Asia and Oceania are merged into one category.


We are 9 right now. For transparency purposes, someone please run the lottery for me. We'll then be good to go. If a 10th participant wants to join, we can assign him a random spot after the lottery.

Cool, we are 10 now! I think 10 participants are more than enough. It's a relatively thin talent pool.

We are good to go. Just waiting for Larry to run the lotto (or anybody for that matter).

Was wondering about the 80s to now period until I realised we could only pick one American.

There are also some relevant internationals from the eighties.

Clarification request: if we select a player that has two nationalities, we are allowed to select which one we want them to count for.

Are we still allowed to choose players that come from the other nation?

tomorrow I will be travelling and I will wake up the 4 am, that's like 10pm ET.
Can you wait for me, if my turn somehow arrives sooner?
At this stage I can't make a list so long.

The clock doesn't start until tomorrow morning so you're fine either way.

Top of the draft has gone nothing like I expected. Though I would be the only one to not go USA first pick.

It was hard not to, but screw it, Nash is fun.

With 40+ years of Americans to choose from, you pretty much have to take an MVP-level international player if one is available.

I edited the OP in the draft thread. The clock will begin at 9 am EST, Friday. That's 3 pm for you on Friday. Hope it's plenty of time. If not, let us know. I'm sure we can work something out.
