@chman82 @Acid Burn @RIZZYX buddy if you guys want you can PM me your Draft Pick for Legend Batsman in 03 Top Options, it will speed up the draft process..its not necessary, but if you do it, draft will be complete more smoothly.

As in this league you are picking player one category at a time, so it is easy for you to pick the players than if you had to pick one among 130 players..Don't forget there is 12 More Rounds to go after this round, so if & when possible do hurry up..I dont want to create any unnecessary pressure & I will completely respect the Time Limit of 08 Hrs as mentioned in the rule, but I will be glad if we can cover most of the Draft by Sunday Night (25th May)..

I also brought this up in the other Tourney thread , but its neccesary info to ensure all games will be played against each other.

Can everyone state their type of connection and NAT Type , so that we can be sure there will be no clashes.

Myself :
ADSL 4Mb - Wifi Connection ( Buggy>Should be fixed Patch No. 2)
NAT Type 2 - All good. (Works with All NAT Types , but sometimes NAT Type 3 refuses to connect.

How will this help? Every player in the tournament has to play almost every other player anyway.

Exactly, even if someone has 512 Kbps speed, we cannot ask him not to play with us..If you have Internet connections that's all we need. We will have few practice matches among ourselves before the tournament (After the Patch-2 Release), we will check at that time if games are still buggy (If it is, we have to live with is), and if its not, then nothing better than that..

BTW, for your information I have 08 MBPS speed, and I run my games through WiFi connection, and I can never have weird connection as that is not possible (I dont want to do it)...

@chaman82 buddy just in case you are still online, I will be obliged if you can pick your Draft Pick from Legend Batsman..

@chaman82 bro its really strange you are showing online for last 40/50 minutes, but you are not bothered about picking your player from the Draft? I was expecting more commitment and understanding among 10 of us to conduct this Draft & league in best way possible..If you are online, why you taking so much time mate, as only after you pick the next in line can pick his draft..Trust me it wont even take 30 seconds for you to choose and mention your draft player...

 

[RIZZYX]

Whilst you are waiting for Chaman82 you can always move onto the 2nd round for spinners, you already know my choice so Acid Burn can take his pic? And then chaman82 can take 2 pics, 1 for legend and 1 for spinner?

Yes I can do it, but I would like to see how long @chaman82 takes to pick his player (Even as he came online about 90 minutes ago)..Its not about Draft, its about something else...I hope you can understand...


I need to know this for the future of this Tournament..The sooner I know about the attitude & commitment level of managers playing in this league, the sooner I will be in a position to take a stand and some tough decision..and oh boy, can I be tough when its needed, we will see...

We will never ask anyone not to play , that would be cruel .

What we do need to know is if everyone will in fact be able to play with everyone else. Hence we need to know the NAT Type of the participants. For example , what are you gonna do if me and @Gentoras cannot play because he is on NAT Type 3 and I`m on NAT Type 2 ? Share points ?

While we have some time , why not try and fix possible glitches. I for one dont want to play a glitchy laggy game , whilst I know that the guy on the other side could do something to alleviate it.

Oh and btw , I dont wanna switch to a wired connection as well , as it will involve 25 meters of LAN cable running around my house through 2 walls. But if this is whats required , I will have to bite the bullet , thats just me.

I got your point and we may do this exercise once we are though with Draft and before we start our Tournament...

As of now my biggest concern is whether @chaman82 is really interested/happy and want to/be able to be part of this league or he has some other priorities/commitments which are far more urgent and serious to him than playing online video game and picking draft in this league..I am searching for this answer, and once I get this answer & we are finish with the draft, we will do whatever test you want us to do to check our compatibility... ...

@chaman82 its a last and final warning to you..If you don't pick your 1st Draft player within Cut Off time of 2000 GMT/UTC time, you will be barred from picking in the next 04 Rounds (Spinner & Pace Bowler), and will only be allowed to pick again when we reach at All rounder Draft (At that time you will be allowed to pick together your 01 Legend Batsman/01 Spinner/03 Pacers along with usual All Rounder picks)..If you still remain unavailable, I wont have any other option but to remove you from this competition..

All other guys, if you think you will be unavailable for long duration, do send me PM with your pick options, so that we can finish this draft ASAP.....

Note: I have seen @chaman82 to be online for around 02 hrs during his time to pick the draft and I also sent him a PM urging him to pick his draft so that we can move ahead, but neither he bothered to pick his draft nor he replied to my PM....So, I don't have any other option but to impose this penalty on him...

You still have about 01 hr 30 minutes to pick your 1st player, if you still don't pick by this time, this penalty will come into force from 2000 GMT/UTC time..
