Quick note on the reason for the redrafts: A bunch of powerhouses entered the events in question in the last week or so. Rather than doing the waiver process for all of them (lots of claims, lots of work), we're thinking a redraft would be in order.

We might also be able to slip one in tomorrow, but it's short notice.

I'll go ahead and do tomorrow night.

I can run the redrafts as I have no classes (duh) and I'm one of the one's pushing for them so it would be unfair of me to push work onto someone else. That being said I'm totally okay with either being told not to at all or having someone else draft them if for whatever reason they'd rather I not.

December 24th WPI
December 26th Pittsburgh

December 31st Alamo / San Diego
January 1st Sacramento / Lone Star

Is this okay?

One last notification / asking posts... If there aren't any objections I'd like to do this.

If possible could I have people's old lists in case they don't get a new one in so they can get kind of sort of close to what they want?

Re: [FF]: 2011 Seaon Long Fantasy FIRST
 
I'd say let's at least go ahead with WPI and Pittsburgh, then see where we're at afterwards. I'll see what lists I have in my inbox for WPI and make sure you get them.

Re: Long Island Randomized Rankings
 
My two cents on the redrafts.

It is not uncommon for teams to add an event or move events. Previously these teams went to whoever called dibs first. With the waiver list we are trying to make it fairer. A side effect of this is someone has to go through all the requests and assign teams to people.

To minimize the amount of extra effort, it makes sense to me that we should push 2 events a night earlier in drafting and have nights later that only have one event so as to allow room for redraft. Although this means there will be a better chance of more redrafts, it will probably eliminate any chance of a three draft night. This will also make us more receptive to the idea of redrafts.

My personal feelings on redrafts is that they are unnecessary work.
We'll do it this time, but next year, I vote to nix them.

Waivers don't really work if you want omre than one team is the problem.

Say I have A, B, and C

and D, E, and F are all better than C

I can't submit a request for D, if not D then E, and if not E than F for C. I have to give up A and B to put a claim in.

The entire point of the draft system is that we are picking teams one after another. When the bulk of an event's good teams come in after it, it makes the draft completely pointless.

I don't see why not. Fantasy sports leagues typically allow this and I did it for an event or two last week.

I do it like this: D (#x) or E (#x+1) or F (#x+2) for C. Substitute your own priorities in there. See, 3 claimed for 1, and if I get D, then E and F go to whoever else wants them.

Sorry, my Internet connection died about a half hour before the draft. I'll pick up the pieces right now.

Re: [FF]: 2011 Seaon Long Fantasy FIRST
 
I'm going to be visiting family Sunday-Wednesday with no internet access. I just sent my lists for those days to Ed, Eric, Alex, Kevin, and Chris. If anyone else will be running a draft, you will need to get my list from one of them (if there are any redrafts other than Pittsburgh, which I re-did the list for, use the original list if possible).
