    Thanks Choppers for checking my mistake on Mick's cut off time.
    Good to see he made it on time and we are moving forward.

    We're waiting on Marty, right? Tylo sent me his picks because he's not available, but I'm not sure if its Tylo next or still Marty.

    Hey all, I have given my next few picks to the Commish, therefore if I am longer than 5 minutes to take my next pick, please see Tomster who will be all over it!. I will pop in occassionally over the weekend. Sorry Commish, but martyG had until 11.51pm to make his selection and it wasn't done within the 6hr time limit so martyG gets the auto pick which I believe is Ben Hudson. So wrightbrendan you're up when the 8am window opens.........

    I really think we should make an exception here for Marty. I know it's not within the rules and wouldn't want it to set a precedent but it's only a round 26 pick and he's done the right thing by giving someone his picks. I understand if people think we should stick hard to the rules but what does everyone reckon about giving him who he wants on this occasion? Or as a compromise, maybe he could take a pick at the end?

    He wants Ellis-Yolmen, and wright didn't pick him, so I think it will be ok
    EDIT: Fixed

    Righto guys, couple more picks to get through. I'll be out for the rest of the day, but when I come back I expect the draft to be done! Don't forgot to update your teams in the tsLeagues tab!

    Also, with entering weekly teams, do we do that on the tsLeagues or in forums? Also, the tsLeagues tab allows an emergency on the IC line...

    Were we reducing time limits to around 1h today, to make sure the draft kept going and we got all the picks done by the end of the day?

    OK my bad...........I just posted in the Super Draft Poll thread instead of this one. Basically The Boss posted in that thread he wanted a 2hr time limit starting at 12 noon. That means Mick has about 90 mins to make his selection and then we're down to 11 picks after that. Just copied his comment below.... Currently we have 9 votes for the Sunday, and 4 votes for the Saturday. I said I wouldn't accept votes after Tuesday, and I've given you all an extra day to decide. So, the superdraft day will be on Sunday. Lists must be PMed to whoever is available (I am) and if anyone decides to go MIA your commitment to the FU cause will be questioned.

    I'd like to finish the draft on Sunday. I'll be around most of the day, but mostly I'll be checking from 3pm - 8pm. I don't mind what time it starts, but 4-7 should be the time everyone is on.

    On Sunday, I'd also like to have a lowered time limit of 2 hours (starting at around 12 noon). This should be incentive enough for people to be online and checking

    Friendly reminder to PM picks for Sunday. Might want to start preparing lists now.
