this looks really fun, if it turns out well, I'd love to see a draft cup in the future which gives captains a pool of money to buy their picks with like in this this thread. might encourage some more interesting picking strategies

People already over budget when they had time to think about it can't imagine what would happen in live picking where your picks get sniped. Would still be funny to watch though.

Can't say what everyone else on the NA production teams schedules are like, but I work midnight to 8am on weekends, so I'll be missing this one :(
