QUICKSILVER 6 XV CHAT

[Simon31]

Guys...let's welcome andycummings65 to the 15th round of the Quicksilver League! We certainly didn't lower our competitive standards with his addition! Good to see everyone else could make it back!

[b:060e9d98be]We will be doing our live draft FRIDAY JULY 23rd at 7:30 est right here on the message boards.[/b:060e9d98be] Too many problems with Adrian's DD site and I'm not sure those problems have been resolved so we'll just do it the old fashioned way!

I'll repost the rules thread before the draft but for now here's a recap:
[b:060e9d98be]100 mil, WITH DH this round, advanced and 5/10/20 on the drops.[/b:060e9d98be]

[Simon31]

[quote:cce8d1a201]serpentine right?![/quote:cce8d1a201] Right!
And the last time I did stats (which I reeeally need to catch up on) the playoffs were made twice drafting 11th.

Has agabriel addressed whatever issues were contributing to his site's molasses?

i can't find that old thread, would probably help to post a link. my vote would be against. that's 5"30 pacific, and im out of touch for quite a bit of 6-630 which would be a lot earlier and more crucial in a later draft...might be close to over at original start time. if vote wins out, ill just proxy heavily as best I can, which might be the solution for whoever needs it voted in.

Let's discuss this a bit between now and 8:30 pm ET tomorrow ... but if you can't find your Erection again ... ;-)

Since your picks are right near the corners ... we could perhaps pause the Draft for a few minutes if your picks come up during that time frame ... we're already deferring 60 minutes for the new guy ... Andy ... so I don't see why we couldn't give you a few minutes extra if needed ...

Is the 6:00 to 6:30 PT (9:00 to 9:30 ET) time frame for travel or some such? I suggest ... if without objection of course ... you just say [b:4b31bc839e]"here goes my 30 minutes away"[/b:4b31bc839e] ... especially if you could do it ... time it ... right after one of your 2nd picks ... that way you might be back in time anyway after the 20 or so picks by others that would follow each of your 2nd picks ... follow?

Let's see what the Commish and others think, too... 8-) I just posted a note there asking folks to come over here and comment on these issues, too.

Best,
Jon

I'll have Blatz on ice all night. :wink:

Just got home not long ago and saw the posts. My fault! I thought I had everyone's opinion accounted for. I sent meat a PM to try and figure out how best to do this now. I don't want to burn a regular member! Does anybody have meats phone number? :? Last message I sent to Adrian about DD he said he noticed it was slow and he would check into it. That was before our last draft in which we had to abandon it again. I can't say for sure the problems have been resolved.

hey guys, if we need to go with the original draft time, it is fine with me....i will proxy or select my team from what is left
