Brilliant. 

Had Baylor last year. It sucks having them. Juice ain’t worth the squeeze. 
besides, Kansas State is almost as good a pick mathematically as Baylor, but infinitely more fun. 
every year I usually end up 3rd or 4 th place after the draft of likely to win.

I was between Xavier and Baylor so I thought the next pick would be them. But I was also looking at KSt. All good picks.

[shadow_operative 15932]

any chance we can get an updated list of who's left? i'm currently going over the last version of said list on the previous page. 

[shadow_operative 15932]

@Wulaw Horn is marquette available?

No. Let me help you out- Houston and Bama are both still available of teams likely to still win a game or 6.

fifth time is the charm.

[ztejas 43411]

We could use another list. 

[Wulaw Horn 19063]

Down to 14 teams I think. This part of the draft sucks. I don’t think we’ve ever finished Monday night. I think Tuesday lunch time is best ever. 

[Prepuce of Doom 21052]

ASU/Nevada 

@Wulaw Horn

[HornOnTheBayou 8904]

We are down to 12 teams and it works out well, because it's all of the 14-16 seeds. I think. Again, it's Spring Break so I could be way off.

[Wulaw Horn 19063]

Cool. Provided that’s is a legitimate pick we have all the 14/15 and 16 seeds left and that’s it. 
fine me Santa Barbara as it’s fun to root against Baylor. 
@Zepol87

[Wulaw Horn 19063]

I’m going to bed. For my last pick if this is still going on I will take the last 15 seed on the board. 

[Zepol87 9185]

Yea I'm kind of high sorry a new list would be cool. Or just give me whatever

[Prepuce of Doom 21052]

Not a list of who is left, but here is this.

I feel like there's a lot of politics in the room right now - I'm not comfortable suggesting anything.

@Wulaw Hornpicked UCSB and I didn't see it earlier. I've since edited the two posts above to reflect that, though I didn't retake the photo. 

It should be time for @Zepol87

 

[Wulaw Horn 19063]

Well, it almost happened. We almost finished Monday night for the first time ever. 
i guess we will be ready to go at the crack of 2 when Zep and Derka roll out of bed. 
I’m at sea world with the Ives today. Give me whatever 15 seed is left (there ought to be 1 as I pick with 5 left) 

Thanks

It's almost certainly academic, but why don't you put your 16 seeds in order of preference just to avoid any potential issue no matter how unlikely it is that it may matter?

Is Princeton left?  Asking for Huck.

Hey/ I know your charting everything- can you give me the last 3 left so I can pick for Huck, Derka and big o?

Remaining three are Princeton, Fartley Dickenson/Tx So, and Northern KY. 

Edited March 14, 2023 by Prepuce of Doom

[Wulaw Horn 19063]

Huck gets Princeton 

Derka gets northern kentucky

big Orange gets Farleigh Dickinson. 
 

Huck got lucky. I’d have taken Princeton if I knew they were available. I thought I HAD to take Asheville. Probably swing the contest. 
and with that gentlemen- we are done! 
 

good drafting. Good luck. Thanks for playing. 

[Prepuce of Doom 21052]

Final draft results.

For those of you who don’t know Huck runs all sorts of cool numbers for us every year. Expect that tomorrow.

shadow_operative - 64.89

Wulaw Horn - 62.62

BigOrange1 - 62.41

I actually messed up my list a bit. Forgot to re-sort after combining the first four. For example I would have had ASU/Nevada instead of Houston. Oh well, that's what happens when you're sending a list as you're running out the door. Full list of EVs:
