I'll give vCash to the top 3 finishers once this is over.

5000 to 1th
2500 to 2rd
1000 to 3st

Someone just send me a PM to remind me when I need to give the payout.

Can we make a separate draft thread please? It will make it much easier to follow. The thread should be draft picks/analysis only, and I think we should make the picks in bold so it's easier to find the most recently drafted player(s).

Just my 2 cents let me know what ya think S&L.

I might be making my picks from my phone so bold might be out the question for my picks. Sorry.

Good ideas lhs, we'll use them. I remember I started a separate thread last year and it worked fairly well so we'll do that again. Are you saying that thread should have ONLY picks? And then maybe all opinions/analysis to stay on this thread? Or start 2 separate threads, one for the draft picks only and one for the analysis?

If someone can't bold it, just put it in all caps. If you can't do either, we'll quote it directly after in bold.

At first I meant picks AND analysis, but after thinking about it more, with 120 players getting drafted, I think it should be picks only so A. it's easier to see who's already been drafted. B. it's less pages for people using on their phones to deal with.

Plus, we know that since no thread can stay on topic on the OC, a separate analysis thread would probably be a better option (or keep analysis on this one, which is a good idea).

Create a new one just for PICKS and leave this one for opinions/analysis.

I am playing in a basketball league and my game starts at 6...should be over a little before 7. Hopefully it'll time out well to be around 7 when im up at the ninth pick.

ttocs we'll make an autopick for your first round if you're not there for it...soon as you get back, you can continue to pick. But we can't wait 30 minutes for ya..we're trying to get this done quickly.

S&L have you set a standard time limit between picks, before auto pick selects for the person?

I mean what do you guys think? I was thinking everyone would be on here paying attention so it shouldn't be an issue. But shit does happen where someone might have to step away for 10-15 min. I'd say maybe 10 min then we'll autopick? I'm not trying to be here all night lol
