    At this pace, we will still be drafting at the All-Star break [​IMG]

    I'm starting to think the slow draft is not such a hot idea.....I especially liked the way Sandbox went down earlier. I thought that was a nice touch.

    WTF??? Has anybody "updated" lately? I get a screen that has no rounds chart and no queue?

    Nevermind...it's back again....

    I'm beginning to think this is another lost night. It is so hard to get everyone together to draft this way. Much easier and faster to rank the players you want and let sandbox do the draft.

    It wouldn't be so bad if there was livelier posting going on. But re-reading I screw sheeps and being compared to Mango has been the highlight of this night.

    Ok Finn...looks like you are on your own. I have a game at 8 in the morning. I'll come check again in thirty minutes or so, and if nothing has happened, I'll be out of here for good tonight. I'll be in and out all day tomorrow, so maybe we can make something happen.

    Damnit.. This sucks.

    Whose idea was it to do slow draft anyway? [​IMG]


    If you can't check in now and then throughout the day, do the rest of us a favor and go into auto-draft mode.

    Well, I went to freaking auto mode after 4pm today and I just picked about 20 mins ago. So, how about we all agree that after Sunday if this damn thing isn't finished we all go Auto, b/c 1 week to draft is ridiculous.

    while ill admit i dont like waiting to make my pick that long..i think auto-drafting for everyone is bad..if were gonna do that then why have a draft..cuz it means top rated players go in order..now if u let everyone queue people its different..

    Let's recognize that we all choose to join a 'slow' live draft. The first day of spring training contests just went down yesterday. I think expectations are a bit high. I admit it is frustrating at times, but last year, in the No Doam Foam league (which a few people on the BBS are participating in this year) the draft took over three weeks, but, still the teams were set well before the season started. Also keep in mind that the first rounds, up until ten, are big picks that many not want to be on auto for. Trust me, by the time Round 21 comes around, most of us will be on auto, and the draft will race to the finish line.
