Fantasy Draft II Chit Chat

Postby Shadowood » Fri Feb 24, 2017 7:12 pm

Avonmora!!

It is time for the 2nd Pirates Glory Fantasy Draft. It has been 6 months since our last one and I am just as excited about this one as the last.

Few items of note:
    - The draft will start on Wednesday March 1st, 18:00 game time!
    - Once the official draft forum topic is launched, like last time, I am requesting only the Captains and myself post in that forum topic. This will help keep the thread clean so the captains and spectators can review picks easily. So post all your comments here on this topic PLEASE!
    - The draft will be very similar in style to the last one. 5 Captains, Serpentine Draft style, 10 Man Roster
    - 1 Addition this year is the captains will make 1 additional selection (11 Total). This last slot if for a Rookie Draft Pick. Any player who has been here 6 months or less is eligible for this selection spot.
    - Your Captains and the Draft Order are:
1. Captain DaVinci
2. Slindur
3. Black Sparrow
4. Tom Lowe
5. Captain Dungeness


After the draft is concluded, I will make a Draft Poll Forum, where you can then VOTE for which team you think is the best. Now there has been a lot of discussion on "what constitutes the Best team". This is different for every player and certainly different for each captain. During the Captains selections, they will write out why they have selected their team. The captains may have a strategy, which they will be able to explain, before voting starts. On the Voting Poll, the Captains will write out a "Blub" as to why they think you should vote for them and plead their case.

As keeping with last time, I am putting up a $10,000,000 prize for the Winning Captain. (Last time we had others contribute to prizes, I am not requesting this, but if any want to contribute to this prize pool, you are more then welcome)

Last note - The 3rd draft is to be held in September of this year. This draft will be largely different then these first two as we don't want the same results over and again. After the conclusion of this draft, I will ask for more feedback on how the community would like to see the draft go.

Thank you all, I look forward to another amazing and engaging draft next Wednesday! xD

Should make the previous draft's captains excluded from being picked.

If you see a forum rule violation, report the post.

I think it should be different captains every time imo.

And eventful players would be nice. As well, a few silent ones that don't talk much.

DDT, TPK, Valar, Avery are just examples.

Just my feedback for the 3rd one.

I will personally send 1 mill to everyone drafted on the winning team (I may raise this later). or i may send 1 mill to everyone drafted depends on my standings at the end of the event. or i might send 10 mill to each person drafted on the winning team yet again that depends on my standings.

I edited that original comment. I thought that feedback was iffy, wanted to be a bit more specific.

Thank you BMW, I will reach out to you toward the end so I can finalize all prize money. Very generous
