· all times are Eastern Standard
· picks are written ‘ rnd1-1.Vincenza - Razov, Forward, Chicago’
· if auto pick send me 6 preferred Offensive teams, 5 pref. defensive teams and 5 best goalies and draft POSITION order for Rounds 1-7 ex. Mid,For,Gk,Def,F,M,D
· if you have any player auto picked you may drop/add Those players on Friday before the Sat/Roster Freeze 3rd April
· your One drop/add a week (not a bench/starter swap-you do those) may be done from Monday to anyday before (usually Fri. for Sat. games) gameday BY emailing me beaconfp@yahoo.com the first team Daily to Request a player by 1:00AM/EST Monday night (or anyday) emails me their drop request. They find out the next morning if they got him then they add him to their team and post the drop/add at bigsoccer
· If two teams want the same guy. It for wk 1 be reverse draft order, Then - Longest since last drop/add and Lowest Team standing then– in other words, if - Shake and Unclean both bid Preki, Shake at 9 am Mon and Unclean at 11 pm EST(time doesn’t matter just the day) both were the last two teams to not bid on a player say 2 weeks since a drop, but unclean had a Worse Record, Unclean get Preki. BUT Unclean goes to the back and Shake is now has top priority for next pick. Waiver priority will be updated as it changes
· Don’t forget your drafted (starters) team must have a payroll less than 2 Million $$

Managers probably have conflicts, but 13 rounds can be done in a couple hours. I did a draft a year or two ago, 16 round, and it took less than 2 hours. Usually, teams are prepared, and the picks go very quick.

If everyone can pick between 8:30-10:30, we should be able to crank it out. To me, that's much easier and quicker than the time slots.

[mboh]

Although, the salary cap restriction makes it difficult. Maybe 5 minutes is the way to go.

[Cleve-MLS-fan]

I am up for a shorter timetable if others are prepared AL if we get a concensus fine otherwise its on at 8:30 as planned

[GunnerSabotTank]

Sounds good to me....should be okay with 5 minutes. Still 8:30 right????

Oh...and my name is Chris (forgot to include it.)

[mboh]

we're still on pick #2, and bigsoccer's server is slow.

at this rate, we'll be here all night.

[GunnerSabotTank]

We should jump into a chat room....would go much faster.

Anyone know one we can use????

[GunnerSabotTank]

At 9:30 PM ET I am going to pick (I'm #3 in round 1.) Mechanic is here with me, and he will go.

Let me know if anyone has a problem with this. I emailed Al, but have not gotten a reply. He shows 'signed off' on Bigsoccer (which is very slow.)
