I love live drafts.....but it can get frustrating sometimes I agree. I didn't mean to pick on BDWard but he made a pick at the 11th spot, the 12th spot made 2 quick proxy picks and he was gone :shock: I kept hitting F5 for like 20 min ! lol !

I'm no programmer....and this is a FAR CRY from the "old days" of board drafting - keeping manual money totals - copying / pasting all draft picks ad-nausea.

When penngray wrote his first draft software, I was in heaven. However, that was missing something then - and is STILL MISSING is a very simple piece. HAVE EVERYONE PUT AN E-MAIL IN THE SYSTEM AND HAVE AN E-MAIL NOTIFICATION SENT OUT WHEN IT"S YOUR TURN ! .....even if you proxy, who cares.

Anyway, this draft is not looking good for me. I seem to be drafting against the grain on what other type of teams are being built. ...normally I'd say that's a good thing but I'm not so sure with this crew.

Drafts use to be fun, but now there are so many players to chose from, it almost doesn't matter who u take, u can fix it afterwards.

I say this in the nicest way I can: "IF WE WAIT 3 HRS FOR YOU TO PICK, PLEASE HAVE THE COURTSEY STICK AROUND 3 SECONDS TO SEE IF YOU ARE UP AGAIN AFTER A ROUND OF PROXIES SHOOTS IT BACK TO YOU" :roll:

Good job Pot. Finally we are skipping people who don't give a rats *** about moving the draft along promptly.

Although now we are up to the three guys in a row who have been holding us up round after round. Although Macnole did use proxies earlier. Guess proxies are too hard to use at this critical :roll: late stage in the draft. :shock:

Did I ever mention that I loathe drafting on diamond dope?

Clock should have been off from whenever AM to 3 hours after, then 3 hours after that until I can skip Dins.

I'm told by Adrian that corner players cannot be skipped. This to me is a serious draft flaw. His answer to the problem ? You get what you pay for. :shock:
