2 negatives make a positive.
The Fourth RedCafe Sheep Draft
- Thread starter The Stain
- Start date
Next round will feck with your heads so much, can't wait
The sheep draft always brings out the worst in mods running them. Aldo, Skizzo and now you.
@The Stain am I going to need a computer for the research on this next one?
Research will be easy. Internet would help. Why?
Submitted.
4 managers left then.
3, Skizzo and Annah are part of the same team
Why the hell are people taking time in this round? You have like 5 names to pick from.
They're secretly trying to torture you into leaving the draft so that we can have your players back into the pool.
I hope Pat's internet isn't dead again.
How did Skizzo get an already picked in P1?
Did they not notice someone was already drafted ? If so..
I'll be at work when the next criteria is announced so I'll be on my phone so massive lots of research would be a pain
Should be easy to use the phone.
I get the feeling its going to be like the last round but more intense. Not really research intense but intense decisions trying to make a choice between several strategies.
Decent
Yeah I didn't fancy trawling through pages and pages on my phone. Last pick I just managed on 1 page and then struggled with which direction to go

Did Skizzannah place any bids on the already picked player?
Worthy of another BOTD moment @antohan !
Worthy of another BOTD moment @antohan !
Only the 40.
But we made up for it by not making any bids in the second round this time! You win some you lose some.
Do you still lose 40 bidding for someone that's blocked?
If 2 managers offer 40m, the player is blocked and both managers lose the money.
The player is blocked when 2 managers want the same player for the same price
The Fourth RedCafe Sheep Draft
How many more to go @The Stain
Just Pat. The others were in 3 hrs ago.
Just realized that Skizzo/Annah's supposed brainfart was probably calculated to pick Beckenbauer in the second round (protecting him in the first one)
Wouldn't go that far.
Wanted Beckenbauer but figured we'd go for a 40m bid in the first round as well and just tossed a top name up. Then changed it, but changes weren't allowed which is fair enough. Had a good laugh at it!Someone else had the same idea but at least he was open with it. SkizzAnnah seemed like a mess-up but you never know.
This is more likelyWouldn't go that far.
That was my plan to be honest.
Yeah so if a player is already blocked what happens? That's for the same round of picking isn't it?
@The Stain
If a player is already blocked and two managers bid max for him then those managers need to get themselves checked in the head.
If the player is already picked in a previous round, which i think you mean, then they'll just get FAIL (Already picked).
That was my plan to be honest.
Same here. Well, more or less: I went for a player I certainly want, but played the card in order to have the Beckenbauer gamble as Plan B. Plus, I wanted to make sure that nobody picked him up by sheer luck in P1.
Bit of a waste, you could argue - but the way things have been going, having someone luck out on him in P1 wasn’t entirely unrealistic. Well, the gamble obviously wouldn’t have succeeded in P2. I was thinking, actually, that if someone else had gone that route, the comments posted after P1 were very welcome (the idea being that Joga had secured him - if people actually believed that, you’d be golden with the gamble).
4 managers protected Beckenbauer
Is it time yet?
4 managers protected Beckenbauer
What happens if:
Round 1: manager A & B offer 40 millions+ manager C protected him
Is the player available for the 2nd round or blocked?
