    I actually thought that the draft was a fairly interesting idea. I still think it would be a pretty good idea (considering the 3 class limitation). It just didn't go anywhere because we didn't have a fourth captain. I still think its worth a shot. I just wasn't aware that I guess people were kinda expecting me to captain. I'm fairly inexperienced when it comes to the mnc community.

    I don't know exactly how well a party of just captains talking will pan out. Either way, I believe one team will be fairly unbalanced. I think you guys should do a test to see what the teams would have been had the draft happened.

    But I agree that the only way for this to even go anywhere is for quick action because the longer we wait the more people will forget and go back to their usual derp.

    If you get three or four captains willing to draft, I can try to submit my own team into the mix. I know that doesn't sound fair, but I am attempting to gather players who I felt had potential but usually flew under the radar, so I won't be stacking.


    I still feel like a draft tournament is very unreliable. There's a severe lack of dedication from various players. Just look at how few are motivated to captain. The reason these rarely work is because nobody wants to compete enough to put their own team together. I think last one we drafted 8 to a team just incase and we still had some trouble.

    Realistically, I do see us being able to put together 4 teams. I should be able to put one together, and skill is usually good at getting one together. That means we just need 12 more.

    Just have each captain make their team and have 4 teams. No one will complain as long as we get to play the game.

    Good Point, but choosing me as an example is bad. I'm always on MNC.

    I'd throw my name in there if it were more towards teapot's idea of being able to enter your own reasonable & unstacked team. History always repeats itself in this game, look how many preset team matches have occurred over the years vs how many draft team matches have. Complete lack of faith will keep vets from believing this can happen and complete lack of commitment will prevent the more casual PM crowd from showing up with draft teams.

    Disclaimer: I'm not a captain, assault, or gunner

    Seems like no one is mapping-out the next step... We have the 4 captains(LeadLP,SKILL,GC2MT,Tpot). We have the 20 rosters. Why not the four captains do their role and actually choose teams, or even better, communicate and show the forums that you are so this topic doesn't get forgotten.

    I think this has been the most interesting and fun topic anyone has suggested around here in a long while, so let's actually do it.

    As for the drafting, the suggested idea from GC2MT seems fine to me, but if it terns out to have one unbalanced team obvious enough for the 4 captains to notice they will pick again and try to even out the teams.

    For Tpot making his own team....? Doesn't exactly fit into the drafting system and would cause more problems.

    People are over thinking this instead of doing it. We have the 4 captains, we have the 20 rosters, we don't have teams. Let's take the next step

    Each captain just make a team, argue out any overlaps, and then we'll play.

    If you could mark out the names of those chosen, it'd be easier.
