How much time does a GM have to pick once they’re on the clock? I assume the early rounds allow more time and then the window decreases in later rounds. True?
Dylan - Wind Dancers
6:38 AM
Day 1, we ROUGHLY give you 5 minutes. But GM's are expected to be attentive and mindful about other GM's time. Tomorrow, you will have essentially a minute with little leeway. Most people are on list or auto on day two since we fly pretty quickly.
Dylan - Wind Dancers
6:39 AM
If a GM is using up their entire 5 minutes each time, we'll start pushing you to be quicker because we have to make 5 rounds worth of picks in 3 hours

Best thing any GM can do is come prepared with a list
Dan - Ghosts
6:40 AM
That is, you can take the full five minutes if you need it, but try not to need it
Tim - Warriors
6:44 AM
Thanks, Dylan.
I try to maintain a “rolling” short list of 15-20 prospects that I keep updating as players are removed via picks by other GMs. That tends to minimize the suitable options when it’s my pick.
By tomorrow I will most likely switch to list/auto at some point. It always depends on the depth of a draft pool.
Dylan - Wind Dancers
6:47 AM
Yes, tomorrow if you are set to list or auto, I will make your pick straight away. Anyone wanting to make their own pick, should unselect those options.

Making your own is usually the best bet.

But you have a few decent coaches.

Remember you can mostly ignore reputation, looking the coaches ratings instead

The Board of the PEBA and the Commissioner want to first – and rightly so, thank all our fine GMs for making the PEBA So PEBAlicious! The core and success of this league has been the persistence of its GMs – be they old or new! Despite our differences in culture, upbringing, gaming theory, or opinion, we continue to create something wonderful. I Thank you for that!

7:58
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.

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!

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.

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 Borealis 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…

How much time does a GM have to pick once they’re on the clock? I assume the early rounds allow more time and then the window decreases in later rounds. True?
Dylan - Wind Dancers
6:38 AM
Day 1, we ROUGHLY give you 5 minutes. But GM's are expected to be attentive and mindful about other GM's time. Tomorrow, you will have essentially a minute with little leeway. Most people are on list or auto on day two since we fly pretty quickly.
Dylan - Wind Dancers
6:39 AM
If a GM is using up their entire 5 minutes each time, we'll start pushing you to be quicker because we have to make 5 rounds worth of picks in 3 hours

Best thing any GM can do is come prepared with a list
Dan - Ghosts

That is, you can take the full five minutes if you need it, but try not to need it
Tim - Warriors
6:44 AM
Thanks, Dylan.
I try to maintain a “rolling” short list of 15-20 prospects that I keep updating as players are removed via picks by other GMs. That tends to minimize the suitable options when it’s my pick.
By tomorrow I will most likely switch to list/auto at some point. It always depends on the depth of a draft pool.
Dylan - Wind Dancers
6:47 AM
Yes, tomorrow if you are set to list or auto, I will make your pick straight away. Anyone wanting to make their own pick, should unselect those options.

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.

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 Borealis 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…
