Tourney team picking style [Draft]

[Maddude]

So here is the style of draft we will most likely be doing for the tourney:

Snake drafts are the most common style of fantasy draft being conducted online. Capns are randomly sorted into numerical order for selecting players (1-W/E). The draft order then alternates each round. So, a captain who selects first overall in the first round will select last in the second round and so on throughout the remainder of the draft. Likewise, the player who selects last in round one has the first pick in round two, last pick in round three, etc.

So like this:
First round:
1.1
2.2
3.3
4.4
5.5

Secound round of picking:
1.5
2.4
3.3
4.2
5.1

Salaries are so much more work and for snake draft we only need say 5 captains then you can pick whoever you want you see? Much easier for tourneys but maybe for a league we can do salaries based on seedings, say someone who is a mid/average player they'd be worth £600 and a worse player would be £300 etc etc

Yes I like this idea. It's simple and probably the fairest way.

Also we wont need seeding for this will we?

Good point. Imo the best way to do is simply pick a random player from each of the 3 pots. Saves time and there's no moaning or anything if someone gets picked last.

Right heres the plan guys.

For this tourney Me and Aero will pick captains for teams.
Then these captains will pick two players in the snake draft style.
The seeding's will then be used for the league.
Got it? Get it? Good.
