League 1 only has 3 picks made so far. This is going to take forever. I'm already tired of checking in all the time to see no progress made. Good thing I don't have a life!

Can’t force people to be considerate

24+ hours between picks does seem a bit excessive. Today’s a holiday, right? So should see some movement? ~~ hoping ~~

It could be an emergency. Or that he doesn't know the draft started. But otherwise I think owners should minimally check 2-3 times a day, especially if their turn is coming up

I think some people are not aware that this is going on at this moment. I'm pinging them in leagues that I've seen them in. It was able to dislodge one person. Hopefully, for others. I'd do the same if I were you and try to be patient.

Once we get their attention once, they'll start checking regularly.

I think between the hours of 10am-7pm eastern there should be a 2 hour timer. If you go over the next team can pick and you can pick whenever you return.

Like that idea a lot. Might quibble with the hours, maybe 12-9 pm EST

That might be tough for stevep, the guy in Australia. Though he fell just outside the top 36 this year. Not sure if others are also around the world. Still, something will need to change next year.

League 2 is moving. But I certainly feel for the other two leagues. As I mentioned before, today is a holiday a lot of places, and maybe people used it to get out of town and take a long weekend or something?

One "proposed" change would be that when people check in, we set a "start" time for draft, maybe a couple of days out? I agree with the earlier comment about the final league ending Saturday and then draft takes a LOooooooooooong time!

Maybe in "advance" in the rules, they say "Semi Finals draft will start x number of days after the last league finishes"? Or even 1 week, or maybe the "first Monday after last league finishes," etc.

Just a thought. Free advice, so you get what you pay for

Well in hindsight we should have just done an Auto Draft. I think 36 people is too many cats to herd.
