Anyone wants a part time AM who can assist you to a guaranteed R1 exit, PM me.
Lies.dirty lies.
@Moby is worse than the last drafts mods
Worst future mod ever.
Perhaps we've finally hit draft fatigue seeing the thread activity and signups.
Just give me some time ffs. I am having lunch at 7.15 pm, very much loaded with work atm. Will do today.
Reinforcements draft
1. Everyone picks a squad of 12 based on some criteria
2. After every round of games, the draft master will randomly draw 4 numbers from 1 to 12. All teams will drop the players picked in the rounds of those number from their teams. These players will go into blocked list.
3. Reinforcement round will have a pool of all the lost teams from all rounds. Each team gets to pick 4 players again.
Basically, your lineup and tactics would look fresh after every game and you will have to adjust tactics based on the players that got dropped.
Quality of dropped players will more or less be same since everyone drops players picked in the same round.

We can't even get Moby's draft going yet 
I'm back from my honeymoon so I'll fire up the thread for the season draft in the next day or 2.
Can we postpone this draft.
On the road booze again...♪ ♫
Any other ideas out there?
If you have less number of people, you can try out the below:
- Ban obvious superstars less maybe 1 GOAT. Ban all players who have played in the real life team.
- Ban obvious superstars less maybe 1 GOAT. Ban all players who have played in the real life team.
What do you all think of a "Can you beat them? draft"!
Rather than playing with each other, we'll draft teams who will 'play' a match against some legendary teams. At end of snake draft, Draft Mod will allocate real life good/great teams to all playing managers. For example, the team Chester drafted will play against Arsenal Invincibles.
R1 match will be Chester All Time vs Invincibles.
If voters deem his team to be victorious, he progresses to next round. Next round he gets a relatively harder team to bear. For example, Milan early 2000s
R2 will be Chester All Time vs Milan 03-07
and so forth....
Opinions?
I remember that idea, @Edgar Allan Pillow - it's not bad.
Need to block with a fairly heavy hand, though. There will be weak points in most legendary teams if we're talking about match-ups against fantasy teams with nothing but top shelf players.
You don't want a bunch of discussions about how X (a good but not great left back) never came up against Garrincha at any point (and numerous variations on that theme).

Yeah, will leave it to someone else to run as I'm off on vacation from tomorrow.
Since nothing's going on, let me float one more idea.
The UEFA Competitions Finals draft
We have had 65 European Cups, 15 Euros and 48 Europa Cups.
Total = 128 Cups
1. Usual 16 managers in draft in snake style drafting
2. The pool of players shall be all the players who appeared in these 128 finals.
3. Each finals can have only 2 players representing them in the draft. One from the winning team and one from the losing team.
4. You can choose any Cup and year of your wish and pick a player from the winning or losing team.
For example -
Manager A picks George Best (European Cup final 1968 winning team)
Manager B picks Eusebio (European Cup final 1968 losing team)
The 1968 European Cup quota is over and can no longer be chosen.
128 finals = 256 finalist team. If 12 picks, we need 192 players. If 14 picks, we need 224 players.
Either ways, we are well covered.

I would be interested in competing in this draft.
I love you
I would be interested in this
Will their form be considered as a player just for that years competition, or their career as a whole?
I’m in too btw.
Prefer career peak as hardly anyone would have watched every competition.

Alright, that is a minute number, but a start. Lets see if more might be interested.

Start a draft, any draft.
Just a suggestion and feel free to ignore, but would it be more thematic to include European Cup Winners Cup Finals, either as well as, or instead of the Euros?
There would be overlaps no? Cup winners cup teams are already present in the UCL and Europa quota. Or am I missing something?
There's no overlap, used to be three different competitions: EC, UEFA and CWC. Three different finals per year (UEFA usually over two legs).
ETA Gio's suggestion makes sense, btw. More logical theme, strictly club football.
Plus, the amount of players you gain from including the Euro finals is probably minimal, at least if we're talking particularly interesting players.

Yea I mixed it up with super cup. I agree with the proposal.
Anyways we don't have too many sign ups yet.
What about a simple no blocks, no holds barred all time draft? No fancy rules, no gimmicks, everything goes. Back to basics draft.
Starting Saturday if there's interest....
