Do I finish top 5?
(I thought it was VD6, but no, that was a Letter/Decade draft ... I'm pretty sure VD 1 would have been plain letter, but just guessing)

Rules:
Format:
Letters (Last Name)
Muliplicative Scoring +1
No KO's
15 Hitters / 10 Pitchers (3 QUIZY's and 2 WC's)
BA not OBP (no change)
Team IP minimum set at 18000
The Deadball / Contemporary hitter limitations are in play. ONLY the Deadball pitcher limitation is in play (Contemporary Pitcher limitation removed)
VD 9 had 12 participants, so the sheet isn't just transferable, but it'll serve KS's needs for "average draft position".More American children die by gunfire in a year than on-duty police officers and active duty military.

Not sure if it matters, but this one is 14 hitters / 11 pitchers and VD 9 was 15/10. The rest, other than # of participants, seems to be the same.
Honestly, perhaps for ease of use and since we're starting kind of slowly here, maybe we should just adopt the rules from VD 9 wholesale, including # of hitters and pitchers. Just a thought.More American children die by gunfire in a year than on-duty police officers and active duty military.

Just a thought.If DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it. There has to be a weirdest thing. Once we have the concept weird, there has to be a weirdest thing. And DMT is simply it.

Updated players and player stats
Different number of participants means it has to be built anew anyway
Changes to certain of the rule conditions (modern hitter)
I normally don't build the SS until the end of R1 when I know exactly how many participants we have. There may be multiple versions of the SS floating around this draft (which is actually good for validating the scoring).

I have a VD 9 sheet, I have Revo's google docs spreadsheet, I just don't have the expertise to take those things and make them into a new VD 12 sheet.More American children die by gunfire in a year than on-duty police officers and active duty military.

However, one of the things I've never been able to do very well is adjust the number of participants so it's consistent on every tab of the sheet --- from VD 9 to VD 12 (this one) we will need to go from 12 owners to 14.
