IDP LEAGUE DRAFT RULES
-Standard serpentine draft, 22 rounds.
-Draft hours are 8am to 10pm CDT (US), 7 days/week
-Time limit for each pick: 4 hours during draft hours. Draft positions 1 and 12 get 6 hours to make their 2 picks on the turnaround.
-Any league member may assign a BAPAY after tie has expired (see below for guidelines).
-No BAPAYs in the two rounds (within reason; Commish discretion).
BAPAY LISTS
--Offensive BAPAYs determined by Yahoo's list, sorted by "Actual" (not the default "Projected").
--Defensive BAPAYs are determined by sorting the player list for that position by 2009 Fantasy Points (far right column).
[Note: Yahoo "Actual" rankings for offense are based on 2009 NFL stats applied through our league's scoring rules. This means, among other things, that no rookie can be assigned via BAPAY.]
IF YOU ARE BAPAYED: You have the right -- within 12 picks picks or 24 hours, whichever comes first -- to change your assigned BAPAY to any still-available player. The BAPAYed player goes back into the draft-eligible pool. Any and all intervening picks by other teams stand.
KEEP THINGS MOVING
1. Immediately PM the next manager to let him know he's on the clock. Don't forget to clean out your PM box.
2. If you're going to be away, send a prioritized list to one or two people to cover your next pick. You can also post notes publicly, like "Bapay me a TE" or similar.
When you post your pick, copy/paste the full draft list, preferably followed by a note like "PM sent to NextGuy." Oh, and don't forget to clean out your PM boxes.
IF THERE'S A PROBLEM
...such as the selection of an already-chosen player or an incorrectly-assigned BAPAY, the draft stops until things are resolved.
A couple more random thoughts:
--Try to find a "BAPAY Buddy" to leave your picks with. I work from home and am rarely away from my computer for long.
--No table talk, please! If a player has been overlooked, just ignore the topic until he's been chosen.
--For those using Yahoo research tools, I will try to make regular uploads of our selections. We will start a separate thread where people can keep their rosters.
