Not a fan on my spot in this draft. Gonna need some luck
Also Sharon's second straight year with a top two pick, I believe. I tried to get her to trade that pick (basically the 9 and 11 pick for 2 and 19 if you think about it lol) but it's clearly not happening. *Shrug*. I'll make number 9 work.

I’d consider trading my #1 in L2 for another relatively early pick...

At least my league 3 pick isn't god awful. Definitely no more kid picks next year please. I somehow always end up with the 7th/8th pick when we do these dumb games like this and fucking marble madness.

Crap, panzer figured out that the only reason we have fun with the draft order is to screw him out of a good pick. Guess we have to stop.

It's not fun though. And it's never been fun. It's this try hard way to make it quirky. I don't watch the videos, I think it's garbage. But whatever, it just sounds like sour grapes about a bad pick but I'd much rather hit random draft order than do some bullshit random game that no one actually cares about that seems to spit out virtually the same order every year.

Like idk, I guess I should of been less passive aggressive about it before hand and just straight up say "I fucking hate this, don't do it this way"

This intrigued me so I ran some """analysis.""" Two people in L1 have the same pick this year that they did last year (pabs and myself), and three people across all leagues have the same pick they did in 2016. Seems within the margin of error to me, but I'm no mathematician.

I don't like my pick position, but I still like the quirky little games we do. Maybe have your second kid do it next year mith.

I don't like pick #1 anyway?

But sure I don't mind inheriting a kid of this is what it means.

I don’t know if I like it, but I guess I’ll find out on Thursday...I’ve never had a pick earlier than fifth before.

There's less stress involved in getting a top pick right and it might be even better to get a low pick since you are getting a bottom 1st rounder and a fringe first round pick.
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I love me the quirky methods I just find them to have an inherent bias against where I would like to draft.

Also need to be added to L1 whenever.

Saturday is the only day the non-dupes can all make it. You can autodraft (or we can find another dupe, or drop another dupe and go to 8).
