EVENT 3 / LEAGUE 6 - Draft in progress...

[CHRISMORRIS]

jerry must be on pacific time. :?

[Assmeriten]

It is now 9:20 PM CST and he is still not in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Even now I think this is BULL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :x :evil:

What do we do if he doesn't load tonight????????? :roll:

[CHRISMORRIS]

The time cutoff is 11:59PM EST, so jerry has just over an hour left. If for some reason the team doesn't get in tonight, we end up waiting another week to start. It's things like this that can take the fun out of this game. There is absolutely no reason that we should be sitting around wondering if jerry will manage to get his team in tonight. 11 other managers managed to enter their team in a timely manner only to be held up by number 12. I wish I could say this is the first time this has happened to me during the Tour but it's not.

[Assmeriten]

Yet another reason to eliminate the live draft from the tour unless the live draft is 26 rounds. :x

[CHRISMORRIS]

It took 24 hours from the time the league was created to get 11 teams loaded. The 12th team has had 48 hours and still isn't in. :roll:

[Assmeriten]

It is now 11 PM CST and he still isn't in. :x Wonder if there any penalty that get imposed on him?

Well, we didn't make the deadline so we'll have to wait another week before the league starts.

From my point of view, it is slightly disappointing but I'm sure durantjetty had a good reason why he wasn't able to get his team in on time. Let's give him the benefit of the doubt.

I'm not feeling good about my team. This was the first live draft I ever did and the time difference certainly was a big disadvantage. Also not feeling good about playing in a league without the DH. Another first for me. So, I don't have high hopes for this team.

Hopefully, durantjerry gets his team in soon and then we'll have plenty of time to 'tinker'.

Is there a waiver draft? or is it a 'frenzy'?

[Zimharry]

Hopefully, everything is all right with D'jerry............I'm obviously let down after the anticipation, but, in a way, I'm kind of glad we will have more time (hopefully!) to mess with our teams after the autodraft and mini frenzy........

[Assmeriten]

It is weighted waivers.

[durantjerry]

I'm sorry for letting you guys down. I would have bet the house on my getting my team in when the day started. I guess it was inevitable, but my new female boss finally fired me after lunch on Friday. Instead of heading home I ended up in a drinking establishment drowning my sorrows and figuring my next move. Mostly drowning my sorrows. Again, my apologies. Not the best of excuses, but I guess it's not the worst either.
