I think that Lotus is better than a mox. If I was taking a spell it would have been Time Walk or Mind Twist. All of which I rate over Library in this format.
These seemed better than average to me, so I tried again with similar results:
T2 Bribery
T1 Blastoderm
T3 keiga
T1 porcelain legionaire+tidehollow sculler

What would you have gone for in my place?
I'd have taken Library. I'm not at all convinced it's significantly worse in this format. Or maybe Mox Ruby.
As public service announcement, if you are waiting to pick and know what you want (or have a range of cards you want), then PLEASE feel free to PM me (or Phantizle) a picklist and we'll be happy to pick the highest card still available for you when it's your turn to draft.
If everyone takes 12 hours to draft, this draft will take more than 5 months to complete.
Edit: I did consider Mox Ruby, but then I decided I would rather have THREE mox rubies

Alas, you don't have three mox rubies as yours dies.
What would you have gone for in my place?
1) T1 Jace, the mind sculptor
2) T1 mother of runes, T2 Thornling
3) T1 Koth of the Hammer
4) This was the least exciting: I could choose between T1 vamp tutor cultivate or keep the lotus for an early Flametongue kavu or black sun's zenith
5) T1 master of the wild hunt

Yeah, it's a bad topdeck, but the card's good.
I feel compelled to repeat everything I hear
Hicham, Make sure to PM me (or merl going the other way) after you pick.
Library of Alexandria please. Ho-Hum.

Can we pencil you in for Mind Twist?
Edit: In 30 mins, I'm going to assume yes.
This is where it gets interesting. What's the next best picks? Demonic Tutor, Jace2, Moxen, Jitte, Skullclamp, Survival?
He did, he just didn't post it here. Check the spreadsheet.
Yeah, I took the red Mox just before going to work. Didn't have time to post about it.
A lot of powerfull cards still out there, but a mox is a mox is a mox.

Thanks to Spiderboy4 at High~Light Studios for the AMAZING signature.
I wish I could, haha.
I hate you.

Vampiric over Demonic?

I'm assuming that was so he could get the T2 Survival going.
