Re: [FF]: Draft Organization Stuff To Do

I'd go with a couple of different data access methods, namely by event, by team, and by team and week/event. There are various reasons to pull each of those.



What I'm currently working on: That random list pick. I think I can get it working in the next couple of weeks.


New projects, under Organization:
--I was just thinking it might be nice to be able to maintain an archive of all the drafts.
--And, for some of the Excel wizards out there: A method for updating an event's team list on command, highlighting new and removed teams.
--Something I might be able to do in off time would be to make a draft runner coverage calendar. Essentially, who's likely to be available on what night(s), and who's actually taking on the drafts, and who's NOT available. Low priority, mainly because it's pretty quick to set something like that up.



Question for going forwards: I've been thinking of tackling the list picks after I deal with the random list. Would folks prefer to view those in vertical or horizontal form, and would you rather have 'em on the main player list, in a separate tab, or right next to the drafting tier? (BTW, I don't think it'll be an issue to take lists in and swap 'em between vertical and horizontal. Excel has a method for going one way, I have a method for going the other way somewhere in an archive if I can find it.)
