    I'll reduce the timer to 5 hours per pick.

    I'm just throwing an idea out there, but would it be better to just have the draft paused during certain times (if even possible)?

    I'm just thinking, especially with adjusting it down to 5 hours per pick, people are going to miss their picks all together because they come up during the middle of the work day or middle of the night. Yes, we can send our lists into you Fade, but I'm sure you have work and need to sleep at night as well.

    What if we just have the active draft hours between 6-12 every night with a half hour to an hour per pick?

    Again, just throwing out an idea.

    It's a good idea, and this type of thing has been talked about before but it never works because it's impossible to get this crowd all together at once.

    No problem when we have fresh blood join the league, but they don't start off on the right foot when they first admit they are a Yankees fan and second continue to let their time elapse.................Either be here to make your pick or send a list..............really not that hard of a concept......... :rolleyes:

    I'm on and off the board all day at work and some nights. Anyone can also email their picks through the board. ANYTHING to help speed this up.

    Someone needs to relay this info. to Hotballa as he's the one holding up the draft just about every time. 3 total picks today. Pathetic.
