UGH, Draft Sheet was wrong.

Thanks to a couple folks, who were paying better attention than I was, noticed a few problems with the Draft results. I have a printed sheet that I will post. Something got lost in translation from the printer form to the online pick sheet.

I am redoing the online pick results to match what I have on the printed sheet. This should not change the results, just make them clearer. And, if it affects certain player picks, I will figure out what to do.

Sorry about that, folks! Stay tuned!

UPDATE (9:35pm CST, 03/10/13): UGH, so I discovered the main problem with my draft technique - I didn't keep a separate record of each round. So, when you look at the final tally (which does have a mistake, but I am fixing that), things don't seem to add up.

VolleyGod does *NOT* get "Chipper" as was listed. Instead, his pick for round 1 gets him Greg Maddux, as explained below.

As each player was selected, that player was eliminated from any other slots and the choices were collapsed to the left to fill the spaces left by those eliminated choices.  Therefore, when looking at the flat spreadsheet, it appears people with higher ranks may not have received the players they though they were getting because of the collapsing snake system.  In retrospect, as mentioned above, I should have recorded the results of each round in order for everyone to fully understand the system.

Please note: The spreadsheet lists the final player picks. They are **NOT** in the order in which they were picked, necessarily. Please note that "Player #" does **NOT** correspond to a draft round pick #. They are totally unrelated, as explained above and as seen below.

Here is how the draft went for the first round, and maybe that will shed some light on subsequent rounds:

wicked4life gets Dontrelle Willis
james.a.haynes gets Chipper Jones
trhdds gets Joe Charboneau
