2024 Straight Draft Guide

How we got here

Happy 20th anniversary, Straight Draft Guide! For the long-time readers, thanks for sticking with us. For the newcomers… welcome! We have tinkered with our approach quite a bit over the years. Some of that work is best left to the archives, but in the spirit of "showing our work", we present the (nearly) full archive of prior SDGs anyway:

History: 2023 | 2022 | 2021 | 2020 | 2019 | 2018 | 2017 | 2016 | 2015 | 2014 | 2013 | 2012 | 2011 | 2010 | 2009 | 2008 | 2007 | 2006 | 2005

(We're thrilled that our full history has migrated over from the old site… although the 2022 edition is apparently still in transit somewhere!)
