Alternates work like we discussed earlier. They only come into play if one of your starters doesn’t see the field. Although you must maintain an eligible formation, or you will not receive points. You do not get to decide which alternate to put in, it goes Alt#1 and then Alt #2.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Supplemental Draft begins Friday @ 9 AM. You may replace up to three players, but only if they have been eliminated. Each player will have 30 mins to draft. Please post your phone number in the Google Doc (most already have) so that you can be texted when it is your turn. If you do not make a pick, you will be skipped and may draft anytime afterwards. Lowest scoring poster will go first, three round snake draft. If you want to draft less than 3 players please let us know so that we can skip through your later picks.

Add/Drop to follow. They are due by 8 AM on Saturday morning. Please PM which players you want to Add and Drop. First come, (time stamp in message) first serve. However once you are given your first pick, you will be moved to the back of the line. Also, I will not accept any Add/Drop messages until the supplemental draft is completed. I will do my best to have all Add/Drop selections finalized and approved by 9:30 AM on Saturday so if you make any, you need to be around at that time to set your final ROUND OF 16 Starting XI before the 10 AM match. Do not rely on other posters to remind you. if you don't set your lineup in time, your new players will not eligible in the upcoming round. I will take a 10 AM screenshot.

This will be the final draft and add/drop of the tournament, so choose wisely. After Saturday your rosters are final for the remainder of the tournament.

Manifest messaged me that he also wants in. So that's 13 if DV7 wants to play.

Next steps: I'll create a google doc and share it with everyone, so everyone needs to PM or rep me your Google address.
After that I'll send a Venmo request for $10 to each address (or another address or email if you prefer). If that doesn't work for you I can do PayPal. If that doesn't work for you, quit the internet.
