Stealing the description from SBlum

"Basically there are 4 people in the draft. We randomly order them and then it just becomes your standard snake draft format where you draft teams in the NCAA tournament. The catch is you can only draft one of each seed. So at the end there will be 4 teams each with a 1-16 seed. You get 1 point for each victory a team on your team gets. Most points at the end wins.

It sounds simple but there is obviously some real strat in the draft and it makes for a good sweat during the Dance."

In. Need 3 more and we can set a time for draft.

I want to send my $50 to one of you 3 once draft starts so I dont have to worry about it later. About to start 12 hour days at work, may be sporadic in posting bext month or so so just easier for me.

Yea seems like we're all here except 1 person. Might as well rando and go. I have a phone conference at 9pm est tonight and a soccer game at 930est tomorrow so snail draft seems like the best way to go. Time limit between picks? The other guy (not reddboiler not pwnsail) a reg?

I'm fine sending to an escrow if anyone is willing to hold. Also fine squaring up after. Whatever is easier

Quick question on the scoring. It's simply 1 point for every game a team you picked wins right? Seeding doesn't matter as far as points go? A #1 seed winning is the same as a #16 winning correct?

yeah that is what i'm seeing, if it doesn't work for homerun (he said depending on draft time) we can add zimmer i assume

give him a bit tho to respond but sounds like if we start by 1pm est we should get it done before tonight?

How long do we want to give him? Should line someone else up in case we don't hear back? If we're going to draft itt sooner we start the better chance of getting it done by noon Thursday

Well, this has to be drafted by Thursday so if we don't hear back from home run lets replace him and get it drafted tomorrow sometime.

Sound good?

I'm available for the next 3-4 hours and can check this thread periodically. Seems that ReddBoiler will be getting off work in an hour or two and should be available then? If that's the case, then we just need to confirm the status of pwn.
