Below are the results of this year’s Meta Draft
Lottery. The lottery was conducted in
Chapel Hill, NC, by me, Vivek, and Vivek’s lady friend, Kathrin, and yes, these
were the actual results. (I'll remind you--or, inform you, I guess, just in case your name isn't Annan--that Vivek is a Certified Public Accountant and a former corporate auditor. He brought the same diligence to his vetting of this process as he did to his stellar work in the private sector.)
As you all
know, we conduct the lottery by pulling pieces of paper out of a hat. Your league finish determines the number of
paper pieces you have; i.e., the worse you finished, the better your odds of
getting a high pick. We lottery off each
pick in the Meta Draft, meaning that the first piece of paper pulled gets the
first pick in the Meta Draft, the next unique team name pulled gets the second
pick, and so on. Here were the odds
going in:
1. Brew Ha Bandits (28 pieces)
2. Vujabitches (20 pieces)
3. Block O (16 pieces)
4. Metta World Peas (12 pieces)
5. 28 Light Years Old (9 pieces)
6. YoungGayLoveFavors (6 pieces)
7. Balding Ballers (4 pieces)
8. Arbitrageurs (3 pieces)
9. Knights of Rodanthe (2 pieces)
10. Nutcrushers (1 piece)
And, without further ado, here is the Meta Draft order:
First pick: Angelo
(Knights of Rodanthe) (jumping from 9 to 1, the biggest jump in league history)
Second pick:
J.J. (Vujabitches) (right on the odds)
Third pick: Vivek (28
Light Years Old) (jumped from 5 to 3)
Fourth pick: Me
(Metta World Peas) (right on the odds)
Fifth pick: Anna
(Block O) (down from 3 to 5)
Sixth pick: Alan
(Brew-Ha Bandits) (down from 1 to 6; sorry, Alan)
Seventh pick: Bob
(Balding Ballers) (right on the odds)
Eighth pick: Nick
(Nutcrushers) (up from last to 8)
Ninth pick: Annan
(Arbitrageurs) (down from 8 to 9)
Tenth pick: Chris
(YoungGayLoveFavors) (down from 6 to last; sorry, Chris)
So, that will be the order in our Meta Draft. We'll start the Meta Draft next week (after Memorial Day), so stay tuned to your email.
