The Double Draft

[Cal?]

So is it GMT or BST?

 

[Ecstatic]

EAP lives in the US so he certainly means GMT imho

 

[P-Nut]

So we start at 11 England time?

 

[Joga Bonito]

Breitner transferred to Real Madrid knowing that Joga won't pick him if he played in a foreign league, bold choice. No Breitenigge

Dissapointing really, but I can't really say there was 'that' player which I would have preferred to lose in my side - like quite a few had in their sides. The likes of Burgnich and Rivelino would have been 'easier' to lose, but they were arguably more important tactically whilst Breitner is relatively easier to replace as there are loads of quality B2Bs around (just not on the same level obviously). Losing half of Breitenigge was the real bummer though.

Just getting a list started as I understand it there are no problems with this (from reading the last auction) just that the time won't start until 10GMT

There is, I would advise for you to delete them - you have an unfair advantage in making the first bid (so the others have to up your bids while they could've saved a few millions if they were to nominate them first)

The auction starts in 5 mins if I'm not mistaken?

Edited. My mistake something I saw done on the last one and thought it would be OK.

 

[P-Nut]

Think people are taking GMT and not British time

 

[harms]

In one hour if eap meant gmt when he said gmt (I think it's a fair assumption that he did).

And it doesn't matter when, you can't start before the deadline because it gives you unfair advantage

 

[Enigma_87]

This is a bit confusing. So we're starting in one hour not now?

 

[P-Nut]

Someone fancy posting the finalised squads and blocked players please. Can't do it at the moment. A thread mark on it would be useful aswell.

 

[Chesterlestreet]

This GMT/BST business is ridiculous.

It's about the tenth time now there has been some kind of issue with it.

 

[P-Nut]

This is a bit confusing. So we're starting in one hour not now?

Yeah seems that way. Also what times are we using for the bids. Be extremely confusing for anyone in England using GMT and not BST.

 

[Chesterlestreet]

As Gio (I think it was) pointed out the last time, draft standard has been London time - not GMT as such.

But whatever - let's wait an hour.

However, this should be the last time there's any confusion about something as simple as this.

 

[Enigma_87]

Yeah seems that way. Also what times are we using for the bids. Be extremely confusing for anyone in England using GMT and not BST.

I thought we would use the forum time as it's easier to follow.

@Edgar Allan Pillow can you threadmark it(your post) or move it to the OP as well.

 

[P-Nut]

Cheers. @Gio would you be alright taking my picks seen as you're not involved and I'm going to be on a job at 11.

 

[harms]

I thought we would use the forum time as it's easier to follow

What's the forum time? My redcafe time is GMT +3 for example

 

[Edgar Allan Pillow]

GMT - Greenwich Mean Time. It's explicit.

After Brexit, the rest of the world ignores British Shit Time.

 

[harms]

pointed out the last time, draft standard has been London time - not GMT as such.

Yeah, but even after that discussion EAP in the auction announcement explicitly said GMT.

 

[Chesterlestreet]

Well, then start using UTC (as I've said a million times).

GMT is not a time standard, it's a time zone. And London happens to be on GMT for large parts of the year, which makes it potentially very confusing to use GMT as the standard time for drafts.

Either stick with London time - or use UTC.

 

[Edgar Allan Pillow]

What's the forum time? My redcafe time is GMT +3 for example

Even the Caf is in GMT ffs!

Is everyone playing from UK?

 

[Edgar Allan Pillow]

Time switched to BST. The auction will start at 11:00 AM BST Wed, 20th July 2016.

 

[Ecstatic]

When I google 'GMT time', I always have the same answer

 

[Gio]

Ah the good old time debate.

 

[Ecstatic]

Template?

Player #1 - Player Name - Time BST

Tag the manager A if you're the manager B

Player Name - Manager B - 11:30 AM - 20 M
Player Name - Manager A - 11:00 - 10 M

 

[Gio]

Yes that should be fine, although I'll be unavailable mostly from 11.30 onwards.
