That bonus tip is a seriously underrated one. Had the person after me panic pick Mason Mount in Round 2 last year because I picked within 10 seconds of the timer starting
Looking forward to the updated points predictions! Considering so much effort has been done, have you considered writing a code for the draft day itself? Should be relatively simple compared to what you are already doing to just input your full list of players in preferred order, with all the caveats in terms of positions, clubs, exceptions, conditions, etc, to create loops in which you just input what your opponents selected and the program tells you who you should select based on your own set of criteria. Surely doing manually live with all the data to handle and adjust, following others' choices, being nervous, and accounting for any potential internet lapses makes it likely one will not select everything according to their criteria.
Hi mate - this is definitely something we have in mind for the future but certainly not this year! There are a number of other things we want to get right first, particularly during the season to have a model we're really happy with that guides waivers and starting line-ups each week. To be honest I hadn't considered getting the user to input some of their own biases in order to steer the suggestions, that's a really good idea that I have noted down! I think we have the potential for the user to not have to manually input rival draft picks as we can track virtually track those live anyway with our current set-up

Yes great example!
