Everyone is signed into draftime.
Thanks. But we gotta finish the slot selection.
When do you want to start the draft:
for untimed?
For timed?

I see the other RIBC are going to start drafting in a week and ignoring the two Japan based regular season games 3/20-21. Im ready to go and it would be ok for me if maybe we draft earlier and finish in time for those games. But if the league wants to stay with timelines of the other RIBC and finish by the 3/28 openers, that’s cool too.
As usual I’m no help and will go with the flow
Just let me/us know.

In my mind, it's normally best to give more than 24 hours notice that the draft is about to begin.
Although, I see no reason in not starting tomorrow, but I'd vote that we only turn the clock on Tuesday morning.

Looks like those who chimed in are ready to start now. No harm in starting draft time and unofficially get going, and going unclocked for round one or until whenever it is decided we officially start, so everyone sees we are starting and anyone who wants to wait states their case.

Draft is started. Untimed til Tuesday 8 am. Then
3 hour clock?? I forget.
End guys only have one time
Jeff Picked within 60 seconds of my starting the draft. Good grief
Please set your notifications so that you are notified when you are three pics away from it being your turn please also try to set Q's especially as we get into the later rounds so that we do not run out of time thank you

ID: 35493114 Mon, Mar 04, 2019, 16:59

Draft rationales are optional.
If done, we usually do them in group of 1-5, 6-10, 11-15, 16-20, 21-25.
I’ll set up a thread.

3 Hours is too much, 2 is too little,

I don't know if others feel similarly, but I was expecting this draft to start much later (Guru's initial email said "Be aware that the league drafts will likely be held during the period from March 10-28").
I'm likely outvoted here because the people who have commented on the thread seem eager to get this draft done early, but I also hadn't checked the thread after making my draft slot selection because I wasn't anticipating we'd be starting anytime soon: it's possible that others might be in the same boat.
|
42 | JeffG
ID: 0151257 Mon, Mar 04, 2019, 17:42

Maybe go unclocked for round 1. Ensures everyone know the draft started, and it could set someone back unfairly to time out on a round one selection
Once the draft starts to flow, I’m all for a reasonable clock.

ID: 301361318 Mon, Mar 04, 2019, 18:01

It's likely we have all been in a Judy league before. She always starts the draft right after we pick our draft slots. She runs a tight ship. Stay alert, keep your head on a swivel. Check your email at minimum.

44 | Judy
ID: 35493114 Mon, Mar 04, 2019, 18:13

Thanks Seattle!
Ok guys
The big boys at RIBC anticipate starting March 10/11. I haven’t been reading their thread as I do my own thing (see Seattle) I think that is late to start as it pushes us to go fast once the first few rounds are done.
However there are some who need more time to do research.
So let’s go untimed for the first round — maybe more depending upon how far we get, but definitely timed no later than March 10 8:00 am EDT.
A big favor, if you are up next and will NOT be drafting soonest, post in the thread so we don’t throw a hissy fit wondering what’s up.
How does that sound?
If you have cell number for messages and want me to have it, shoot me an email.

Decency has been lost. Common courtesy is a thing of the past.
I use the autopick not because I keep on top of my draft and it is convenient for me, but because I can't bare the thought of keeping 15 other people waiting. If I were ever faced with not being prepared to make a pick, I would certainly post in this thread to alert everyone.
Too many other managers in RIBC fail in maintaining this most basic duty to the other participants. Judy described it as a "big favor", but I don't. If you are going to wait two whole days before deciding which slot you want to take in the draft, say something. Don't keep the other fifteen of us wondering WTF?! If you don't like that the draft has started a bit earlier than it has in the past, speak up. By making the rest of us wait and wonder when the draft is going to start, you are being a passive aggressive jerk.
I disagree with the policy to have the first round untimed because, by the looks of things, this allows one manager to stop the draft for an entire week without explaining why. Everyone knows the draft has started, no one is going to allow their first pick to be skipped over. I strongly urge that Judy stick with her original plan and start the clock today.
I've gone through this before. I expect Twilson to huff and puff about how important his life is, about how I am rude and mock me with a misunderstanding of the concept of Zen. Zen is much more than the English word "calm", okay. The Shaolin Monastery is Chan Buddhist institution, "Chan" is Chinese, "Zen" is Japanese. Those monks are much more than "chill".
Bottom line is... you signed up for RIBC, the draft has started, let's get on with it. It's too bad that we even have to use a clock, but without it, a handful of managers would take days to make a pick.

RE: Draft Start & Timing
I feel like the limited vote that we had, had more/less decided that we were starting when we did, and that we'd be on the clock by now.
I also feel that we are all aware that qualifier drafts start at different intervals, and we should be monitoring the forums/DraftTime. The fact that "pick process" is complete should have been enough of a heads up that we are good to go. The fact that any manager was able to pick a slot, would reasonably mean that we also should have been ready (from a research perspective) to make this first pick (at the very least).

I vote for whatever annoys the following people most, in priority order: - Fosten - Gramazins - Thumper - ttucowboy - Toral (even though he’s not in this league) - Judy
I also find it amusing that I have met 7 people in this league in person, and none of those people are Fosten, Judy, or Pete.

@Seatlezen congratulations. I thought for sure that tirade would have occurred 24 hours earlier. Waiting for everyone to realize the draft started was the only sensible thing to do in this situation.
It sounds like you want to join a 2 min clock snake draft and not participate in a fun slow draft. If you don’t know where to find such a draft let me know and I will gladly point you in the right direction.

It's almost been a week since we started... and we still haven't passed the 1/3 mark in the draft.
I think we need to rethink the speed timings, otherwise we won't have time to run Free Agency prior to the Japan games.

