RULE CHANGE PROPOSAL:

Currently, there is no clock on round 1 of the FA, Prospect, and Supp drafts.

My proposal is to eliminate the "no clock" on round 1 of the Prospect draft, but maintain it for the FA and Supps.

The rationale is simple: We are already going to be in full swing on the FA, seems like no need to pause on the Prospect Draft when we can just seamlessly continue the drafting and get it wrapped up. I know that we have owners who have a LOT of leagues they are in, so getting a draft done allows owners to focus on their other teams and drafts. This will still allow the more casual pace of the first round in the FA and Prospect.

As a sidenote, I'm happy as Commissioner to start the prospect draft clock on the day following the last pick, in the case where we have maybe 2-3 owners finishing up a draft and less eyes on the boards, with an email reminding the league that the clock will start the next day (but if people are ready, clearly they can start at that point.

Please vote below, 2/3 needed for passage. A "Yes" vote eliminates the "no clock" on round one of the prospect draft only, allowing the prospect draft to continue directly after the FA draft.

This is how I would have voted anyway and would have been the tie breaker. I try and stay away from voting on rule changes.

I will rap this up so we can move on. I don't usually vote on these matters but since it only needed 1 more it will no longer die the slow death that the release of the new cards is. Don't count on me to vote on rule changes I am almost always against them.

Not sure why, but the vote has failed.

Hope that cards drop soon.
