I'm closing this out. We need to move ahead and get the details nailed down so people have time to plan before RFA declarations. I re-read this voting thread and the long discussion thread (
http://www.predsff.com/forums/showth...7&page=1&pp=30) and everyone seems to agree on the need for the change. Even those who voted against it really just differed on the details, not the need for the change itself.
So, we are instituing the point based system generally laid out by Brian. Of the two remaining points of discussion, one was essentially resolved in the other thread:
As to the ordering of the comp picks, 6 wanted it done by starting tender level (w/ amount over tender as tie-breaker), 2 wanted amount over tender, and 0 wanted same as draft order. I'm calling that a done deal.
The remaining issue of how to award the comp picks was split: 4 for predetermined (though one is no longer in the league), 3 for predetermined but with the option to drop down, and 1 for cafeteria-style. I will open a new voting thread to resolve this final issue.