At Yahoo Ohtani is 2 players, At ESPN Ohtani is 1 player. At draftime Ohtani is 3 players to accommodate both formats. Should be possible to remove Ohtani OF and Ohtani P from the database. And allow PermDude to pick again.

I mean on our league page... You used to be able to look at different lengths like last week, monthly, season 2018 season... Right? Under stats.
Also it looks like I drafted only 2 SP who will pitch in the first week or so unless rotations haven’t been set yet.
I do NOT like this new look. Takes way too long to load.

There is no games played info on the site, just like we all complained about in hoops. The only way to have any clue if you are on pace or exceeded limits is on via a random button on the app. A hugely important piece of info, just not included. Ridiculous.
You also can't search a player name in the top right on the My Team page which i found useful.

How about the move button active for players in games being played.

Where is the s for starter?
Plus no stats for 2018, 2019, last week, last two weeks, last month.

Randy, now's the time to sell high. His unlikely hot start may have created a few more fools who believe in this guy. You will look like a genius. GET RID OF THAT BUM YELICH. You will thank me later.

I have the beginnings of a program that will pull in your roster from a ESPN league and show which players are in the starting lineup - and which are not.
The formatting is still simplistic, and I hope to eventually add some other info to the display as well (e.g., gametime, postponed, etc.), but so far it seems to do its basic job pretty well. I also hope to be able to incorporate a display of actual games played by slot at some point.
I currently have it set up for RIBC, G20, and RIBC-AAA. I can easily add RIBC-AA if someone can tell me the ESPN league ID for that league. (It is specified as part of the league URL.)
Here it is: http://dailybaseballdata.com/cgi-bin/rosterCheck.pl
Posted lineup data is updated every 10-15 minutes during the day. Even if ESPN gets it act together and posts starters, I have found in the past that my data is often available earlier than what was posted at ESPN (although not always).
Let me know what other data would be useful to include. For now, I'm showing all hitters (starters and bench) plus all pitchers on the bench. I figure this will easily point out any players in your lineup that are not starting, and any bench players that are.

Very cool!
Maybe display something for player when no game scheduled, which will also help us see all in one place if there is a starting bench player fill in
I’m using sites like rotowires daily mlb lineups to cross reference since they are also ahead of espn.

Tried to move Molina into C spot, Alfaro to bench
Got red line:
“Transaction type can only be managed in future scoring periods.”
It’s 1:45, Molina’s game is 2:15, Alfaro is 7:15.
Say what?

Matt Shoemaker? Seriously?! Damn, you are one snakebit dude! So fragile. :(
I put in a waiver claim for I Kennedy and lose him to holt because he is lower than me in the standings and has a higher waiver priority. What kind of wacky world is this? I would investigate our team pages and look for new players on ESPN but I have a job and can't wait for the f#c$ing web pages to load!

If anybody is looking to add some SB or SV, I wouldn't mind trading away a closer and/or Billy Hamilton or Jarrod Dyson.
I'd ideally be looking for RBI/SLG and/or starting pitching in return.

mmikulka - I'd be interested in a closer. I took a quick look at your roster but I'm not sure exactly what kind of hitter you're looking for. If you want to shoot me an offer maybe we can get the ball rolling.

Trey Turner, thank you for your third home run of the season. I am glad that Captain Canuck drafted you before I had the chance to make that mistake (though it hasn't kept the Maple Leaf from being in first place for most of the season). Your homer gave Sean Doolittle a nice win, a stupid category but one that counts. Now, go out there and get hurt again.

It’s time for me to trade away some SB: ideally I want to give up Billy Hamilton (not asking much in return) but Dyson is also available. I’m looking for starting pitching or an RBI producer.

103 - That’s a very short sided way of looking at it, but here’s my thoughts on the deal. I’m way ahead in IP pace and have a need for speed. Dyson fits the bill and I’m confident I can still find SP value through streaming as needed.

Yelich ain’t gonna be hitting any more homers for U. 😏😵

When you do come visit ... the Roasterie is so old school. All the cool kids hang out at the new hipster coffee place in town. But if it's an heirloom you want....
And I seem to remember reading a few years ago about you having an unhealthy fascination with Hisashi Iwakuma. If that's really the case ... I've got a bobble head for you!

And in a fun note that only a few could appreciate ... I was able to catch Felix twice in Everett, and once in Tacoma last month.
Three minor league games ... three hot dogs ... six beers ... still cheaper than one visit to see the Mariners at T-Mobile Park. And you can sit so close that you can smell the suck.

Congrats to Holt for winning it all very decisively... and nicely done to the other folks from our league who qualified for promotion to the bigs...Also kudos to those who will be back in AAA. Have a feeling I’m back to AA next year... so look out.
Thanks to Guru and the commish Judy.

Thanks guys. There were a lot of very competitive teams in this league. Very recently there were something like 7 teams around 105 and higher if I'm not mistaken. I was buried in the lower to middle part of the pack for a large chunk of the season. I owe a lot to G. Cole and J. Flaherty being so completely lights out after the AS-break.
Also, the juiced ball made it easier than ever to find useful bats among the free agents. But, useful pitchers among the free agents, that was a different matter!

Haha. Thanks but I think a lot of it is out-nerding the competition. While others are spending their time tending to their social relationships with others, I'm the type of jackass you'll see out at the lake on the weekend with my phone out researching the minor league splits of some catcher just to squeeze in an extra 4 at bats the next day while my beer is getting warm. It's really sad.

Yea, my hitting stats kinda died. Did not realize I was so far behind in games played. Blew the IP, but knew about that.
Congrats Holt.
