[FF]: 2010 Season Long Fantasy FIRST
 
It's time to start up season three. Season two went well and season three should be even more exciting! So sign on up.
Before you do a disclaimer:

Please make sure you have the time to devote to 40+ drafts within a one month period. I'm not going to require 40+ lists (yet) because I don't even know what weeks the regionals are on but what I will do is if you miss five drafts in a row (that means if you don't make one pick or have sent me a list) you will receive a PM from me. If I don't receive a timely response (24 hours) you are booted from the league! And I am very serious about this. I booted a Woodie Flowers award winner last year and nearly booted (twice) the guy the season championship trophy is named after( so if I'm willing to boot those guys don't think I won't do the same to an everyday Joe) so I mean when I say make sure your sure!

Thanks.

I think I've amassed a significant knowledge of teams that I could pull this off. Unless I have to draft for regionals outside of the Midwest. :/

Re: [FF]: 2010 Seaso Long Fantasy FIRST
 
And for those that don't know quite how this works:

For each event (40+ events), you choose 3 teams. Drafts will be occurring at least once per day through December--we're trying to avoid Kickoff. Serpentine draft order (1-x, x-1, 1-x), usually starting at 7:00 EST. Drafts will be broken into groups (tiers) as needed to get everyone 3 teams; exact manner of breaking is up to whoever's running the draft. Points accumulate throughout the season.

What happens if you can't make a draft? No problem, just get a list of teams in that you'll want (and make sure that all the draft runners get a copy! You never know who is going to run a given draft.) We'll take care of getting you those teams, if they are available. If you don't have a list, you get random teams, so be warned. We'll take multiple lists at a time, too.

Trading teams is allowed. Grabbing a team from the available list is as simple as saying publicly that you want X instead of Y. Trades between players do need both players to say the trade is acceptable. No trades between tiers, please.

Scoring, for those that don't know:

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.....robot based award
20.....Rookie All-Star
10.....Rooke Inspiration
8......Woodie Flowers
5.....Regional Highest score
5.......Highest score / Highest Rookie Seed

2......Win(s)
-2.....Loss(es)
1......Tie(s)

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

Ed, can we have a new rule added that if someone is booted and you want to vulturize their teams, that you have to recreate the graph with that person removed along with the switch?

And don't forget to put the teams into the pool again...

While I don't think we need a rule on this, good practice indicates that you should, on someone getting the boot, remove them immediately from that tier. Standard practice last season was to leave their slot blank for the first vulturization or two, then remove it entirely.

There will be a notice before the draft closes. I would say that it'll be the day before we start drafting, which is usually around December 1.

Re: [FF]: 2010 Seaso Long Fantasy FIRST
 
How long will it take to get this thread stickied, last time it took us 142 days, can we beat it this year?

Alex, if you have a lot of school work but want to play, my suggestion is to create your pick lists over Thanksgiving break and send them to the people running the drafts (mainly Ed and Eric).

Actually, I've got some work for some mods: How about changing the sticky to this thread and locking all the 2008 and 2009 drafting threads so we know we've got the right one when it's trading time?

Definitely second the recommendation to do your lists when you don't have schoolwork/have some time off. If needed, I can send lists to anyone else running a draft.

Also, as a heads-up: I'm going to be trying something new behind-the-scenes. I have a hunch that it's going to really cut back on double picks. However, it works best if there are lots of lists. If it works, I'll make it public/open source, so someone with more knowledge than me can make it even better.

24 days, thats 118 days less that last year. Thank you Ed, Thank you Brandon and thank you to all the mods that go very under appriciated.

Now back to our regular programing. (just noticed that pun there)

EricH 05-09-2009 17:17
Re: [FF]: 2010 Season Long Fantasy FIRST
 
For the record, if you want to help run the drafting or help with the scoring, just say so. We can use all the help we can get, especially during the time around Christmas when it's harder for some of us (like me) to do a draft. (Side note: If I have to do any drafts on Thursdays, I'll probably start them around noon-one EST instead of the standard start time of 7:00 PM EST due to unavoidable meetings. If I get any on Tuesdays, expect them to start just a hair late--I have a meeting that I can't get out of right before the normal start.)

We can take as many people as want to join up, whether or not you decide to help us out. Just make sure you have enough time first!

Re: [FF]: 2010 Seaso Long Fantasy FIRST
 
I want to encourage people to start making lists, there are plenty of events at full open capacity. These lists can be sent to EricH or Koko Ed (suggested both). If you want to want until closer to drafting they can be sent in the day of the draft too, this makes it easier to edit your list of a team changes their mind.

Registration is still open if you want to join but read the first post before deciding.

A few points on the schedule, Grand Valley State is better known as The West Michigan District and Wayne State is the Detroit District. Also Philadelphia and Lone star is missing.

Does anyone know where I can see the FF point chart? I want to know how heavily to weigh the Rookie All-Star relative to other awards.

dodar 26-10-2009 19:00
Re: [FF]: 2010 Season Long Fantasy FIRST
 
so just so i can make sure, when you pre-make a list, you just list the teams you like from 1-however many is at that regional?

I would like to know that too... I just started my pre-list so :D good luck to everyone!

Vikesrock 26-10-2009 19:10
Re: [FF]: 2010 Season Long Fantasy FIRST
 
Dodar,

That is correct, you just make a list of the teams in the order you would want to pick them. You do not necessarily have to go up to the total number of teams at the event, you can stop wherever you want and if your list runs out you will be assigned a random team from the remaining pool.

