Garcia's Blog 5/8/14- ATG 8 Followup/Draft Turn Durations

PostThu May 08, 2014 4:30 pm

Hey guys,

In case anyone missed last week, I announced that we are working on an ATG 8 player set. A poll was also posted asking whether or not salaries should be changed in the new ATG release. You can find more on this here and the poll here. Thank you to everyone who voted. It's clear that the majority of ATG users want to see a change in salaries for the ATG 8.

We also want to thank everyone who sent in their suggestions and comments regarding the new set. We apologize to those that we have not been able to get back to but we have read everything that has come in and we will take all of this into consideration when deciding the best way on how to reprice these players.

We also have been considering adding more live draft time durations. Most live draft leagues so far have been using the 45 second time duration so we have considered adding additional 15 and 30 second durations as well. A new poll has been posted here allowing you to vote if you would like to see these turn durations added.

The last option on the poll represents a different style of drafting, one that many of you have used over on the Diamond Dope site. That is an extended turn duration draft. his means a draft doesn't necessarily have to be done in one sitting as it will allow a draft to be run over a number of days. Examples of these turn durations could be 10 minutes or 3 hours and would only allow drafting at certain times of the day. This is a much longer project and would not be able to be added to the site as quickly as we can with the shorter durations. Right now we are just looking to see how many people are interested in such a draft.

Please vote for any and all options that you wish to see added.

That's all I have for this week. As always if anyone has any questions/comments please let us know at onlinegamesupport@strat-o-matic.com. Have a great weekend and talk to you all next Thursday!

-John
