Agreed. Next one will be better. Thinking of a league with a point system and playoffs. Different game each week. Not everyone will be able to play each week depending on interest. Anyone is interested post response. If there is too much interest we will need more moderators.

Also, changed my name to Q-Saint (from nolasaint) so as to avoid confusion with nolesaint. Having such similar names didn't make it easy to keep up during the draft.

Me too. Never checked the board that day until after 8 and I did pick Ronald Moore as my first pick but was overruled. It definitely needs some tweaking. Thanks for the effort gorvy. Why overruled? Was he still on the board?

Anyone is interested post response. If there is too much interest we will need more moderators. I'd be in whenever you want to run one but am fine with sitting out when there are other people that want to take part. I also don't think that the moderator needs to stay out of it, whoever moderates should be able to pick as well, will actually make it run more smoothly since at least one set of picks will be instantaneous.

The first ever draft was run very, very well. There were lapses in time due to people not being available or distracted when it came to making their pick. It all went down and teams were selected and I thank and commend Gorvy for taking this on. I definitely want to be a part of future similar events - I even suggested it might work to have a private Zoom or equivalent live draft (only for the team owners, LOL) to heighten the experience. I would definitely volunteer as a moderator but would need a lot of education to set up the team vote - Gorvy did an excellent job, exceeding my expectations. I'm still unsure if Messages get refreshed without refreshing the page. In future such drafts, I would definitely do a lot more homework laying out ALL available players in order of selection (likely more than one depending on the type of team you want to build) so earlier picks can be crossed off and remaining players are more easily seen. My 77 year old memory didn't serve me well by the third round but I'm very happy with the team I ended with. Wish there was some way we could lure KK and his statistical magic to then "play" one game between each team based solely on career 40 min statistics as we have no "reserves" (I'm confident none of us did that or would do that before making our picks).

Gorvy did a great job considering how quickly it was thrown together. Consider me in on the next one as well. Q-saint return to Quackman :-)

Ooooh surprise! I thought team 4 would win. The teams were a little top heavy because of the delays. But I thought even some of the late arrivals had some good picks in there. Here are the results of week one of four.
Nolasaint. 6 points 24 votes
Scott 5 points 20 votes
Nolesaint. 4 points
Misspractice 3 points
Papi. 2.5 points
Hoopjunkie .5 points
Q-saint has won and now has a bye into the semifinals, which will consist of the 4 winners and two wild cards. Game details to follow. Post if interested (those that already played/posted do not have to enter again) ... anyone can try to join will pick 6 players by Saturday. Games on Monday nights at 8pm sharp.

I still would take my team but team 2 came up pretty stacked too. I never considered picking Elijah Burns, smart move.

I was pretty happy with my team, ended up with 3 guys who can all handle the ball, pass, shoot and get to the rim plus the best 4 in Siena history and an acc level center. It certainly was fun.

It was all the Fran love that swayed voters. A team of Wright, Nico, Long, JO and Bisbing coached by Fran would have won.
