Repeat qs: Are the baseline rankings the same for every team or not? And will inactive and bot teams pick exactly according to the initial order?

Are you supposed to be allowed to do a scouting combine and a group demonstration, because I just did a combine and now both buttons are ghosted?

I am having the same problem. I did a scouting combine and now both buttons are ghosted. I still have 16 points left.

Probably not.
From the "News: Welcome to Season 13!":
Each team will have its own baseline rankings, but the amount of uncertainty in each set of rankings will be the same
Every team initially has nine 5-ball, ten 4-ball, ten 3-ball, ten 2-ball and nine 1-ball players. Every team's initial order is from the highest to the lowest. And finally, because every team has its own baseline ranking the initial order will be different for every team in your league.

The part "the amount of uncertainty in each set of rankings will be the same" probably means what Alec Burke previously said (154960.391). Perhaps this post (149639.22) provides an answer in favor to his position (answered by BB-Edju).

And for your second question, also from the "News: Welcome to Season 13!":
... Also, bot teams will now choose players according to the baseline rankings rather than at random.
So yes, they will chose exactly according to their baseline rankings/initial order.

Hey guys,just a quick question about drafting :
Ive been playing for about 3-4 seasons now and i love the game but i never really paid attention to the drafting and since there's a new system now,im trying to utilize it. My question is,how do i know what draft pick i would get? I know weaker teams get the higher pick but roughly what number will my pick be?

Thanks in advance :)

If the draft is today, you'll pick 15 in order.

Draft order works off the win/loss record of the entire 16 teams in your league. For example the worst win/loss record gets the first pick, second worst win/loss record gets the second pick etc. "Ties in the standings are broken first by number of forfeits (indicated by a * next to the number of losses a team has), followed by point differential, then points scored." So in your league you have the 2nd best record so will be picking 15th (2nd last)
