Little lackluster in the keeping up

DiamondDave · March 9th, 2007, 02:53 PM

Guys

We have already had one person leave, and we have had one mispick so far. Now we are also falling behind on checking in on what is going on.

Lets try and keep up with this a little more. We are halfway done and almost upon the NFL draft, which is about how I wanted to time it.

Let's try and keep with the 24 hour clock as well as keeping an eye when that clock expires, if you are the next person to pick. If that clock passes, you can make your pick and keep the draft going.

I'm kinda surprised about it to be honest. I really figured EVERYONE would get up for something like this. I mean this could be a lot of fun for a lot of years. That's the way I see it anyway. I'm real excited about it.

I'm just to surprised to see that we got caught up....I mean, after I finally made the first pick we flew to the end of the 2nd round....and we're still there...

Im trying to keep up, Ive recently had a baby, moved and started an ew job all in the same 3 week span so ive been busy as all get out... but I have never missed a pick and if I thought I would I passed a list to Diamond so I wouldnt hold us up... Once things settle down for me ill be on alot more but once every other day I about all I can do now.

It's not a big deal to have a busy life and such, that we can all obviously understand...I think the frustration has come from when people are on the clock, and they are active on other areas of the site, and then miss their pick....but hopefully we'll get back to a good speed.

I really do try to keep checking the site on a daily basis. It just sucks when you decide to skip 2 people the day I last checked. I didnt expect to be on the clock so soon. I don't remember anyone saying anything about being able to skip 2 people. All that was clarified was that the person after someone on the clock may make their pick if they want after a 24 hour period. How does that give Dave the right to skip 2 people if the second person in line wants to cut the guy some slack? I know we want to keep things moving but it's really hard when I have no ability to determine when someone is going to start my clock.

Each person has 24 hours to make their pick, we all agreed on this...that means that every 24 hours that passes, the next person can pick...no one was skipped, everyone has been given their 24 hour limit to work within.

I just make it a habit to check in the morning or in the evening.... even I was over 24 hours and someone could have picked in front of me... it happens....
