2006 Pre-Kickoff FF -- IT'S ON!
 
Well, we discussed it earlier this year. And I think that we're just crazy enough to actually do it. The idea of a Pre-Kickoff league was based off some long-forgotten discussion about teams and their reputations. Let's put it to the test.

The league runs just like any other Fantasy FIRST league, with a few modifications:

1) Any team competing in the 2006 FRC is fair game.
2) All trading, drafting, and other methods of picking a team cease at 11:59 PM the night before Kickoff.
3) The score that a team receives will be the average of the scores received at each event, including the Championship.

Unless the 2006 game requires serious revisions to it, the scoring system will be as follows:

Regionals:

(Seeding before selections)
20....1st seed
12....2nd and 3rd seed
6......4th through 8th
3......9th through 12th
2......12th through 16th

4......Quarter finalists
10.....Semifinalists
20.....Finalists
30.....Winners

42.....Chairmans
36.....Engineering Inspiration Award

15.....Rookie All-Star
10.....Rooke Inspiration
8......Woodie Flowers

2......Win(s)
-2.....Loss(es)
1......Tie(s)
8.......Highest score / Highest Rookie Seed

5....... Judges Award
2.......for every non-placement award, except previously mentioned

For the Championship:

(Seeding before selections)
20....1st seed
12....2nd and 3rd seed
6......4th through 8th
3......9th through 12th
2......12th through 16th

Selections
picked by first round...points 2nd round
1st...8.....4
2nd..7.....3.5
3rd...6.....3
4th...5.....2.5
5th...4.....2
6th...3.....1.5
7th...2......1
8th...1.....(.5)

5......Quarter finalists - Division
10....Semifinalists - Division
15....Finalists - Division
25....Divisional Winners

15.....Semifinalists - Einstein field
25.....Finalists - Einstein Field
35.....Winners - Einstein Field

80.....Chairmans - Nationals
45.....Engineering Inspiration Award - Nationals
25.....Rookie All-Star
20.....Rookie Inspiration
15......Woodie Flowers

2......Win(s)
-2.....Loss(es)
1......Tie(s)
10.......Highest score / Highest Rookie Seed

10.......for every non-placement award, except previously mentioned

We'll have signups from now until the 17th, with no real limit on entrants.

Who's game?

Fair enough.

As for the number of teams, I'm up for staying with three, unless someone has a moving reason for us to go to four.

wel i can tell you all one thing its probably gunna have to do something with a square or a cube cuz think two years ago it was a sphere or circle (First logo) and last year was a triangle or tetra (first logo) and 3 years ago it was boxes (first logo) so were guessing boxes but we could be terribly wrong. lets just wait and find out ehhh

Actually, IFI did get scored, but due to various unfortuneate circumstances it was never posted, but a winner was determined. That being said I'm all for helping score if you want help Billfred.

Just to keep the drafting from going on for a month, I'd think it wiser to limit it to four rounds.

I'd like to use this league to experiment with drafting a bit. In essence, it's like the one I posted in the suggestions thread. Step one will involve setting the draft order:

Round 1: Names from a hat (or similar randomization device)
Round 2: Same, backwards.
Round 3: New names from the metaphorical hat
Round 4: The new names, backwards.

Once the draft order is set, we'll set a timetable for reasonable hours (say, 8:30 PM until 11:30 PM Eastern each night). Every ten minutes, someone will gain the opportunity to draft. They don't have to draft in that ten minutes (although that makes the most sense strategically), but they do have to draft before the trading deadline. Each empty slot at the trading deadline is a 25-point penalty. (The penalty exists because it's possible for someone to lose points on a team that they drafted correctly. It should be impossible, however, for a team that competes to lose 25 FF points.)

Trading your time slot is just like trading teams--one for one. Package deals with a team and a time slot are considered fair game, so long as both parties are switching equal numbers of teams and time slots.

Thoughts?

Re: 2006 Pre-Kickoff FF -- IT'S ON!
 
