'Official' draft discussion (Round 2)

[HammeringJohnson]

what a drag. i thought we had an good chance to be in the middle of round 3.

[roadrash]

Wow, 5 people in a row set preference lists, that was sweet.

Looks like I jinxed that.

I blame you

Next time when picks are moving smooth, i'm shutting my mouth

[dberner30]

Such hostility. No point being made. I was out all afternoon and you bastards flew through the round. Had to give a speech and do some other client development stuff. Life getting in the way.

BTW When I rolled out around 1130 CST we were on the 1st pick in the round and at 5:30 CST on pick 26. Thats progress and I apologize for slowing us down.

[dberner30]

wasn't dberner the one who didn't seem real thrilled about a warroom in the first place?

Maybe he's making a point or something...

Just stirring up trouble :evil:

He has already got enough trouble. He has cap problems, a depleting talent pool, and it's Outlaw Hunting Season in Iowa.

Nice try pig ranchers. We own your bitch asses. Only hunting going on is hunting for real talent on the roadkill roster.
:shock:

only a joke... got to stir the shit a little when I get bored...

Feel free to be the first one to give Kcin a hard time...

[Argot]

Is it just me or is three hours to pick too much time...really encourages people to not use the utility.

...and frustrate the rest of us... :x

I disagree with your point. In one afternoon 20+ picks rolled by. Having the time gives you flexibility to do some deals as the draft rolls along. Otherwise it might as well be live. I have used the utilities that are out there and will continue to do so. NOTE: After I traded down yesterday evening I loaded my list and the utility made my 1st rd pick.

Relax and enjoy our draft. This is the fun time. Make deals. Move around etc. Dont go so fast it isnt enjoyable.

The second round has taken longer than the first round :scratchhead:

The second round has taken longer than the first round :scratchhead:

and we negotiated a swap of three firsts and a second for about an hour

[Suicane]

I'll be honest, I wasn't sure we would do very good with the draft, and i'm so happy that I was wrong. This league is really becoming a top notch league with quality and measureable owner participation. I think a round a day is really a very good pace, especially with all the trading and stuff going on, it's quite a thing. That being said, I miss whealing and dealing :cry:

This is a great league...

FYI - the league that Burlington quit over just folded.

[Warhammer]

The second round has taken longer than the first round :scratchhead:

I think more people knew what they wanted with their first pick. The 2nd round took longer because you need to see what positions are having runs on them, etc.

[MrBigglesworth]

My clock says 9:53, and kcin hasn't logged on yet.

I'm really impressed. This is the first pick that has gone over the time limit, our last SFL draft had a ton of skipped picks.
