[FF]: 2013 IRI Auction DRaft

[Koko Ed]

Gonna get the sign up started early.
I don't care if there's 60 or a hundred teams. I'll start taking in people early and split the difference to a Saturday and Sunday draft if I have to.
Information on the concept is here (http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/showthread.php?t=111880).

Scoring for the event goes as follows:
Winner = 25 points
Finalist = 20 points
Semi Finalist = 15 points
Quarter Finalist = 10 points

Seeding points goes as follows:
20....1st seed
12....2nd and 3rd seed
6......4th through 8th
3......9th through 12th
2......12th through 16th

I was going to get cute and add points for where your team got picked but then I lost interest.

So no points for wins or ties in qualification matches?

[Gregor]

What is the draft date set to be?

[PVCpirate]

What is the draft date set to be?

Invitations go out May 20, so probably sometime after that.

[Gregor]

Invitations go out May 20, so probably sometime after that.

Teams also need to accept. Last year a handful of teams declined the invitation.

[Koko Ed]

So no points for wins or ties in qualification matches?

2 for each win
-2 for each loss
1 point for a tie.

[Koko Ed]

What is the draft date set to be?

July 13th and 14th sound good.

78 divides into 26 three times so the max I can take to sign up is 52.

[Gregor]

Shouldn't we wait until the final team list is up, with acceptances? They expect about 70 teams to attend.

[Jay O'Donnell]

I know it matters a little bit less for the Auction Draft format, but will the draft order be random or order in which we signed up?

[IKE]

I beleive it will be by Reputation Rank, or number of posts...:p

How does/will this thing work?

[Koko Ed]

Randomized order.

[Andrew Lawrence]

I beleive it will be by Reputation Rank, or number of posts...:p


Number of posts and reputation rank? I'm down for that.

[Jay O'Donnell]

How does/will this thing work?

I may be misinterpreting your post, but if you are talking about the auction draft style, see the link in the first post of this thread. If you're talking about something else please clarify.

[IKE]

All set. Thanks.

I'll use the WORLD RANKINGS (http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/showpost.php?p=1276871&postcount=69) ran backwards as the ranking list (unless someone wants to go to the trouble of doing it via these teams average FF score instead). If you can't take the time to show for the draft you don't deserve to get a top tier team. Simple as that.

Two questions:
Have we decided if we are doing it on CD or over another website yet?
If we decide to send in a list instead of doing the whole live, do we just assign max values to each team?

I decided to do it on CD.
I don't know what everyone else was talking about.

When the final team list is released I'll make the draft threads.

[IKE]

How does drafting work if you have purchased all 3 teams before your time slot? For instance, in the Saturday draft I have slots 10, 25, and 44. If I happen to buy 3 teams before the draft reaches my 3rd spot, do I still nominate the team to be bid on but potentially offer it starting at $0? What if no-one bids? Do I get a 4th team or will someone else just not get a team?

This goes as well for what happens if I buy my first team at $98, but then the teams I nominate for $1 go for higher bids. Could I be stuck with only 1 team? (I think in theory if my $0 bid question is correct, then there would be some left over teams I could potentially bid $1 for....) This question would be of extreme importance to late round drafters.

[Akash Rastogi]

Sorry Ed, I'm going to have to drop, too busy lately.

[Koko Ed]

Sorry Ed, I'm going to have to drop, too busy lately.

You could always send in a list.

I'll probably nominate a team for the person if they are done with their picks.
If you use up $98 on one pick (a move I would highly recommend against). You can get your last two teams for a buck but it'll probably be two teams you don't want. Everyone will have three teams by the end of the draft.

[bam-bam]

What is the start time for the Friday and Saturday drafts?

7:00 EDT?

[Boe]

Is it possible that i could switch with someone to the sunday draft, it works out a lot better for me and i'd rather not have to send in a list

[Littleboy]

Saturday works better for me. I can switch with you.

[Koko Ed]

noon/

[Gregor]

Everyone will have three teams by the end of the draft.

What happens if you're missing a team by the end of the draft? Say I purchased two teams for $95, and every team up to and after my third time slot went for more than $5, making impossible for me to get another team via the auction.

[IndySam]

Can't happen, there are more teams available than slots to choose.

[Gregor]

Can't happen, there are more teams available than slots to choose.

Yes it can. Let's say at the end of the draft I need one more team. How is the team assigned? It's not a lack of teams that's the problem, it's the lack of me getting a bid that I want/could afford.

[Koko Ed]

If you don't have two more teams then I tell you to pick two more teams. It's simple as that.

[Jimmy Nichols]

I won't be able to make either draft day and with work, I'm not sure I will have time to put together a list. I may need to drop.

[Koko Ed]

Just send a list.

