Jonsey is offline but there is no rush yet. I wasn't expecting to get strted til Thursday really but if you guys are available when your pick is up feel free to make it. It'll get really serious on Friday. I have the day off and will keep everybody on a shorter leash. You'll get about a half an hour to post your pick and then I'll use the list (unless you PM me and tell me to make the pick from your list) and if none of those robots are available I'll use John's poser rankings. Fair enough? |

Re: FIRST FANTASY DRAFT
i hope that it works the way that they reverse the order for the second round....either that or i am out way early......

For example, Xufer picks first in the first round, but 98th (last) in the second round, and 92nd in the last round. So then, Greg Needel, you'll get picks of 92, 7, and 87. EDIT: If you have not seen the list of draft numbers, it is the first post here |
Re: FIRST FANTASY DRAFT
OK... what is the order for the 3rd round? I am confused... the order just goes by when we signed up. Then in here we are listed by the first number. The second round is the send number? Yes? Right?

Re: FIRST FANTASY DRAFT
OK thanks. I got the first round stuff before. It was the 2nd an 3rd rounds that confused me before.. but now i am fine

Re: FIRST FANTASY DRAFT
GRRRR
Xufer way to take my team....... SO i will have to chose 33 |
Re: FIRST FANTASY DRAFT
We might want to keep the chatter down on this thread (I know it is Chit-Chat forum :rolleyes: ) or else it is going to get difficult to tell who is next and what teams have been picked. There are two pages to this thread already but only 2 picks :ahh: . This thread is for Draft Picks only. Please direct questions to the other threads.
As a recap teams 571 and 33 have been picked JakeGallagher is next on the clock |
Re: FIRST FANTASY DRAFT
I am keeping a list of all the teams that are picked i will try and update it as much as possible, maybe after every post. Heres a link to it.
Fantasy First Drafted Team List And heres the Link Again: Fantasy First Drafted Team List |
Re: FIRST FANTASY DRAFT
Ed, don't use the list that I e-mailed you. I'm working on an updated list. Plus, I shouldn't be away from a computer for more then an hour today, so I should be able to do it live.
|
Re: FIRST FANTASY DRAFT
I don't know much about the other teams, so I think I'm just gonna take...
Team #42. Though I don't know where they hail from, or what their sponsors are, they have to be good, just because they're team 42. lol Stupid reason huh? I still call team 42. |
Re: FIRST FANTASY DRAFT
Next up is BoyWithCape295, who's off-line right now.
Just a quick recap of those teams which have currently been selected: 1) 571 - UTC Otis Service Center/TrueBro/Coherent DEOS/Design Innovations & The Loomis Chaffee School & Windsor High School "Paragon" 2) 33 - Diamler Chrysler & Notre Dame Prepatory "The Killer Bees" 3) 42 - Daniel Webster College/Bronze Craft Corporation/Sci Tech/D’Ambra Technologies, Inc./BAE Systems & Alvirne High School |

Re: FIRST FANTASY DRAFT
My top 10:
67 - Amazing robot that does everything, has played a tough schedule, and has the awards to go with #1 16 - How could I not pick a 2 time regional winner that was instrumental to my team winning Annapolis, see 67 1114 - 1 regional win, 2 time finalist, and in a division without any standout teams. Gets bumped way up because of the division 33 - Great ball robot, adding the hanging bumps them way up 222 - These guys just win (except in elimination finals, Buffalo Bills anyone?) 254 - Do everything, a little iffy on the hanging, and the competition they've faced, but you can't go wrong with them. Great Strategy and drivers proved over the years 45 - See the match when they capped over 93 60 - See 254 237 - With so many great ball robots, the top team is going to need someone to keep people from hanging to make the difference 330 - See 237, bar blocking may not be as good (IMO), but keeping the big ball off is great. Also, faster to the bar. My disclaimer, I've only seen 1 of these robots in person (330), and only 254 in webcast, so my picks are on a basis of what they've accomplished, and what I've heard. I'm also missing the best New England ball teams, because I haven't heard much talk about them. If I was picking for most wins in qualifying, neither 237 or 330 would be in my top 10, but I think they will help thier alliance go all the way through the elims, and rack up a bunch of wins that way. I'd love so see why people make thier picks, similar to what I did. I want to see Andy Grady, Andy Baker, and Karthik's lists now, and JVN's after he picks (since he may have a chance to get one of his top 10) |

