If you have questions ask them here.
I'm sure it's probably been discussed and a committee member can answer it for you.

I'm assuming that no PP rolls ever. It should be this way so please confirm

If we are taking 3 drafts from different eras how are the 3 drafts determined and the order they enter the league determined? Like will we know all the draft classes in advance and just not know what year?

Once a class has been used it cannot be reused until all classes have had their shot.

If we are taking 3 drafts from different eras how are the 3 drafts determined and the order they enter the league determined? Like will we know all the draft classes in advance and just not know what year? No one will know the draft classes ahead of the time when they are drawn at the ASB. Once a class has been used it cannot be reused until all classes have had their shot. Just a thought, if we wanted to make it so you could speculate on draft classes you liked, but still have some randomness like in real life on whether certain players would declare. We could randomly populate an "incoming pool" and pick from there so you know what's on the board. For instance if we have 3 eras like London was saying in which each era will have 1 draft year picked to be in the next draft, We could randomly pick 3 per era (9 total) and know that 1 of those 3 will get picked at random to be in the draft. After the first draft is picked, the remaining 6 possible years stay in the pool for next year and 3 more are added at random from each era. For the next draft however, the years that were in the pool longer are weighted more heavily to be picked than the more freshly added (I already wrote a little script for this). This may be convoluted so a made up example: Era One: Medieval years - 1970 Era Two: 1971-1990 Era Three: 1991-2015 Three years are picked completely random from each of these eras: So now we have 1951, 1952, 1953: 1971, 1972, 1973: 1991, 1992, 1993 (For instance). If you like someone from the 1991 draft then there's a 1 in 3 chance it's going to get picked so trying to trade for that pick might be in your best interest. So the draft gets announced and a year from each era is random selected for instance 1951, 1971, and 1992. The other years are left in the pool and a new year from each era is randomly added and advertised. Let's say 1954, 1974, and 1994. For next year's draft, we could weight the 6 that were left in the draft pool more heavily when they're randomly selected for instance, in era one, the chances could be 40% for 1951, 40% 1952, and 20% 1954. If 1952 gets selected the odds for 1951 would go up even more as to be determined. Just a thought so people could potentially speculate on picks a little sooner and while it seems somewhat complicated, it'd be extremely easy to actually implement.

Dunno if I have missed it anywhere but any news on what year it will be starting and how many teams? Or too early for those kinda details?

Yeah doesn't matter except to say "I want you 2004 1st round pick". If you are asking what "real life" year we are starting in well that's tougher because the draft class is a combination of mutliple draft classes from every era so there will be quite a mix of old guys and new guys to draft. Still working on number of teams. Gotta see who is coming over from the old league and how many spaces we have left. Could contract, could expand, may stay the same. Dunno yet.
