Sorry guys I'm not going to have time to do this, just skip my turns. I really thought I would but I wasn't even able to log in between my post and this one. Fucking job...

Okay, so we're going with 11. We do need to have a time limit. I would say if you can't make it to get us at least 12 rounds, meaning you probably have to be logged on multiple times per day, it's better not to do it.

at this rate, we aren't going to get through 3 rounds.

I92's idea of everyone making a list isn't sounding too bad.

It may need tweeked but I really don't think it would be that bad. Each participant would just have to research players a little bit earlier (instead of when their pick is nearing.

Once organized any one of you could get every team together. Maybe a free entry fee for the person who compiles and sorts the info.

I don't like the idea only because pace depicts when you draft first four and sleepers. If I have a guy I don't think anyone is taking, I'm waiting till last round. Same principle applies to Tuesday and Wednesday games.

Ok so 12:15.

I know Mirg said Gerb is in, via texting him. But he hasn't posted for nearly a year lol. Might be rolling with 10!!

If we don't get at least 10 rounds, I say we don't do it at all. I'm hoping for 13 or 14. We had 12X12 every year prior right?

Gerb hasn't posted on here since it started but I think for the most part everyone else is ready to go

I think one year we had 11 picks. Maybe it was 11 teams. Can't remember.

But yeah, at least 10 is best.

I say we keep going. If a team skips 2 rounds, we just eliminate them. I'd rather lose 2 or 3 people and make sure we get a lot of rounds, than have the same people time out.

Lshep is out
Gerb is out if he misses another round

Last year was good, but we typically start slow then find a groove. I do think we should make it a point for everyone to have their number given to someone else to be able to text.

OK this is a little bullshit. We waited on lhs to not pick for 14 hours. Then give gerb 4?
