That's BS you booted me. I have been looking at the thread pretty regularly and when I looked recently it still needed three people and it has been in "waiting for three people limbo" for a quite while. Dave just shot me a message last night but I had an emergency and had to go out and I looked early this morning and I'm gone from the draft? I was the second person to sign up and have been waiting about a month for the league to fill. You know I'm always around. How about a little grown up patience instead of acting like a bunch of kids that can't wait until morning to open their Xmas presents.

Sorry guys, I had my proxies set as soon as the draft was set up on the Dope site and went to bed around 11PM so I didn't know we had created a new league.

My pick is made now.

I am just glad you made my pick easier by taking one of my two possibilities!

[quote:40ce5a9fb7="oldmansmith2"]Unfortunately I am unavailable till mid afternoon today. This will be the only time I will hold up the draft and will do proxies if something unexpected comes up in the future. Should be back around 2:30 eastern.[/quote:40ce5a9fb7]

Thanks for posting this earlier, it makes the wait a lot easier knowing there is an end-game.

jerry, your reputation preceeds you...it seemed like the same old story. if you could respond to dave's message, you could have left one here, or told him.

oldmansmith up, I sent him an email. we'll see if any of my six proxies make it me at 8. so far im 4 for 4...

If my reputation preceeds me, just let me know beforehand if I'm not wanted. More than happy to bow out if I'm not wanted, as it seems I am not.

Heading in to City for some client schmoozing at Lin-Sanity versus Superman. Will leave a few proxies but it is hard to proxy 6-7 FIRST picks.

I left about 14 proxies. If it gets back to me at 15th pick and I have no proxies left, I would appreciate it if I wasn't skipped (since I left all these proxies so we can get started). I will be able to check back in late 2nite. TX

Intersting to note (hope it works):

I proxied player X as my first pick. Players z and Y are next best at X position BUT I wouldn't want Y or Z as my first overall pick.

SO, I proxied X at round 1 group 1 pick 1. THEN proxied player X in group 3 pick 1 with Y and Z following X in group 3 HOPING that if X gets picked earlier by someone else, Y or Z will get picked but further down the road (after group 2 satisfied). Yes, I checked the box so that i wouldn't end up with more than ONE of X, Y and Z. Jinx.
