To keep the draft moving, I think we should prepare to skip OakAth. We haven't gotten any explanation for the lengthy delays. Jimmiejoe gave us advance notice of his scheduling conflict, and we should try to accommodate that to the extent possible.
One suggestion- we may want to flip the divisions so that jimmiejoe is in the east, and thus can load his team earlier. Does that work?
Jimmie Joe is already in the East. BTW, you need to go to another forum to see all the previous posts on this thread. Check the strat-o posts on top of the forums.
I will be out of town from 8/25-8/31 with spotty computer access. I'm well-proxied, though, and should be able to enter the East once the Diamond Dope draft is done. Moscratch has my e-mail address if there's an emergency.
With 2 people out next week, unless, by some miricle, this gets done today, I would think its a no go until Sept, if ever. Seems silly to continue draft without OakAt. If he can't draft, he can't load a team.