Chris,
As far as I know this is the scoring that is being used:

It should be at the top of the second page of this thread. I posted it almost as soon as I joined up.

Yes. A note on lists: You do not have to list every team at the event. When (if) your list runs out, you will be assigned random teams. It's as many teams as you want. I usually just hit the big teams, then wing it/take my chances.

Second list note: I'd personally prefer them without each team designated "ordering number. team number"; I clear out the ordering numbers when I prepare a document with all the lists. Just have them in order; that'll be great.

ehochstein 26-10-2009 19:28
Re: [FF]: 2010 Season Long Fantasy FIRST
 
So when I choose my teams I should keep them in the order they are on the FIRST website?

No, put them from most wanted to least wanted, possibly numbered but Eric asks that you don't.

Drafts are as posted in the schedule here: http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...3&postcount=47 with the exceptions of Philly and Lone Star (to be scheduled), while the MI State draft takes place the week of the event due to the qualification process. Drafts typically start around 7 Eastern time; exceptions will be announced when the random list is published.

Time commitment: As much as you're willing to put in. We do ask that you participate in one draft in five, otherwise you will be removed from the league. A lot of people use Thanksgiving break as a good time to set up lists to choose their teams. As long as the lists come in, the draft runners typically don't really care how they come in.

General list note: Make sure whoever is running that night's draft has yours, and you should probably also copy Ed or myself. We do communicate who has and hasn't sent in lists or made picks so we know who's on the verge of a boot.

Thanks.
The draft dates are in the second post of the fourth page but as I have pointed out, two events are missing. The drafts are often from 7 pm to about 10 pm.

You do not have to be present during the whole draft, you can either create a list and send it in or only be there when it is your turn to pick. (times are posted before hand)

Please read through the important posts of this thread before making your decision.

dodar 20-11-2009 10:11
Re: [FF]: 2010 Season Long Fantasy FIRST
 
so for pre-making lists, who would we send them to?

and if we can make it to the actual draft, what times do they usually start?

EricH 20-11-2009 10:54
Re: [FF]: 2010 Season Long Fantasy FIRST
 
Lists get sent to whoever is running the draft; usually that's either Koko Ed or myself. Best idea is to send to both of us, as when I'm not running the draft I'll be trying to do a check on accuracy. (And I keep the score sheet, which has a way to track the number of drafts you miss in a row.)

Drafts start at 7:00 EST, unless otherwise noted.

XaulZan11 20-11-2009 15:40
Re: [FF]: 2010 Season Long Fantasy FIRST
 
Could we email our lists in an excel spreadsheet (1 tab per regional) instead of doing it in one long PM?

Chris is me 20-11-2009 15:43
Re: [FF]: 2010 Season Long Fantasy FIRST
 
I plan on knocking out all of my lists during Thanksgiving break. How many teams should they have?

EricH 20-11-2009 15:57
Re: [FF]: 2010 Season Long Fantasy FIRST
 
XaulZan, Excel works fine. You can also do one list per day, or however you want to do it. Last year, someone posted his lists online on a site he updated, then gave the runners a link to the list.

Chris, as many as you think you need. Some events, you might only have one or two teams you want. Others, the field is really deep, so you want more teams.

Barry Bonzack 20-11-2009 20:54
Re: [FF]: 2010 Season Long Fantasy FIRST
 
I'm considering completely reinventing the way I decide which teams I want to draft. 2nd place just didn't cut it last year.

all I need to do is have one list... rank EVERY TEAM IN FIRST, and then just break it down for every regional.

How many teams can there possibly be?

Wait, that sounds like what I did over the summer. It works for me. there are about 1600 teams to look through to make that list, or go by the award pages. I found info ranging back to 2002 which is more than enough.

Same here, although now a lot of award info is a bit jumbled up. I should update the rankings soon though.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I hope you get your fill of turkey and family.

There are four and a half days left for registration, if you are interested now is the time to sign up. We are at a good number, a few 3 tier drafts but most can get by with two.

You have 5 days and 6 hours to finish your pick list for the San Diego Regional.

Eric and Ed, I am still willing to help run drafts.

Chris is me 26-11-2009 13:41

Hmm, I should probably start making any kind of lists at all. I forgot that's what I planned on spending holiday break doing. Heh.

EricH 27-11-2009 02:41
Re: [FF]: 2010 Season Long Fantasy FIRST
 
rtfgnow, it looks like we'll have it covered for the first half of the drafting portion. After 12/17, though, my availability becomes questionable/nil (something about going home).

For the drafts I'm not running, I'll be checking accuracy using a program I wrote to help with draft running. If I see a discrepancy, I'll look into it--and note it if necessary in the thread. I'll try to do the same thing with the drafts I'm running.

Ed, when are we going to do Philly and LSR? LSR is Week 5; Philly is Week 4.

Oh, and I have my lists mostly done:).

Re: [FF]: 2010 Season Long Fantasy FIRST
 
Just a PSA or two:

When you send your lists in, it's a good idea to send them both Ed and myself. I run a checking program in the background; I'm trying to find and eliminate bugs/things I don't like. (So far, I'm two bugs in two drafts.) And, while Ed will usually do the drafts, I often do them too. So it's just plain a good idea. (If someone else is doing the draft, make sure they get a copy, too.) I also keep attendance--remember, 5 missed drafts in a row, and you get a warning.

PSA number 2: We get the team lists from the FIRST site. TBA is only as reliable as its most recent scrape of the FIRST site. Just so you know...
