1981 Rich Gossage

Question: If the player I want to draft is from a 5-year range dipped already used, can I post that pick early?

It looks as if the clock may soon become relevant. We are currently 9 picks into Round 4 which has a schedule for 12/31.

As soon as the beginning of your time slot comes up you are free to make your pick even if there are unmade picks or uncorrected invalid picks ahead of you. However, you must wait until your time slot arrives to skip anyone. If we get caught up we can continue ahead of the clock, of course.

Also, feel free to send proxy picks if you think you may not be available when your time comes up. I will be available almost any time for these.

Example:
5:30pm pick.... gets skipped
6:00pm pick.... Makes his pick at 6:05pm.
6:30pm pick.... Let's say I'm that pick. Can I pick after the pick made at 6:05pm, at 6:10pm, or do I have to wait until 6:30pm?

Thanks

In this scenario, you would have to wait until 6:30

However....

In this draft there will be times when anyone who has a missed pick (or even those ahead of you until your time slot arrives) will already have filled the years in which you want to pick (ie everyone ahead of you and missing already has their 1885-1900 player). As in the legendary 16x16 draft, I am okay with picks like this being made ahead of time. It's probably a little early to be seeing much of this now but it may be a factor later on.

It is insane how much this draft bleeds the talent pool. Sometimes I check my list of potentials and have to scribble out a couple I thought were still in because while that year may be, nope...someone took the player in that range already. It is really ugly when combined with your own time losses.

I'm here for sitemails or proxies if needed.
