oof but that makes it realllllly difficult to coordinate where you want things on your schedule as you go along in the auction, which i think is how most of us like to do it.
Can't we determine FA number now? I know I'd personally find it extremely helpful
I think he's saying that you can schedule your 30 acts the way you want to, don't build FA spots into your schedule. Draft the shit you're gonna use, FAs are just a lil bonus stage at the very end.
I've interpreted it as we will have 15 UDFA at the end of bidding before the first round of voting, and then you get 15 more UDFA after the next 2 rounds of voting. Essentially, you should plan for 45 acts to fit in a schedule with the remaining two tranches of 15 assigned to the bonus stage.
Pass on the act whose leader is also a member of Mount Vernon, DeYarmond Edison, the Shouting Matches, Volcano Choir, Big Red Machine, and Gayngs, and has also collaborated with Taylor Swift, Kanye West, Watch the Throne, James Blake, St. Vincent, Mike WiLL Made-It, Francis and the Lights, Swamp Dogg, the Chieftains, the Flaming Lips, Travis Scott, Anais Mitchell, Colin Stetson, Polica, Ani DiFranco, Vince Staples, Kids See Ghosts, Eminem, Bruce Hornsby, and Jason Feathers

I was thinking of it like you basically would add a stage with each round of FA and that fifteen artists is five on a stage per day for a three day festival. I figure people don't super care about other people's free agents because they get dropped all at once and I'm trying to think of how to improve that.

Idk. I would like to give everyone time to weigh in and not be asked to make a decision right now. I've asked for input before and not gotten much of a response. I'd like to try something different to mix up free agency, which is to add 15 acts for each round of voting, but if yall would rather just do it the old way because of scheduling and posters being easier, that's fine. Yall are the ones playing, so I'm not trying to do anything that annoys the people who actually are making the lineups. I just thought doing another *drop 80 acts that weren't drafted* thing might be a bit stale. I've also thought about telling people they could have as many or as few FAs as they want, so they could have zero or try to program Glastonbury. Maybe most people don't want something that open-ended.

this is already the most open ended game we've done, i would actually love this and think it makes the most sense at this point considering some people are already building a 2 day festival and some are committed to doing a 3 day

FWIW--I'm not super tied to the idea of one particular structure, just think it would be helpful to know what we are going ahead with sooner rather than later

big fan of take as many FAs as you do or dont want. Great idea IMO
If we're having so many options in FA's then what's the point of the budget anymore? 630 acts is not even half of the amount of a normal Bonnaroo draft.

this please, or your original idea. The glut of nobodies at the end of the poster is unnecessary, can't we just do smaller lineups for once?

to hold us all to a standard of having to acquire 30 of the first 630 acts, with a limited budget.

If enough people are on board with an open-ended free agent number, I think that could be exciting.
A couple of things about adding 15 (or whatever number) between rounds are that it keeps the voting fresh, because people are adding new dimensions to their lineups and voters have new things to look at, but also it allows for constructive criticism, so someone might say "I like your lineup and I hope it advances but it's thin on guitar acts" and then the drafter goes and adds a few rock bands after they advance so that their lineup is more well-rounded going forward.

Is your contention that we shouldn't have FAs at all?

I dont think anyone is going to win on the strength of their free agents

My issue is that everyone should have the same amount of FA's.
