I need a suggestion for deciding my FF league's draft order prior to the draft day. ?

Question

I need a random way to decide the draft order. I also need to prove to the owners that it was random. We draft live but most of us want to know the order prior to draft day for research.

Answer 1

That's tough if you can't get at least a few of you together. When we have decided before the draft we just made sure at least 3 people were there to keep it honest.

The next best option is probably this:

It is a random order generator that emails everyone in the league with their position when you start it.

Good luck!

Answer 2

take one suit of playing cards, Ace-queen, shuffle, write the names of the teams down, and then draw a card for each team.  Ace is first choice, Two is second, ...Queen is 12th choice.  that determines the order.

If someone doesn't trust you prior to the draw, request that they fly and meet you at a local bar and verify it as it happens.

Other option is just to wait for 15 minutes prior to draft and let it randomly choose although if you come up number one, you and the league will all question it.