Saturday works better for me. I can switch with you.

would it be alright if we switched Ed

[Koko Ed]

Sure.

[JackN]

So for a list, would I put in how much I am willing to purchase a team for and what order I would like to call them?

[Koko Ed]

Yes.

[IKE]

Generic form I made to help you make a draft list.
http://www.chiefdelphi.com/media/papers/2851?

[bam-bam]

From the concept thread:

When your turn is up you submit the team you want and the opening bid (from $1 to $98). For the next five minutes other members can apply bids for that team.

In accordance to the rules, I make the opening bid on a team at exactly noon- not beforehand, right?

[Koko Ed]

Beforehand but if you do it now open bidding lasts til 12:05 pm Saturday. That gives people alot of opportunity to think about your pick (unless you put down $98. Then the point is moot).

[Koko Ed]

One VERY important rule I wish to bring up before the drafts this weekend. When it is your turn to pick you have one minute to submit your candidate(for a $1 bid. There's no need to be completely ruthless about it and put up a $98 bid for a team you don't really want). If you do not I will call a DELAY OF GAME penalty on you and submit a candidate for you and you cannot change that selection. You will not be allowed to hold the draft hostage and submit a pick for 469 for $1 at the last minute so no one else gets to bid on them. That's not happening. If this is a problem I would suggest submitting a list or be ready to submit your selection on time.

[Koko Ed]

Also please don't go submitting bids in the other drafts. Nothing annoys me more than disrupting the drafts. (http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/showpost.php?p=1266105&postcount=14) If you cannot resist the urge to act the fool you can expect to lose your draft spot and be relegated to the bottom of your draft.

[Koko Ed]

I have decided if you fill up your alliance before your picks are done I will just leave the draft spot vacant but I cannot change the times because people may be going by their scheduled time and may come onto CD when they are due up. It would not be fair to switch their times on them.

[Koko Ed]

On that same note: You cannot trade with anyone in the opposite tar and you cannot pick from their waiver wire.

[Koko Ed]

When you guys post a bid in the draft do something like this: (example) Koko Ed bids $98 on 1114.
And you can BS in the draft thread if you like (I did not have a separate chat place set up. I am very tech basic so I am not very chat savvy. sorry.

[Chris is me]

I'm going to have to submit a list because I'm busy at draft time.

Quick question: Say I submitted a list with teams like this (not my actual list):

4814 - $90
2826 - $80

Say the first bid was $10 for 4814. Would I automatically bid $90, or a smaller amount? Could I put a series of amounts to bid for that are under my max bid?

When it's my turn, do I start with my maximum bid for the team I want? If 2826 were around I'd start the bidding at $80?

Autobid for $90. If you do it yourself you trump the list.

[Koko Ed]

Well that was a complete disaster....

Hey first time for everything. We're just in the beta stage, ya know?

Clinton suggested using Goggle Docs which I never used before for the draft.
Other have suggested a chat room.
I have to look over so many documents when a pick comes up I don't think it's possible.

[IndySam]

Yup you just can't use lists for this kind of thing or time slots. Everyone just needs to commit 2-3 hours to be in a chat room. I don't see any other way it can work.

[bam-bam]

I have to look over so many documents when a pick comes up I don't think it's possible.

An Excel spreadsheet in Google Docs is the exact same as Excel itself, it just can't do everything that Excel can do.

We can have people put their choices into an Excel sheet which could be shared by Google Docs- Ed can copy and paste the columns as he wishes into a single document which he can reference to.

Honestly, I would recommend a chat room too. The 47 second rule is killing everybody's pick here- you have to time it at the right time, which is pretty dang hard...

[Basel A]

Ed, a chatroom would work great if you make it mandatory that people show up and kick them out if they aren't present for the start of the draft. You don't even need to schedule times, just an order. Auctions could go until people are done bidding. The whole thing would go 2-3x faster. Also easier on you (no looking through 10 different lists).

[bam-bam]

I think we would need a curated Excel sheet for future auctions...

Like:

Column AColumn BColumn C
TeamsMin. BidMax. Bid

And then maybe an option to whether one would go full out on a bid, adjusting accordingly for the amount they already have.

Say:
JimJoe has $70 with team A he paid for ($30).

He would like team B very badly, so he checks the option mentioned above so he can bet $69 flat for it.

You ought to get a look at Ike's list. It looks like something a scout would write up. It was intensely thought out (and I completely screwed him over today. Several times).

[bam-bam]

I'll look it over and see if I can tweak into something you can read easily

[Koko Ed]

Send a list.

I didn't make one and really don't have time to today. If you want to keep me in and just give me random teams at the end, that's fine.

Nice job Basel!

Ed, thanks again for hosting.

[rachelholladay]

Thanks for running this! It was very fun to be a part of the FF group for a little bit.
