I think im missing something here. If we have 5 different drafts then this break isnt a snake draft but rather 5 seperate case breaks with 5 drafts? No?
i think he means its the same order for 1,3,5 and snake for 2,4 BUT for each ORDER you can pick again. so ie someone who picked a team at spot 4/28 can pick diff teams but they always have the same spot 4/28

The 5 separate drafts sound cool, but either way would be fine for myself.

I personally would like to have the same team for every break as well. It would suck to have the orioles for cases 1,3,5 and have the bundy red auto in case 2...

I think the snake portion of cases 2 and 4 is a good idea, keeps someone from being screwed by random.

I also like the 5 separate drafts idea. Just make sure the "drafts" are done before starting on case 1. Somebody pulls a nice card in case 1 for a certain team, they shouldn't be able to pick another team on case 3 based on what they pulled in case 1.

The reason I wanted separate drafts was to make this appealing to more people. Sure there are some who prefer to go big or go home, but most would rather have a more even risk/reward. I'm sure that there are people who are in here who would not have joined if this was the same team for all 5 cases.

All the drafts will be completed before we break. It takes 7 days from the day I order to get the case, that is plenty of time to do the drafting before we get started. Plus I want to bust all these in one night. I would rather bust one evening then sort the following evening.

The rules for this draft were set from the beginning, and people signed up with these rules in mind. I am willing to do 2 drafts rather than 5, but that is as far as I will go.

I could be crazy but the way I understood it was there was a draft for cases 1,3,5 and a draft for case 2 and 4 which would be a reverse order draft. But im open to what ever the group wants.

Correct, but the drafts themselves are separate.

That is true, the draft should be organized the way you described it originally because clearly it got peoples interest. When will the randoming be done?

As soon as everyone is all paid up. I'm sure that we will go active tomorrow morning when the guys at BO can approve the price. I will PM everyone their totals when we do go active.

I am in favor of your original plan, 5 drafts and snake it back for 2/4.

i agree with should stay within the original rules for the break having the reverse order draft as well. however, whats really the point of 5 drafts instead of 2? they would practically go in the same order if you think about it

we all understand the reasoning behind suggesting just 2 drafts instead of 5, but maybe some people want more of a variety besides 2 teams and want to choose other teams. so i say we just stick with the 5 drafts and see how it plays out.

This was my reasoning for having 5 drafts. I would think that we will be getting moved to active sometime today. I love this product and this will be a fun break. Wish I had a spot!

makes sense too. so just for clarification... are we doing all 5 drafts before breaking or before each break?

There will be enough time to do all 5 before I even get the cases, so we will plan on getting them all done first. That way I can just rip all 5 cases in one sitting.

Order #167954
Moving to active.

When sending a Paypal payment to the host, protect yourself by sending as goods (not gift). If a payment is sent as a "gift", you eliminate your chance of filing a chargeback should the need arise. If possible, fund the payment with a credit card to be fully protected.
