It is what it is, I’m sure there are a lot of people on the east coast where it’s currently 11pm.

I contacted Free_Zeke and reminded them they need to pick in Frank Division. I sent them a link to the draft room in case they were having trouble with that.

I have it automatically set to put anyone who times out twice on autodraft. But let me know if/when someone does, so I can double check that the setting went through.

Seems like everyone who took 6+ hours so far is a non-goon, wonder if opening it up to the masses was a mistake.

Just watch the winner be someone who autodrafts their whole team and never makes a substitution.

Me too, I'm talking with a few goons about the Scott fish bowl they are in, and they're like "okay I'm coming up in two picks here's my first six picks should I get this guy or this guy or this guy? Hurry!" And I'm like, "okay... it's my pick... should I take
.. no I should obviously take Johnson never mind... I'll check back in in two days"

At this rate the only NFL game that we will have our full squad for is the Pro Bowl.




Drunk, thanks for making it so if you timeout twice you go auto. That will speed things up significantly after this round. Also thanks for putting up with my winning whining.

Your whining is nothing compared to mine. I've just been full of impotent rage the last few days and this "slow" draft has pushed me to the brink of madness. I think I need to send DN a craft beer.

I especially hate when I'm one pick away and the guy I want is at the top of the list.

"Ohhh, I hope the owner picking gets a different guy, this is so tense!"

<3 hours later>

"Yeah he's gonna autodraft him and I have to sit here for 5 hours and wait for it"

That gets less likely the further into the draft it gets though, correct? As in it doesn't autodraft the best player, but the best player at the most needed position.

I would love to, but since I'm up next it would be totes unethical of me.

I emailed the 4 people who timed out and the 1 person who's been on the clock for 6.5 hours. We should see some movement.

Two divisions have no people who timed out, so that's nice for them.

I hate Chasereamer with the fire of a thousand suns. I also predict Gurley is going to end the year as the RB1 solely based on the fact that this son of a bitch is about to autodraft him and we live in a cold, unfeeling universe and God is dead.

Same

But at this point I don’t want them coming back for this pick. Just end up on auto draft and we can move on.
