Six picks in the last 24 hours. At this rate we will finish sometime in mid July... Does anyone know if Gbrookes is okay? I certainly hope so.... I am going to have to be away from my computer for a few hours this afternoon and this evening but I will check in when possible...

I hope everything is okay with Geoff...

While we wait here is an excerpt from the poem " Escape From The Killing Fields" by Nobel Laureate poet, Tracy Lauren Marrow



It's night
They might not see us
Cuse if they catch us out there
They'll bleed us
Shoot us, kill us
Dump us in a dark ditch
Clean it up, call it a gang hit.

Perhaps we want to shift from 10 or 12 rounds to maybeeeeeee..... four? :D happy to do as many or as few as the masses wish, I'm in no rush, but looking forward to getting the finals started.

Yes, by all means. I just can't keep doing this with life -- wish my mind could silo things off as well as apparently some of you can but difficult to form and keep a strategy for drafting when its as big of a cluster as this. Talk about the mystery tournament losing its credibility and appeal -- 46 hours waiting on one guy ridiculous to say the least and nothing personal against him, its the system that's whack. I'm thinking we should contact strat and let em know we're at a standstill and see what they think.

Now you understand why I voted for 10 rounds. I’ve done a lot of live drafts...

Live draft? Umm, I think more closely resembles draft by mail. Yes, I second four rounds or a revote on how we do the draft or just fuckin forgetting the whole thing and coming back a few years later when strat has caught up with the 21st century and has a live draft system. sorry to say but I'm done checking this fuckin board every hour or so and will see you guys tomorrow - hopefully we have movement by then. It was fun but this took all of the enjoyment out of It and how can someone consider themselves a champion of anything when the "live draft" is a clusterfuck with one guy getting 24 hours in between picks while another gets 21 minutes? We've lost any semblance of fairness or equality already.
On the positive side, football doesn't seem so bad now.

You guys who are slowing up the draft need to communicate with us. Ex. I will be unavailable until 7 AM tomorrow. Or, I check in twice a day around 7 am and 10 PM.

Geoff is a stand up guy for the tournament for years. I have a bad feeling that life got in the way for him. Let’s chill a little here...the draft has run reasonably well until this point.

I just saw that I'm up - if someone can shoot me a PM when I'm three picks away I'll be quicker on the draw. PM's sent to me go to my work email, which I check regularly. Sorry - Should be faster during week days.

I'll make my pick in a moment
