Jumping the Shark Draft

[weldone]

I choose Bill O'Reilly and hope like hell that he's not been picked like Grimmet

Well now I am sorry to say that's very unlikely...though not impossible, one has to say...

 

[Matt79]

99* is up. I'll post an updated list when I'm on a proper computer rather than a palmtop.

 

[99*]

Glenn McGrath

 

[Mister Wright]

Dean Jones

 

[Matt79]

Just Chaminda_00 and then we can do round two results, and retried that are required and start round 3.

 

[NUFAN]

Looking forward to seeing who has been banned, as there are certainly a few names mentioned who I think will be banned!

Matt, sorry if you have mentioned before, but what have you decided to do for the people who have picked banned players twice in one round? Do they miss a turn and have to pick a player at the end [my preferred option] or do they keep picking?

 

[chaminda_00]

Wasim Akram

We're going with you get two attempts at re-picking, then get demoted to the 're-pick' phase of the following round. Would work as below:

My thoughts are that it goes like this, for instance:
1.01 Stephen - Pick Accepted
1.02 Chaminda_00 - Pick Rejected
1.03 Mister Wright - Pick Accepted
1.04 99* - Pick Rejected
1.05 Jamee999 - Accepted
1.06 Julian87 - Accepted
1.07 Samuel_Vimes - Accepted
1.08 NUFAN - Rejected
1.09 Somerset - Rejected
1.10 Michaelf7^7 - Accepted
1x.01 Chaminda - Rejected second time
1x.02 99* - Accepted
1x.03 Nufan - Accepted
1x.04 Somerset - Rejected second time
1x.05 Chaminda - Rejected third time Demoted to 2x.01
1x.06 Somerset - Accepted.

2.01 Michael - Accepted
2.02 Somerset - Accepted
2.03 Nufan - Accepted
2.04 Vimesy - Accepted
2.05 Julian87 - Accepted
2.06 Jamee - Rejected
2.07 99* - Accepted
2.08 Mister Wright - Accepted
2.09 Chaminda - Rejected
2.10 Stephen - Accepted
2x.01 - Chaminda's carry over pick - Rejected
2x.02 - Jamee - Rejected
2x.03 - Chaminda's round 2 pick - Accepted (finally)
2x.04 - Chaminda's carry over pick - Rejected - Demoted to 3x.01
2x.05 - Jamee - Accepted

etc.

If a selection from round 8 or before is deferred until one of the last three rounds, it still can only be used to pick a player that is not on the banned list.

Somerset, Stephen, 99*, and Tharmi to re-pick, in that order.

 

[stephen]

Ha, I'm surprised that Holding and Waqar both were not banned, but there are at least 4 spinners banned (Warne? Murali? Laker and O'Reilly).

 

[Jamee999]

Trueman + Waqar, fair pace attack here

 

[stephen]

Trueman + Waqar, fair pace attack here

Yeah your team is the best so far

 

[Somerset]

Len Hutton for my second attempt in round two.

 

[Matt79]

Stephen's second attempt now.

 

[stephen]

Anil Kumble is my second pick this round.

 

[99*]

Adam Gilchrist

 

[chaminda_00]

I can't see this guy getting accepted. But if I see someone else pick him up early I'll be so pissed. One way if Wasim, so must this guy. But if Trueman not in then surely he fell off the radar.

Already gone.

 

[chaminda_00]

**** go for the other Allan then, Allan Donald.

 

[Somerset]

Looks like I'm first in round three, I'll kick things off (in very optimistic fashion) by selecting Imran Khan - who knows, he may have snuck through the top 31.
