## What you draft in a Halloween candy draft

Group your candies however makes sense, then sort and filter the board with your own columns.

**Rounds and categories:** Chocolate, Fruity, Sour, Gum, Novelty

**What goes in the pool:** Draft candies like these — or paste in any list of your own: Reese's, Twix, Sour Patch Kids, Candy corn (somebody has to)

## Go live with your Halloween candy draft

1. **Build the pool.** Start from the ready-made Halloween Candy Draft template in the marketplace, or upload your own CSV of candies.
2. **Invite the group.** Share one join link. Set the order (or randomize it), choose snake, auction, or hybrid, and everyone readies up in the lobby.
3. **Draft it live.** Synced clocks, live chat, and sound alerts keep 3–15 people locked in from the first pick to the last.

## Halloween Candy Draft questions

### How do I run a halloween candy draft?

Pick a template (or upload a CSV of your candies), invite everyone by link, set the order, and hit start. The draft runs itself on a shared clock — most groups are drafting within five minutes of signing up.

### Does everyone need an account?

Anyone drafting needs a free account so their picks are theirs, but joining takes seconds from the invite link. Spectators need nothing at all — flip on public spectating and they just watch.

### Can we do this with a remote or hybrid team?

That is the point. The clock is server-authoritative, so everyone sees the same board and the same countdown whether they are in the conference room or three time zones away. Auto-pick covers anyone stuck in a meeting.

### What if we have nothing to draft from?

Start from a template in the marketplace and edit it, or paste your own list into the CSV template we generate for you. A halloween candy draft pool is usually one column of names.

### When should we schedule it?

The last week of October is the natural moment, but you can schedule a draft for any date and time and everyone gets the same link. Everyone you invite plays free, however many people join.
