Next draft, our team names should be named after beers.

Team Shocktop sounds pretty badass

Draft B this time around is Slowww... we can have our draft done and games played before they are.  Once we are done with our draft how will the format of games be set?

Problem is that a moderator can't be on all the day to make the pick automatically, also it would break some team's strategy by making a pick.

We're supposed to use strategy???

Strategy is suspended while titanpad is down.  If it isn't back up soon we'll go to plan B, rhesus monkeys.

Blame Junkers... he thinks that it is important for me to be introduced and learn new addictive games while I am in the last semester of my masters program

I agree with Junkers

I find it slightly unfair that 1st and 6th teams have the ability to choose 2 / 3 / 4 cards in a single post while others choose 1 / 1 / 2 respectively . This enables the 1st and 6th team to be able to choose a full combo without the fear of being interrupted.

The also have the longest wait inbetween picks.

I don't think there are any better options than snake drafting format.  If it makes you feel better, the team drafting 5th (which is arguably the worst position) has won both previous Drafts.

Suggestion: make the "snake" start from the middle (3rd, 2nd, 1st, 1st, 2nd..)

Edit: this would make 5th even worse, so i suggest this (3, 2, 1, 6, 5, 4, 3...)
