A very slow 2009 draft

We are all big kids here and rules like these are meant to be tweaked to ensure that everyone gets a fair shake. This is especially true when working through a concept like this that has never been tried before.

Maybe we go:

3 rounds phase 2
5 rounds phase 3
5 rounds phase 4
3 rounds phase 5

Then finish with 3 and 3?

Wouldn't that accomplish the goal suggested?

No reason we can't address this right now. Just because we started and get four out of the way doesn't mean we cannot adjust on the fly regardless of KDS settings.

I set mine for 12-14 not caring about when I get to start or stop based on the phases. I set mine that way because I wanted to pick on specific turns but I too see the points being made and think we could/should address them now. I suggest leaving it as is for this draft. We knew what we were getting into when we started.

If after the whole draft is complete, we think we need to change it for next year, we can.

What I am suggesting as an option would only affect the number of rounds for phase two. Not the order. You would still be picking first at 5.1 when we start up again.

I agree with you mark. But perhaps I am a little
bias at this point:) I like the postion I am in.

[/QUOTE]I agree, as changing mid-draft could lead to some people getting upset. IMO, it is fine for this draft and like Mark said, we all knew the rules going in.

Ok I see after looking at it Rob. Thats fine. I just really didn't like the idea of changing the order at all after we have started.
