Yep this is the other option. Having done a few fantasy NBA drafts this way, what we usually do is set a time limit (e.g. 24 hours) for your pick to be done otherwise you're given the next ranked player off the auto ranked list.
I am certainly up for it!!!
Will be great fun
We have plenty of time before the season, and when we get to the tail end of drafting, we'll get to see some of the young guys getting a run in the NAB cup. Could pick up some bargains there!
I would request that we dont do a rolling lockout. Who's got time for that?

Sucks to be the person who has between 9pm and 9am to make their selection.
Not everyone (ie me) will have time to check teams and injuries before the bounce. Just putting it out there.

I'm still confused though. You can make changes all week, up until the bounce of the game. Once a player's game has started, they're locked out and you can't change.
What do you mean by rolling lockout?

Rolling lockout is what you've just described. Non rolling lockout is when your whole team is locked when the first game of the round starts.

I'm interested in being a part of a draft league if there is a second one.

Okay so what do we want to do?
I'm not sure why a rolling lock out is more time consuming than a non-rolling lock out. The former just seems to give more options if you get a late withdrawl.
In the age of smart phones, it's easy to chop and change teams on the fly, but not everyone will be glued to twitter or the afl site for team changes. Gives an advantage to those who have too much time on their hands, versus those that don't.
Just putting it out there, I will go with either one but that's my preference.

What I mean is that you're most likely going to change your team on a Friday, right? After the teams have been announced. How does a non-rolling lock out change this?
From what I understand, you can't just pick up an entirely new player on a Sunday or something.

Go with rolling lockout, if a player is a late withdrawal you should be able to do something about it.

How many people are interested in the draft game on this board. I will gladly make a second league if there are enough people wanting to play that missed the first league.

I'm in on the draft game or any game if it's not too late?

Okay for everyone in league #1, I'm going to set it up now.
Here's what I'm going with:
- 12 team, head to head
- Finals series
- 22 players per team
- Live draft, 1 day per pick
- No captains
- Rolling lockout
- Trade waivers (2 days on the waiver list, reverse ladder)
- League approved trading system
Any objections?Hopefully the draft doesn't take too long.

Pity I missed this thread earlier.
If a spot opens up would be interested in joining, myself and some friends have played a $$$ league via ultimate footy for the last couple years.
Always more interesting having a draft, allows for strategy.
