May just be being overly keen here but when does the 24 hour rule come into affect, cause I thought it was after the 5th? Eden had been very active so seems strange that he'd have disappeared. Heard from him Tomster?
Also, anyone have a prediction on when the inevitable flood of Ruckmen getting picked will start? Thought the early spanner of NicNat was going to cause early chaos but seems to have held off for now.

Not sure if we said the 5th or the 15th, but right now I think the 24h rule should come into effect as of the start of round 2.
official rules thread states that draft commences day after Supercoach positions are announced and 24hour rule is in effect. shall we turn the clock on as of now then? im up for that. positions have been announced, its after the 5th (wherever that came from originally i dont know). lets get cracking!

Yep.. 24hr rule is in effect.
I've PM'd Holky and told him the clock is ticking, he has until the end of today and then he gets the highest averaging player remaining from 2013. Damo is in South America and is up next, hopefully everyone has notifications turned on for this thread!

I suppose it's a dangerous precedent to start giving people extra time.Hope he makes it cause I reckon he'll pick someone from left field.
Tomster, did Holky give you his mobile number? Maybe a text is the way to go, if not we have to enact the 24hr rule, which without knowing the exact time it began maybe we could give him until 8am EST on the 7th (tomorrow)? If he has not posted a pick by that time then he gets Ryan Griffen, does anyone have any objections to this?
It has been almost two days according to my very faulty tooserious clock, so Eden Whalers shall be given Ryan Griffen. Now might be a good time for us to start sending a list of picks either to me or the person before you in the draft so as we can get moving more quickly - so far 13 picks in 22 days
On the ruckmen subject I think that most people will use their round 2 picks if they haven't already got a ruckmen. Hopefully not, because by the time it gets to me most of the good giants will be gone

No-one can complain with Griff or Stevie J!
Yeah I remember Holky saying something about using the internet at school but not being able to get on regularly on weekends. Couldn't be too unhappy with Griffen but I dunno if I'd want a 30+y/o Stevie J now he is mid only.
