Fantasy FIRST Battlecry Division 3

[Joe Ross]

Division 3 consists of the following people:

Joel J.
Karthik
JVN
Andy Grady
Tom Schindler
Koko Ed
Joe Ross

This is a closed division, we aren't accepting anyone else. Invitations were done by PM. This is being done a little bit differently then FIRST Fantasy has been done in the past. with the differences below.

Less people then teams. Since there are 42 teams, with 4 rounds and 7 people, there will be 14 teams that aren't drafted. That way people don't have to scrape the bottom of the barrel for their last pick.

Entry fee. There was an entry fee, like I proposed in the FIRST fantasy suggestions thread after nationals. Invited people needed to PM me your first 10 choices. The list didn't have to be their final list, but it shows that they've done some thinking. Also, they had to nominate one more person they would like to invite.

No fall back list. In the past, if you weren't availible, you got the best team availible from a list of the teams with the best records. I think we have enough time to be able to do a full live draft, and I'd like to do that. If for some reason someone doesn't show up for a while, and there are several other people waiting to pick, that position will be skipped and they can pick for their spot as soon as they come back from any remaining teams.

If you would like to participate in this type of closed division for IRI, send me a pm. Some things that I will consider is how active you are on chiefdelphi, how you've done in previous FIRST Fantasy events, and whether you are heavily involved in strategy or scouting. Think of that PM as a way to prove you can play with the big boys .

For those participating. Remember that this is a live draft, so we need to make sure we get at least two picks done a day to be done in time. If you won't be around for a while, I will accept your list of picks via PM (or for the first round or two, you can tell me to use the list from your entry fee). However, I won't pick for you unless you tell me to.

Let the picking begin! JVN, you're up first.
