[b:064b7cc0f7][size=18:064b7cc0f7]OK guys, the draft has officially started and the [i:064b7cc0f7]six hour clock has been turned on[/i:064b7cc0f7] please set your proxies and have them on if you will be unable to check-in. Since we are in Round Seven, I would like to have the draft completed by next Wednesday evening so we can get all teams entered into the league by Thursday evening providing us with an opportunity to have an early Friday Frenzzzzzzzzy

Again remember the cap is 110MM for this Season 40 of LA-Z-BOY

Also remember to choose a stadium during your 15 draft picks....it will be first come first served after Round Ten.

Happy Hunting

[size=18:11098ea368]OK Gents, since we are moving right along[b:11098ea368] if you do not pick a stadium in Rounds 13 or 14, then Round 15 will be the stadium Round (make sure you do not have any players that can be selected for Round 15 if you decide to wait.)[/b:11098ea368]

Thanks Guys[/size:11098ea368]

So no particular order when it comes to picking parks?

Jon there has been no separate stadium order the last few seasons as we did away with the separate lottery draw. I have posted, in this Chat Thread, that a Stadium could be taken on a first come, first served basis after Round 10. This was implemented because all stadiums are listed on diamonddope. Also this does away with is a separate stadium draft here.

I have also posted in this thread that if a stadium selection has not been made prior to Round 15 your proxy list on diamonddope has to be cleared of all players so only a Stadium selection can be made. All that we're doing is streamlining the process a little more using diamonddope, but you're right it may be confusing to some of our long time managers who are very much in tune with our original LA-Z-BOY rules. We're evolving to make things as easy as possible for everyone.[/size:17078aa287]

[size=18:b74d3db90e]As our draft draws to a close way ahead of schedule is there any sentiment to load the league sooner and frenzy at a predetermined time like Tuesday?, Wednesday Evening?, Thursday?, otherwise Friday by rule. Doing the draft early would give everyone more time to massage their teams after the draft instead of waiting. Just wondering since we do have time on our side this season.

Dave is out for the afternoon, probably not home until after 5:00 PM ET so enjoy the afternoon.

[Simon31]

Back! Aaaand made my pick! Moving onward! :D

[joeoc]

OK the sentiment is to frenzy earlier than later, while tonight may be a bit ambitious, since I'm sure some have plans, but tomorrow night (Sunday) is a possibility if we can get the East Division to start loading their teams. I won't rule out tonight but not likely. :)

We gave the Saturday Frenzy a try but it looks like Jon and Darrell are unavailable today.....Jon still has to finish the draft. So we will frenzy as soon as we can get everyone to enter the league. Again this was a blitz effort without any prior planning so failure was the most likely outcome. :cry: :wink:
