    Here is the spreadsheet. I haven't parsed out any particular decade. Many of the newer players are missing decade information.

      when I was looking at Hamels for my last pick, there were a couple of BYs in the spreadsheet, but I felt like there were 2 that were better that weren't in there.

        fwiw Javier Vazquez best year is 2009 and that wasn't in the SS, so maybe there either needs to be a general pass or we should just put all the years in.
        In the best of times, our days are numbered, anyway. And it would be a crime against Nature for any generation to take the world crisis so solemnly that it put off enjoying those things for which we were presumably designed in the first place, and which the gravest statesmen and the hoarsest politicians hope to make available to all men in the end: I mean the opportunity to do good work, to fall in love, to enjoy friends, to sit under trees, to read, to hit a ball and bounce the baby.

            Was thinking of streaming Civ 6 again, with the new DLC coming out soon. But I always end up disappointed. It's so slow and ponderous. I wish they'd just finish with the game and let the modding community build a proper game out of it.

            Civ 6 had a lot of good ideas, but the implementation is sketchy, and the gameplay experience is terribly lacking. The AI sucks. Warfare is terrible after the early game.

            Just finish with the game so we can fix your shit Firaxsis.

              - KO's are not included in VD13
              - The Draft order will not be fixed (reversed)

              Added a poll for Feral suggestion that the top 3 finishers get demoted in the draft order in the following draft.

              I imagine that will be the last poll.

                You mean KO's are not included?
                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.

                    Based on an obviously rigged past draft order, I should clearly have picks 1, 2 and 3

                        No, what I want is for someone to restore the old site so I can pull those draft orders too. (actually I think I was top 3 once there, I remember having Cobb)

                          Another option would be reverse draft order from VD12. I get the appeal of randomization but chance is lumpy.

                              that would work for every two, but the next would need to be randomized again, or else you are just going back and forth...
