I think it’s unfair to our international drafters to put 3 hour limit.
Also, if you haven’t picked someone you really wanted by round 50, it means that you don’t care about that act as much.
Or it means there were things I cared about more, and I am still capable of caring for the later round guys. I care. There's a lot of the Dog to go around.
That's what I'm saying. You don't care about that act AS MUCH as you cared about the first 49 acts you drafted. And that doesn't necessarily mean you are still not capable of caring for 50 and later.

Not necessarily. But even if that were the case, that doesn't mean I want other people to have twice the chance to grab 'em.
Well you will still have the chance to grab those acts. It's just twice the chance. Bigger risk of losing them or grabbing them. Your draft order still stays the same.
Also one thing that everyone's forgetting about: I think only few people actually look at all 125 names in your lineup (probably not even care to look after 50 or so names), so it really doesn't make a huge difference.
Well I’m still in favor and I’m in favor of starting it whenever it gets to the start of the following round if the prop passes. No point in waiting till 50
Or to think of it another way: if we had done this from the beginning, everyone would think it would be ridiculous because one person would have the #1 and #2 picks, and the drop off in talent (or alternately, the drop-off in how much people care about whichever act) would be steep enough that it would really suck for the person basically starting their draft from pick #49.
Well, we haven't done this from the beginning, so this argument doesn't make much sense in the context of the current discussion and proposal.
Sure the playing field is more even in the later rounds, but I think it still ends up working against people more towards the poles of the draft, even when you account that they get more picks in shorter distance.
So if this is the issue, we can just stop following the current draft order, randomly assign a new draft order, and will not do snake draft. This way, everyone picks every 25 rounds, which will even the chances (except your draft order as it's your randomly assigned chance) for everyone, and nobody will pick 4 acts in a row. Thoughts?

Still against even though there is very little chance any of you will pick someone I really want at this point except for the homies and then I would be proud.
