Just offering a suggestion. I think a War Room chat or forum would lead to some good banter. My $0.02.

Funny, I was thinking about asking about a chat room as well today.

I agree. I think a chat window I could leave open while in the war room would be great.

+1 on this idea, that way we got something to do during downtime, and could become very interesting during the draft haha

This is definitely on the list - not just for the war room, but a league chat in general.

As much as I'd love to partake, some of us live in a nation with real time. GMT is king... which means I miss large elements of the draft.

On a wider note, that does disadvantage non-US citizens to a degree I'd presume but can't see any way round it. Just need to research the draft class fully, get a grip on what teams you believe will pick and hope.

I tried to schedule the draft so that it was as evenly distributed across the US and Europe time zones, it means that the draft starts super early in the AM for folks in California and goes late at night for folks in the UK. But that's also why I have the draft weights - which, if you play with them enough you can actually get a pretty good list and will help prevent you from picking multiple players at the same position. I do have a ticket in to allow you to control where it evaluates in the spectrum between the current and future - currently it does the halfway point.

Oh yeah, wasn't complaining about it as even a minor issue tbh.

I mean, people working would be disadvantaged against those not working if you wanted to get right down to the nitty gritty of things.

I'm really looking forward to this. I think I may actually let the AI make some picks for me (intentionally) once it's implemented.

Thanks

I think you have it spot on tbh.
