2020 DRAFT VALUE CHALLENGE

RULES FOR DRAFT VALUE CHALLENGE

IMPORTANT
PLEASE PM ENTRIES TO @LAOJoe WITH THE CHALLENGE IN THE TITLE. YOU HAVE UNTIL ONE HOUR BEFORE THE DRAFT TO SUBMIT YOUR PICKS.
We use the results of LAOJoe And RTTRUTH's 11th Annual Mock as the starting point. The entire mock is here: https://live4sportnetwork.com/forum...s-11th-annual-collaborative-mock-draft.28998/

We each choose players we think would be taken earlier, later or around the same spot in the real draft compared to our "official" mock. You get points depending on what happens.

We each pick 2 players per round who we think will get drafted higher and 2 we think would get drafted lower. We also choose 1 guy per round we think is closest to their exact spot.
We also predict 2 UDFAs who were picked that would actually get drafted and 2 guys entirely not selected. EXAMPLE of Picks at the bottom. The nature of the scoring could see the winner emerge with a negative score.

The extreme values are almost impossible to get but they can make or break you.
A full round means the same spot or greater in the next/previous round and NOT necessarily 32 picks.


Risers/Fallers
>6-7 Full Rounds= 60 points Faller/70 Riser
>5-6 Full Rounds= 50 points Faller/60 Riser
>4-5 Full Rounds= 40 points Faller/50 Riser
>3-4 Full Rounds= 30 points Faller/40 Riser
>2-3 Full Rounds= 20 points Faller/30 Riser
>1- 2 Full Rounds= 10 points Faller/20 Riser
17-Full Round= 8 points Faller/10 Riser
11-16= 6 points
6-10= 3 points
1-5= 1 point
0=0 points
If your faller pick is actually a riser you:
lose 5 points +1 points for every spot.
Maximum of -35 points.

If your riser pick is actually a faller you:
lose 5 points +1 point for every spot.
If he goes undrafted you lose an extra 10.
Maximum of -35 points; -40 if undrafted.

Extra Rule: Mispicking an undrafted player from this mock to be drafted will give you -15.
Extra Rule: Correctly picking an undrafted player from this mock to be drafted gives you 10 points per round.

Closest to actual pick

+/-3= 15 points (20 points Rounds 4+)
+/-4= 10 points (15 points Rounds 4+)

+/-12= -3 points (4 points Rounds 4+)
+/-13= -4 points (3 points Rounds 4+)
+/-14= -5 points (2 points Rounds 4+)
+/-15= -6 points (1 points Rounds 4+)
+/-16= -7 points (0 points Rounds 4+)
+/-(17-one full round)= -10 points
+/-Between >1-2 full rounds= -15 points
+/->2-3 full rounds= -25 points
+/->3+ full rounds= -35 points
1st-3rd Round undrafted = -50 points
4th Round undrafted= -40 points
5th round undrafted= -30 points
6th round undrafted= -20 points
7th round undrafted= -10 points
ALSO in the 7th round you can only lose a maximum of 10 points if your guy is drafted AFTER his prediction. You can still lose more if he gets drafted earlier.
EXTRA: A correctly undrafted guy gives you 20 points. If you guess wrong you lose 20 points.
EXTRA: YOU CANNOT PICK ONE OF THE FIRST 7 PLAYERS DRAFTED FOR THE EXACT SPOT!!
YOU ALSO CANNOT CHOOSE ****
MR. Irrelevant Cannot be picked as a faller.

12 seconds late.
Disqualified!!
















LoL. Just effing with you TD!

 

I dunno what you are talking about. IT's not due until the draft starts. IT's the only thing we've told people.

 

Not what the rules say...

1 hour before draft.

 

Good to know! Technically, in my defence we have never edited out the one hour before the draft line in our opening explanation of the competition. So I stuck with that.
Do you mean I can still be editing? Mine is terrible

 

Well I told people 8PM when they PMed me before so you're good. Make any changes you want until then. TD posted it so I didn't see that.

 

Anyway for clarification, I’m good with one minute before the draft starts as a hard deadline

 

I have a couple PMed from people I'll post soon but one guy said he's gonna change it before I post.

 

lol! Kind of a joke honestly...

The rules clearly state 1 hour before the draft.

I don't need to change anything @LAOJoe

 

It was a miscommunication all around, mainly on my end with RT. Just get whatever you want done if you want anything done before the sceduled start of the draft.

 

Doesn't really matter now. I was playing by the rules you posted.
