WhiteWonder 2,150 Posted March 8, 2020 Last year we used http://www.draftpicklottery.com/ to do a weighted (by balls) draft. Posty did this outside the league members and video recorded it to YouTube. Worked pretty well if he or someone again not in the league wouldn't mind again. Quote After the 26 round regular draft is completed, any players left in the Yahoo pool are eligible for the Supplemental Draft. Note to the new players - this includes all players not on your team, regardless of eligibility, so be sure to protect anyone you want with an official draft pick. As with seasons past, this will be a two-round, serpentine draft. Draft order will be based on a draft lottery, with pick 1.01 receiving one ball and pick 1.14 receiving fourteen. The weighted entry will be: Lambert - 14 balls Jim Mora - 13 balls gratefulted - 12 balls ZeroTolerance - 11 balls cmh6476 - 10 balls Mookz - 9 balls dcb291 - 8 balls burt - 7 balls posty - 6 balls WhiteWonder - 5 balls 29 Guests - 4 balls Guardbum - 3 balls Blackclouds - 2 balls bbascom - 1 ball Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WhiteWonder 2,150 Posted March 8, 2020 since Posty is in the league this year... I might ask edjr to do me a solid since I trust him with this kind of stuff. Unless anyone else has a suggestion for someone with no bias and not in the league. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
posty 2,282 Posted March 8, 2020 Yeah unfortunately being in the league I would not feel right if I did the roll and got a great outcome for me, even with it being on the “up and up”... If edjr can’t do it, I would guess that torn might help out in this instance... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I do actually trust him to be on the up and up but someone with no real FFToday board history might be best 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WhiteWonder 2,150 Posted March 8, 2020 we can probably get this squared away and the draft order set tomorrow... give us all a week to prep and maybe explore trades and then kick off the supp drafting on 3/16 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was the commissioner of that league from 2002 to 2016 until I stopped playing fantasy sports... He took over as commissioner and is a solid guy... He has been in that league since the beginning... He only comes here during baseball season and I think only posts only in that sub-forum... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Torn 42 Posted March 9, 2020 Hi guys - happy to help out if desired. As posty noted, I'm the Commish for the Dugout League which has a board on this site as well. Posty was the Commish for many years, but handed the reins to me a few years back. Wonder and Ted are also managers in that league. If you want me to run the lottery for you, let me know. I can do it tonight after work (I'm in Eastern time zone). I'll screen shot and post the results. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Burt 43 Posted March 9, 2020 Have at it. Just know I'm really suppose to get 15 extra balls owed to me from last season. There's a thread on it somewhere a few pages back. I just dont have time to find it right now. But you can trust me! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Torn 42 Posted March 9, 2020 OK - what have I gotten myself into? I need to add balls for Burt. Sounds like he definitely likes balls, lots of balls. And, some ball fondling for Black Clouds - I'm proud to have been entrusted with such a sacred duty. p.s. I have to ask. I know a bbascom (he works with me) and is from the Boston area like me. It's a unique enough last name with the same first initial living in the same general area. Curious if he's the same guy. First name Brad? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
