NLD 34 - Here we go again

The new draft system won't work for us unfortunately. Unless we are all brave enough to attempt a quick draft!

The Diamond Dope draft app is being eliminated, so our options are a bit thin.

Yeah. After I posted here, I read that the "leisurely" live draft option isn't available yet. I think it said that they are working on that as an option, to be introduced at a future date.

Hopefully, sooner rather than later!

So the only option is "real time" do they have proxies? I guess I need to check out the posts on the issue.

Guys, I play a lot of fantasy baseball, and we live draft all the time. At first glance, it would seem difficult to get 12 people across 8 time zones to agree on a time, BUT I'VE NEVER HAD A PROBLEM. If we work together we can actually have the league drafted in under 2 hours. I can see Jeep smiling already!

Who's up for it?

I'd prefer a quicker draft.

In theory, I'm good for it. The only problem is the timing. I do strat at weird hours, sometimes. Doing it for 2 hours could be rough, but if I can make it work, it would be great. So I'll say yes, and we'll see how it all works out timing wise.

This time of day could work for me - say between 5 and 7 ET.

Boy, I don't know if a totally live draft is going to work. I'd have to give it some thought. Do we have any other options?

Can't see doing a 20 round draft on the boards. Without proxy capabilities we'd take a month and a half.

Boy, I don't know if a totally live draft is going to work.

Joe, why? All we need to do is agree on a time one Saturday or Sunday in March. We have over 2 months to plan. I promise you, once we do this we'll never look back. Like I said, I do it all the time for fantasy baseball and football.

Do we have any other options?

Yes. A slow draft right here on the boards.

I like the idea of doing it during the day on a Saturday or Sunday.
