It looks like it's the same general idea in that each GM in an online league logs in, makes their draft list and then the program automatically processes the draft until it gets to a team that hasn't made a draft list yet and then it waits until they do or the commish logs in and makes an auto-pick if their clock runs out. Does it add anything to that like automatically sending out emails of what player you ended up getting or emails notifying you that you're on the clock or emails to the commish of everything?

I only have seen an older version of BOSI, I think, so I can only compare to that. Things (I think) it does better than BOSI on:
- Allows auto-drafting
- Allows draft lists, and auto-picking from draft lists
- It's faster
- Better search capabilities
- Easier management of administrating draft (trading picks, editing picks, etc).
- Works for inaugural drafts as well
- Allows serpentine draft orders, and conceivably sandwich picks
- Works on OOTP 2007
Things BOSI is better on:
- Has a draft clock (soon to be added to my util).
I looked into auto-sending of emails on picks, etc., but I couldn't get it to work for some reason. I may revisit this later.
