tomsky_11 Posted July 3, 2019 Author Share Posted July 3, 2019 For those the the VT Prem ( @chappy, @Hornso, @lp_villa830, @Rds1983, @Demitri_C, @skarroki ), any thoughts on draft day/time? I've provisionally set it for 8th August at 8pm UK time. This is 3 hours after transfer window closes, though not sure if this will give enough time for deadline day signings to be included in the draft. First game is Friday 9th.

Mate I think that is too late if the first game is the 9th. We can always draft players later for any new signings? How about the week before on the 1st?

I'd suggest the later the better as this gives more chance of new signings being in the draft and will know better who might be sold out of the league as well. If deadline day signings aren't in our draft then none of them will be available for first gameweek as new players added 48 hrs before gameweek will not be available on waivers until the following week.

Too late because it's a day before first game. I think people sometimes have second thoughts about players so they want a bit of notice to look at available ones before first game starts. For example I bloody missed a turn last year as went toilet and came back and was allocated a player. Annoying But I managed to trade him a few days later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I work 9-7 weekedays, so after 8 or weekends would be better for me. With @maqroll being stateside, a later time would probably suit him better?

Annoying But I managed to trade him a few days later I think trades should be available immediately after draft. I'm guessing all draft players not picked must go to free agency after the draft, so this should give opportunity to change team before first game. I'll try and confirm if this is the case or not. And on the allocated player, you can preset a short list which will be picked from if you are not available to select own player.
