    Any idea on when we draft? 30 rounds by 12 should only take 2 hours or so but i reckon it would be important for majority to be online given its dynasty

    Can do up a doodle poll for the next month or so?
    To see if there's an evening that the majority of us could make.

    Earlier we organise it the more likely people will be to save the day and can get maximum participation in the draft

    Has the scoring been updated UCD?

    Also, probably a good idea for everyone to put post their team name so we all know who is who for trade talk, banter etc.

    My team: New Ireland Patriots

    Yeah just did it there, and if you're cool with doing the doodle poll, fire away that would be much appreciated. Still haven't got a definitive roster size though, would like to hear more feedback on this

    Three options for each day between now and Opening Day:
    -Yes
    -(Yes)? - if needed
    -No

    Fill out the poll with your boards username and availability, then we will pick the day that has the most possible people available.

    Filled it out there, basic synopsis: Midweek = Good, Weekend = Bad. I'd be available most evenings.

    From memory of previous drafts the most common times were midweek nights around 9 o'clock.

    I'd be the same as this, weekday evenings are best for me but as long as i have decent notice i can do pretty much any day

    Finished the poll there, basically any time after 9.45pm Mon-Fri is definitely fine but most days after 7pm is fine. Saturday is probably a no go. and Sunday after 6pm is grand any time.

    Draft order is up on ESPN.

    1. UCD Franchise - UCD AFC.
    2. Dunluce Demons - JaMarcus Hustle
    3. Lomira Lions / Slinger Owls - CoachTO
    4. Foxboro Legends - eagle eye
    5. Bedrock Boulders - Masked_man
    6. Marshall Mavericks - UnitedIrishman
    7. Oh Look An Eagle - Mr. Guappa
    8. Bear Down - Spongey1975
    9. Baa Baas - barbarians
    10. Footballox Footballox - mayordenis
    11. team 4thandforever -adrian522
    12. New Ireland Patriots - BigBadRob83

    Hate picking at the end of a round. The double picks are a pain with 22 picks until next one will end up with a few reaches I'd say.

    I hope thats not the Draft order even though im in 3rd spot:
    Draft Settings
    Draft Type:SnakeDraft DateNot Set
    Seconds Per Pick: 90
    Draft Order: Manually Set by League Manager
    Allow Draft Pick Trading: Yes

    It should be Randomised by the CPU.

    PM'd the guys who haven't filled in the poll so hopefully will know soon enough.
    Would be great if we could get all 12 guys together for it, especially as it's Dynasty and so deep (those pre-draft rankings can only go so far).

    I doubt there'd be much hassle leaving it until 9/9:30pm. I'm fine with it anyway.

    I'd be fine with 9, but how long will this draft go on for? I'd assume it will be much longer than a regular draft

    Quick question - is it a standard bench size or how many will there be?

    Right now it is 15 starters and 15 bench, however some people suggested extra 5 men on the bench, and then keep 30 players. This would mean you drop 5 end of every year to make room for the rookie draft (i say rookie draft, it will also have anyone who wasn't kept by their teams or selected initially)

    Mentioned this when it was brought up before, I'm pretty happy with 30 as the roster size.
    Would be fine with 25 keepers and having to throwback 5 guys into the rookie/available draft.
    Even at that lower number you're still keeping all 15 starters and 10 backups, seems plenty to me.
    If rosters go up to 35 then I could see there being little or no turnover on the roster, and personally I prefer having to make decisions on those marginal guys like that one or the other rather than just sitting on them, adds a little more activity to the league.

    Yeah I would agree with that. It will be nice to have some waiver activity.

    Set the draft date and order will be randomized one hour before draft (16:00 ET is correct right?)
