Make me an offer.

I know you have been shopping this pick around, but please let us know something. Is something in the works or are you not going to even pick until after Thanksgiving?

I'm 75% confident that I will trade the pick.

Cool, just wanted some communication that you were active on either front. Thanks for letting us know.

Should we be expecting a decision today? 31 owners are patiently waiting...

This may be historic -- we're at 80 hours and counting for one pick.

I don't really get starting the draft with no time limit. If there's no time limit, it really hasn't started and we shouldn't be waiting for each pick with baited breath.

If we are going to start the draft, turn the clock on. If there's no clock, let's not expect picks until the clock is actually turned on.

I'm conflicted as to whether I should be tuning in or not. The obvious answer is yes and no. I feel like I am at work.

Made a change to the draft, we will start this friday with time limits.

Sorry for the delay, but I really wanted to trade the pick and give a few owners the opportunity to negotiate for it.

I have absolutely no problem with this, the only issue was the lack of communication that left us wondering.

I have a MASSIVE problem with this though. If you post a schedule and people can make plans for days using said schedule to then later change that schedule in this way is worse than not posting a schedule in the first place. This is a horrible decision and an overreaction to a slower than expected start to the slow roll.

If you want the slow roll to go faster without screwing owners over by pushing the schedule forward, adjust the GM options on the draft screen to allow for a longer than 30 minute wait before an autopick. If there was a 6 hour or 8 hour option to wait before an autopick, I would have mine turned on right now. I would love to make my own pick, but during this season, I can't be sure of that and I don't want to hold it up too long without any communication. If I can't make it to the PC during a 6 or 8 hour window, then so be it, I would let it pick from my list. Others would likely do the same, maybe even with a lower limit. But that way, you could see if the autopick was on and how long of a wait you might have and not break the promise the original schedule made.

I'm going to change it back to nov 30th, sorry for the confusion. I'm just frustrated and I overreacted earlier, trying to fix a slow draft by changing the schedule will not work. sorry guys..

Thank you very much. If you could put in higher time limits for the Autopick option, I bet you will see it get used more over the break.

The highest amount I can change it to is 30 minutes. Good idea though.
