Gotchya. Thanks for clearing that up.

The schedule was posted on page 1 for a while. I waited over 2 hours after the last pick, and more than an hour after the clock was supposed to start today. There was no pick on there, so I went. I am at work all day and wojn't have a chance to do some research for a new pick until this evening. Why should I another 10 (or 20) people go before I can pick again when I followed the rules that were posteD?

Do you need a LW? Take Ubriaco and I'll look up someone else.

The Draft Order was posted well in advance. The schedule was announced to be posted this morning (as it was).

The 1st page just listed everyone in order like the other rounds. So naturally, I assumed that it would be like every other round with a 1-hour limit instead of 2.

We started at 8am....like your post says....1 hour later...no pick, so I went.

Thus we've established again what happens when you assume.

Thou shalt not ignore posts made by thine Commish.

I followed the post...that says the draft will run from 8am to midnight. There was nothing that said any different until after 8am today.

Sorry SAK: I think you'll lose this one, but I had assumed a one hour increment as well, not knowing what was meant by "skip times" I guess. I was quite happy with the pace of what we were doing, and think that this new method will slow things down a bit, but I guess with the weekend and Canadian holiday (not sure about US), it is best to have assigned one hour increments.

If you want SAK, I can send you by email an excel file with all of the remaining players and their stats.

I have an Excel file...on my PC at home. I don't have time to go through it while I'm at work. I don't think I'll lose. I followed the directions that were given. Why is today starting at Noon when EVERY SINGLE OTHER DAY before and after started at 8am? If you wanted to change the schedule you should have posted it before 8am, since that's the directions that were given out to everyone.

I read what SAK read. I also read what evil_twin wrote.

I'm with Sak on this one. Your post about the schedule being posted in the morning was too cryptic. Nowhere did you mention you were changing the starting time. And draft leagues do not normally just switch starting time out of the blue.

Alert (SAKABAKBRG) is on the clock until Noon EDT.

Do you have time to go through it at lunch time? I'm sure ET would agree to a stall in the skip times to accommodate you, based on the confusion of the wording of the schedule.

Its unfortunate that the last pick was a proxy pick based on ET's assumption of the pick schedule, so it is unfair to that player to lose Hillman, so I don't think that its an option to award you Hillman. We're just trying to find a way to work through this in the fairest manner.
