Comprehensive Knuckleballer report for the 2038 Draft:
There are none
11:07
Knuckle curves don't count!
Dylan - Wind Dancers
11:10 AM
In theory, most knuckleballers don't have it as a pitch when they are drafted. They are usually guys who struggle in some way in the minors/majors and then learn it. If anything, using CP to learn a Knuckleball would be somewhat accurate, but OOTP doesn't handle that change well.
Evan - Underground
11:12 AM
Find some poor bastard with poor stuff and great movement and add a knuckler to his repertoire
Dylan - Wind Dancers
11:15 AM
Problem is, knuckleballers are archetype pitchers so it's hard to replicate them.
11:16
Generally, OOTP creates them with low velocity and no fastball
Yuma
2:42 PM
Replicate, speculate! Bosh! I do wish OOTP would stop replicating the mistakes and weaknesses of that defunct league the MLB. I wish OOTP would stop using famous names to create new players. I wish OOTP were more imaginative and not so damn replicative.

RJ Ermola “assistant” Commissioner of the Planetary Extreme Baseball Alliance approaches the stage…
@channel: Welcome to the Asheville Hotel in beautiful Asheville, North Carolina for the 33rd Annual PEBA Draft! Our esteemed Commissioner asked that I lead today’s draft. Thank you for the opportunity to assist in today’s ceremony. It’s an honor for me to be at your service today and also the opportunity to welcome the future stars of baseball!!!

Yuma
9:53 AM
Cheers to RJ!
Chuck - Trendsetters
9:53 AM
Welcome to Draft Day!
RJ - Sandgnats
9:53 AM
The Board of the PEBA and the Commissioner want to first – and rightly so, thank all our fine GMs for making the PEBA an outstanding community!! The core and success of this league has been the persistence of it’s GMs – be they old or new! Despite our differences in culture, upbringing, gaming theory, or opinion, we continue to create something wonderful. Thank you for all you do to make our community as strong as ever!!
Yuma
9:54 AM
But especially us REALLY old ones, right?
RJ - Sandgnats
9:54 AM
especially you
@Yuma
9:54
For today’s first day of the draft we will attempt to complete 5 rounds, and GMs will be allotted approximately 5 minutes to make their top two round selections, with further rounds limited to approximately 2 minutes. We strongly encourage you, in the best interests of the league, to be prepared and make your selections with diligence and speed. Keeping an updated list is StatsLab is always a solid plan – especially if you will be absent or miss a pick.
9:54
If for any reason you need help please reach out to
@Dylan - Wind Dancers
and myself
@RJ - Sandgnats

Greg - Alleghenies
9:54 AM
I love Game Theory
RJ - Sandgnats
9:55 AM
Please note that the 5 minute time limit is, in theory, highly generous considering our 3 hour window for today’s draft, so please do your best to draft promptly!
Selections are to be made in StatsLab, by selecting the player you want to draft and clicking the draft button. You may very well need to refresh your browser when it’s your turn.
Yuma
9:55 AM
Should be a 30 second window!

Dylan - Wind Dancers
9:55 AM
I agree
Yuma
9:55 AM
If you got your list, you pick your player.
RJ - Sandgnats
9:56 AM
If you anticipate missing a turn – or will be leaving, please inform Dylan so we can be prepared to move forward quickly. Dylan is our champion behind the scenes today; please do your part to make his job a bit easier! Thank You!
James - Calzones
9:56 AM
I feel like two minutes is a fair compromise. I have my list together, but I like the additional time to second guess myself.
Yuma
9:56 AM
Kudos to Dylan!!!
Jaime - Kalamazoo
9:56 AM
Morning gentlemen. I am driving home now. 6 minutes away. First 5 picking should take the full 5
RJ - Sandgnats
9:57 AM
Slack will announce your pick in this channel, but PLEASE feel free to make that announcement yourself, as you see fit, and please discuss picks freely as I’m sure we ALL have opinions… Do keep in mind we will capture the log post draft, but any ‘nested-thread replies’ will be lost – for whatever that may be worth to you.
9:57
Dylan will be processing the selections behind the scenes, and we will attempt to give teams a heads up when they are ‘on-deck’ and ‘in-the-hole’, so do try to be aware and following things so we can move as quickly as possible – ‘be present’. Be patient with the Win-D’s and Crystal Lake picks, as we try to juggle two jobs here… Always try to have a back-up plan in the event the guy you are ‘locked in on’ is taken…
I think I’ve covered everything – any other questions or comments?
9:58
@Dylan - Wind Dancers
any last comments?
Dylan - Wind Dancers
9:58 AM
Nope
Frank - Amsterdam Lions

Comprehensive Knuckleballer report for the 2038 Draft:
There are none
11:07
Knuckle curves don't count!
Dylan - Wind Dancers
11:10 AM
In theory, most knuckleballers don't have it as a pitch when they are drafted. They are usually guys who struggle in some way in the minors/majors and then learn it. If anything, using CP to learn a Knuckleball would be somewhat accurate, but OOTP doesn't handle that change well.
Evan - Underground
11:12 AM
Find some poor bastard with poor stuff and great movement and add a knuckler to his repertoire
Dylan - Wind Dancers
11:15 AM
Problem is, knuckleballers are archetype pitchers so it's hard to replicate them.
11:16
Generally, OOTP creates them with low velocity and no fastball
Yuma
2:42 PM
Replicate, speculate! Bosh! I do wish OOTP would stop replicating the mistakes and weaknesses of that defunct league the MLB. I wish OOTP would stop using famous names to create new players. I wish OOTP were more imaginative and not so damn replicative.

The Board of the PEBA and the Commissioner want to first – and rightly so, thank all our fine GMs for making the PEBA an outstanding community!! The core and success of this league has been the persistence of it’s GMs – be they old or new! Despite our differences in culture, upbringing, gaming theory, or opinion, we continue to create something wonderful. Thank you for all you do to make our community as strong as ever!!
Yuma
9:54 AM
But especially us REALLY old ones, right?
RJ - Sandgnats
9:54 AM
especially you
@Yuma
9:54
For today’s first day of the draft we will attempt to complete 5 rounds, and GMs will be allotted approximately 5 minutes to make their top two round selections, with further rounds limited to approximately 2 minutes. We strongly encourage you, in the best interests of the league, to be prepared and make your selections with diligence and speed. Keeping an updated list is StatsLab is always a solid plan – especially if you will be absent or miss a pick.

Slack will announce your pick in this channel, but PLEASE feel free to make that announcement yourself, as you see fit, and please discuss picks freely as I’m sure we ALL have opinions… Do keep in mind we will capture the log post draft, but any ‘nested-thread replies’ will be lost – for whatever that may be worth to you.
9:57
Dylan will be processing the selections behind the scenes, and we will attempt to give teams a heads up when they are ‘on-deck’ and ‘in-the-hole’, so do try to be aware and following things so we can move as quickly as possible – ‘be present’. Be patient with the Win-D’s and Crystal Lake picks, as we try to juggle two jobs here… Always try to have a back-up plan in the event the guy you are ‘locked in on’ is taken…
I think I’ve covered everything – any other questions or comments?
