[21:15] <@Wormwood_> gay
[21:15] <@X> i hate to say it but we got pooched in the 2nd draft
[21:15] <@sQu33ze> yeah we realy did
[21:15] <@Kelloggs> ^
[21:15] <@X> all the teams got like 2-3 really good players
[21:15] <@sQu33ze> every other team picked up two picks at least
[21:15] <@Wormwood_> X, we have 16 guys showing concistently
[21:15] <@sQu33ze> yeah flings drafting strategy
[21:15] <@sQu33ze> was to pick people who would show up
[21:15] <@sQu33ze> and he got punished for it
[21:16] <@sQu33ze> people who took giant risks and they didnt pay off
[21:16] <@sQu33ze> got a second chance
[21:16] <@sQu33ze> thats pretty stupid
[21:16] <@Wormwood_> ^
[21:16] <@Wormwood_> i smell a twl post
[21:16] <@X> my point is the 2-3 players that those teams got would have been picked under round 8
[21:17] <@Stormcrow> i'd wait for the post
[21:17] <@Wormwood_> i know
[21:17] <@CJ> bitching about it wont change things
[21:17] <@Wormwood_> but what can we do X
[21:17] <@Stormcrow> people might disregard it as butthurted-ness but that is a good point for next tourney
[21:17] <@X> we have 16 players 1-16, they have 16 players 1-8 1-8
[21:17] <@Wormwood_> sit our current players that show?
[21:17] <@Wormwood_> yea
[21:17] <@X> im just stating what's happened
[21:17] <@Wormwood_> a suplimental draft was a bad idea

Just want to say Fettucine aka Boss Dogg aka Hawkbat Captain didn't get any player in the 2nd draft too, we aren't concerned by that.
would you rather the other teams just forfeit from their bad draft captains? Whichever way you cut it it's a bad turnout.
julius makes a valid point unfortunately. why cant everyone that wants to play just sign up on time
tbch the pickups of celios and devil have been really good for us.

now also tbch, lipikas turned out to be a smurf(ya u could say bad pick), Jin rage quit, TibKhan is inactive, Hotrodre hasn't been with us for the last 2 weeks, and Firepower will be leaving for FL until September 25th or something.

We have needed these two pickups 4 sure.

If you can field 16+ (as you did tonight) consistently then your team should be fine and you have nothing to complain about the draft. There was like 20+ ppl in the 2nd draft you can't just not let them play, especially if teams can barely field 12. Simply put, I believe the better skilled and more prepared team won tonight, and all this other stuff is horsefeathers.

sounds like people are mad that toys and ds are going to win tourney 2 ez
congrats alleyez way to try to make this thread about you and your team.
I said it before, but Fling lost an edge by taking the honorable route and passing on all his picks in the second draft.
Fling is a nice guy he's not made for this cut throat draft tourney format give him a break.
Bringing in and supporting new players >>>> tourney that resets in a month

Ultimately, as long as we keep adding new blood and keep this game kicking, the more we all win in the end.

I agree that whichever way you cut it it's going to be bad. But why cut it in favor of the bad draft captains instead of the good ones?
