1. A Draft date and time will be set up that all members agree to.
2. Thirty Minutes or so before the Draft time decided, two chat rooms will be set up with invitations. One chat room will be purely for stating the picks made � meaning just names, positions, and price. The second draft room will be set up for public talking. This is to keep the actual draft information orderly and easily accessed.
3. Once everyone has signed into the �Talking� Chat room (i.e. the second chat room used for conversation) and written that they are ready to draft, a request will go out to each member to send a number between 1 and 10 via the individual messenger to myself.
4. Before everyone sends this number out, I will also pick a number between 1 and 9. This number will be used as the �Ace� or the first person to open the Auctioning.
5. When everyone sends their numbers (between 1 and 10) the order will fill out as their numbers are relative to that first number. And so, for example, say the number I choose to be the �Ace� is 7 � Player A IM�s a 6, Player B IM�s a 4, Player C IM�s a 10, Player D IM�s a 7, and Player E IM�s a 6 as well � Player D would be the Ace and be the player to open the auctioning since he chose 7, Player C would be in the fourth position since he chose a number four slots away, player B would be 8th since he chose 4 which is 8 slots away from 7 (clockwise). In the event that two players choose the same number like Players A and E did above, I will send each a message of the remaining available numbers (note: they are still not aware what the number is and so they don�t know where they are picking. Once all other members have picked their spots, I will fill the last remaining spot. Once all this has been worked out on the �DRAFT� Chat Room which is used only for announcing players, I will post the Auction Order and announce that the player who drew the �Ace� spot may open the biding.
6. From this point on everything will be as normal, players will have conversations in the �Talking� chat room as well as any individual conversations on their own, and only the proper Auction Data will be said in the �DRAFT� Chat Room. (Again note: The Proper Auction Data consists of only the initial Bidder opening the Biding with the Players Name, Position, and Price � Once the initial Bidder opens with that information, all subsequent entries will either be the counter bid price �$0.40� or �$.40� or �.40� or one word �Pass.�
7. Because this process can get very messy quickly, should one not abide by these rules, and because there will be no baby sitting, the penalty for typing anymore than what was listed above will be a loss of your highest available pick in the Snake Draft for every additional entry made. You will get one warning and after that, the Draft Picks will be taken away.
8. Understand you still may rant, rave, and poke fun as you please, it just must be done in the �TALKING� Chat Room.
