The draft date selection was a bit more complicated this year, as every date had at least 2 and most had 4 or more days when people could not attend.  But it appears that the best date for the draft is the default date of Saturday, August 23rd.

As a result proposals will be due on midnight Eastern time on Saturday, August 16th (that's midnight between the 16th and 17th).  The Werewolves, or whatever they end up being called, will have the #1 pick for the first time since 1993.  The rest of the draft order can be seen here.

The location of the draft is still to be determined, so anyone that wishes to volunteer to host it please let me know.  The draft of course will be available remotely as well, for those unable to make the physical location.  As per the agreement from a couple of years ago, the draft will be scheduled for 1pm Eastern time.
