Scouting will work as follows:

- Teams may scout a total of fifteen players. An exception to this rule is that teams with three or more picks in the first 40 picks of the draft may scout twenty players.
- Internationals can't be scouted
- Teams may scout each player's ratings fifteen times. The way this works is that owners pick which rating categories (o-o/d-o/p-o/t-o/o-d/d-d/p-d/t-d/2ga/2g%/fta/fg%/3ga/3g%/orb/drb/ast/stl/to/blk) they want to scout, with the information they receive being a range in which the player's actual value for that rating falls. An individual rating may be scouted up to three times, with each time counting for one of the fifteen scouting opportunities and each scout leading to a smaller range of values in which the player's actual rating falls. Here's an example:

(What gets sent to me)
Player to scout #1: Joe Player
Ratings to scout: o-o (x2), d-o (x2), o-d (x2), d-d, t-d, 3ga (x3), blk (x2), 2ga, 2g%

(What you get back)
o-o: 5
d-o: 5
o-d: 7
d-d: 5-7
t-d: 6-8
3ga: 46
blk: 55-59
2ga: 30-44
2g%: 39-53

I ask that the PMs I receive for scouting have "Scouting: Seattle Supersonics" (with your team's city and name) in the subject so as to allow me to keep track of things better.

- Scouting two times for o-o/d-o/o-d/d-d/etc. will give you the actual value for that rating. For the specific stat category ratings (2ga/2g%/etc.), scouting two times will give you a range of 5 in which the actual rating value falls. Scouting three times will give you the actual rating.

Hopefully that was straightforward enough. Ask questions if you have to, I can answer them.

Owners can (but do not need to) make a "big board" for their team that ranks anywhere from 2 to 58 players. This way, if you are not present when draft picks are being made, I can make a pick for you based on your existing rankings. If a big board is not in place, I will look at who the highest rated player still available is (from the top down on the grades spreadsheet - internationals are autopicked last) and select that player for the team. Big boards should be PMed to my inbox when completed, just as scouting lists should be.

I'll remind you to pay attention to how many scouting points get you what - I try to get back to you if I see something wrong, but I make no promises that I'll do so if I'm in a hurry/swamped with scouting.

I don't always read PMs right away, so if you have a question or something pressing that you're including with your scouting you should make a note of it in the PM title. The following teams can't scout this draft class due to being over the "hard cap" this season:

Sweet, 20 players is a help. Looking forward to seeing what I can get.

Initial scouting is looking pretty solid, the main thing is that there is no clear cut #1 guy, or even #2 and #3 guy in this draft, so it will be interesting to see how it goes once things fall down to me.

Those of you waiting on scouting at the moment should expect to get results back later today (within the next twelve hours).

**King Joseus** · 12-18-2012, 03:16 AM

Got through a few scouting PMs, still a few to go in my inbox that I'll try to tackle before I go to bed tonight.

Do I get to see the actual ratings since I don't have a horse in the race, KJ?

I guess that's the point of this little experiment, isn't it?

**King Joseus** · 12-18-2012, 07:19 AM

You'll get to see them when everyone else does....just in case.

**King Joseus** · 12-18-2012, 07:20 AM

**RollWithEm** · 12-18-2012, 07:21 AM

I see how it is.

(Feel like this is luring Chip Kelly to the NFL)

**Goulet** · 12-18-2012, 07:23 AM

I mean listen to the podcasts... That will get you interested and caught up with things

**RollWithEm** · 12-18-2012, 07:40 AM

Are these podcasts stored somewhere or can they only be heard live?
