The Schnoogens No-Theme League Draft Chat

[quote:9dbfb69b04]What do people think about having the clock "off" starting tonight and then through the weekend? Most people have tomorrow off and I don't want to cause people to be skipped because they are with their families.[/quote:9dbfb69b04]

My vote is to go with whatever you and "group conscience" wants. As someone who won't be that effected by the holidays (Xmas Eve with my sister, but that's it, really) and will be online throughout, the clock being on won't matter.

If [i:9dbfb69b04][b:9dbfb69b04]everyone[/b:9dbfb69b04][/i:9dbfb69b04] can proxy three rounds ahead (I learned how to do it from the folks here, and if I can learn it, any bozo can), it wouldn't be a totally unproductive weekend.

But if even [u:9dbfb69b04]one[/u:9dbfb69b04] manager says "screw it," and doesn't [i:9dbfb69b04]either[/i:9dbfb69b04] proxy OR get on and make his picks with the clock off, then it won't work. If anyone is thinking of doing that, [i:9dbfb69b04]just let us know[/i:9dbfb69b04] and we'll just take a vacation till Monday at 9:00 a.m.

I, for one, am going to proxy four rounds, put it in the ON position, and be online as well, so there won't be any holdup here.

durantjerry can pick anytime

[artie4121]

Question: If three hours run out on [i:dba174433f]Durantjerry[/i:dba174433f] as well, does the system kick permission to you, Schnoogens?

Also, please let us know your decision on now till Monday:

1. Clock off with the hope that folks will proxy up; or

2. Just start up again on Monday (hopefully with more concern about the 3 hour time limit :roll: )

I will be travelling during the "no show" work week bw the holidays. I will do my best to set proxies and access the draft.

Happy holidays.

Clock off is fair, although I'd hope people could set up proxies, as Artie mentioned.

Right now manleeman and durantjerry both should have picked. Although we can't blame Jerry if he set up his proxies and the system won't fire off his pick because it won't skip someone without manual intervention.

Sooooo...we're stuck on zero progress today

[schnoogens]

I'll be turning the clock off tonight for the weekend. Please submit proxies and try to check in regularly if you can so that we can manually kick off some picks in case someone has passed their picking time.

I just checked and it wasn't letting me select anyone...I'll check again soon.

Logjam broken . . for now. BigM is close to end of his day, so maybe no more progress tonight. . .

In any case, Merry Xmas to you all if you don't check back in here.

I'll be here thru the weekend, so see you then.

Hi guys, I am traveling for Christmas and trying to continue drafting on my iPhone. Somehow I ended up with Doug Fister, although I have no memory of drafting him. Can I do a drop please? I'm sure nobody else wanted him. Let me know ASAP.

[artie4121]

Big M, I accepted your drop request . . . hope no other managers mind (don't think they will in the spirit of the Holiday :)

You're good to go. . .

Artie

Thanks Artie!

Merry Christmas everyone! :D
