Broncomania GM Draft: Official Rules and Discussion Thread

[Dream]

Official Rules and Regulations


What about free agency?

• There will be no free agency period, it'll be far too complicated. If you want to add players; feel free to trade them. Acquire more picks and players via trades to fill the needs your team is looking for!

Rules on Trading

• Players and picks are allowed to be traded; however keep trade proposals realistic. Any trade proposals need to be sent to Dream (myself) to be decided on.
• Myself along with other members will decide on the trades. A council of five people will be voting. I will choose five people who I can trust and have experience with the mock drafts in the past. A vote needs 3/5 votes to pass. Voters on the council who are involved in trades must abstain from voting.
• GM's can only be involved on one proposal at a time. Please, do not try and do multiple trades at once.
• No three-way trades. When trade proposals are sent, both agreeing parties must send me PM's.

Rules on Picks

• When you are on the clock you will have three hours to make your selections. If you will not be there at the time of your selection, send me a board of your top five players you'd like to pick. We want this draft to go fast, so cooperation is appreciated.
• If you miss your pick (three hours are up) everyone behind you is fair game to draft in the correct order. You can make your pick at any time; but cannot take players already chosen after your missed selection if they have been selected by those behind you.
• The clock stops at 12:00 PM EST; and will start up at 10:00 AM EST the following morning. Picks can be made during this time, but teams and GM's will not be penalized for inactivity during this period.
• Picks must be made in this format: The Miami Dolphins select: Player, Position -- University
• Please do not post pictures, as we have some members who are still on dial-up.
• If you pick before your scheduled time, you will be penalized five draft spots; and must wait until that time to select. This is to uphold integrity and fairness.

Rules on Posting

• Keep on topic in each of the threads. Selection thread is for selection, this thread is for discussion regarding those selections, and trade talk. Please keep on topic. It will alleviate immoderation.

5* Thread

is this the thread we can put our players who are on the block

Hey Dream I had a question, hypothetically, let's say that I, the St. Louis Rams, might be looking to trade down.

Would I post something like that in here or on the pick making thread when I go on the clock.

Speaking of which are the Dolphins on the clock right now or were you just setting up the thread?

[fraguela09]

Exactly... how should we go about discussing possible trade scenarios? Especially when we want to see who is on the board when our selection arrives?

For instance, I'm the PATS... I have a high pick. I may want to trade down ir certain players are gone... OF COURSE, i need to have an idea of what trades are there to be made... SO, if I want to pull the trigger on a trade... Do I need to do it before I pick, or will I be allowed to do so when I'm on the clock?


Forgive me for such a pedestrian question... first time involved here!

I suspect Dream is just setting up the rules so people can get on the same page, at least that is what I think?! I would love to have this weekend to get more info on my team and get set up.

I can definitely make a trading block thread.

I'm sorry guys, I had to go run to my higher up's office a little out of the ways on campus and just received word that I got a job for the summer, I'll be working hard on things.

Would you like to flip a coin for the Falcons and Raiders (Falcons - KC if neccesary)

[Dream]

The order is set as is, it rotated the picks throughout the rounds (as you can) see so it's far for those teams who are to be determined by flip.

How is the 3 hour limit going to work say after midnight? Are we going to have to be on at 3am, or will there like be a start-stop time?

Oh dang, I forgot to add that. The clock stops at 12:00 PM EST; but people can make picks then, but the next person isn't on the clock until 10:00 AM the next day. I'll put that up there.
