2017 Top Gun sign-up thread

[britrock88]

Yes, Logan/Vince/Marmel, it is most definitely past time to do this. Starting the clock NO LATER THAN 10am EDT Tuesday (TOMORROW). Be ready!

Game Rules

1) Participants sign up to play in this thread. I will break up participants into groups to try to keep group sizes between 8 and 12 participants.
2) Each participant drafts a team of 6 players participating in the NCAA Tournament. Each participant must draft a player from a team seeded 10-16.
3) Participants' teams will be formed by a snake draft conducted in a separate forum thread.
-----a) The draft will start immediately after the Selection Show and run until complete. If not completed by Thursday morning, I will auto-fill participants' teams according to lists or my own judgment.
-----b) A draft clock will run from 10am to 6pm EDT each day. During this window, each participant will have 1 hour after the previous selection to draft a player. After 1 hour has elapsed, subsequent participants may cut in line to make selections. The skipped participant may back-fill their selection at any time. (NOTE: this rule relies on participants PMing the teams after them in the draft order. I will use discretion to resolve circumstances involving missed PMs and skipped picks.)
-----c) Please do not sign up if you are unable to 1) participate during the day, 2) send in lists, or 3) be content to back-fill your way to a title like Karl can.
4) Participants' teams scores equal the sum of the teams' players' scoring in the NCAA Tournament.
5) Play-in games do not count towards the standings unless a player is drafted before his team's play-in game and his team loses its play-in game.

As I mentioned in the other thread, because I don't visit regularly here anymore, looking for someone to step up for 2018. Will be happy to give whatever overview/information/resources necessary to facilitate.

Thinking at this point that I may start a draft with the first 8 to sign up, then tack entries 9-12 on the back end of the order, freak out if/when we get to 13-15 entries, then split off the back half at 16.

Long story short: if you're an early sign-up, you may start drafting earlier than tomorrow morning. I'll keep you posted.

[murrayyyyy]

Screw it, let's do this.

[Vince, Pt. II]

In!

[Chief Rum]

Inyo County, California

[stevew]

I'm in but as #9 or 10. I can't possibly pick until much later tonight

[ntndeacon]

in like Flint

[britrock88]

Okay. Gonna fire up with 10. Will add newcomers to the back of the draft order as we go, but split off if we get to 16. Thanks for your flexibility!

[britrock88]

RNG gives me 2, 9, 10, 1, 6, 7, 8, 3, 5, 4. I'll move stevew to the back of the round as requested. Modified order is 2, 10, 1, 6, 7, 8, 3, 5, 4, 9. Look for a draft thread shortly.

[henry296]

i'll be in again if you get enough.

[B & B]

I been in this for years, was looking for the signup thread last night and this morning.

What the shits, Yo?

If we get two groups it looks like...

[britrock88]

Because of how late-developing this is, I'll just keep adding sign-ups to the back of the draft order unless/until we hit 16.
