cash, how are we going to adjudicate this?

Looking at the thread so far, all of our usual judges are participants. Might have to have this thing self judged or find some PC board vets to to do.

Hm, since we've already covered Vintage and I, how about Cash for Clunkers?

That really doesn't have a ring to it. We could pick on Gremz' native country and call you the Cash Kangaroo Molesters...

We'll set an order, usually we set it up where the person with the first pick in the first has later picks in at least the next round. either ABBA or ABBBA are usually most popular. Since we're eliminating the super duper stars I'd say ABBA is fine, maybe even just ABABA

If it's 12 spots, ABBABAAB is my personal favorite.

I'm inclined to think that without those big ticket stars that there isn't really a need to modify the draft order from the regular snake.

Those 5 would be the reason to change it in the first place, after all. This list of players on that next tier seems longer.

I agree with Snakebites on the draft order.

I think we should keep the big stars, it's hard to imagine an NBA without them. Just keep them and have ABBA

I also believe we should use the 5 big stars in the game.
