Looking forward to it RJ.
I would like to suggest we use the 4 bench slots instead of the 3 bench and two IR slots. We used the 4 bench last year in this league and it worked very well. It is a lot less hassle and there is no difference if each team averages 1 injured player.

Yeah definitely going to opt for 4 bench. The process just seemed a lot easier from what Guru was saying.

Cool, looks like we are ahead of schedule. 7 people have already joined. The draft will begin on drafttime sometime during 10/10-10/17. They usually last ~7 days.

Draftime Info has been sent out. Wheels are in motion, we just need to set the draft order and we can get the ball rolling within the next couple weeks.

Was planning on starting the draft at 8am est on 10/13. Will have a clock starting after the second round is completed. It will be a 4 hour clock that will run from 8am to 12 am est. Queues are of course always encouraged. Does this work for people?

Works for me. I'll be out all day on the 16th but I'll try to set a queue for that day.

I am leaving the country the 15th early so if can get in as many as possible would be great. My clock may have to be adjusted on the 15th and I will not consistently have internet access for next 10 days. I will be silent for about 24 hours on the 15th. I will try to get someone to fill in if I can.

Is that the draft order or the order of picking our position?

Oh my bad guys that is for draft selection so addicted is up to pick where he wants to draft and so on.

Just take the lower numbered pick (some would call that the highest pick) for me too.
Probably going to delay the start of the draft as we don't have the draft order set yet. Aiming for the 16th with the same clock settings discussed earlier. This will allow the twolves to check in as well. Going to email Kyle.

Draft started. There is going to be no time limit for making picks until October 16th at 8am est, at which point we will be moving to clock settings mentioned earlier in the thread.

My apologies... I'm not sure why I'm not getting the reminder emails. I got them before for baseball but it hasn't kicked in here for basketball. I will pick now and try not to miss going forward.

3 time outs from 3 diff managers in two rounds? Very surprising at this level of competition.

Wanted to ask you guys about the clock over the weekend?
Here are the two options available: A. Keep the clock running the whole weekend with no pauses.
OR B. Pause the clock until Monday Morning at 8 am est
It doesn't matter to me either way so I'll put it up for vote. The polls will close tomorrow at 6 pm est to determine which option we go with.

ID: 474402717 Thu, Oct 17, 2013, 20:16
A. With mobile devices and the use of pick based queues it shouldn't be a problem.

Tosh Leader
ID: 057721710 Thu, Oct 17, 2013, 21:49
A - It's way too frustrating sitting around and wondering if somebody is going to pick.
41
Addicted
ID: 298112719 Thu, Oct 17, 2013, 22:18
A. with clock paused at Midnight (Unless waiting for people to pick puts me to sleep first)
--Addicted--
P.S. Starting Monday change clock to 2hrs
42
RJ
ID: 108441021 Thu, Oct 17, 2013, 22:29
The thing about the pause is that they don't let you set the clock for individual days the pause time has to start Friday night and ends Monday morning. I suppose I could manually pause it at midnight and then unfreeze it but just for consistency's sake I think option A is better.

A.
Also,The clock is not working properly it seems to me, draft still paused it says, yesterday was the same thing.

Yeah saw it, today seems better, yesterday it jumped from Pause to 1.30h left to make a pick.

I think there was time used before the pause yesterday.
Why wouldnt there clock pause during the night on the weekends? Guru posted on RIHC that theirs draft would run on the weekend but pause for the night.

If you set a daily pause, it is also operational on the weekends. (i.e., "daily" means "everyday", not "weekdays")
For the record, our league uses an overnight pause, but no weekend pause.

RJ
ID: 108441021 Fri, Oct 18, 2013, 14:42
Oh ok thanks for clarifying. I didn't know that the 12-8 pause would still work for weekends so we will go that route.

No opinion for me, do what you must to ensure we finish in time.

Just wondering about corresponding team names to draft names.
Amit Simha -> ? Rotten Amoebas ->? eserel -> pretty sure this is s R
Just double checking so I get it right when I put in the players.
58

pretty sure:
Amit Simha is WG Rotten Amoebas is mespero erserel is s R

Rosters input but the waiver priority is messed up. Will look into fixing this today.

My magical prediction machine has the season for you. Of course it likes my team, so there's probably a little bias in that.
