You took 1 too many so I am taking back 42.

It’s just you and Sly right? So why not just pick your 5 and let him have the last available number?

I'll take 1, 3, 4, 5, 8 and give 42 to Sly. If anyone can reach him that would be great.

Since you don't have a pick would you like to run the lottery?

Make sure you are in SEQUENCES 1 for the smallest number 45 for the largest.

Thanks.

Not that I don’t trust Alci, but it should not have been someone from this league who generated the numbers. We always had someone from FFL who wasn’t here or from the Knicks board

Actually, I have done it in the past when I didn't have a first round pick.

Just for the record, here is who ran the numbers the last 10 years.

2016 to 2019 - Sabonis (not in the league)
2020 to 2021 - writersblock (not in the league at that time)
2022 - TheMan (league champion, so no pick).
2023 - Sabonis (league champion, so no pick)
2024 - someone random form the Knick board, as quoted above.

2022 & 2023 where the league champs picked as they had the last pick in the draft. This is different from Alci who traded his pick, so who would want to see the pick they traded turn out to be the #1 pick. Not saying that is what happened, but there is the possibility of bias here.
