I just sent Dukie proxies for three rounds (if they last). I'll be out most of the day. I agree that at this point, an autodraft for the last few rounds would be just fine.

Autodraft, fast clock, either is fine for me.

2 hour clock today, 1 hour clock starting tomorrow, get as many rounds in as we can (ending with an even number of rounds) and then autodraft the rest as needed loading on Friday and starting Monday?

Hey guys,

Just wanted to say how much I've enjoyed this blast from the past, and restate my desire to do another just like this. I'm personally happy with the current parameters and not all that bothered about eliminating specific cards or strategies from consideration.

Cheers

It is super fun to work off a random set of players, makes you think a lot more during the draft. For that reason, I kind of liked the slow leisurely pace. Allowed more time to try to strategize.

Would you guys prefer to work at a leisurely pace? I am very willing to do it that way as well. Don't want people thinking i am being impatient here......I prefer leisurely......but know not everyone does. I remember being in live drafts on the TSN website and having people complain because people were taking most of their whole 45 seconds every pick.

We could be leisurely and have set draft times so those that want to could just check in during their appointed time. Apologize for the wishiwashiness but looking for input and just am not wild about skipping people.

Look forward to another of these sometime as well so would be interested in suggesdtions for the future.

Work is busy today so I will try to send proxies(still may have one or two left) but it is ok to skip me on my turn.

Sent pm to nels. If someone wants to pm people on their turn my suspicion is most are getting an e-mail of it and check in pretty quickly.

I don't mind leisurely for the first dozen or so rounds, but I also think things have gotten way TOO leisurely for these last few rounds. It becomes borderline annoying and ridiculous when you're waiting to draft a .50 scrub, check in more than a dozen times a day, and no one has bothered to make their pick. I personally think it's time to go to autodraft for the last few rounds, and let's get on with the season.

I'm with Tom - I'd say we close out this round and the next (so everyone has a chance to draft a stadium) with a 30 minute clock so we can be wrapped up by tomorrow and loading. My interest is starting to drift a little bit as these late rounds drag forever.
