WFB Comments on Vikings @ Steelers Game Rigging
PuppyPuncher:"It sure was nice enough of Roger Goodell to let the refs from Ark-Florida officiate the Vikings-Steelers game"
NoNonsenseCoach:"As a Steelers fan living in Pittsburgh I can still admit that tripping penalty was a complete ghost call."
Simonds:"The tripping call was awful, yes, but there were a number of other absurd calls that went against the Vikings, including a DEFENSIVE delay of game penalty against the Vikings only called after a failed attempt to convert a third and 2 by the Steelers. Even the commentators were utterly floored that the refs made that call."
Wraith36444:"A shady tripping call on Minnesota essentially gave the game to the Steelers. The Vikings were the better team, but it is too hard to beat a decent team and the refs. Oh and Harvin is the man."
MaineMan:"I have to agree that it was an awful call and that it changed the outcome. Overall a great game by the Vikes and tragic that the well-deserved victory was stolen away like that."

Originally posted by Carnack View PostRequire everybody to submit their Big Board before the Draft and shortening the Day Two selections to one hour. If they are not here, then pick from their Big Board, top-down. At least that way the absentee GM's are still making their own choices and you know they have actually looked at the overall Draft.
If there are concerns about Big Board secrecy, then write a script to read a common Excel-based format and update teh three threads.
For example:
Generate the Big Board on a standardized, Excel-based form.
Have the GM's fill it out and submit it.
Produce a small script that reads the Excel tables (very common), reading the top cell down to the bottom which would be a GM's next selection by default.
On the "Players Selected" thread use the same Excel format to list all Players and have the script do a "compare routine" to see if a GM's next selection is listed.
If the player has been selected, then move to next cell and read the next player a GM has listed and "compare" again.
If a player is available for selection, then copy that Player to "Picks Only"; "Player Picked"; and the "Selections" threads.
That's it.
Completely automated and confidential using a very basic script.If you like quality gaming, conversation, and crazy antics of Chunder, the live stream of Chunderfluff, live, on Twitch.com. Come join the fun at http://www.twitch.tv/chunderfluff#/w...rce=20121004en

I think if no one has picked and a mod picks for a team then the GM should be allowed to change it. If someone else picks then it doesnt get changed.If you like quality gaming, conversation, and crazy antics of Chunder, the live stream of Chunderfluff, live, on Twitch.com.

Originally posted by Craig Smith View PostI still think that next time around an exact time should be given for a pick. None of this 2 hours to make a pick crap when you have no clue when your 2 hours will start.
I have tried to be active this time around, and was active for the last one, but this time around i would check, and only 4 picks happenend in the last 24 hours and i am still 12 picks away. I check back a day later and 15 picks have happened and i was skipped.
Simply put pick 1 due at 7 pm est, pick 2 at 8pm, 3 at 9 pm on an exact date, set before the draft begins.
It eliminates the having to come and see if you are on the clock. You know exactly when you have to come and make your pick and exactly how long you have to come and pass off a big board...Originally posted by thetechnocrat View PostI like this idea. That way you know if you can't make it. You either pm a big board to an op or to an assistant gm.Originally posted by ZN0rseman View PostI concur.Originally posted by 49ersfan View PostI have seen that on other forums, but people miss picks with that system too. We might just have to admit we aren't the NFL and some people won't get on in time. I like these suggestions, though.Originally posted by Leo Fender View PostI like the way you are thinking!sigpic

I have asked his advice on picks. I was actually going to draft the guy he suggested but he was gone. Like it or not he is the man on this site and better than many highly trained draftniks. I think he has proven himself.If you like quality gaming, conversation, and crazy antics of Chunder, the live stream of Chunderfluff, live, on Twitch.com.

I say yes.
(Note: Times shown are expiration times at which time a mod makes a selection for that team.)
Round 4
1: NYG - 10:00AM
1: DEN - 10:30AM
2: DEN - 11:00AM
3: OAK - 11:30AM
If Denver picks one player prior to 10:30, they still have until 11:00 to make their other selection.
If Denver picks both of their selections right at 10:30... Oakland still has until 11:30 to make their selection.
If the Giants picks at 10:05 (after a mod selection was made for him) and Denver hasn't picked yet, the mod selection is overruled and the pick made by the Giants stays.
If the Giants pick at 10:05 (after a mod selection was made for him) and Denver has already made one of their picks (at 10:04) the mod selction stands and the selection by the Giants owner is deleted.sigpic
