Thanks and @Edgar Allan Pillow too.Besides what Edgar said, in the match between GS and Skizzo/Pat we didn’t count manager votes. So the match finished 9-7 instead of 9-9

I am going to make your life more difficult by saying that those in #1 and #16 could easily choose not to make their 2 consecutive picks at (around) the same timeGuys.. We are having trouble deciding on the interpretation of average pick times for chesterlestreet. Since he effectively gets two picks at the same time, should his average time be divided by 6 or still by 12?
After thinking about it my thoughts are it should be divided by 6 but please let me know if there are others who feel differently about it. It was my mistake that it wasn't clarified in the beginning of the draft

Yeah.. There isn't.. Onenil essentially did that.. Chester did not.. I have a view but i have tagged some regular neutrals to decide the outcome.. I think that is probably the best solutionI am going to make your life more difficult by saying that those in #1 and #16 could easily choose not to make their 2 consecutive picks at (around) the same time
There is no easy way out, so...good luck?
I realize.. This is not easy.. If we go by the strict interpretations then it probably should go to chester.. I have left it to some of the neutrals to give their view and then we can decide.. It is unfortunate and someone losing this way is the last thing i wantedIt's a tricky situation.
On one hand those at either end of the snake have the advantage to pick in successive turns, but then if you divide it into 6 they are disadvantaged in a way that if they aren't around at their pick time their average time will essentially get doubled due to being multiplied by 2.
If you multiply it by 6 then those at 2 and 15 will get the most benefits as they would know their next pick and can easily send in 2-3 options that would be safe considering they only have 2 picks before their turn, whilst that's not the case if you are asleep at the time #8 picks and you are #16 in the picking order for example.
Makes sense.Ok, lets apply mathematical logic to it.
1. Player number 1 or 16 get their double pick chance at minute 0.
2. The player is not online till minute x.
3. He comes online at minute x+1 and then picks 2 players after 99 more minutes and so posts x+100 minutes.
4. Where he gets the advantage or disadvantage is based on value of x
If x is 30, he gets advantage as he gets 2 super fast picks,
But if x is 300, he gets a disadvantage of 2 super slow picks.
So eventually it averages out and the number depends on how quickly he made those 6 picks which is what the concept of pick timings is about.
I think it should be divided by 6.
Thanks.. So one vote for divide by 6.Ok, lets apply mathematical logic to it.

It's really unfortunate to go into decider(#1 an #16 included in the game). It happens very rarely a game to end up in a tie, but just saw that it was really low scoring game and probably that played part in having already 2 games decided by pick time.I realize.. This is not easy.. If we go by the strict interpretations then it probably should go to chester.. I have left it to some of the neutrals to give their view and then we can decide.. It is unfortunate and someone losing this way is the last thing i wanted
I agree.. It should have been agreed upon but it isn't fair either way we look at it.. Which is why i feel letting neutrals who have no skin in the game is probably the best way to look at itIt's really unfortunate to go into decider(#1 an #16 included in the game). It happens very rarely a game to end up in a tie, but just saw that it was really low scoring game and probably that played part in having already 2 games decided by pick time.
Tough decision that probably should've been decided before we started the picking process otherwise we fall into scenarios of interpretation that would be really hard to produce a fair outcome.
But then again those happen really rare and often we can't encompass all possible scenarios from the beginning of the draft.
I'm sat on the fence alongside @Gio . You could just fanny out of making a decision regarding times (as I almost certainly would) and have an old school 'penalty shootout'. Although they were jettisoned for being shite...I realize.. This is not easy.. If we go by the strict interpretations then it probably should go to chester.. I have left it to some of the neutrals to give their view and then we can decide.. It is unfortunate and someone losing this way is the last thing i wanted
Another good thought.. But since we decided on average pick times, we should somewhat try sticking to thatHmm, could just avoid the issue of pick times and just open up "extra-time" voting for another 4-6 hours or something for undecided voters if @Edgar Allan Pillow and @Indnyc are okay with changing how to decide draws
Yeah.. And Chester didn't even have a single postIsn't 5-5 some sort of a record? Probably the lowest score I've seen in a draft game.
This or one of the matches from the Americas draft. Definitely a big difference in voter turnout when its not all big known names.Isn't 5-5 some sort of a record? Probably the lowest score I've seen in a draft game.
To be fair, also understandably the slowest draft to fill up the manager slots.This or one of the matches from the Americas draft. Definitely a big difference in voter turnout when its not all big known names.
Divided by 6. This was already decided in an earlier draft, even in the serie a one.tagging some regular neutrals to best decide the outcome. @crappycraperson @harms @idmanager @2mufc0
The match between tuppet and chester ended in a draw with average pick times to decide the winner. There isn't a clear whether we should divide chesters by 6 or 12 as he was no.16 so gets 2 picks at the same
Thank youDivided by 6. This was already decided in an earlier draft, even in the serie a one.
Nope.And that's for both ends.
There was a 2-0 once. Think it was a dead rubber from the 50s group stage.Isn't 5-5 some sort of a record? Probably the lowest score I've seen in a draft game.
So, on basis of decision just made, no.1 will be divided by 7 if (please God no), we have a tie?Nope.
1st picker has 7 times.
16th has 6.
