Hi all, Were going to start the draft Tuesday at noon EST. Please let us know if there are questions.
Also for Quebec and wombats as new owners we normally do at least a week of a waiting period for trades so you can acclimate to the league. Due to the proximity of the season and draft you will be able to start making deals as of this Friday morning

Just a heads up that the entry draft will kick off in about 23 hours at 12 EST tomorrow. It's set up correctly on here so let's do the draft on here (proboards) and please PM the next GM up (and select your pick from the pool on fantrax).

(and select your pick from the pool on fantrax). By this, do you mean we may add our picks to our Fantrax rosters ourselves, because I'm not aware of a list of players on Fantrax that ONLY shows this year's Entry Draft selectees.

Correct. You would just "claim" them essentially. I would not ally just do this on fantrax but it came up quickly and I'm not privy to last year's standings and won't have enough time to manually ensure all pick orders are correct for tomorrow.

Honestly, I've done both on line and off line Entry drafts and I prefer offline. The advantages of using the Fantrax draft tools (setting up a queue, setting auto pick) are often largely ignored by some GMs so it really just becomes a dashboard of frustration for me to watch. The clock seems less integral off line. I mean, I can't just sit there and watch the clock tick while guys on the clock are no-shows. So, if we can grab our own picks, I don't see a downside for moderators. So, glad to hear it....

In all seriousness it will work well. Most guys in here are vets and are all willing to help out. Just (for everyone) please make sure you pm the next GM and it will flow well
