    I would put who voted for who and whatnot, but I know that there are some people in this draft who take things a little too personally. Therefore, I won't do so. Granted if ZAE says otherwise, then by all means go for it.

    I will however, towards the deadline check if anyone voted for themself, and either discount that self-vote or even deduct an extra vote for it. But then again, this is not my draft. I'm just covering.

    can people from outside the draft vote? can we publicize the draft more in team forums?

    I'd try not to allow people from outside the draft to vote, which is why I kept it in here. This "game" of the GM Draft, is to have the draftors do the voting. At least that is how I perceived the rules to be. Again this isn't my draft that I'm running. However, this calls for alot of people to be honest and truthful, rather than voting for their own teams, friends, and whatnot. But I cannot control any of that. So we'll just see how it goes.

    So, could we do this NBA playoff-style?

    As in, 8 seeds in each conference, decided by number of votes?

    8 games 1st round, 4 games 2nd, 2 games conference finals, and then the championship

    I think anyone who wants to vote should vote. This is for fun and if people think it's fun to look at the teams and give an opinion why should we stop them?

    Lol I don't mind, I'm not stopping anyone :D

    and I believe we are doing playoffs, with matchups and stuff, cause maybe an 8 seed will matchup really well with a 1st seed that was in another division....we don't know, so once playoffs start, we analyze it by matchups.

    I think it'll be fun right?

    I didn't think of that. Weak.

    Eh. People don't like being told who to vote for.
