DRAFT EM ALL LEAGUE 4 (DEAL) DRAFT Topic

Wow, 7:23 am to 8 :45 am this morning 10 picks are made. That's awesome................and here it is 4 pm and 1 pick trickles in . This is what turn's many away from live drafting . Now before anyone get's on a high horse don't because I'm not signaling anyone out. I was busy myself on Monday and delayed the draft by 3 to 4 hours. In this case and that of today we are wasting each other's time if we are not allowed to have the draft move along. Give a team an hour or two max to get their pick in . Going off the clock kill's momentum regardless of what day you are on.

This is why I prefer just sticking to the time slots. Trying to get ahead of the clock invariably results in accordion action. There's something to be said for knowing when my time slot is, checking in then, and then returning to my day. It may not be speedy, but it's regular.

So does roadhouse's pick of Santana stand or what?
11/8/2016 4:55 PM
All the picks are in right? According to my list nobody has missed one so it should count and jbar is up next.

Sorry guys, I have been swamped today, meeting with realtors and trying to get out to vote and so on. I should be updating the draft on each page more than I am. Hopefully that will get better and more often the rest of the way.

As for being on or off the clock, it's very simple really....We are on the clock BUT we are ahead of it. Right now, the next SCHEDULED pick is SouthHeat at 2:30 pm Wednesday. Until then, everyone can pick in order as you have been doing. If NO ONE picked until 2:30 pm Wednesday, then we will be officially back on the time slot clock.

If somehow, EVERYONE made their Round 7 pick by say...midnihgt tonight (Tuesday) and Chisock made his 168th pick tonight, I would move up the draft so that Round 8 started on the clock on Wednesday, but I doubt that will happen. We will just stay ahead of the clock until the picks slow down and we "catch back up" to the original clock...which is how everything is labeled now. I'm guessing that is more along the lines of what will happen. Either way, does that make sense to everybody now?
