Event 5, League 2 - AL Only live draft

[edgecitytx]

You just draft all AL players and then drop any NL players you get in the autodraft.

For some reason the draft skipped by [b:6a5ce31b83]MaMillers's[/b:6a5ce31b83] pick in the 8th round, yet then made a pick for him in the 9th round?

I've "Paused" the draft until we can figure this out and make sure that MaMiller doesn't get skipped when he shouldn't.

Any thoughts guys?

[b:6a5ce31b83]Keyzick[/b:6a5ce31b83], if you'll check in and let me know that you won't "skip" me, then I'll "Unpause" the draft so that [b:6a5ce31b83]MaMiller[/b:6a5ce31b83] can make his 8th round pick.

Hey Coffee, no problem, I won't skip you....or will I... :twisted: :twisted:

Kidding of course, I'll wait til the situation is resolved.

Do we know for sure it was a proxy that fired on his last pick? Maybe he picked on his own and didn't realize one pick was skipped?

[Coffeeholic]

Hey [b:cf6692900d]Kezick[/b:cf6692900d]! Glad you were close by! 8-)

I'm not sure if [b:cf6692900d]MaMiller's[/b:cf6692900d] 9th round pick was a proxy or a manual pick. What do you think?

So, If there's no objections, I'll "Unpause" the draft then and we'll wait for [b:cf6692900d]MaMiller[/b:cf6692900d] to fill in his blank 8th round pick then?

Could mamiller have set his proxies by Round instead of Group?

[Delbird]

I would agree, he likely has proxies by round (which is how I do them also), and his round 8 proxies were probably taken so no pick was done, but his round 9 proxy was still good, so a pick was made.

[Coffeeholic]

Well, gotta head out again. Should be back around 6:00.

The time of mamiller's 9th round pick is the exact time to the second that you would expect a proxy to execute. He was skipped in the 8th because he was past his time limit. The only way that could have happened was he ran out of proxies specifically for the 8th round but had sufficient proxies for the 9th round specifically. To me, nothing abnormal happened here. Let's unpause the draft! :)

[keyzick]

Yeah...I'd agree...he can make up that pick when he checks in.

I'll wait on Coffee though

[edgecitytx]

I think we should wait on Coffee, too, but I agree we should be moving. We've lost almost a whole day over this.
