    Yer, sorry, id read TTH's post not long after.
    Still.
    Its not a christian name unless theyre christian. Whats wrong with first name and last name?

    Well, im super pleased to have picked up Nat Fyfe, however maybe Bachar Houli will be my next pick, but i dare say he wasnt christened, so how should i lock him in in my post? :p

    For clarity posts should include a players full name as well as their AFL club

    This was my expected first speed bump tbh, not sure on the second one but I do anticipate 2.

    This is why things shouldn't start til we are all at least present. This is meant to be the start of the league, where interest is high.

    From the looks of it, I'm not even sure if Illuminati has been seen since the changeover and TTH did send the emails out to everyone.

    yeah, its surprising to have a slow start to the draft.
    However, Im not sure of others availabilities in this league. Sometimes people cannot access site whilst working during day etc.

    Yeah, no activity so far from Illuminati. I'm assuming that you guys have done the email thing?

    That's not what I'm talking about. We've had no contact from Illumanati at well since the roll over on 3rd of Jan on this site. I'm not even sure if he's reset his password and logged in because I can't see any activity on his account.

    It's got nothing to do with people's availability during the day.

    Yep, he's on the mailing list of all the emails TTH sent out.

    Actually, I think this is the only one which may make it easier to decide what to do, looks like everyone else has registered and been active here, must have simply had a religious absconder on the vote.

    Bugger, from memory, he was the guy who initially got talks of a new league kicked off in the first place. Was very enthusiastic.

    I understand that some people can't access during work hours, but no contact is definitely concerning, which is compounded by the fact they hold pick 4. I guess as per the league rules they get the allotted period of time however at what point to they become a non starter?
    The FFF has reached its first major speed bump!!

    I was hoping I would be panicking about my pick by this stage!

    For the good of the league, I would be happy to move up from pick 10 to 4 ..... ;)

    Yeah, mate, I got what you were saying. No problem. I was just mentioning that I did not know others' availabilities, due to my comment of the slow start.
    Illuminati has had an email sent to them now, so hopefully its all good once they receive it.

    I wonder if they even realised the draft was starting today...

    So why bring up people's availability to draft if it's not related to the issue at hand (not having a coach check in at all)? As said previously, Illumanti was on the mailing list that TTH sent out about the draft order and draft start that we all received.

    It does seem he's around (based on new emails from TTH) just very busy. Happy if we freeze the draft until he comes on. There's no point trying to push ahead without everyone here.

    You quoted my post so it sounded like you were responding to my post. Clearly you weren't, hence the confusion.
