Lootus was afraid that MLC will pay all its players..

[Dilscoop]

lol! Only reason it felt like I was missing (for 12 hrs!!?) is because I didn't stay up late till 6/7 in the morning to post, like I have been for past weeks. I had to get the players list finished and finish putting them in the machine. After a delightful of process of visiting about 150 players' CI profile, looking at stats and numbers, my brain saved up infos that I don't ever need. I had to go empty my history and cache and stuff. My head got pretty dizzy. I will do the rest as we draft.

I think I deserve some slack? No?

Good call. I'll do that. And that thread will be drafting the players ONLY. While I open it, I'll have to post few multiple back-back post, and it will take me about 10 min with the damn delay, so don't no body post on that thread! Only time you should post on that is when it's your turn to pick and you pick!

[Dilscoop]

I'm guessing F6 is not doing this anymore? He just gave up. 2ndly, I never see Tonoy or KP around. I think we should look for replacements. Can I get a couple of you to spam this thread every where today? I really wanna be able to get us started on draft by tomorrowish, that means, post the list, open thread, go over instructions, PM all the GMs etc...

[Dilscoop]

Draft Thread < I'm working on this. Mods-Managers, please keep an eye on that and delete all the unnecessary posts if there is any.

[AsifTheManRahman]

You can reserve posts on that thread if you'd like. We'll keep an eye and remove posts until the draft list and all admin stuff are complete.

[Night_wolf]

Dillscoop before the draft begains plz announce a date and time( example 10 aug GMT 6:00)..so that we can know when to tune up

[Dilscoop]

^ Yes, I will PM all the managers. But first I have to discuss with you guys what time we should start the draft (tomorrow that is). Discuss.

(Thanks ATMR)

[Isnaad]

I will be available from 1000 BDT to 1700 BDT (Except Friday & Saturday).

[Dilscoop]

Here is the official order once again. I've also published the 350-players long list of names. If you want someone to be added to that list, (that you KNOW you will want to draft) let me know. Otherwise, I'll save us all some time by not posting the likes of Alok, Aftab, Farhad, and etc.

List contains the past, present, even some futures. I went as far as Trescothink, Collingwood, Bond. I also had the likes of Flintoff, but I realized, they is FULLY retired and can be applied as coaches.

What are the rules around picking American/associate players again? Could you post that in the draft thread please?

[Kohli_Sox]

Good job done Dilscoop in compiling Players List

It says it on the "ESPN Screenshot." All rosters must have at least 1 player from the US, and 1 player from the Associates. (That excludes IRE)

[Dilscoop]

So what time are you settling for? No one's talking anymore.

[nadim 98]

12pm GMT-3am GMT would be ideal for me

[Maysun]

Except for 0500-1100 BDST ie; 2300-0500 GMT, I can tune in any time.

[Dilscoop]

Wait, I don't think we need a specific time to start. We can start right now if we wanted. Then people can just follow the order (hopefully). What you guys say? Are the Philly Flyers ready?

Make sure you guys quote the previous post, then copy the post (or delete the [quote] bit) and tally your picks under it to make a list. If someone isn't taking their turn, leave that spot blank.

"[b]ROUNDER 1:[/b]

Does this have to be live? Since I'm #14, I won't be holding up too many people and as I'm usually able to log in throughout the day (9:00 - 23:59 ET), I should be able to drop by and make a pick when my turn comes as long as the time you guys pick falls within that range.

Ya. This isn't live. I'm just expecting people to take their turn as soon as they can and not hold up the line.

lol, I guess I kinda made it sound like live. But no I wasn't planning on it. oops.

Kohli_Sox, you ready to go?

[Dilscoop]

I encourage everyone to select their jersey as their avatar, if it isn't too much to ask.

[Ajfar]

Also when your turn comes, what if you are not available for few hours? Than you are holding everybody else back. Do we get a certain number of hours that we have to make our call in between that time? I can usually go on BC when I'm at work, but I might get held up for an hour or so, that usually doesn't happen too often.

Anytime after 4 pm Eastern Time will work for me.

Are we allowed to trade our draft positions? Like for example, Kholi gives me his 1st round draft position, and in return I give him my turn in the first round, as well as a pick from another round. I know this will make it really complicated for you Dillu, but I'm just wondering since we will be able to pick up players from the left over bunch once the draft is over, so I don't necessarily have to pick a player in every round.

oh and one more question, is there anyway to change the format of the pick so that we don't have to link the player's CI profile. When my turn comes and if I'm at work I will be making my pick over the phone. I can access the players profile from the CI app, but that doesn't have any link to their profile. It takes forever to get CI desktop version to work.

Draft Tips:

Injury List: Shakib al Hasan, Pat Cummins, Kumar Sangakarra, Brett Lee + more. Watch out for more of those when you draft.

(While I won't not apply the WHOLE real. I'll convert it into our time length.)
