    SBR Fantasy Tennis Coalition Official DRAFT THREAD

    You should have received the authentic draft order in the e-mail you provided me, but here it is again:

    1.TEVARI
    2.SANDO
    3.MUHERD37
    4.JROD124
    5.EAGLESPHAN36
    6.DJOKING
    7.OPTIONAL
    8.JNIC
    9.CROSS
    10.SHARP SNAKE
    11.BLAX0R
    12.SHARI91
    13.CHAZ22
    14.SANTO


    The draft will be a snake draft. It goes 1-14 and then backwards from 14-1, back to 1-14 and so on until the draft is completed. That means at the end of each round, the #1 spot picks twice in a row and the #14 spot picks twice in a row. To keep the draft moving, please make your selections in this thread only. Do not PM me your choice or send it via e-mail. This will allow people to make selections during the hours when others may not be online so that the draft can continue to move along as best as possible. During the time I am online, I will try my best to keep people up to date with who is on the clock by PM-ing you a reminder if it is your pick. I will also post all the picks made as the draft goes so that you know who is gone and who is available. If you pick a player who has already been taken, it will hold up the draft as we will have to sort everything out - so please check out this 1st post where I will post the players chosen/

    Please make sure you understand how many players you need to draft from the ATP - men's side and WTA - women's side.


    ROSTER

    Each participant's roster will consist of nine players. Five will be starters each week and four will comprise your bench. You are required to draft at least two WTA [women's] players. You may draft a MAXIMUM of three WTA players. The other six should be ATP [men's players].

    Your weekly roster will require five starters: FOUR ATP/ONE WTA
    If you do not submit a new roster at the beginning of the next week of action, your previous' week's roster will remain in-play for that week. Roster changes will be due at a time determined by EP36 each week. This time will be posted on this blog. Any changes submitted after the deadline will not be executed.

    NO EDITING is allowed in this thread. Please make sure your selection is who you want. Any EDITS made of your post will result in the player listed being put back into the draft pool and you having your pick for that round bumped to the last position. This is to try and keep things as fair as possible. Also please try not to post anything but your pick in this thread to avoid any confusion or clutter. If you notice someone has made a pick out of order or taken a player already off the draft board - PM me and I will jump in here ASAP and sort it out.

    Let's roll.

    1st Round
    tevari: Roger Federer
    sando: Novak Djokovic
    MUHerd37: Andy Murray
    JRod124: Serena Williams
    EP36: Juan Martin Del Potro

    And please if you are a spectator on this, please be respectful of the process and do not post in here as the draft is progressing. It will only clutter the thread. Thank you!

    Novak Djokovic.

    Never done one of these before, but I'm assuming you pick the best players at the beginning?

    A reminder that I will be updating the 1st post of the thread with the round-by-round selections so that you can know who has been taken and who has not. Updates should be pretty current during the hours I am awake, maybe a little behind during the overnight hours so make sure you scroll up and look at the players just chosen before you select yours.

    MUHerd37 on the clock.

    Next time I think we should have people pay before we see the draft order. Because seriously... I just paid but if I were a bit dodgy, which has happened with a few of my contests, I'd bail on this if I saw where I was in the lineup.

    Good point, but anyone who did that - I wouldn't want in this any how. #1 pick doesn't ensure anything. #10 pick doesn't ensure anything.

    That's why I went the random generator route and got the e-mails. I had one person tell me they did not get the e-mail ... hoping everyone else got theirs. If you want the original e-mail to prove authenticity and did not get it, I would be happy to forward it to anyone who wants it.

    Oh and let's keep this thread to just the picks to avoid the clutter. I'm guilty as well.

    I had JJ in my threads for 3yrs. I'm going to spam the ever mother f out of this one now that there's another contest going on since you only told observers to stay out.

    But seriously, just PM or email me when it's my time. Figure by the time Wimbledon rolls around I'll be up for a pick. Hopefully Melzer is still in greattttttttt shape!

    shari91 on the clock. In case she picks and this keeps going while I am asleep here for the next few hours, remember when Santo makes the final pick of Round 1, the order goes in reverse for Round 2 so that Santo is making two picks in a row. So here is the order to close out Round 1.

    12.SHARI91
    13.CHAZ22
    14.SANTO

    and then Round 2

    2.1----Santo
    2.2----Chaz22
    2.3----shari91
    2.4----Blax0r
    2.5----Sharp Snake
    2.6----Cross
    2.7----JNic
    2.8----Optional
    2.9----Djoking
    2.10----EaglesPhan36
    2.11----Jrod124
    2.12----MUHerd37
    2.13----sando
    2.14----tevari
