Topic: Draft decks a format?

In my decklists I have a section for draft decks.  I play in tournaments and we us deckboxes' events feature.  However I can not have the event collect the information for my deck since it is labeled as 'incomplete'.  Also it is labeled as 'standard'.  First I think that draft should be a proper label.  Secondly, I believe that manual options for labeling a deck should be created.  If I use all Modern cards in a legacy or vintage deck deckbox would label it automatically as modern despite it being used in a different format.  Could manual labeling be an option in addition to the automatic settings for decks?  Can 'Draft deck' be a format much like 'Standard', 'Modern', 'Legacy' etc?  Could both be implemented since not all draft decks will consist of 40 cards?  Can 'Tiny Leaders' be a format please?

I have the same problems.

Yes! Maybe even some freeform labeling.

I'd go with the the freeform. If you are going to add Tiny Leaders, you should also add Soulless, Pauper EDH (PDH), Block Constructed, Cube, Singleton, Rainbow Stairwell, Prismatic, Noble, Fat Stack, and many others.

Good point. 40 card decks should be marked as drafted.

And Tiny leaders at 50! (Could also add the other conditions: Legacy, Singleton, CMC <=3 only, at least one Legendary creature - would be cool to be able to denote a card as the Commander to enforce the commander colours rule)

What of draft decks that utilize more than 40 cards?
