Changes explained:

- Draft time -> Sat 27 Oct 2200 HKT -> 7 out of 10 managers preferred this.
- Max team -> 10 -> no more joining!
- Trade deadline -> NO -> trade as many as you want throughout the season!
- Waiver -> FAAB w/ Continual rolling list tiebreak -> blind bid system + original rolling list on tiebreak -> each manager have same fixed amount of bidding money, interested managers place blind bid on a wavier player, highest bid will win and the bidding money will be deducted from total bidding money of the winning team. In the event of the same bidding amount among two or more bids (tie break), the system will follow continual rolling list, which means the earlier the team draft, the lower the position on the list. And a team will goto bottom of the list every time a team win the waiver addition.
- Post Draft Players -> Free agent -> Players in the wire are better than the ones you have just drafted? Grab him immediately when the draft ends.
- Roster Positions ->Ccut one bench position -> to make total number of players among teams 120 -> to maintain good dynamic in the wire.

Of course doing live draft is way better than the ranking list. However, I was never able to do that....

That's why I have to make a long ranking list (~150-200 players, depends on no. of teams) an ...

Yeah, but only in the most ideal scenario. In most cases, a well prepared pre-ranking list will do better than a manager manually draft affected by with depth of preparation, peer pressure, time constraint etc...I believe a well prepared list is necessary in a live draft. It is easy to tell which available player is better in first few rounds, but it's getting more difficult as you go further...My deep respect to your long ranking list! I often ranked 1-100.

Set your alarm(s) !!!

With just more than a day to go for live draft, I would strongly recommend getting your pre-ranking ready whether you can attend or not. First few picks are often easy but your pre-ranking list will be really useful after that.
If you cannot attend, the system will use your pre-ranking to do the draft and it will switch back to the Yahoo! default ranking once your pre-ranking list is empty.
I believe you can join anytime during the process of live draft.
