Virtanev GM game + Dispersal Draft Discussion Thread

[Addison Rae]

should we add two more rounds to the dispersal draft?

 

[member 202355]

Yes.

 

[Addison Rae]

and bump the cap to 90m?

 

[Gecklund]

and bump the cap to 90m?

Yes. Or a little bit more.

 

[member 202355]

Double yes to bumping the cap. No more than 90 million though.

I'm against bumping up the cap, there should be an element of strategy to the game rather than just adding whoever you want.

I agree. Bumping the cap is just going to allow us to get big names when we really shouldn't be able to pick up those players. Also adding another 2 rounds is just going to increase the amount of players on our team therefore increasing cap...

But if there is a increase of another 2 round then there should be an increase in cap.

I'd be opposed to anything over $85M.

 

[Addison Rae]

okay lets have a vote.

who's okay with increasing the cap

 

[LT]

I'm not.

 

[LT]

Why did Tampa pick? Did I miss a trade or something?

EDIT - Oh, the Drouin trade. I'm dumb.

 

[Gecklund]

I'm okay with raising the cap depending on how much. No more than 10.

 

[JonnyGraz]

If your going to increase the amount of dispersal rounds then increase the cap. If you aren't going to add rounds then don't move the cap.

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

Against raising the cap, already explained why.

 

[Dabeast]

Raise it

 

[Addison Rae]

sorry I was at soccer tryouts, in the car and will update the draft

 

[donut]

$85M max, even if we add rounds

 

[Black Noise]

Just to clarify are we going off of the 2014/15 cap hits?

The last couples pages gave me different answers.

Correct

 

[donghabs98]

85M is fair

 

[KuralySnipes]

Hey guys, I am actually going to resign. I am working 27 hours next week, and that and school is going to leave me no time to continue to play. Thanks so much, and sorry for this circumstance.

I think we got way off on the draft order... Does a commissioner mind checking it? I updated it, but there are a LOT of missed picks and the time isn't adding up.

This. I think we need a pause on the draft to get everything sorted. No idea why TBL made two picks and WPG made another one. Time doesn't add up at all.

Mathematically (I believe), it should be EDM on the clock until 8:31PM PST (that is all the picks after the Derek Stepan pick are skipped).

WPG's Nyquist should not count since it's nowhere near his 7th round pick. TBL made two picks when he only have one which confused/screwed most of this up.

I was under the assumption that teams who were skipped in the previous round were auto-skipped the next. I have no issue with the Nyquist pick being nullified though.

Yea, somehow this got ridiculously off track. Unless the clock changed, several picks were made when they shouldn't have been.

There's no need to rush this, guys.
