Ok but how does that relate to how many acts are being drafted?
Wdym?
You made a point that 630 acts will be drafted, which is less than a typical draft. I don't see the connection between that fact and the idea that everyone has to have the same number of free agents.
I like giving people the option to choose their number of free agents because this draft is supposed to be flexible as far as venue, vibe, genre mix, etc. So I think a lot of people will relish saying "these are my thirty and I'm doing a two-day fest" while others will be excited to really go wild with having a bunch of stages.
I do recognize the issue that there will be a lot of stuff undrafted compared to other drafts, but 630 is still a lot of acts and if yall nominate the good stuff in the auction then it won't be there in FA. It's sorta up to drafters to make each other pay for quality acts and make sure those don't get to free agency.

I’d be pretty interested in seeing a preliminary round of voting without free agents on the lineups, then add however many free agents you want and there’s a real first round of voting. That would also give some indication for how much free agents actually impact lineups and it allows everyone to compare their drafted lineups with each other
I also like the idea that we have as many FAs as we want this time. Most people don't even care about FAs imo, and it's just about filling the schedule of a Bonnaroo/Coachella type lineup, but this game being build-whatever-you-want type of draft, there shouldn't be a fix number of FAs.
Considering you've found the need to respond to my threads as if you are threatened by me I offer you some peace my confused counterpart. May you find peace in your restless soul.

Its exactly the last thing. There are a bunch of other acts that have become available due to the window being bigger now so. That plus a smaller pool at the end of the draft is just idk.. It doesnt sit right. And it feels weird to first have a budget to have some sort of difficulty and change of pace during the game and then let everything out with FAs.

Again, this seems like you're arguing that we should not have any free agents at all.

I don't. I think there should be a limit (40, 50 idk) as to how many FAs we can use and not how many as we desire.
