Test Cricket Draft

[kingkallis]

He was on my radar but wanted to go for someone who could really keep it up even after the initial burst by Ambrose and Steyn...

Good pick though!

Mine too. In my head I had ABDev (keeping) at 6, Flintoff at 7, Wasim at 8, and Roberts at 9. Was looking at a two prong spin attack as well as the three pace men. Back to the drawing board!

Haha I considered picking him as well. Combined with Imran and Botham I would have had a killer lower order.

Alex? Unbelievable....

 

[AldoRaine18]

Alex? Unbelievable....

It was a typo. Bound to happen when I am the only one who is interested in updating the list.

 

[AldoRaine18]

Since people are so anal about everything being perfect,

NEW RULE : Every time you pick a player, just posting his name in a new post, posting a picture or posting your own team with the player WILL NOT get you the pick. You will have to update the global list of players by entering the name of the player you picked, and unless and until you do that, that player is not yours and can be picked by the next member when your time is up. Thanks. Starts from the beginning of Round 6.

 

[kingkallis]

Chill down Aldo! It does irritate me a LOT when people make typo in writing a player name and its normal so cooooooool down

It's generally the job of the person running the draft to do this regularly for everyone.

 

[kingkallis]

Monk is right...and you dont have to update the global list everytime someone picks a player. Updating the list very 2-3 pages would be fine!

Pardon? I can't hear you!

It's cool Aldo, draft is going well.

 

[AldoRaine18]

The rule stands.

Is it too much to ask for everyone to copy paste it with their player and the EXACT spelling they want, in it? I don;t think so. I know I am the host and supposed to run the whole, but to maintain the integrity of player names, it is better that everyone puts in the player they pick. So thanks for doing that.

Well you have to, now. Unless you want to let someone else take your player.

It's not that it's hard to do, it just means you end up with pages and pages of the whole draft order one after the other.

But, meh. If that's what you want to do mid draft, so be it.
