[FF]: 2016 Season Long Fantasy FIRST

[ttldomination]

I've implemented the Octofinalist logic for MSC.

It should be good/correct, but I threw it together quickly at the airport. As such, I'd appreciate if someone could double check the work and make sure the numbers make sense.

Thanks,

I verified MSC scores. Looks like you implemented Octos fine, but perhaps forgot to change the QF values from 4 to 6? Are all QF values differing from the usual at MSC?

We'll just do the same thing, QFs at MSC are 6 points and OFs are 3 points. Only at MSC, mind you.

Ah, okay. Found an issue where MSC teams were still being awarded QF along with the Octo-Quarterfinalist.

Should be fixed,

Before scores are final, Brennan noted today that there are two No-Shows on rosters for the PCH DCMP that need to be swapped for randoms. No random list is posted, do you have it Eric?

Done.

Out: 3635 and 5594
In: 5608 and 4749

Scores should be final.

Well, there goes THAT plan.

http://www.firstinspires.org/robotic...ip-lineup-show

Given that we won't know divisions until Friday...

I think we're going to need some planning. CMP starts Wednesday, but NOBODY wants to draft then. Travel, opening the pits, you get the idea.

That leaves Friday right after divisions finish announcing (yeah, right--8:30 Eastern at a guess, with no time for a picklist), Saturday, Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday (when folks are packing/traveling, so it's lousy).
Guess what that means?

THREE-A-DAYs.Well... Maybe not.

I should going to be able to run a draft every night except maybe Saturday. But, if y'all don't object, I can probably sneak a Saturday afternoon/evening draft in (as in, probably about 5 PM Eastern or a bit before). And, the draft schedule ain't changin'. So other than the times for a Saturday afternoon-ish draft, I can post all the subdivisions I'll be running at once (less team list) and when they'll be active. If someone else can take a draft each day, we should be A-OK.

Add to that that I'm fairly confident I can run two drafts at once if need be...

So, short version:

I'll post 4 draft orders for 4 of the subdivisions later this week. Pick all at once or one at a time, your choice, once the division lists are out. If someone can handle the second draft each day, great; if not, let's hope the posted orders go quickly...

Can't we just post all of the drafts up Friday and work on them all simultaneously while certain ones have a deadline on "x day"?

TBC would be willing to help run drafts so that we can have all 8 division threads up at once. I feel like that would actually help speed up some of the process.

I propose:

Archimedes - Deadline April 23
Carson - Deadline April 23
Carver - Deadline April 24
Curie - Deadline April 24
Galileo - Deadline April 24
Hopper - Deadline April 25
Newton - Deadline April 25
Tesla - Deadline April 25

Being a 2/3/3

With all drafts going up the 22nd

Drafts on the 22nd is bad, and going to the 26th is also bad.

[Navid Shafa]

I'm comfortable with both concepts, you've got my help either way. Just let me know which drafts you want me to run and when.

RFA will get all our first picks ready to submit shortly after divisions release. This way Broconnor and TBC can jump on with picks ahead of schedule if they like. Having all 8 posted for early drafting would be nice.

[EricH]

You know, I like that idea even better.

So, I'll post all 8 drafts up tonight, without teams. (Just to make sure everything's correct as far as order, and have them ready to go.)

As soon as we have the teams (or shortly afterwards--I've got a team meeting on Friday at that time), team lists go on, randoms get generated and posted. Miss your slot on the date, get a random so we can move on.



I'll be sending a reminder to some folks who seem to have fallen asleep to wake up so we don't have to randomize them...

[Navid Shafa]

RFA has submitted all 8 of our first picks. Let the madness begin

*Eric, let me know what drafts you need me to run

We'll see how it goes, but tomorrow night is probably the primary night I'll need backup.

I'm going to get the team lists and random lists into the threads now, which will take *few* minutes... That should allow for full manual drafting if necessary. [Edit] And everything is up, team list, first pick, and the random list.
