Welcome to the league discussion thread. We have 3 people who have not signed up at drafttime and one who has not signed up at espn. If anyone needs the invites resent, please let me know. I guess the majority of people have been in a league that I was a commissioner for. |

It is.....
My goal is to set the order and open up drafttime tomorrow night and for the draft to "officially" start on Wednesday. Length of time per pick and when the clock should be paused each day is to be determinded, but I want to "mirror" the RIBC as close as possible.
If anyone has any concerns, questions, etc. , please post them here.

That sounds good. RIBC will be two days behind us, but that's good because this league will be much slower drafting than RIBC so we can use the extra time. At some point we may have to go to a shorter clock than RIBC but we can wait to see how that goes.

I will probably be interested in trading down from #5 overall if anyone wants to jump up to grab the guy they want. Im thinking we can swap 1s, 2s, and 4s. Email me if interested.

re: 41, Dodger Stadium effect?
I had a 2 palyer queue of Hamels and Gonzalez last night, set it and went to bed. I think I would have been happy with either one but I'm glad I have Hamels now.

Now that the draft clock has been added, we will need an overnight pause -- unless you want to have the drive clock running overnight and timing people out.

While I don't disagree with a clock, I will point out the unequal nature of it for those of us on the West Coast. Midnight to 8am for you is 9PM-5AM for me. I'm always up past 9 but never up before 5, so don't expect many early picks from me.

The only problem was the 1 time out. Sure we want quick picks, but if we are going to complain about someone not picking for 2 hrs on a 4 hr clock, why not make it a 2 hr clock. Then we can complain when the picks aren't made in under an hour. This is a "slow draft" and will have periods of delay as people deal with their own lives. Our current average of just over 1 hr/pick is pretty good.
|
| 61 | Andy
ID: 8102711
Mon, Mar 18, 2013, 18:53
|
And I use the word "problem" in my previous post loosely. The reason there is a clock is to keep the draft moving if an owner doesn't pick within the allotted time. That is exactly what happened. If you want picks made more quickly, try a live fast draft.

If you are at one end of a draft, it should be common courtesy to either hang around or have a queue so that you don't hang up the draft. Just sayin...

Mon, Mar 18, 2013, 19:35

The 1 time out was a really dumb one. he didn't even have to hang around. The two picks after him were on autodraft so he was up to pick again before he even closed his browser window.

I always thought it was a single clock for both picks.
|
| 72 | Jaydog
ID: 45633109
Thu, Mar 21, 2013, 13:09

Should we skip Robine's second pick? In drafts I've done in the past, once one pick was skipped, all future picks were skipped until the player logged in. It would be good to not have to wait for two full clocks.

as i understand it, its not just on the turns...if a person times out on one pick, all subsequent clocks get skipped until they check in and make up "missed picks"

I am giving him to 12:30 central to pick. If he does not, I am moving on and considering penalizing him for the rest of the draft.
|
| 76 | Andy
ID: 8102711
Thu, Mar 21, 2013, 13:21
|
I don't know that I agree with "penalizing" him for the rest of the draft. We have had 3 prior missed picks that were not penalized, so it would be unfair to do so now. However, if he has not made these 2 picks before his next turn comes up, then he gets skipped again.
|
| 77 | Andy
ID: 8102711
Thu, Mar 21, 2013, 13:24

i said "clocks"...meaning that they don't get a clock on subsequent picks until they make up the missed picks...effectively skipping their pick by skipping their clock
|
| 78 | wolfer
ID: 31224188
Thu, Mar 21, 2013, 13:28

Had to clairify. I thought it was a penalty of a shorter clock compaired to others.

Pick was skipped. He basically had 13 hrs to do both picks.
