Unique Draft Champions Offerings After Jan. 15th
Okay, since we continue to learn what works and doesn't work in these Draft Champions Leagues, I'm going to look ahead and see if we can keep everyone happy in this format!! I know it's an impossible job, but you can't fault a guy for trying, right?
So here's what I'm going to do. The signups are rolling nicely now and we won't interrupt anything now. But for those of you who would like a little more time to prep for baseball and then want a more niche Draft Champions League that will be waiting for you, I'll offer three different formats after January 15th to go along with our regular 8-hour-per-pick format. DON'T SIGN UP FOR ANY OF THESE ONLINE JUST YET!! If you want to be included on any of these lists, contact me at [email protected] or post your intentions on this thread. Thanks.
The first one is for the ADD patients who can't wait days to draft. This is our normal Friday night Special where we allow 1 minute per pick. We've been able to get these done in less than 4 hours, which is amazing since we have 750 players to pick from. These are called the NFBC Draft Champions Express and all 750 picks are done in one sitting. We'll look at the first one for Friday, Jan. 18th:
NFBC Draft Champions Express
15 teams, 50 rounds, 1 minute per pick
Friday, Jan. 18th, 8 pm ET
1. Neal Moses (if at 8 pm)
The second offering is a Faster Draft Champions League. This one is 4 hours per pick instead of 8 hours per pick. Know how to use 1 Round Auto and don't sleep in!! We'll start this after Jan. 15th if we get 15 folks signed up.
$150 NFBC Faster Draft Champions League #1
15 teams, 50 rounds, 4 hours per pick
Starts After Jan. 15th once we get 15 teams
1. Michael Mager
2. Young Kim
3. Mark Srebro
4. Sam Botnick
5. Lee Jupinka
6. Bryan Vogel
7. Rob Giese
8. Bill Strickler
9. George Kleemann
10. Mike McElroy
11. Ryan Tollefson
12. Andy Saxton
13. Mike Cameron
14. Bruce Bevacqua
15. Dave Shovein
$150 NFBC Faster Draft Champions League #2
15 teams, 50 rounds, 4 hours per pick
Starts After Jan. 17th once we get 15 teams
1. Martin Lowy
2. John Haskell
3. David Boyce
This next option is to try and encourage more picks per night for those drafters in the same time zone. So let's set up an East Coast NFBC Draft Champions League and a West Coast Draft Champions League. These are 8 hours per pick, but with folks in the same general area of the country. Hopefully this will speed up some nightly picks as folks gather during similar hours. So here are the two signup lists for those:
NFBC East Coast Draft Champions League
15 teams, 50 rounds, 8 hours per pick
Starts After Jan. 15th once we get 15 teams
1. Dean Harkey
NFBC Midwest Coast Draft Champions League
15 teams, 50 rounds, 8 hours per pick
Starts After Jan. 15th once we get 15 teams
1. Tom Burniski
2. Jason Perkins
3. Tim Haider
4. Ryan Cooley
5. Doug Reed
6. Matt Anderson
NFBC West Coast Draft Champions League
15 teams, 50 rounds, 8 hours per pick
Starts After Jan. 15th once we get 15 teams
1.
All of these leagues are part of the NFBC Draft Champions National Championship and the $10,000 grand prize. Owners are just compiling their teams in different ways. Hopefully this helps us grow the format and helps all of you owners looking to do more DC leagues this off-season. Let the signups begin and remember to do them on this thread or via email to me. With all of these leagues now automated, we need to sign everyone up at a certain time to form these special leagues. We'll show you how once we reach 15 names on any of these lists. Thanks all and ENJOY!!
Here's one more unique DC draft:
It is a $150, 50 Round Draft, 8 Hour Clock (for sleep only)
We are looking for a well paced draft with Message Board contributions.
2nd League
1. Marc Rogovin
2. Kris Carroll
3. Sam Botnick
4. Jason Perkins

Re: Unique Draft Champions Offerings After Jan. 15th
tom what kind of clock does the 8 hr sleep one have ? is it when your up your up or is there some kind of clock time .

Not Tom, but I can answer.hot and cold wrote:tom what kind of clock does the 8 hr sleep one have ? is it when your up your up or is there some kind of clock time .
It's just the implication that eight hours can only be used during the dead of night.
We still have an eight hour clock to pick, but we're hoping no picks really take nowhere near that time.
On my tombstone-
Wait! I never had the perfect draft!
