Doing an auction draft online (1 Viewer)

[Wooderson]

If have a couple teams in league that may not be able to fly back for our auction draft. Has anyone done in auction online or with a phone? Any tips? I think it would be just a big pain.

I'm having the same issue. We've talked about using Skype and a speakerphone. I'll let you know how it goes.

Speakerphone, and/or IM is the way to go.

Speakerphone

Has worked for us nicely.

Depends on the quality and type of speakerphone.

We use to run our auction through chat and it worked great. THe people who can congregate can just meet at someone house with a wireless connection, and you are off and running.

MFL.com is really good for slow auctions. U could use it for free for the next month or so.

Conference call might work too... trail and error is ur best answer

Would fantasyauctioneer.com work for a fast passed auction?

For a live draft online, FA has the best setup - BUT there are drawbacks - enough that using a speakerphone or "at draft helpers" on cell phones OR doing it in a private chat room are preferable (if you use either of the latter methods, it is a huge plus to get a non-bidding auctioneer to handle the duties so the commissioner can actually draft his team and keep track of everything).
