When we finish the 10th round and the clock goes to 1 hour here is what the rules will be (Turtle- if any of this is not right change it):

Clock will start in the morning at 10 AM EST, the first owner up will have until 11 EST to pick. The dd clock actually turns on at 9 EST, but we start at 10- 6 AM would be too early for the west coast owners.

The clock shuts off at 10 PM EST, do not skip anyone unless their time started before 9 PM EST. I think the dd clock actually shuts off at midnight, ignore that.

If everyone is caught up you can pick anytime, 24 hrs/day. Proxy's do not fire if the person in front of you does not pick, so there should be no reason to turn proxy's off. Yes, if someone wrongly skips someone then everyone else's proxy's after that will fire, but we'll have to live with that. If you have proxy's on and the person in front of you goes over their time limit your proxy will not fire, so even if you have proxy's on check in whenever possible (without neglecting wife, kids, pets, job).

And just like that we are up to superfly. Superfly, hope you are staying in, I think the draft will move along quicker now. However we need to have a final decision from you soon so we can find someone else if you are not staying.

I'm turning my proxy off, so draft will stop at me if Superfly gets skipped. I hate to stop it but we need to know ASAP if he is quitting so we can get a replacement. Will be harder to find a replacement if we skip one or more of his picks.

Weren't there a couple people named earlier in this thread or the first league thread that were eager to replace anyone?

I hope it doesn't come to that.

I am aware of the superfly situation and will not pick until so advised here on the bb (unless superfly picks and my proxy fires). Please do nut skip me until this gets resolved; I will check in frequently

I don't think you'll have too much trouble finding a replacement for that roster in a keeper league. But we should wait - people say things when they're ticked off that they later want to back down from gracefully.

My players aren't going to be that great until the cards for the 2011 season are printed. So, I can wait as long as anybody. Next year, you will all shreek in fear of my team. :D

I surely won't shriek, anyway.

It looks like mbertolli picked early, creating the apollo skip. Not sure of a way to fix that without turning the clock off manually every night.

As far as I'm concerned, it's fine... I will just keep proxies turned on overnight from now on to keep it from happening again.

Apparently Superfly is staying in, I will pick in about 10 minutes.
