Yeah I think the first poll to have is one on structure.
Not so much just base around 2 guns without a vote. The selection committee could pool player groups by price bracket once they know the structure of it is indeed Gun half and Prop as you suggest.
Would need some bankroll management but 3 poll options could be something like;
Hookers
1. Gun Hooker with value backup
2. Gun Hooker with Gun backup
3. Hooker frenzy (3-4 of them)
Props
1. Gun FRF with Value partner and 1 cheap backup
2. 2 value props with value backup (one of them DPP)
3. 1 gun 1 cheap with cheap backup
Half
1. 1 Gun 1 Rookie with rookie backup
2. 2 value picks with rookie backup
3. 1 value 1 rookie with DPP value backup
Bench = Above mentioned backups plus base price rookies padding out
I’m not entirely sure the numbers pool together perfectly but get the drift.
First vote on team structure then start the player pool voting from your very good initial list for the slots avail
I think there is a high chance that this method would lead to competing ideas that can't all be done in the same team.
the method that I used to construct the cookie cutter team was to take all highest % owned players then removed the most expensive players with the lowest ownership that didn't fit under cap at the end. I think a similar approach could be taken here, at TLT.
Just put up a list by position and everyone votes. Could limit to maybe 2 selections at hooker, 3 in front row, 5 at 2rf, 3 in halves, 3 in centres, 5 at wfb which is 21 votes in total. Then those with highest selection % make it into the team. We ascertain those most selected and then see how we look for the cap.
Then if there are maybe 18 players that are definite and maybe 3 different combinations that would work under the cap, everyone gets to vote on those 3 options. Should be the fastest and simplest way to get a team together.
Team make up would be more by the % selection, rather than any other method. I. E. If the 3rd most voted hooker has a higher selection % than the 5th highest wfb we would go with a 3rd hooker.
DPP players would be allocated to the hardest to fill positions to give the most options. 2rf would be easiest to fill so any 2rf/frf would go in frf voting, any 2rf/Ctr would be listed at Ctr as the preferred playing position for Nikora, capewell etc. Ctr/web get listed at wfb as Ctr will be taken up by the genuine Ctr options like nikora, capewell, holland.
We could do a pre tlt team using this method now so everyone gets to see how it works, then finalise the actual team post tlt
