For the new guys this should be all of the information you need for the draft. For you vets, please review. Thanks.
Draft pool has been revealed. We will give everyone a couple days to do some analysis and kick the draft off Friday.
We will draft the first two rounds here on the boards. Rounds 3+ will be done in game.
There is a 24 hour time limit for round one and a 12 hour limit for round two. This time limit only applies if I have not heard anything from the team on the clock. I will be happy to grant extensions as needed. Just keep me informed.
At the end of the time limit if I have not heard from you I will auto pick for you.
If you plan on receiving an auto pick please inform me at your earliest convenience so we can keep the draft moving. Do not be the guy that gets the timed out auto pick. That is bad juju.
On the other hand, submitting short lists to me prior to when your pick is up keeps the draft moving and is very good juju. Throw some currency into the karma piggy bank.
Yay for short lists. Boo for timed out auto picks.
Please enter picks in the "2040 Draft" thread.
I will do my best to notify GMs when their pick is coming up (I usually do a pretty good job). Try to keep an eye on the boards as it is ultimately the team's responsibility to know when they are on the clock.
Draft picks are available to be traded up until the time that pick is on the clock. Picks on the clock cannot be traded.
I have already played hard ball with a couple of GMs that had trade discussions in process but had to be abandoned when their pick came up before they finalized their deal. Please do not ask for leniency on this as exceptions would not be fair to the guys that have already been denied.
The auto pick list is generated by the Padres scout in game. I ask my scout to generate a list and that is what I auto pick from.
Caution. The in game scout ain't all that smart.
There will be a thread titled "Players taken by last name". Go ahead and quick check the availability of your guy there to avoid the embarrassing "Player has already been picked" pick attempt.
Any draft related questions or concerns send me a PM or bring them up here.
