Should be interesting. I am likely to miss the draft and don't have time to prerank.

Ya, i didnt notice this draft was on draft peak day. I’m too busy working on those days to play. I guess i should bow out of the league if this is the new normal for drafts.

I think we can go back to drafting 'offline' or make sure the live draft is 2-3 weeks prior to start of the league

Next year, I'd vote for a slow draft here on RealGM. That was way more fun.

Slow draft on RealGM was a mess. People would miss their times and no one would know whose turn it was. No, if we do a slow draft, I'd go with another draft engine that would allow 8 hours per pick. We did that a few times, and it seemed to work fine (don't remember the name of the site).

I also think the fast draft is fine too, but I wasn't a fan of having it today either. We could change it to an earlier day so Floppy can join us next time.

Fantrax. I'm good with that too. Just helps while away the offseason if we can do this here :D

I for one made it in time. Happens only once per year, I am good finding time on Sunday, but I understand not everyone can say the same.
Maybe we could vote which date and time is best.

The draft time was preannounced weeks before. You don’t get to it on time, then you should have at least adjusted your prerankings. If not, then it shows you’re not just not to serious joining it anyway?

I would like for us to go back to a slow draft. It is much more fun with commenting and discussion of picks. Also we allowed for pick trading.

I was half-assing it. I was able to connect from the festival I was at but since I was at booth providing information, couldn't always pay attention.

G, can you please add Camara back to my roster? I dropped him by mistake instead of Springer, as I wanted to activate Eason of IL. I'm benching him anyway, snice it looks like Springer will have played an extra game on my roster, which wouldn't have happened if I dropped him (Springer) before the game.

Anyway, I hope no one has any objections.

Touch move.

























Kidding. This happens more often than not (especially if you have kids playing with your phone LOL). No objection from this end.

Done for only this time. Please be careful for the future add/drops

Hi Curtis, I’m trying to add a player from the waiver and it’s saying I can’t because Precious is on my IL. I’ve moved him off my IL for Sunday and it’s not letting me add a player. Can you move him to my bench for Saturday’s lineup so I can make an add for tomorrow?
Why the schlong face?
