Seems like a lot of interest for sheep but no one willing to run it so hear me out.

A random order is drawn before the draft as usual and everyone gets to be the mod for one round according to the order, in which they obviously don't participate. As far as the category goes they can pick any one from the previous sheep drafts.

I can run/help run the draft if needed

Sweet!

All aboard the sheep wagon!

 

[green_smiley]

Maybe @antohan can help to come out with some "challenging" criteria for sheep draft

That’s a decent idea but vested by self-interest. It’s always useful to have a draft overlord because inevitably there are some grey areas with the more interesting criteria.

 

[Gio]

In for a sheep (as long as the deadlines aren’t too mental)

Registrations full.

Registrations full.

Sheep draft always does that to you.

 

[antohan]

Go with that and I'll play grey area overlord (inc. that key grey area: sheep assignments). Don't have time for modding/playing but can settle those no probs.

The issue I see @Moby is that with 16 managers you would have 15 rounds. Some of the best sheep rounds are those involving two players and getting stuck in a certain game.

1) Where's the incentive to propose a two player round you are not in?
2) Managers would wind up with different number of players
3) If some of the rounds have two players squads would be massive (18-20 players)
4) Sheep would be irrelevant as you would be fine so long as you don't get 8-10 of them.

I like the notion of collaborative self-modding but I would be wary of the issues above.

 

[Raees]

In as well.

 

[antohan]

Sure, no probs. Have a few things in mind that could work really well.

 

[Edgar Allan Pillow]

In as well for a sheep.

 

[Šjor Bepo]

will most likely skip this one, can help running it if smiley and anto need help

 

[Skizzo]

I'll be in for it. Or a reserve if it's already filled

 

[Paolo Di Canio]

The draft hasn't started yet, I think you have a week at the very least.

 

[P-Nut]

Only problem with the self modding is people would try and limit to a poor selection of players to hinder everyone else.

One thing, has anyone got a link to the last sheep draft so I can see how it works?

[shrike]

Hey guys can I get in on the draft action as well ? We just finished our noob draft and would love to play it in the mains. If its full then I can assist someone or even help run the game.

 

[Šjor Bepo]

so many new faces, we should do a sheep draft with 32 players

 

[Ecstatic]

I'm the winner of the last sheep draft so please consider me as the big favorite especially if I have a better right-back than Camacho

 

[Physiocrat]

Carnage. Ali Dia would be considered a great sheep to be blessed with

 

[Ecstatic]

A suggestion

Let's have 18 or 20 managers. Then, a poll to choose the 4 worst teams before the start of the games

 

[harms]

Nah. It's a shame to pick a team and not get a chance of presenting it.

 

[Paolo Di Canio]

Check out the opening post in this thread (or go to the #1 threadmark), it has the links to all drafts, including the sheep ones

Thanks Harms, I will give this one a miss unfortunately, I prefer a simpler kind of draft with players to play under a certain manager etc, thanks for asking though

 

[Indnyc]

We could do 24 teams and split into 8 groups of 3. Group winners move to quarter finals.