I can see where you are going with deadkines on draft picks and such, so 4 rounds sounds like a great idea. But what about a limit on people? This could potentially lead to fewer headaches when it came to scoring AND drafting. I know that the draft date is TBDand the 17th is the end last day to sign up, but any tentative time frame running trough your mind for drafting?

I guess I wasn't clear--I'm perfectly content capping the list at 35 people. That's 140 draft picks, with (assuming a new drafter is eligible every ten minutes) eighteen picks per night with a three-hour window of new drafting each night. So if we start drafting 12/18, we'd finish on 12/27 (eight days of drafting, with no clock-based draft going on 12/24-25). If the list fills up beforehand, or if we don't have a full roster, that timeline will naturally change.

That said, expect the drafting process to start a night or two after signups close.

Simple. PM me your list (and be sure to put in some safeties on that list), and I'll make sure to catch when your time comes.

On the subject of drafting, even if we fill it up early, the draft is officially on hold until I can get my laptop back from Apple (as it's headed off tomorrow for service).

Seeing as how I had to send in my Dell laptop this time last year, I'm wondering if there's a laptop out there that is Billfredproof.

Alright, so the signup deadline is tomorrow night. Apple says my iBook has been fixed (...again...), and they ship everything next-day. Next-day to DHL means Monday. Therefore, the draft will begin on Monday night unless the world ends or the Lake Murray Dam bursts. (At that point, I have bigger problems.)

Additionally, I'm going to make one revision to the scoring system: There will be no highest score category, for the simple reason that I'd have to look through every match of every regional to determine the thirty-something high scores for all the regionals and the Championship. I'm just not that motivated. (Everything else, however, will remain unchanged.)

Aw, come on! I'd do that. I scored over 10 leagues myself last year, its not that bad :p .

Anyhoo, if you want any scoring categories that you feel are too much work, i'll do them. I got nothing better to do.

I intended to start the draft tonight, starting around 8:00 PM Eastern (which handily translates out to 5:00 PM Pacific) and ending at 11:00 PM Eastern. New drafting spots will open up every five minutes due to the large number of people. If you're next to draft even if it's early, go for it. Non-drafters will just have a blank space that can be filled later; lists will be consulted just before the next person is scheduled to draft.

For example, suppose Ed and Conor both want to draft Redateam. Even after 8:05 (and thus in Conor's time), if Ed can get his pick of Redateam in before Conor's, then Ed gets Redateam. If Conor gets it in before Ed, however, then Ed's just going to have to settle for Bluateam.

OK, sorry about that. I'm new to Fantasy FIRST. Any rough estimate for when the next round will start?

Billfred 19-12-2005 19:12

Re: 2006 Pre-Kickoff FF -- IT'S ON!
 
Jeff picked 157, and coastertux picked 365.

You can check the state of the draft at http://www.billfredinthenighttime.com/draft.html

Tonight's schedule:

8:00 Ted Boucher
8:10 Adam Richards
8:20 iCurtis
8:30 Lisa Perez
8:40 Marc P.
8:50 1derboy
9:00 Vince Lau
9:10 Steve Howland
9:20 Jay Trzaskos
9:30 Matt Kaplan
9:40 Tim Delles
9:50 Holtzman
10:00 Dan Swando
10:10 Cory
10:20 Alex Cormier
10:30 Steve Horn
10:40 Big Mike
10:50 Elgin Clock

As you may note, I upped the spacing to ten minutes between people. With the way the off-hours drafting has gone, this should still get us done in plenty of time.

Billfred 19-12-2005 21:04

Re: 2006 Pre-Kickoff FF -- IT'S ON!
 
I figured it'd take a couple of days, by virtue of us drafting over 100 teams total.

Vince Steve is currently up. 1derboy and Vince can draft a team whenever they get in. Keep checking here for updates.

Edit: Steve sent in a list, and is picking 111. Jay is up.

If Mason catches one good pass and Farve continues to struggle I could sneak away with this one just like I did in 2003!
