I'll go with the current Baltimore Orioles franchise then...

John Lowenstein
Bob Milacki

Can we move forward if previous two owners don't show??

By the way, I won't need proxy notice I previously sent. Church ended faster than I thought.

I'm sure you have to stay in your time slot unless everyone in front of you has picked already. Unless you are picking from a Franchise they have already used, then you can skip 'em.

First of all, once your time slot arrives you are welcome to make your picks. You are up at 1pm so in 52 minutes you can pick if one or both owners ahead of you have not picked. Of course, if they both pick before then you can pick as soon as that happens.

I am pretty sure the picking is based on meeting the time placed before their name. I think we have already bypassed fatboydad54 on a couple of occasions. Either way, it does not matter to me, I can pick, or I can wait.

Concerning skipping ahead, this draft is different than some. Consider the example of Frank Robinson. You cannot necessarily skip ahead and take him as a Red if the owner ahead of you has already taken the Reds. That owner may also be open to the Orioles. There have been instances where skipping ahead has been okay, if the taken players only have WIS eligible seasons for that particular season (Pirates - Clemente, Leever, Robitalle example)

I am with you. Only problem is one of the owners has an open spot to draft players from the same team I want to draft from. Should just wait the 52 minutes and if both owners have not chosen, the pick the team and players I want??

Yes. If you have to leave before 1pm Eastern, I will be around to take a proxy. I did not open the one you sent earlier

Thanks. I will be here at 1PM and after so the proxy is no longer needed. Appreciate the explanations you have provided. Not trying to cause a hard time, but only to understand the rules of the game.

Is 1PM central standard time which I am on or are basing the time on eastern or other time zone??

Everything is eastern time

Again, with apologies to FBD

Rockies (Wildcard)
Troy Tulowitzki
Mike DeJean

Can I Make my selection now or wait the 13 remaining minutes. njbigwig did not choose the franchise I want so I should be good to go.
