Test draft - players can only be picked from 3 nominated countries and decades

[mr_mister]

okay, we're ready to begin shortly.

@Line and Length, that's correct. The year of their test debut designates their decade.

If a player played for 2 countries, they are to be picked by whichever one they played for first, as to not confuse things things regarding decade of debut.

and lastly, @trundler, AndrewB's explanation is correct, that's what I had in mind. otherwise it'd be too restrictive

Gonna sit this one out. Need a small break.

 

[ankitj]

If a player played for 2 countries, they are allowed to be picked for either of those 2 countries.

In the spirit of the draft (decade of debut), may be we consider the country they debuted for.

On one hand, I should do some analysis to play the percentages, but on the other hand ...

I think I'm motivated more to screw others than to build my own good team in this draft

Why do you have to be right before me in round 1!

 

[Line and Length]

Could draftees list the decade in which their choices made their debut please. While countries are obvious, the deacdes sometimes need checking. Just a thought. Thanks to Teuton who did this from the outset.

Easier to screw those who come before me actually.
