1. The scheduled GM will post their selection in this thread according to the provided format.
2. The BOG will verify and add that selection to the Selection Tracker. We may not be right on time for every window, so it will be your responsibility to review the previous selections and ensure you do not pick a player that has already been chosen.
3. The BOG will post in between picks when the Selection Tracker has been updated to reflect the latest selection(s).
HOW TO MAKE YOUR SELECTION:
1. You may make your selection any time before the end of your schedule time, provided that the person ahead of you has made their selection and the BOG has updated the Selection Tracker.
If the GM before you has not made their selection, wait for the BOG to select for them. This may take several minutes, since we are using preference lists for the 1st round. This may be an inconvenience, but you are being forewarned. It is an unavoidable part of the process if we wish to be fair and accommodate everybody.
2. Once the GM or BOG have posted the previous pick, you will copy/paste the previous selections, and then add your own. This way the players who have already been chosen, will always be in the most recent post and available for the next GM in line, making it easy to avoid selecting the same player twice.
3. Your selection will be formatted as follows:
Pick Number - Team Name (original owner of pick) - Selects: Player Name
Ignore the original owner of pick part if the pick originally belongs to your team.
example:
#1 - Colorado (from Buffalo) - Selects: Nathan Picket
The next GM will copy, and then add to that selection. Do not quote, as we will end up with a difficult to read chain of quotes.
Simply copy and paste the entire list and then add your selection to the end ...
#1 - Colorado (from Buffalo) - Selects: Nathan Picket
#2 - Dallas - Selects: Starsky Hutchins
And so on ...
#1 - Colorado (from Buffalo) - Selects: Nathan Picket
#2 - Dallas - Selects: Starsky Hutchins
#3 - Philadelphia (from Colorado) - Selects: Ima Chuzyu
The BOG will also copy and pass on the selection list then they update the tracker. These will be the only quoted posts in the thread, so they will be noticeable.
Quote:
Selection tracker has been updated.
#1 - Colorado (from Buffalo) - Selects: Nathan Picket
#2 - Dallas - Selects: Starsky Hutchins
#3 - Philadelphia (from Colorado) - Selects: Ima Chuzyu
4. If you happen to have consecutive picks, make them in separate posts.
5. If for some reason the BOG is unavailable for an extended period of time: We will do our best to be here when required, but sometimes things happen. As a failsafe, if you absolutely MUST make your pick before the BOG is able to select on behalf of the person ahead of you (if the previous GM doesn't select on time), you may not take the next best player available, as that player is reserved for the previous GM unless the BOG makes a different selection.
For example:
The GM drafting at #34 hasn't made their selection yet. You are drafting at #35 and it is your scheduled window.
It has been 30 minutes and the BOG still hasn't selected for that GM. You don't have time to wait any longer.
You may select any player except for the highest ranked, un-selected player according to the Selection Tracker.
Players ranked #1-32 have already been selected.
#33 - Frenchie Frys - D (has not been selected)
#34 - Potato McSkins - C (selected by Colorado)
#35 - Mashly Tuber - C (has not been selected)
In this situation, you cannot select #33 Frenchie Frys, as that player is reserved for the GM before you.
You may select any un-selected player after that point. Mashly Tuber in this case is the highest ranked player available to you.
This should not happen and we will do our best to avoid this situation, but we want to be sure to cover this possible scenario, just in case.
