If you don’t yet have an account, you can create one here first.
Remember, if you want to draft in your friends, make sure they don’t join without your draft code, because they will not be able to make it into your family afterward.
Yeah, that’s a rough spot. I also did say it was a “rough plan” though. Planning against uncertainties has its risks.
I recommend that players wait until the actual announcement before investing too much into any specific scenarios.
As for the rationale behind it, I initially did want 3 draft spots for a 7-person team, but we can’t be certain that we’ll get that many joins. Hence 2 drafts for 5 (40%) being the default, as it’s comparable to last round’s 3/7 (42%).
UA also being legal this round will counter-balance the lower % if it ends up being 2/6 or 2/7.
I hear that, i dont mean to sound like a brat here. But u shouldn’t punish us for assuming from what you said . You could have said " thinking of changing drafts?"
My post asked u about that. And yes we shouldnt assume but this game does take planning and hopes and dreams get smashed with a numerical change from 2 to 3.
Not trying to be an asshole here. Whats the reason? Like were breaking up a crew of 4 to 3? From last round?
When you asked, I wasn’t thinking about changing the drafts, so there was no reason for me to say that.
I explained the reason for the change above:
I initially did want 3 draft spots for a 7-person team, but we can’t be certain that we’ll get that many joins. Hence 2 drafts for 5 (40%) being the default, as it’s comparable to last round’s 3/7 (42%).
There’s no intention to punish anybody. UA is an option here too.
This is to preserve the draft/random ratio depending on family size.
3 drafts is therefore possible, but only if we get the joins required.
We have to balance the draft/random ratio, and 3 drafts in a fam of 5 will be way too much because including the family “anchor”, you will have 4/5 (80%) of the family being a pre-planned team.
We’re trying to grow the galaxy too, which is why we’re looking at a range of 75-105 players. We have to stay flexible.
If we can get the galaxy full at 75 peeps, we will open up that last draft when we also add the 6th spot.
Can see a lot of people waiting around for that 3rd draft spot to potentially open haha. Could leave the galaxy looking Empty up to the start of round.
Might also be the weekend timing. We tend to get a bump in the last 24 hrs too.
There is an issue though yeah with the join process here. It is better than the alternative where some families would fill up while others remained empty, but there is still room for improvement.
