The remaining owner has opened my most recent sitemail. If he's not in tonight, I'll send another reminder in the morning and go from there.

For those that are new to Scattergories, we don't go on the clock until after 1st round results are posted. The timings typically look like this:

2nd Round - ballots are due in 72 hrs (from the time the results of previous round are posted)
3rd Round - 72 hrs
4th Round - 48 hrs
5th Round - 48 hrs
6th Round - 24 hrs

missed deadline = no slots too bad?

Yep. If an owner misses the deadline, we move on and he gets no players that round. I think this is either my 5th or 6th season running Scattergories and there have only been two (maybe 3?) instances where this has happened. Both were in later rounds so it didn't have a big effect. Now, if an owner takes an 0-fer in the 1st round and then is running late in the 2nd round, I think it's best for the league to give him more time.

If this one owner doesn’t submit, does he get replaced or does he just get no players?
