12 Team 2 Hour Live Draft - Need your input

PostFri Aug 16, 2019 8:35 pm

League: August One Hour Live Draft

Draft is scheduled to start Friday night, August 23. No clock on weekend, but we should get a few rounds in anyway since you can still pick when the clock is off. This way, nobody gets timed out on their first round pick.

This is a great way to prepare yourself for getting into the high cap live drafts. And the slow pace allows plenty of opportunities for trash talk.

Looked like this wasn't going to fill by Friday , so I changed the start of draft to Monday morning.

Changed start of draft to Thursday evening. I will continue to push out the start day until we get filled. Need 9 at this point, so I didn't think we would fill by Monday morning.

Looking for input to fill this league. Keep clock running on weekends? Different start day?

As an FYI, Barnstormers live draft with one hour time limit finished in 23 hours.

I changed it to TWO hour time slots, and a Friday evening start time. Only a handful of picks will be times on Friday. No clock overnight or on weekends. Come join!

Was that 23 hours total, or 23 "while the clock was running" hours? It doesn't seem possible, and kind of defeats the intent of a slow draft.
