Hey lads,

im not too good with workign way through these forums. so i didnt know where to look in the first place. but i was just wondering when our draft is? is it this monday? I am only asking because i was curious whether or not we had 1 more week of drafting the players, or is that over now?

Thanks

It usually happens sometime on Tuesday depending on the game servers mood, but the ability to scout players closes sometime on Sunday, so the points you have now either need to be invested into the draft today (don't risk leaving it to Sunday) or saved for next season.

If you do use scouting points, don't forget to save your list based on the new information *as you go*.

Nothing dumber than to use a whole seasons worth of points, only to not save as you go, leave it in the original random order, then find out you missed the cutoff date (I remember laughing to myself when someone went on the global forums last season complaining about just that)

yup the results usually come in around 3 AM-ish Perth time (Balcatta boy! welcome).

So its best to just wait till Tuesday morning.

Sometimes it takes longer. It's also best to NOT TOUCH A GOD DAMN THING with the game during the post-season processing. Player's ages will change, salaries get adjusted, teams promote/demote. Just leave it be till Wednesday. :)

season 24 and 25 they were in around 7-8pm perth time. Last season they were late like you suggested. Season 23 it was around 11pm from memory. The best way to know when they are coming is to keep an eye on the NBAA league. When the yanks get their draftees, you know we are close. There is usually a decent time difference from our top leagues to our bottom too, like over an hour sometimes.

My refresh button usually cops a hiding over the next 12 hours, and tonight will be no different.

They are not meant to start till the last competitive NT game is played. The 21 NT final starts 11:30pm Qld time. So might be later this season.

But that is only 8.30 Perth time so if it all starts at say 10 Perth time draftees around maybe 2am Perth time most .
But most likely be quite late this season due to the utopia league which will take a fair while and resources to get up and running unless that takes a back seat to the offseason processing first up
