By the way.....I'm delaying the keeper deadline another week. So it won't be this coming Wednesday the 25th. It will be Wednesday, February 1st at noon. The draft will then take place a week later on February 8th. Any questions, let me know. Yahoo should be open on Feb. 7...will that be enough time to register everyone and load rosters? You could always do what Bud just did and extend your commish contract and give yourself a big pay raise!! That's a great idea! I'll accept that motion and announce my contract extension until 2015 with annual raises of 200% . . . to keep up with the inflation. Since Jim is my assistant commish here I'll announce his extension til 2015 with 200% increases annually as well.

Can't forget Ken - Since Ken does a lot of the dirty work (our hired hitman) then we'll up his bonus by 200% for each job well done;)

So... do we want to make this draft be a 4-hour window, just to give that a try?

With phone technology, texting, IPads, etc. it is easier for most to access the internet. Only issue is not everyone has the same capability that some enjoy. I probably would put it to a vote and see how everyone feels. And to think when we first started we were drafting using 8 hr time limits

And to think when we first started we were drafting using 8 hr time limits Yes...that would be me...not only do I not text, but I also deal with the 3% that AT&T has forgotten. It doesn't matter much to me because I'll send a list if I need it. We only have 10 rounds and just 12 teams I'm not understanding the need to rush things. Is this a suggestion in response to the painful pace of the Fix & Geek drafts?

Is this a suggestion in response to the painful pace of the Fix & Geek drafts? I guess it's a response in a way to the slow process (at times) of the Geek league. But also - a number of us are in at least 4 leagues together....if not more. There's no need to rush through a draft but if it allows more time to other drafts that may go on - there are still a couple of drafts for me and others as well before the start of the season. I'm hoping to keep it at 5 hours.....but I don't think it's too big of a deal to go to 4 ---- as long as the person that makes a pick emails the guy after him as a heads up. Three to four hours can go by fast during a work week and I don't want to make a rule that would hurt someone to actually pick and be in the league.

At least, I hope so... LOL I responded to the posts here before I saw the discussion in Geeks. The Fix draft went 5+ weeks and I didn't think it would end before spring. I don't think we have that problem in this league as we seem to keep things moving along quite well by sending short list when unavailable. Can we hold off on the draft until Feb. 13 so we can get everyone signed on and rosters loaded into yahoo? I believe in the past we have been selecting our player thru Yahoo and posting here in the draft thread.
