2021 Vote for Finals CAP/DH/Draft Order

If I am not mistaken, the "1 hour" draft lasted about 3 days last year. The key that makes this work is USE THE QUEUES. People don't or won't use them.

Here I thought I was just making a polite suggestion but judging from the reply it seems I've somehow managed to cause offense.

Incidentally my suggestion was based on what appears to have taken place last year, when the draft began untimed rather than wait on everyone to agree on a start date for a timed draft: viewtopic.php?p=5788165&sid=13aa2b82078092a289a749d6a6cb1a43#p5788165

No offense here. Hey Moose, I sent a message to Nevdully on Facebook to connect you two.

Good luck all!

Moose,

I just replied, I should be available most times/days. I just haven't done a live draft in years, so I need to go figure out the SOM Que mechanics.

I can be available anytime with the exception of Feb 24 to Feb 27... I am not opposed to 1 hour turns or less or even untimed to start. I have never done a live draft in SOM, but I assume it is like most live drafts in fantasy baseball. A tad bit nervous about that, but it should be very interesting.

I'm OLD, I just got my medicare card. How am I supposed to remember what we did last year. I can't remember what I did earlier this morning....... woe is me

Once everyone has joined the league we will revisit the timings. Got to review last years Finals thread.

Thanks Hack, re Nev. He has been sent a PM but as of now - still unopened.

ok what the hell, i need to de "grumpy old man" myself in my Golden Years.

I set the clock for off, set the start date to "THIS" Friday 6pm est assuming everyone has entered by then. I set it to Frenzy (after all we are live drafting 25 players) and I assume that I don't get any flack on THOSE changes.

Still looking for Nev and 4 others - I sent invites to them again.

Let's sit back and pound a cold one !!

Thanks again Moose. As I replied to the email, I am good for Friday night.
But I can't do any earlier except by proxy picks (which is OK if it has to be that for everyone else). I am steeped in preparing to brief a House committee this week, and I will be out of pocket on Thursday and Friday.

Friday evening no earlier than about 6 else I will be by proxy until then.

Cheers--and just to emphasize the appreciation for your steadfast commitment--thanks.

Frank
And OBTW--if I had to proxy that is ok. I ain't gonna bitch about being in the finals. It is a great group and I look forward to competing.

True dat. Whenever I am in a league and I see ANY of the names in this league, I think to myself, "Oh well, I guess I am not winning this one"--but nevertheless here I am. Looking forward to it as well.

And to echo Hack--Good Luck to all.
For those that haven't live-drafted in a while--it is much easier now with SOM's engine than what you may remember either from DD or Penngray's original hosted drafts I believe I recall. Which I think was partially the source for what we have now.

Anyways, it even has a mock draft function. I find it to be a decent UI, and I am picky about UIs.
