Signed in on the Yahoos. Team name is "Pug-Life" I found it such a pain trying to figure out what team was what motl member. Might make it easier if team name mirror's motl name. Pick on its way...

Thats prolly true. But if you don't know who Monster NOS is or who the commish is, you're prolly in the wrong league then! __________________ 31st in refs on Motl! #1 Ref's for Arizona!

Can we auto pick and move on to the next person? I feel like the longer this drags out, the more people may lose interest...

We've never, to my knowledge ever autopicked the first round draft pick, or anything till like 10th round. My suggestion would be to message Rabid Wo1f and tell him he is on the clock.quote: I can try and update this daily, so if you sign up, please be consistent and make your picks on time. 24 hour time limit, till the Xth round, or 2 weeks prior to the first game of the season when the clock goes to 12 hour limit. If this is not done by 3 days before the first game of the season, I can auto draft the rest of the picks.

Its a 24 hour clock until like 2 or 1 week prior to the season starting. We've got plenty of time. However, I do agree if this does drag out like it is doing right now, or how I feel it is, persons are going to lose interest and just quit altogether. In the meantime, I think its best if we all message him saying he's on the clock for his 1st round pick. ~Revenger quote: Originally posted by puregoblinboy47: Sounds good. how about skip the player after 12 hours, then top player available after 24

It's been at least 36 hrs now. Can we move on please?BTW - in this thread, Rabid Wolf said he doesn't check this board regularly and to contact him on Facebook. Does anyone know what that means, and has anyone tried that?

Awesome! Now, to everyone out there, who knows we have started, is it to much trouble to check the motl draft page every day or every other day? 15 minutes of your time, from your laptop or cell phone just poke in, see who is on the clock (and check maybe to see if you are coming up as well) and make note? I'm on here daily, I think sometimes hourly (lol). I have home data spreadsheet of draft picks, and email notifications for everything. I can message motl pm anyone who is on the clock, however, I think only for the first round. Up to y'all after that. ~Revenger __________________ 31st in refs on Motl! #1 Ref's for Arizona!

Another 1st round missed pick... I have a bad feeling about this... anyone beside me messaged puregoblinboy47 that he is on the clock for his 1st round pick and to begin the 2nd round? __________________ 31st in refs on Motl! #1 Ref's for Arizona!

18 hour workday. If I'm up on a friday, it will likely be a late pick. I usually work doubles on Friday. Next time I'll send revenger my picks to keep it moving.

Not like we don't have awhile before it actually starts anyway. Also I made my pick. May be spelled wrong.

This is my first year, and I don't want to jump in and change everything, but I think we should maybe explore setting a date/time and just doing a Yahoo online draft. That way, we could knock it out in an hour. Just a thought.

If y'all want to do that instead, ok thats fine with me, however I will not be participating or running it. Tradition of this is like 10+ years...so I don't know. I'll be running this is until it dies.One of the reason why that never works is we can never get everyone on the same schedule/time to do that. We have a team right now that works the 3rd shift, so it just makes it nearly impossible to do that. I'm flexible I could possibly make it work for myself, but not everyone can. For example: I'm on the same time zone as WOTC right now (Arizona time zone actually never changes) but lets face it, between 9pm and 9am, I'm out, asleep, watching the tube...etc etc. quote: Originally posted by B-Town: This is my first year, and I don't want to jump in and change everything, but I think we should maybe explore setting a date/time and just doing a Yahoo online draft.

Board draft will be fine. Maybe try to email the next in line to make sure they know they're up.

Well since Steelerman is quitting after one missed pick, we have to pause until we can find a replacement for him.I've not a clue right now on who can replace, but I can search. I do hope everyone else can search for a replacement as well. Until then, we are paused, and hopefully this doesn't take to long. ~Revenger __________________ 31st in refs on Motl! #1 Ref's for Arizona! Your 2008, 2010 & 2012 Siskel & Ebert award winner!
