The league will have an offline (slow) snake draft which will take place in the Draft section on this message board.
The draft order will be determined using an online draft order generator (www.fftoolbox.com/draft_order_generator.cfm) and will be posted in the Draft section.
Once the draft has started each owner will have 12 hours to make each pick, though hopefully in practice things will go much quicker than that and we’ll be able to draft around one round per day.
If an owner doesn’t make their pick within the 12 hour time limit, they will automatically be given the highest-ranked next available player, based on the ESPN player rankings list.
If you know you’re not going to be available to make your pick(s) within the time limit, please email/PM your pick(s) to someone who can make the pick on your behalf (either myself, or the person next in the draft order).
Owners at either end of the wheel (i.e. 1st and 12th in the order) will have 12 hours to make both of their back-to-back picks, not 24 hours.
Once you make your pick it cannot be changed.
As each player is taken I’ll be adding them to their respective teams on the ESPN site, so you should be able to check on which players are still available through the ESPN free agency list. You can also check the Draft Results thread to keep track of which players have been taken.
It’s a good idea to do a quick search of the thread before each pick to check that a player hasn’t already been taken. If you do pick a player that has already been taken, the draft will continue and you can make the pick again when you get the chance (i.e. once you’ve realised your mistake).
