Taboo Draft

[uvelocity]

now thats a gif to stare at for 10 minutes

 

[marc71178]

It's all very complicated, because Cabinet96 wasn't skipped, he picked incorrectly, and as far as I know picking incorrectly doesn't mean the next guy can now pick, unless the deadline is up.

The deadline was then up though wasn't it? That means Hoe has to pick based on what was before him ignoring cabinet.

 

[G.I.Joe]

Actually Hoe's cheated here hasn't he? With Cabinet skipped he can't pick a batsman or a keeper, so he can't take KP.

He wasn't skipped when I picked. Although I was incorrect to act under the assumption that Cabinet would correct his pick immediately. As things are now, yeah, I can't pick KP.

 

[G.I.Joe]

It's all very complicated, because Cabinet96 wasn't skipped, he picked incorrectly, and as far as I know picking incorrectly doesn't mean the next guy can now pick, unless the deadline is up. So, G. I Joe has either, picked before his go, or made an incorrect pick and we have to rollback, because his taboos were Arthur Morris (Batsman) & Jeffrey Dujon (Wicket Keeper).

However, I assume G.I Joe made his pick assuming Cabinet96 would be picking a pacer once he came back on, so his taboos, in his mind, were Dujon (Wicket Keeper) and (y) (Pacer). So that means, Eds taboo's should be Cabinet96's (pacer) and G. I. Joe's (batsman), but when Eds' pick commenced they were - possibly - Jager's Dujon (Wicket Keeper) & Kevin Pietersen (Batsman), because Cabinet96 hadn't made his pick yet.....but then G. I Joe assumed that Cabinet96 had picked a paceman but just not named him yet....arahghhfuewgi.

So I'm not quite sure what the **** we should do. We could rollback to G. I Joe, in which case he picks KP because he can now, and then Eds' tab00 is Cabinet96's (pacer) and G. I. Joe's (batsman) and then NUFAN's tab00s are G. I. Joe's (batsman) & Eds' allrounder/spinner/wicket keeper. Or...we could just shut our eyes and overlook this whole mess, in which case 8ankitj is up and his tab00's are Ed's pacer and NUFAN's spinner

That's what's happened. As things turned out Cabinet didn't correct his pick in time, so technically he's got to be skipped. Which means my pick was an incorrect one too.

So Eds then had to act under the assumption that both Cabinet and I were skipped, and his pick worked out fine seen that way.

NUFAN had to act under the assumption that Cabinet (incorrect pick), me (incorrect pick) and Eds (timed out) were all skipped, and his pick works out fine too.

It's Cabinet and I that need to remake picks based on the actual taboos.

 

[uvelocity]

my next pick will be: G.I.Joe (draft fixing)

 

[Jager]

my next pick will be: G.I.Joe (draft fixing)

loving your taboos so far

 

[G.I.Joe]

my next pick will be: G.I.Joe (draft fixing)

Yeah, there was no fix or an intention of a fix, so you can skip that broken record now.

 

[G.I.Joe]

I'm picking Shakib Al Hasan (All Rounder)

Winnie Taboos

Aubrey Faulkner
Shakib Al Hasan
Andrew Flintoff
Dale Steyn
Neil Adcock
Muttiah Muralitharan

 

[Eds]

Shakib to bowl 6?

 

[Cabinet96]

I say we just overlook the whole mess. As has been mentioned Joe picked someone he new would be available once I picked. The way it is actually looks cleaner overall and I think we'd be better of staying how we are.

If, however, you want me to change my pick, I will. In which case, who can't I pick?

 

[Cevno]

Was my fault too, tbh. I didn't realize that Joe was waiting for cabinet to correct his pick as it was wrong and told him it was his pick.

 

[uvelocity]

Yeah, there was no fix or an intention of a fix, so you can skip that broken record now.

ooh touchy

 

[Spikey]

shut your mouth ****

 

[ankitj]

Is it my turn? What am I allowed to pick?

 

[G.I.Joe]

Shakib to bowl 6?

Will probably end up bowling 8 or 9 if I continue accumulating bowlers

 

[G.I.Joe]

Is it my turn? What am I allowed to pick?

Anyone but a spinner or keeper.

Cabinet, myself, Eds are considered skipped.

8ankitj and Cevno have also had their windows expired, but this was a result of them holding off till the mess was cleared. So lets pretend the 24 hours since NUFAN picked don't matter, and that 8ankitj gets his go now. It's now 1.5 hours since 8ankitj was up.

Cevno will pick after 8ankitj, and unless 8ankitj is skipped, Cevno's taboos will be whatever NUFAN and 8ankitj will have picked.

I've left my pick on G.I Joe's user page, in case Cenvo picks before I wake up, which I assume he will, but hope he won't because I want to pick a batsman damnit
