I mean I say tonight if someone doesn't post in 20 min, we assign them a player.

If you're not online tonight for this, you don't deserve us to wait for you.

For the record. Ill be up pretty late. So Ill make the next pick (1am) if it isnt made by then. So, guys, PLEASE PM a list of 10 players if your within the next 10 picks that way if your asleep, I can make all those picks at once. It would REALLY help get this going.

Im not opposed. But in that case, we cant eliminate any more spots. But if we vote yes on that, lhs is up at 10pm? Seem fair?

Damn it, his last activity was 9:06 tonight.

The only reason I would be opposed to that is because we already agreed how long we would wait and everyone thought we had 5 hours to wait on pick6. (even though he already said he was out.) I'm not really opposed to it, but I don't want to vote for it either. I'm hoping lhslep will check back in soon.

Yes. That is why I took Skeen last year from VCU.

I agree on not picking for people who are trustworthy, like lhs. Like I said, Ill be on here late. So if everyone sends me a list of players, even if you go to bed, I can make all those picks at once. If that makes sense.

I mean everyone who has posted since the brackets came out, I'd assume is ready to go. It may not be within minutes of being on the clock, but those people are at least checking periodically. I'd rather have a rock solid group of 15-16 with rosters of at least 6 rounds (possibly even more like 8-10) than be sensative to people's schedules...unfortunately.

All of these people have posted in this thread in the last 4 hours. That's 14 of the 19, and 2 others who aren't in that group were already done for round 1. To me, that says we have a solid 16...who are actively paying attention RIGHT NOW.

Roll with it?

Also, Play-in games count, but only if you get the pick in before the game starts. At this rate...probably not:laugh:

I think lhslep and Goon19x are very reliable and consistent. So, that's 18 out of 19...who's left...ttocs14...

Thats the biggest issue though. He is the ONE person we are waiting on right now, but he is one of the really solid, reliable posters.

Haha fuck that is dedication. When I got back from vacation last night I listed players out from teams I thought would be top seeds/could go far but really haven't put them in any order.
