Next Draft - Ideas and Discussions

Am done. It is just pointless in a way you keep going into the game 1 down and without much nuisance.

All good, I won't point fingers at anyone, really won't.... but you can suck my big Balcan balls @BlackShark_80

Will gladly take points for this, mind you.

RIP drafts :(

Maybe there's just a deadlock between different draft ideas. There's interest for each, but no clear direction.

My problem: I think a Diego draft would be best next, but the one I'd play in would be Physio's 92-12 draft. Not much help, I admit.
 
In drafts we are comparing players like how would they look with all having the same conditions, what if we removed that? What if every era was bringing something else to the table? To simplify it the most(then in games people can debate more into detail), modern players in general being better tactically/technically while older ones having a big edge when it comes to character, creativity etc. The only thing we would equal them is stamina levels, without that it would be a no contest.
 
Been some time we've played a game draft, so will see if this gets any traction:

Blackjack Draft:

You have to keep drawing till you reach 18 or above. There will be some bonus incentives if you reach 18 and above and still choose to draw.

Essentially you' have multiple criteria's in order of difficulty.
Lower numbers will have more meh pools whereas good pools will be from 18-21.

For example:

2-3 - Picks a non WC, CL, Euros winner from Italy (Tier 3 pool)
4-5 - Picks a non WC, CL, Copa winner from Brazil (Tier 3 pool)
etc etc

18-21 - Pick from Tier 2 pool. If you choose to draw another card, you can draw from Tier 1 pool. If you choose not to, you get back to Box 0 (which has Tier 0 players) and start next round of draws.

If you exceed 21, you get to choose from Tier 0 pool.

Tier 1 Pool - GOATs and Positional GOATs
Tier 2 Pools - Good players short of GOATs
Tier 3 Pool - Decent utility players
Tier 0 pool - reserve reserve players

The theme will be defined further if there's interest enough.

Suggestions welcome.

start the thread, we will need something after this shower of shit....United that is.
 
Anyone want a quick tactics draft? 8 players only.

You can pick any team club or NT for a particular match/competition/year and must relocate their tactics without any of players in that team.

A neutral team of judges will review the replication and award bonus votes if it's a true makeover.

In for the panel
 
Since it's the season, how about a Christmas Tree draft? The only rule is that you have to build a team in that formation, everything else goes. There will be a ban list and Pirlo will most certainly not be on it.

If at least 8 are interested I will run it.
 
Just sign me up for whatever gets run next

Surely alongside Edgar himself? As Bruce Lee famously said: «I fear not the man who has drafted 10000 different sides, I fear the man who has drafted a Christmas tree side 10000 times».
 
We have 12 iirc for blackjack, how about we play that rather then same 5 junkies signing in for anything every three days

I got the impression Edgar was hoping for more numbers for that one. But yeah, we can always go with that if everyone is in for it.
