What's the advantage of doing it live instead of sending in a list?
  • Is it to avoid making a list? (That's half the fun.)
  • Are people looking at other tiers for an idea of who to pick?
  • Is there a concern that the moderator will misread a list?
  • Is it the opportunity for social chatter by following it live?

We are not forming actual alliances that have to play together, so who you get in an early round has little/no bearing on who you draft later on IMO. A list is simply a ranking of which teams you feel will garner the most points under the following criteria.
