Just a quick question and maybe I just don't understand these things.  If i'm 23rd on the list and I choose closer to 24, how I am now 15th in the draft?
Let's see if the new guy understands this:  you had the 23rd (which became 19th with owners dropping) pick of Draft spots.  9 of the 22 owners who selected Draft spots prior to you selected closer to 24 also.  Follow the closer to 24 selections right down the Draft spot selection list, and you have the order from 24 backward in the actual Draft.  Am I correct?
That's the part I didn't think of, the dropped owners.  We should think about how that is done........

Yeah just I feel new guys should be in the middle of the list rather than the bottom.  It makes the people who stay in the league get closer to the draft position they want.

No.  The ODL system is perfect, and unlike other draft formats, there is no bad place to draft in the ODL.  All you have to do is play one season and then you're on the same footing as everyone else... and, like I said, you can win anywhere.  I won my very first ODL drafting 15 and have won drafting in a multitude of places, almost always having the last pick for where I could draft, with the exception of 2 or 3 new owners.

regardless I believe the returning owners should have a better shot of getting to where they want to draft
