@mazhar13 @JB08
 
Was certain Schweinsteiger would make it back down to me. Was 50/50 between him and Blanc and decided everyone was going old school so he'd be fine.

yeah, no chance of not picking him at this stage even if that means not finishing my first XI :)
 
Support this.



Can cut down to 6.

Yip.

As we get further in (and 15 rounds should do it), players of lesser importance as unlikely first XI. At the start it's "Best or Messi" and "forwards first or defenders?".... after 15 rounds, you'll probably have first XI sorted and choice is more "Welbeck or Walcott" ... I.e. who cares?

Yeah he was perfect for a few positions in my team would have been excellent cover.

Problem is at night. I'm off to bed now and sitting around to see if it accelerates even though 8 is enough. If it were 6 I would end up hanging around for god knows how long.

I suppose we can establish 6 during day and 8 at night (or whichever period we individually establish, e.g. some work night shifts!).

But why wait around? Just send more than 1 pick. I usually send a few if I feel like there's a chance of some being taken.

I'm struggling with the fact it's a 25 man squad.

Wrote down what I wanted and where and wound up with 36. And I would expect them all to chip in.

PS: that's with three prioritised options for each of the 27/36 "slots" remaining.

That doesn't work sometimes. Spontaneus sent me 3 options for 2 turns earlier, got the top two, and his third was someone I had in the pipeline for this round. Won't pick him, don't need to, but if I did it feels a bit shit.

It happens though and people know that when sending picks it's the best way to speed it up really.
 
Anyone going to be around to take my pick?
 
@antohan @P-Nut0712 onenil isnt playing, we have few neutrals like @Physiocrat that follow the draft but are not playing so if you sending more then one just send it to them and the problem is solved.
 
I'll be around for the next 6-ish hours. Send away!

Oh yeah I know I sent mine with Schweinsteiger on it last night to Onenil because I didn't want to highlight him to anyone :lol:

Why? 2 players for each position and 3 spare for wherever you want most options?

After 15 picks, missing your turn shouldn't be that big.
 
Sent to both.
Don't leave yet. We finally got our player.

@antohan @P-Nut0712 onenil isnt playing, we have few neutrals like @Physiocrat that follow the draft but are not playing so if you sending more then one just send it to them and the problem is solved.
I know, and I've been doing that. Problem is, they have a life too and if we start shortening timescales we would be expecting them to be around all the time.

I think it's still worthwhile to send fallbacks to them, but we shouldn't be expecting them to be around all day.
 
Happy to help as well.

Sure thing. I've tried to avoid sending to players for the reason you mentioned but Sjor and Harms being at the opposite ends ended up getting some picks as well. Good to have a middle option in the order as well
 
Why? 2 players for each position and 3 spare for wherever you want most options?

In theory, yes. But what if Cruyff gets sacked in December? Maybe the new manager likes his 3-5-2s.

Then you have more aggressive and conservative options for certain roles (home and away).

Wide wingers or inverted wingers, which may not always be as simple as inverting the flank for the existing ones.

Allowing for someone else being the manager leads you to creating more options than strictly needed.

And then there's this age factor with so many being teenagers...

Of course it sounds like I overcomplicate it, but it's an unrestricted All-Time pool, so I need some sound basis for prioritising.

Everyone after Macern gets two picks after me, so I can get up to two options for each right now, no probs.
