Personally, I think if we just say. 1 hour for your pick no if and or buts about it, we'll be fine, but WigNosy brought up a good plan as well./

Either way, it's long past due to sim Tray's pick. He even asked for it to be simmed.

2 hour time limit until the draft is finished. That's what id like. The creation draft is the most important part of league startup. Screw this up and we screw up the league for many seasons to come. Painful as a draft is to see to completion its the best options, most healthy option, for the league. Any new league for that matter. Most important for what? In 3 seasons when all these players are Free Agents the rosters will be way different. I don't think it's that big of a deal for the league. For your personal team sure, but not really. All these guys we are drafting now are on 1 year contracts.... So if you don't get your guy, get them in FA. 2 hour time limit for the rest of the draft isn't possible. IF we go with a 14 hour draft period of being timed, that's only 7 picks minimum a day. I'd rather go 1 hour, and guarantee we at least get 14(most likely 28) a day.

I'm getting a computer assigned player here right?
I think someone mentioned football slowing this down this weekend. There has been a lot of football on in 36 hours and there haven't been a lot of picks because of it. I have been talking to commish all week about my "list" for these picks in case we got to me and I couldn't make the pick. I have been traveling for the last four hours and looks like the picks in front of me happened rather quickly since Eazy's last pick this morning.
Everyone settle down. We'll be back to killing time soon enough. I think the reason picks weren't simmed after the time limit is because people were busy the last two days.
I've made all of my picks within 20 minutes of my pick before this round, so anyone directing complaints at me can suck it.

Honestly, I really don't care how slow the weekend went due to football and guys having other plans. I made my pick at 1am last night, but I watched a ton of football this weekend too so I was cool with a slow weekend.

It's been my responsibility as a proponent for the new league to really handle being active when it's required. I did send in a list but we would have been moving along quicker had I not moved into Saints mode instead of making my 5-10 guy list. This really is on me. Regardless of whether or not the admins have a blueprint for my simmed pick or not. My bad guys. Lets all have a group hug and get on with this draft thing.

I think Sound mentioned that this is why Commish never was around or talked to anyone. This IS EXACTLY why guys. You all have different opinions and ideas. We CAN'T do them all. I'm trying here. And I know most of you realize that. But remarks like kb made will get you booted quick and I'm not even joking. That shit is disrespectful and out of line. I am not going to spend so much time on this to be disrespected. Your the new guy and you have NO clout nor do you know me in any way. We joke around and whatnot, but don't ever question me like that again. I'm doing my absolute fucking best.

Don't apologize man. These things happen. You aren't the reason the shit hit the fan. Someone else decided to throw the shit into the air.

This draft is important to any team aiming to win right now. For those of you who have picked younger players it doesn't make this season less important. Just less important to you. If I had known my team was going to be torpedoed with auto picks maybe I don't pick bird. ..

I appreciate the words though. This is a lot but I am enjoying it. I wouldn't have wanted to if I didnt enjoy it. But I would like to still BS with you guys on the forums without being attacked...lol Like I said I know everyone from PR is good. None of this was directed at you guys and you know that. But thanks again.

For those of you who have picked younger players it doesn't make this season less important. Just less important to you. If I had known my team was going to be torpedoed with auto picks maybe I don't pick bird. .. Which picks were auto picked for you? NO ONE IS AUTO-Picking anything if you are available in the ample amount of time that will be given for one pick or have a list sent in. If anything is going to be done, it will still give you plenty time to get a pick in. I will personally make sure of that. Our definition of plenty of time may differ a bit but it will be more than 25 minutes. I still think some people took my "sim my picks" suggestion earlier the wrong way. I don't want any picks simmed. I want people to be able to make every one of their picks without holding up the entire league. I was just speaking out of frustration because I have gone cross-eyed trying to nitpick every little grade on this index. Sorry. If I say sim my pick, I mean just mine and no one else's. and Tray, no need for you to apologize for anything. It sounds like you took the appropriate steps.

If it's my pick during the day tomorrow 7:30-4:30, then feel free to autosim for me. I don't get a chance to check email/sim league during the day now that I'm going back to work. Just give me BPA according to the index.

Today was a household chore day. Mowed the yard, cleaned office, and watched the saints game. Not surprised by lack of picks being that most of us are online when we're bored at work.
