Is it envisioned that 2015 MSD draft picks are able to be included in trades in this period? anthak wrote: I like it. Im im also curious about MSD picks being allowed to be traded during the draft. I suggest they should be allowed to be. I also suggest the the draft to begin at sunset on the 21st. Being solstice, I feel it would be an interesting touch, and not much different to the proposal above. Yup, all normal assets to be traded, the MSD picks during the MSD will add a layer of complexity and may need me to manage aspects in running differently, but if we are going to test it we may as well test it properly. PSD2016 picks can also be traded but MSD2016 picks cannot be traded at this time. I am good with 5:08, would like midnight to stay midnight though, I'd hate the curtains to fade..
Look. Just do ANYTHING to keep the trade slut happy. The man has a button. Hold the draft in NY - the AFL is going to.
We have a situation regarding pick status that is going to occur but didn't get discussed during the MSD trial run. (a) All picks owned are tradeable and can be made usable, regardless of whether or not they were active at the start of the draft OR (b) Only the picks active when draft started are able to be traded or used to pick a player Initially I was leaning to (b) but this does mean some strict conditions around what type of trade is legal would have to apply and I'd like to ensure we all have a voice of some sort on this. Bear in mind, at the end of the draft regardless of (a) or (b) each team must be exactly 28, there is no delist period and this outcome would have to be factored into any trade. Before starting the PSD I'd like to get an indication of support for the open or closed book approaches. Poll about to open in new thread. Majority vote count midnight tonight will carry the day for this draft, regardless of how many votes we get, I don't want this to hold up the draft proceeding as scheduled. Can discuss any required revision post draft if needed.
