Prog Draft 1970 - Draft IP Topic

THM76395 is the code for the 1970 draft. I am running these drafts a few days into the prior season, not waiting for the season to end. We are likely to have 1-2 slots open for 1970. You can join at THM76395 and message me if it fills before you get in.

I am writing because WIS recommended you specifically for an invitation to my 1970 progressive draft league. THM76395 is the code for the 1970 draft.

This league is a LOT of fun!

If you have not yet drafted using the WIS feature, this is a great chance to try it. I am happy to answer any questions as we draft, but everyone finds it eary to learn.

The draft will include all 1970 players, but once any version of a speciifc player is taken (combined or partial seasons), other versions are removed from the pool.

We completed the 1969 version in about a week, and after 30 games every team is still competitive.

Using the WIS draft module, you will know your EXACT 10 minutue draft windows in advance. They are from 11am-9pm eastern. If you miss a slot, you can pick anytime - but every 10 minutes another player has the ability to slip ahead of you.

This league is progressive in this way - a few days into the 1970 season, I will do another draft for the 1971 players. No keepers from 1970 for that, but most players in one were in both.

You do not have to join the 1971 version, but WIS is giving me $50 of prize credit to distribute to those with the best records within the first 5 seasons. People joining in 1970 will still be competitive for that, too.

WIS set it up assuming the draft begins on Wed, Jan 14 (assuming we are full of course). It is available to register and most have already joined.

Although 1970 is full, please reach out if the format interests you. We might expand in the future or need new owners in future drafts.

We will do the round 26 stadium draft here, but players need to select their stadium in BOTH this location (for exclusivity) and in the draft module (to prevent delays from fixing it afterward).

Round 26 draft order: late can pick anytime from remaining 1970 stadiums, post here before picking it.

You can just say the team name to draft the stadium.
You can draft early ONLY if everyone ahead of you has drafted.
You can send proxies to me if you will be busy at your draft time (this does not work for rounds 1-15).
You can pick any time after if you miss your draft window BUT every 10 minutes someone else can sneak ahead of you. Good to look after your post submits, just to be sure.
I will edit this post to reflect the picks you made below it.
