I will be out for most of the day today. I've filled proxies that should go for the day, but if I get excessively weaseled, I apologize for the delay.

IIRC, the off hours are from 10 PM to 8 AM Eastern Time, and then from Friday night 10 PM to Mon 8 AM for the weekend.
It will be pretty close to that, plus or minus an hour.
How do people feel about their draft so far. I got a little carried away with the first 4 choices, need to balance the budget a little bit.
I'll be in and out but have numerous proxies loaded.

We've made it most of the way thru Round 8 as of 3:45 PM ET ... turned my Proxies off mid-day to make an evaluation, but couldn't gauge when my turn would pop up as one of us keeps not setting Proxies while the rest of us are ... sigh.
I hope he'll join the rest of us and set some in the later Rounds. Overall, good progress so far, Moose.

Half way thru Round 11 at 8 PM ET
by Muadib1950 » Tue Aug 09, 2011 7:26 pm
We're stuck on a guy who's had lots of Proxies -- he either ran out, or turned them off for a bit. Heck I'm outta Proxies too ... gotta set some more this evening.
Still lookin' finger lickin' good ... 8-) ... despite the stickifying of things a bit here and there.
It's Joint Pretrial Statement Night at the OK Corral ... and I am NOT happy so many things didn't get done ... until today ... you know ... like they've had oh ... ALL YEAR or some such ... ACK ...

Easy there Hoss. It's NIGHT TIME ... Clock is OFF ...
And ... the guy who's not setting Proxies is not running over 3 his hours ... he's just taking advantage of those of us who are setting Proxies ... I'm just griping a bit ... if we were all doing what he is doing, we'd be bogged down ... hence my hope he'll set Proxies during the later rounds. You know ... 20 or so picks go in less than 5 minutes after he finally picks ... right back around to the same guy who just took 2 hours ... and he does it again ... huge chunks of time ... saving grace ... he's also a great player ... and I hope a good guy too ... and everyone else is moving it along ... so ...
No need to be crackin' whips ... yet ... 8-)
Best,
Jon

Hmmmm. So who could we be waiting for this morning? eh Jon? :wink:
Actually, this draft has moved along pretty well. Just need to finish it up today and get the league loaded. :)

Correct. I shut it down last night because (1) someone got passed over in the late night zone who had set lots and lots of Proxies (appearing to have run out of them), which had REALLY helped keep the Draft moving along smartly, (2) I was in a position to minimize the damage to him, and (3) I had run out of Proxies myself and had no opportunity to be on the site due to my colleagues at the office doing ALL their work ... ahem ... at the last minute ... instead of over the last few days and weeks ... for a Pretrial Report the Judge ... granting an extension to both sides ... had mandated was due yesterday (finally filed by opp. counsel DC Atty Gen. at the literal stroke of midnight last night).
Unbelievably, I had 4 MANUAL PICKS to make just now as ALL OF YOU (congrats) set Proxies and kept flushing the Picks back my way!!
Great going! We are half way thru Round 14 at this writing at 11:00 AM ET -- CHECK THAT ... we are back to [b:ec3e7a0982]gkhd11a[/b:ec3e7a0982] at the end of Round 14 as of about 11:10 AM ET!! Caimrisek just made a manual pick in only 14 minutes ...
Again ... GREAT JOB guys! Remember ... [b:ec3e7a0982][color=red:ec3e7a0982]you GOTTA SELECT A STADIUM [/color:ec3e7a0982]with one of your remaining Picks if you haven't already ... in a stadium group not used yet or the Moose will dock ya 25 wins. Let's roll ... [/b:ec3e7a0982]