Re: FIRST FANTASY DRAFT
Hmmm.. me wonders if Koko is just going to wait until Friday to really start this thing up? It's not gonna be easy, here's some fun math
Assuming you allow a time of 30 minutes per person, and half the people are CD addicts while the other half are no-shows it would take 24.5 hours per round, and 73.5 overall- just more than 3 days.. I know that on Sunday I'll be with my family gorging my belly with chocolate, itd be nice to be done by then. Maybe tonight and tomorrow night (after 4 PM for those who work and are at school) we could have a 30 minute per pick basis... so starting now until lets say, 11:00, then at 4 PM tomorrow to 11:00, everyone has 30 minutes to show up. Lemme know what y'all think Just my two cents. |

I'm working on my list right now. Well to be specific, I'm working on a metric to rank all the teams at nationals, for 1114's scouting database. It's just pretty handy that it should suffice as my list. Of course there will be some fudging, because numbers aren't perfect. (other than 6, 28, 496 ... (2^(p-1))((2^p)-1), where (2^p)-1 is a Mersenne prime...) I'll try and upload the metric and the database as a whitepaper sometime tonight. |

i emailed my list to you ED, but i might take another day to put the rest of my teams up (is 38 enough for one day do you think?) well i am at school, soccer, and robotics for like my entire life so i will most likely not be on often. If it comes my turn (and you guys are waiting on me anytime after 1:50-5:00), and everyteam on my list is taken, can someone just pick a decent team for me? Thanks.

At this rate it's going to take weeks to finish three rounds. Ed, use Keiko173's list that she sent you for her pick. It's my sister, I'm not just making this up. |
Re: FIRST FANTASY DRAFT
Yes, what's the rule if a user doesn't select a team within __ amount of time?? I think they should be skipped over... you snooze you loose. :]

Re: FIRST FANTASY DRAFT
People can PM their lists if they want to, and I will make a selection based on the list. If that's alright with ED and Jones and the people running it. It would also help take some of the burden off of Ed, since he seems to be doing alot.
I'm at the computer most of the day, and have tomarrow (thursday) off, so it can move much faster. |

That is why I had you guys send me a list. So if I don't get a pick in 15-30 minutes then I make the pick for them. If it isn't on the list or I wasn't sent one then I give them the "best available robot" according to the rating system John-V Neun made. Patience fellas. It'll pick up. |

Why don't we just say Team311 choses team 311?

I think we've waited long enough
Team 311 gets Team 311. Since he didn't bother to submit a list. If he disagrees with the pick he can submit to any team that isn't picked in the upcomming picks.
Keiko173 is up. |
Re: FIRST FANTASY DRAFT
Let me be the first to point out that while I know many of you have things to do outside of CheifDelphi I would ask that you would do one of two things. Either submit a list or check in frequently so the draft moves along at a reasonable pace to be consdierate of fellow league members so they can make their picks as well. On Friday I will not be so patient.

Keiko173 chooses team 126.

Re: FIRST FANTASY DRAFT
Not to be pushy or anything as I got plenty of time till my draft (way in the 70s) but considering we gave Team311 about 11:30 hours will we be doing the same to him then assigning him his own team or first on the JVN list or whatever when that time is up. I think it would only be fair because we didn't allow Team311 anymore time so everybody in the ealry stages should go by the similar time schedule until we get serious tomorrow with the 15-30 minute slot.
P.S. I know we can trade teams as long as it is even (1 for 1) but... Are we allowed to trade draft slots like in the pros, say I swap to like the 20th spot in return for my 76th spot and a 6-pack of dew or what have you with Mr.Z? |

Also, considering their has been no nays about the draft spot trades those are appropriate correct as long as every person in the draft ends with 3 robots a piece correct?

Re: FIRST FANTASY DRAFT
THIS JUST IN!!!! ATTENTION DRAFTERS
As of 8:57 eastern time one, MisterX of 521, hereby agreed to trade his 76th spot with one, Mike M. of 126, for his 80th pick and a soda (preferably Pepsi) at the national competition held from April 15-17, 2004 in Atlanta, Georgia. |

Re: FIRST FANTASY DRAFT
Not to add to the post count, but it seems like those who want to know if they are up would have an easier time not having to sort though all the comments posted in this thread. I suggest that a comment thread is created and also a separate “Post only if it is a Pick" thread (except for maybe Koko Ed since he is in charge). I just think it would be much easier to sort though the picks.
Also, I would suggest that once you post, you attempt to contact the next person to help the process (PM/email/AIM). Koko Ed - I will let you officially announce if this is the way you want to run things Eric |
