    I'm sure you'll be a worthy adversary but my draft board is shaping up into what can best be described as people clawing to stay in this life but sliding further down into the realm of the dead with every broken fingernail.

    I said I would give it a week for entries so up to Sunday night after the game, or possibly Monday morning dependent upon my level of drunkenness. I will then put all names into a random draft order generator, I'll leave myself out and pick last as I just tested out one and of course it had me picking 1st, wouldn't want anyone to think anything was hinky.

    Snake draft, 10 hours to pick, with the hours between midnight and 8 am not counted, We have a couple of contestants on the other side of the world so will have to adjust hours for them.
    When you pick post the pick and tag the next picker with a @The Waterboy type notice.

    Let's keep discussion in here and we'll have a separate draft thread for picks only. I'll see about having a mod sticky the thread in place of the 2016 thread. It looks like a few less players than last year so I think keeping it at 6 rounds should be good.

    Let me know if you can think of anything else or if there is anything you think should change.

    I just looked at last year's draft list, why did no one pick John Hurt? He would have been my first round pick until a week ago.

    you use the "@" and then the users name and they will get an alert.
    so to tag the waterboy you type @The Waterboy and he will know that he was mentioned in this post

    Ok, I am severely hung over so if I screw this up it's not my fault. The draft order for the 2017 Death Pool is as follows.

    1 Bellows1
    2 Jetsvilma28
    3 joe
    4 Satan
    5 FJF
    6 BrowningNagle
    7 Red Menace
    8 Faux Machine
    9 NYJATW
    10 abyzmul
    11 The Waterboy

    Snake draft so in subsequent rounds the order reverses. I somehow killed my phone last night so I won't be able to keep up while I'm out today, I'm thinking most of you will be able to follow the order.

    @Bellows1 is on the clock, the 2017 Death Pool is now open for business.

    I'm guessing this already happened? I was trying to forget the Jets existed.

    Yep, draft has been done for a couple of weeks now. Last years Death Pool took 13 days to get the first hit, this one is going on 16 days without a hit. I'm firing my scouting department.
