FPL Public Draft League questions.

Post by SE »

Has anyone entered an actual public draft league yet against a random 7 other managers? How long did it take to draft the 8 teams? What time did you have the auction? I've entered a couple of public leagues, but deleted the entry as the starting times have been weekday mid morning.

The stats are dark and full of errors.

I've not tried a public one yet, but if you look on the FPL draft sub forum here there are some test drafts going on.

I think a DL with people on FISO that you can talk to about it would be more fun, and you can agree the times of the draft and conditions too.

For reference, an 8 player draft takes around 35 minutes in the ones I've seen. For instance, here's one that was done on FISO yesterday

If you enter a public draft league I believe it enters you into a league where the draft takes place about 24 hours later.

I entered a public league which drafted yesterday. I believe I was the only person in the draft room, The first picks took a while as each other manager used up the full 90 seconds, but I think if a manager doesn't pick inside the allotted time for the first couple of times it assumes he is not there and drafts either from his watchlist or at random if no watchlist. So from the third round of drafting basically all the other picks happened automatically and I just drafted my players every few seconds. So the whole thing was over in 20-25 minutes. I got a great team from it but personally would have preferred it if there was some real competition.
