Like Mike said, it would allow more than ample time to scout (and trade). To me option 3 is not an option. Simming on back to back days is something we've set out to end. It's best to just have patience around the holidays.
Option 2 isn't bad, but with the 22nd (proposed draft) being Saturday before Christmas I can see the turnout being poor as it's probably a prime night for extended family Christmas parties.
Option 1 is good, but I think it can simply get better if we sim as much as we can before Christmas. Here's the proposal I'm talking about in full:
Sim 1: Friday 14th
Sim 2: Sunday 16th
Sim 3: Tuesday 18th
Sim 4: Friday 21st
22nd to 29th - Break
Draft: Sunday 30th
Sim 5: Wednesday 2nd
Sim 6: Friday 4th
etc...
This would get us back on the usual sim schedule and not throw off future seasons.
this would be ideal. we should start a draft thread (which might actually work if we have a week off), which would allow teams with the top picks to get guys they want or trade down. this would also ensure that people have time to scout instead of just kind of going in blind between finals and holiday parties. this seems like a no-loss scenario.
