I like that there is so much passion about CSL and the draft, its great to see.

The frustration is not about waiting but the fact that its the same person doing the same thing every single draft...

Well last year it was Kevin and chris. So it's not only one person.

Yeah and it was Gary falling asleep also (how dare you Gary!?!). But these are once off and at most people will joke about firing Gary or whatever. With Kevin its different because he does it every time - hence I said the frustration is not about delay but about the same person every draft.

Seems this minor issue always gets a few peoples noses out of joint.
I'm with BT on this one. It's nice to start the draft early - albeit unofficially - to get some picks in. But to start it early, especially on a weekend, makes things a bit difficult as not everyone is able to make their pick. Technically the draft hasn't even begun yet so people need to mellow out and let this draft play out as it will.

This is a good perspective.

Lets just change the forum name from "Draft Night" to "Draft week". Seems more fitting!

Yeah I think the logical solution here is that there are no more unofficial draft starts and that weekends aren't great to start the draft. If we put out time slots and someone checks them on a Wednesday thinking they are up on Monday, then the 24 hour clock isn't very fair to them since they planned everything based on their original time slot.

We can clear this up for next year, but again I still strongly encourage sending a list. I think every year, we get MAYBE 5 of them in total and that might be overstating it.

Haha. Fucking clowns. I didn't even have a single pick last year. Get a life.

As I've stated, I received a scouting information late friday and drove 12 hours for vacation on Saturday. Before making my pick, I wanted to be able to review everything. Unlike some of you losers, I enjoy time with my family and give them my undivided attention when I'm with them. I don't troll bc I could give a shit what you think about me. I wasn't wasting a good pick just so you could move the draft along and post your expert commentary bc you're so good at this fake game we play for fun (maybe too much fun?).

In the end, I didn't get to do what I wanted with my scouting info and made the pick so you'd quit your bitching and wouldn't get blue balls from have to wait too long. . .

D-bags.
