Yep... Mk is another great addition.

FWIW Mk is now the first alternate -- i'm 95% sure JPotter backed out, just waiting for confirmation.

With either JP33 or Mk, we're up to 25 26 GMs... just need those last 4 to confirm they read the rules! Please make sure I got you on the list if you've PMed me.

To avoid any hint of monkey business, the commish has made himself ineligible for the top 3 spots in the lottery. Should he finish there, he'll drop to the 4th slot and the GMs below will skip ahead of him.

I agree to all the rules but this one.

EDIT: I'm not on the guestlist?

Cheer up emo kid, theoretically i could still end up with the #1 pick if i finish 4th in the lottery then the top 3 decide to pick a little lower...  :o

This will be my last update until tonight:


We're at 26 GMs officially on board. #27 will be either JPotter33 (who I think is out, but i'm waiting for confirmation) or Mkogav.

I'm waiting until 11 pm tonight to hear back from our last 3 GMs who originally expressed interest:


The Rondo Show
Airbelinelli confirmed 7/25
Smarticus

After that I'll open those spots up to anyone else who wants them and agrees to the rules.

Diggles, this isn't a fantasy league, it's a one-off draft where you build a team from scratch.

IIRC you're in the Lucky17 Points League.

If you're interested in participating in the 2016 Celticsblog Draft you have read and agree to the rules, and I'll add you as an alternate or add you as a GM after 11 pm if the other 3 folks don't check in by then.

Please let me know via PM if you're interested and agree to the rules.

OK, we have one spot left -- for the the 3o-team Celticsblog Draft. Trust me/us when we say this is fun.

At this point all the GMs who expressed interest but haven't signed up have gotten 3 PMs, so I'm opening it up to anyone else who wants to play.

To claim the 30th team, you have to read the rules (it'll also answer the all-imporant "what the heck is this thing?" question) and PM me that you've read and agree to them. Boom you're in.

A quick reminder too... since I know everyone read every word of the rules: The order above (which is the order people confirmed tehy'd read and agreed to the rules) will be the number each GM has in Tuesday's lottery.

I'm gonna run the lottery at noon, then post a few spots at a time (in this thread) every few mins starting at 12:30 (or whenever I get my sandwich whichever is later)

Nope -- unlike in years past where the lottery determined your pick and team, this year the lottery determines the order in which we'll select our picks and team/coaches in Rounds A (tomorrow) and Round B (thurs.)

Here's how it'll work:

1. In a few minutes I'll run the lottery
2. Starting when I get my sandwich, i'll start announcing the results of Round A starting with #30 and going up to #1.

3. Tomorrow starting at 11 am (pick is due at 11:10 am) teams will pick a draft slot for the first round of the CB Draft. The person getting the #1 pick in the lottery can choose the first pick, the 5th pick, the 17th, the 30th... whatever they want.

4. The person with the 2nd pick from the lottery will pick their draft slot and so on.

Remember (as spelled out in the rules) the CB Draft is a modified snake draft (Rd 1: 1-->30; Rd 2: 30-->1; Rd 3: 30-->1; Rd 4: 1-->30....etc), so the #1 pick doesn't pick again until pick #60 and and #90. Additionally picks are assigned a time, so someone may prefer to have their first pick due at 2 pm b/c that's when they're on lunch break...


5. The order then will reverse on Thursday For Round B where #30 from the lottery gets first pick of Team/Coach combos.

These two Round A and Round B rounds are mostly to make sure everyone who's new gets how to "draft"... rather them mess something up here and get assigned a slighlty different pick and team than a player they don't want.

Gonna run the lottery now.
