mcbigski Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 I can do either Monday or 12 30. Wtf yahoo? The time setting is for pacific time- is there a possibility that changing your default time zone will allow us to start sooner? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you guys can hold off till Monday I'd love to not have autojax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mudguard Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 I have a draft on Monday at 6pm Pacific, but I can do another Monday draft as long as it starts 3pm Pacific or earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manhole Eunuchsbane Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Yeah, let's shoot for tonight, Monday is going to be rough. If everyone but Jax can go later, we should go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manhole Eunuchsbane Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Seems to me it's going to be harder to get 9/10 on Labor Day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mudguard Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Unlike snake drafts, an autodraft in an auction draft usually works horribly. If no values are preset, the bot will bid really high for players, meaning that you need to run the bot out of money before anyone else can get a player. The autodrafter usually will usually end up blowing most of their budget on a handful of players, leaving them only able to bid $1 for each of the remaining positions on their roster. Might be OK with just one bot, but if there are more than one, the bots bidding against each other usually results in disaster for the autodrafters.

Mudguard Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 I can also make tonight's draft. I'm on the west coast, so 9:30pm isn't bad, but the east coasters are starting the draft at 12:30am. That's super late... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've done enough mocks now to see that autodraft is an extremely poor option for auction. I just think before we jump into a switch, we should try to determine if we're going to get more folks tonight, or on Monday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm not sure that we're going to have everyone chime in here tonight. If not, we probably won't know how many people are going to show up tonight until we start the draft.

Week Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Monday at 6 pst is experts - earlier would be tough - and I'm not available tomorrow. Would prefer tonight but understand if the decision is to move it to Monday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcbigski Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Well it sounds like Monday or nothing then? I have plenty of flexibility Monday so lets set a time and get a 10th player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcbigski Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 I guess I keep drinking and see if were drafting at 12 30. But sucks if we have too many auto drafters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
