@crappycraperson whats the general premise of your world cup draft? One player from a country or one from a world cup year?
I will be post soon enough it will be restriction heavy
As long as I get #1 pick with some assistance from head of god.
The current draft may not get over until early next week.. 1 semi final and the final will be played early next week.. Maybe we can kick start the new one? @crappycraperson
Don't do that. The remaining matches will get lost when new drafting begins. Waiting for a week should not be much trouble.
Yes, we will officially start new one only when current one's final is on its last legs
yeah, also against starting while the current one is in progress but you can give us criterias so we can start with research to kill time

Criteria and pick order!
Yeah always against starting before the other has finished, but criteria and general rules would be nice.
Sounds good.. Criteria would be nice Also pick order
Also pick order 
WC All Stars Draft
Preliminary rules
Eligible players
- Any player who appeared on the pitch in minimum of 3 world cup matches.
Restrictions for first 11 on the pitch
- Maximum of 6 players from one continent
- Maximum of 7 WC winners
- Maximum of 1 players from a single world cup
Picking rules
- The picks from individual managers have to be in chain style jumping from one WC edition to another.
Example :
- A manager can break the chain a maximum of 1 or 2 times. (Yet to be decided)
Example:
- A manager can trade more breaks for their first picked players. For example for buying first break, return your first picked player who will be blocked for the draft from then on. For second additional break return second picked player.
- Number of breaks used by a manager will be used as a tie breaker in case of a draw, if one manager has used more than the other. If both have used the same number of breaks then the one with less time recorded while picking players would be the winner.

@crappycraperson wouldn't the breaks make it impossible to stick to 1 player per world cup if there was only 1 break?
Example...
Player 1 2002 Player 2 2006 break Player 3 1998 ....
You'd obviously need another break or do you just skip to the next unpicked world cup
EDIT: Also are players judged on the world cup they are picked for? Or is it just every world cup / all performances.

The WC performance bit is interesting, will have a think about that. The break bit you have to use judiciously, if you break after 2006 and still need 10 more players then you should start picking again from a WC before 1970. In case you don't and feck it up then you will lose your first picked player for an extra break you will need after that.
Not really sure how the chain works esp in a snake draft.
Expect the bulk will start at '58 or later. No point in starting earlier as by the time you get to 70s and 80s the cream would have already been picked. I would assume 1966 will be the prime starting point imo. Assuming 6 managers start at 1966, then the last in snake would be at a major disadvantage!
I'm not sure having the chain would be effective here. I'd suggest just retain the first two restrictions. Maybe add in a not more than 2 per country restriction too.

I get the restrictions but not sure what the picking order rule adds? Wouldn't it also make it really hard for picks to flow?.... you're three ahead of someone picking in WC1970 so presume you'll be WC1982 and have a player ready when one (or more) players before you amend the order and you have to start thinking all over again?
You'd almost have to have a player for every position for every WC to make sure you could take your next pick (in reasonable time)?

Did we ever try running a new draft while the other draft is in final stages ? I don't see any issue with it.
Same.
Would that really be the case? I assume it would be only 1 manager that gets 1966, then 70,74 and so forth
I like the idea of the chain though may require some tweaking
Errm No. I am pretty sure that first pick would still be from 86. Given you would get at least one break, you can start from 98 too and then ride it till 2014 or 2010 for 4-5 picks then start over from 58 or 62 to finish it off.
As many managers can start from an year. All 16 can start from 66 if they want
Just read the rules again.. I thought the chain was with managers.. So basically if you start with 1966, the next player does 1970 and so on which kind of gives everyone an opportunity to get a star player from each world cup
Maybe have people pm their chosen starting point @crappycraperson would keep it random where everyone chooses to start.
Would obviously need the picking order first though.

Don't know how it gives everyone the opportunity. Just means each manager will work through the world cups in order from wherever they choose to start.
It will still be there. At the end of the day no one will pass on the main GOATs for WC. So the first 5-6 picks would still be the same and the people who get the early draft order would still have that advantage, there is no way to eliminate the same. Though the last WC draft, the person who won had a middle drafting order.
Yeah i misread the rules at first.. I thought it was managers going in a sequence rather than players being picked in a sequence..
With the managers idea since each one works through a different world cup each time, there is lesser disadvantage of going later..
I get your point.. I generally don't think it is a big disadvantage going last as there are enough GOAT's for everyone to get at least 1
