Sorry for not quoting and being late.

We last minute decided to go on a camping trip and was driving for 10 hours only to arrive and see the fridge popped open and a dozen eggs broke on floor.

Why was I skipped? I wasn’t picking Dwight but the clock started less than 2 hours ago and it was off when I was up? :-?

Your clock has started yesterday in 11:17 PM per my calculation

The dynamic in this case is pretty bad IMO.

Dr P was skipped (aka the person in front of me had not picked) and I was never quoted until after the clock had ended.

It obviously doesn’t matter because I didn’t need Dwight.

This game is kind of a rough one. One no-show in an already small game and more late/skipped picks than I can remember. I shouldn’t have been able to land Walton/Magic/PG.

I was worried about burning my other good non-team category so early but these teams are fairly deep too.

Larry said he was on a trip and I was sleeping, sorry. Always a good idea to check the times. I also quoted you 20 minutes before

Another potential takeaway is pick fast instead of using all your clock lol
