    After a bit of thought Im in as well - Im the same one as Loko with the prize, but will have another go at this one as well - though will be concentrating on the one with decent prize at the end.
    Just got to make sure I dont get them mixed up and work out how to switch between them.
    Will need to try and be online at 7pm tomorrow as I dont fancy a wishlist 240 players long

    The scoring is the complicated bit - but its the same as in the regular version - the good thing about the draft is every player can only play for 1 team

    2 places left everybody....................
    once you log into 'draft', there is a drop down box at the top left of the screen that lets you switch between other draft teams and leagues

    So can someone explain to me in simple English the draught selection process.

    Who picks 1st 2nd 2rd etc?

    And can only 1 particular player only be picked once?

    Can you pick a limited number of players from the same team?

    Take it in turns for first picks. So it'll go something like Team A, B, C.... for 1st pick. 2nd pick will be something like Team B, Team C...... Team A. Or reverse Pick 1 order, or some other random generated order to make it fair for all Teams

    Yes each particular player can only be picked once.

    Can pick multiple players from each team

    Imagine that all 16 players are randomly given positions at the start of the Draft so we're all lined up 1-16.

    We then pick one player each, any position, from the player at #1 to the player at #16. Once it gets to the player at 16 we then start the process again but from player #16 (who gets two picks in a row) to player #1. And then again from player #1 (getting two picks in a row to player #16. So there's pros and cons for being in the different positions in 'the snake'.

    No limits on number of players from each team but you've obviously got to stick to the squad rules in terms of positions.

    How long do you have to pick your player each time?

    Thats fine if they are either Sheff U players or Leeds players as I wont be picking either for very different reasons Anyone who picks Bamford need to have a look at themselves even if he is scoring lots of points. (I just cant bring myself to want Leeds players to do well so cant have them in my team)

    That took less time than I was expecting - didnt get many of the first choice pics I would have made - like none at all ! then being right at the end of the snake is always a problem
