What happens once the 120minute time limit comes into play if you haven't made your pick or setup a draft list? Do you drop down the order in that round or have a pick automatically assigned to you?

If you don't have players set up in a list, it will pick one for you.

Thanks, knowing that a good 6-8 hours of each draft window will occur while I'm asleep it makes getting the list together quite important.

what player?? the best posible or one randomly??

[Chappy]

Statslab creates its own list through a ranking formula and it will take the player it thinks is the best available...  it just might not take things like age into account so it could be a 39 year old star or something like that.

best possible.

so well know someone missed it when the 40 year olds start coming off the board.

[mukerka]

thanks to both of you!

does it takes things into acount like his position?? if you already have four 3Bs for exampol, it will take one more??

There are two ways Matt can set the draft timer to work....

If he checks the box for "Adjust Pick Time With Each Pick", then knowing when your pick is coming can be really unpredictable; basically it starts the 90 minute window immediately after each pick is made.

If he leaves it unchecked, then the windows are fixed from the moment the first pick happens, so if your pick is due between 3:30 and 5:00 PM Tuesday it's due at 5:00 PM Tuesday even if everyone before you picks very quickly (of course you can make your pick before 3:30, that's just when the deadline of the person before you is).

I don't know if I'm explaining this very clearly.

I do not believe it takes position into account...  I think the in-game draft engine does though... so once we are finished picking players manually and want the CPU to finish for us, Matt should probably do that part in-game.

That makes sense, would like to know which option is ticked so I can plan my alarm clock for the first few rounds if needed
