1995 BLB Amateur Draft

[Clay]

I agree with Clay.

It goes A's...then B's. Here is the supplemental order:

Team - Wins
Maine - 80
Philly - 83
LA - 87
Batavia - 87
Batavia - 87
Pitt - 89
Indy - 96
Miss - 99
Miss - 99
Baltimore - 83
LA - 87

I assume the A's stop after Mississippi and Baltimore and LA had B's. Unfortunately 11 isn't real great with compensation and has several bugs which took until 12.4 to get fixed.

No. The B's are supposed to be a different round. We just didn't have any B's (again). At least, that's how it's supposed to be. If there are B's picking in that round, the whole system is broken.

Yeah, both my sammy's are type a comp. Not sure but I also think it has to do with when the FA was signed as well.

[Delandis]

No my pick should've been Type A. From my trade thread for Donato from WC:

Confirmed. Good working with you Jistic.


Did I overpay for Donato? Probably.

But a couple things to note:

1. I think even as this point in his career, he is a better starter than 3 or maybe 4 out of 5 of my starters. Through Sept. and Oct., I'm thinking he gives us 4 or 5 starts. That will be 4 or 5 better opportunities to win.

2. He's a lefty and we play in Phillips Field. Of course he's not O'Moore, but his presence will help with the remaining home games we have.

3. Plus even if he doesn't work out, I get a Type A sandwich for the guy, plus the 3rd and 4th.

Tynan Brown was a Type B FA. I should get compensation for that.

[Clay]

Tynan Brown was a Type B FA. I should get compensation for that.

Did u get an email that said that?

[Lintyfresh85]

Did u get an email that said that?

Honestly, I couldn't tell you.

I just know even during the FA period, his compensation was listed as Type B.

I'll have to see about restoring from and old file before Fri

[Lintyfresh85]

It's not a big deal.

Just thought he was a Type B.

[Clay]

It's not a big deal.

Just thought he was a Type B.

I'll check if I can.

I have an idea to track it better next season.

[Matt]

After doing some searching on the OOTP boards there are more than a few threads which say compensation is useless in 11 because of bugs. Order is messed up/picks get "lost"/etc...

We'll just have to track it better I suppose.

[Gyrodork]

Just a heads-up... I'm not going to have access to the game until very late Thursday night. I should be able to get at least enough picks for the first round in by 1:00 am Friday. Hopefully I don't get autoed in the 1st round.

[liquidcrash]

The draft will start Friday, November 11th at 4p.

Is this correct?

If I'm looking at the schedule correctly, the Draft will take place on June 11th in game, during Sim 9. That's supposed to happen on November 14th, assuming there's no delay.

Just seems to be cutting it a little close, I'm not sure we're getting a draft done in a weekend.

Or are we starting tomorrow, the 4th?

[Carlos]

If we're starting tomorrow that really messes me up as I thought we had that extra week to fill our lists.

Oh, well, it's not that serious. I'll live, obviously. It's a good question.

[Z]

I was under the impression that we were starting next Friday, the 11th.

[Clay]

It was supposed to be tomorrow. My bad. We can wait.
