Increasing number of tests draft

[Teuton]

The last 4 picks have all been out of order I reckon

@trundler get things in order man!

 

[Teuton]

in the absence of trundler, my sheet says the last 4 picks are:

honestbharani	132​	Anil Kumble
Magrat Garlick	133​	Muttiah Muralitharan
Red	134​	Kumar Sangakkara
kingkallis	134​	VVS Laxman

Normally it wouldn't matter but as far as i can see there are only 2 eligible players left:
Boucher & Broad

I thought kk and Red picked up Boucher and Broad in the previous page?

 

[Teuton]

i meant that they skipped hb & magrat who should have been able to pick them by the correct order

 

[CricAddict]

So what happens to teams that have taken less than 11 players?

I dont think I skipped them. I saw hb & magrat making their picks and after that I made mine.

I reckon they just have to make do a 10-player team. Wouldn't garner any votes, lol.

 

[trundler]

They'll be allotted available players with the fewest number of tests.

 

[honestbharani]

Wait, why are we being penalized for the order not being updated correctly?

 

[trundler]

Eligible players have run out anyway so you'll end up with 10 players otherwise

[honestbharani]

@trundler - ah Gotcha... but at least you should give us players that will fill out our formations.

 

[Line and Length]

Surely a simple bit of research would have revealed the possibility of eligible players running out and drafting could have been adjusted accordingly.

 

[Himannv]

Just disqualify all 4 of them and award the win to Himannv.

@trundler get things in order man!

this please @trundler

 

[JOJOXI]

Will probably have to settle with Mark Waugh (128) I think

Surely a simple bit of research would have revealed the possibility of eligible players running out and drafting could have been adjusted accordingly.

Was the reason I went with Mark Waugh as my second to last pick - glad I did now despite being a very underwhelming pick amongst the 100+ Test brigade.

But yeah my two cents think as long as that 11th alloted player isn't good enough to reward (overly) aggressive strategy that seems fair.

In the previous drafts I played, people who failed to finish teams were typically given meme players which I think is valid enough.

Yeah this will be the course of action and I'll have the voting thread up this evening

 

[honestbharani]

You guys dont think Simon Katich is enough of a meme player for me?
