It's actually at 6:00pm EST and 3:00pm PST

I've never bothered to change my time settings too.

The draft time works for me.

How do you figure out the draft order?

It's typically automatic and determined about a half hour before the draft, so I assume it'll be the same way this season.

As a commish though I'm also apparently able to set a randomized draft order once the league is filled and I set the draft mode to ready. Then everyone can see in advance where they'll be picking and draft accordingly. I might go with this option.

So now that we went from 10 player to 12 don't you think it should be 6 teams that go to the playoffs instead of 4?? I'd also like to make the suggestion of giving one IR spot if everyone else is cool with it??

That sounds good, but would everyone be okay with having a first round bye for the top seeds? I could make it a six team playoff for weeks 15-17 instead of the current four teams, weeks 15-16.

You can't have the playoffs through week 17 cause that would mean whoever is playing in the super bowl would be playing it in week 17 of the regular season and a lot of times teams sit their stars in that week to keep them healthy for the playoffs so if you have guys like P.Manning,T.Brady,D.Thomas and many others on your team then you'll be screwed for the super bowl.

Alright, good point, then it would have to be a 13 week season with a six team playoffs in weeks 14-16.

Anyone else get booted out of the draft room? I haven't been able to get back on, but it looks like I ended up drafting a kicker and a second defense. I'm screwed. :banghead:
