What types of drafts does Fleaflicker offer?
Fleaflicker offers three types of drafts:
- Live Draft - Owners connect online to use our live draft room to complete the draft; they will get 30 seconds to 4 minutes per selection (configurable). The draft must be scheduled at a specific date and time. The commissioner can pause the draft as long as necessary and can use "Commish Draft" to make selections for owners if needed. Owners that are absent for a live draft will automatically have their rosters drafted for them.
- Email Draft - Owners are notified via email when it's their turn to draft (or when any selection is made, depending on their account settings). There is no time limit on selections (unless a commish communicates and enforces one) and an email draft does not need to be scheduled. Draft picks can be traded during an email draft and commissioners will have a "Commish Draft" option.
- Import Rosters (Offline Draft) - Allows you to hold your draft in-person (or however you like) and then manually input the results afterwards.
We don't currently support an auto-draft or autopick setting (in which the system automatically for all teams in the league on a scheduled draft date) however we do offer the following workaround: Schedule a live draft, have at least one owner enter the live draft room, set their team as away, and allow the clock to expire for every pick. Only one owner needs to stay in the draft room for this to work – all others will be automatically drafted.
Note: You must keep the live draft window open until the draft completes.
