Does anyone want to speculate who will get taken second? Or anyone think Pac won't go first?

How I think it might go. Not necessarily what I would do though (but yes I would take Pac 1st). Heavily taking into account availability and experience*s.
So many good playas overall, it's hard to make any list. I have a feeling of breakout appearances, too. Every player signed up has potential, I look forward to it all!
1) Pacificoaster
2) sey
3) AvanineCommuter
4) belgianguy
5) cocoa
6) wheres_walto -

It's obvious that gdb will go first. Pac will go second and after that I have no clue. -

Here guys, this should help a lot: http://parkmakers.com/h2h7/
Careful... once you leave the page you cannot comeback to what you did or re-enter it as text and be able to sort again. Might want to just leave the page open.
Please let me know if any info is wrong. Everyone signed-up was added (even captains in case people want to make an overall player rankings list) and if more people sign-up I'll add them when I can.

There is no way for me to see what you enter. Notice the URL never changes and there is no submitting of anything. It's fine tho, just be paranoid if you like.

I support kumba's efforts to provide external tools to help the community
I am also not just saying this because he has the list displayed in alphabetical order so I'm #1 -

]['s LL Editorial
Wholesale LL-only teams are certainly not out of the question, but it remains a risky path if your goal is a competitive squad. (If you just want to see more sweet LL work, then nothing is really stopping you.) This season has a field of 19-20 LL-capable players, with a very borderline 9-12 considered primarily LL or equally capable. Considering that many of those players will be drafted for their RCT2 talents, it could be hard to even meet a ten-player roster of LL builders.
It seems more likely that the LL (and similarly NCSO) players will be split up begween teams. Anybody who is planning a strong LL effort would be smart to grab proven double threats like Liam and Cocoa as soon as possible, though you could also form a solid LL core with one veteran like Milo or Roomie and a few newer LL names like Poke or Wouter. Picking up Liam or Cocoa is a very safe move since you essentially get a proven RCT2 talent and the possibility of a great LL pairing as well. There's also the players who aren't known for LL, either because they haven't shown work or haven't built in it recently. These are high-risk prospects that are safest when added onto a team already capable of finishing a LL round or two, and they could be very useful as assistant builders to help arrange your best LL'ers to meet the legal limits. -

You do know Loopy signed up right?
I think there is a good chance of a first Hurricanes LL park. All depends how the draft goes, but I would be happy to work on LL and consider myself a duel game threat.

I'm going out on a limb and saying there will be an LL park better then Jerusalem this season. -

Also if half the LL players are on one team the matchup thread will be boring since lots of people won't be able to vote.
Agree with most of your essay. Mostly the part where you advise the captains to pick me. -

I used Kumba's list to make my project power rankings list. Some notes:
-Obviously, this is opinionated so don't bash me too hard for favoring one player over another
-I made a lot of tough calls judging by how active they have been in recent years (hence why Six Frags isn't a top 10 player, for example)
-the top 40 is really deep, then it seems to drop dramatically in terms of player talent
-new players were difficult to rank, so that's why I only did a top 40
1.) Pacificcoaster
2.) robbie
3.) Kumba
4.) Roomie
5.) Cocoa
6.) AvanineCommuter
7.) sey
8.) ][ntamin
9.) BelgianGuy
10.) Loopy
11.) FK+coastermind
12.) Coupon (Love his work)
13.) Seb
14.) Liampie
15.) Wheres_Walto
16.) nin
17.) inthemanual (he's gonna have a big tournament I think)
18.) disneylandian192
19.) JimmyLaessig (potential to be the breakout player of the year)
20.) Maverix
21.) Steve
22.) Shotguns?
23.) Stoksy
24.) Milo
25.) Fisch
26.) Six Frags
27.) RCT2day
28.) FredD
29.) Scotland's Finest
30.) Trav
31.) PizzaWurscht (another with huge potential)
32.) Arjan

I really enjoyed myself while making this list. It really gives you a good feel of what every captain has to do and really familiarizes yourself with your competition. I encourage anyone with some time to spare to do this.
