Teams
28 in one league (after the drafts).

Play format
Draft Champions with 3RR

Draft
Two drafts would be held simultaneously on mockdraftcentral. Each draft would be comprised of 14 teams. After the drafts were over, all 28 teams would be put in the same league! WOOOHOOO!! Super Satellite time!! [Greg will check to see if STATS can list all teams in the same league page]

Draft Slots
Determined by bidding some of your team's future points. If you are successful in securing a draft slot by bidding points, those points will be deducted from your team’s total at the start of the season. Obviously, some teams will start out with negative points.

This is how it would work; everyone would submit his or her bids to Greg via e-mail. (Only one e-mail to Greg per owner please). Greg will evaluate all of the bids he receives. For example, suppose the highest bid out of all 28 owners was 55 points. That owner would receive that draft slot and their season point total would begin at minus 55 (-55), instead of 0. Greg would remove that owner from future draft slot consideration. Greg would continue the evaluations by determining which owner bid the next highest amount (let’s say 50 points). That owner would receive that draft slot and their season point total would begin at minus 50 (-50), instead of 0. Greg continues the evaluation until all draft slots are awarded or there are no more bids to evaluate. Owners not bidding on a draft slot will receive a random draft slot from the remaining draft slots. Those teams will begin the season with 0 points (as they normally would).

You had me at hello...just too good of a group to bail out on. Thanks for keeping it going BigMO!

I'll see if I can get a friend to join.

~Lance

Sounds good Lance. This will be a heck of a league. Get the word out folks, cause we are filling this one.

I will still be on vacation on the 27th and that is the last day we will be visiting my son. I just cannot do it. Sorry.

I like the 42 team payout much better. Keep me on the list. I'll let you know within a week if I can't swing it.

Good to hear RC!

WINNER TAKES ALL...WINNER TAKES ALL!!!

THAT would separate this event from all others...we don't pay no stinking 2nd place!!! They're just the first of the losers!

~Lance

I was really leaning that way Lance, but in the spirit of keeping this baby alive I bumped the top prize from the original. I am all ears if there is a ground swell to make it WTA! For now, we will go with the above plan and see if others want to make the change.

The winner receives a very expensive car, and second place gets a fabulous set of steak knives costing approximately $1.00. Oh, and did I mention the losers get fired? A,B,C's Always Be Closing!

Jon, good show. I'm with you and Lance on the WTA. If you have to pay the losers; how about $6000., $700. and $300. with 28 teams and $9000., $1000. and $500, with 42 teams. But, not trying to rock the boat, so if you have to stick with your proposed payouts to fill it, I'm OK with that; but would prefer a SUPER payout for the Super Satellite. Also like the elimination of the Snake conflict!!
