Thaliontil, if you are ready to pick, go ahead.

Stun, you can make your pick at any time.

people just need to speed up or get skipped. we could trim the limit down to 6 hours and excluded the hours of 2am to 8am when nobody but our europeans and australians are on the board. so if the person in front of you picks at 10PM you have until 10am to pick. if the person in front of you picks at 8am you have until 2pm to make a pick. for the people who are stuck at work for 8 hours with no net access, you probably shouldnt have signed up for this... but you can always send walt a draft list. i think that is fair.


From an outsiders point of view, I think this is fair.
The reason I didn't sign up was because living on the opposite end of the planet, I wasn't sure I would be on here at the right times and would hold up the draft.

Yeah I live in Asia too,hard to keep up during midnights,I guess I'll post my decisions to someone and they'll pick it for me.

And BTW can we have draft picks trading next year?Don't worry it'd be easy.

For example,the guy who has the 1st pick would have:
1,24,25,48,49,72,73,96,97,120,121,144,145,168,169.

Would add a ton of fun.

Important:
I suggest drafter A who have almost-consecutive-picks to send their decisions to drafters who cannot take advantage from knowing his decisions(drafter B) if the former knows that he might not pick on time.

For example,Fats or Slam can know my decision with my upcoming pick since I'll pick before them and they can help me post my decision when Im not on board.It's like Lakers or Celtics will not benefit from knowing Minny's draft decisions since they are always so far away in draft positions. :D

This makes the game twice as fast,so do it.

No go... I considered him heavily to try and slot into that category, he has tats on his wrists.

nba.com says 6'7,so I guess the pick is invalidated?
