Rookie Draft Start Date!

The Immortal Ramirez · April 25th, 2005, 04:39 PM

Let's discuss.

I personally think tomorrow is too soon since it's 4:38 right now...

We can start Weds, or next Monday, or next Weds since we have people gone on Monday and Tues.

Thoughts or should I just put it up as a vote...

April 25th, 2005, 04:44 PM

Any chance we can get an official copy of the rules mailed out BEFORE we start the auction?

Is the 16th too far out? Someone is out the week of the 8th, Mutts I think.

Just setup a poll with 4 options... and why not tommorrow?

I'd put options of tommorrow, Wednesday, Monday next week (May 2), or Wednesday the following week (May 11)

This is about the draft starting...sheesh.

The auction won't start for a few weeks, if not a month IMO. We can finalize all the rules befoe then. The rookie draft however has the salary scale, so if folks are ready we can start. We'll see what the votes say.

I don't think we'll get seven votes in before tomorrow...and does 1.1 know about this or has he gone home for the day already...
those were my only concerns.

1.1 knows.

Mutts · April 25th, 2005, 10:12 PM

I'm willing to change my vote to Wednesday if it helps us get this thing started.

Nittany Dodgers · April 25th, 2005, 10:33 PM

I voted for Wednesday, but Tuesday is fine with me as well if that would be the majority.

Mutts · April 25th, 2005, 10:35 PM

Who hasn't voted Mike?

Steve (Rami), Matt (Freedom), and Frank (Flaxwless) still need to vote on this.

keepers · April 25th, 2005, 10:55 PM

Looks like we should just start Wednesday assuming that those who voted for Tuesday would prefer to start this week rather than waiting until next week.

I voted Tuesday, but Wednesday is fine with me to reach a consensus.

Philadelphia Freedom · April 26th, 2005, 08:08 AM

Don't usually check at home (so if it happens after 4pm on a weekday I won't likely see it). Anyhow, Wednesday is fine by me. Is there a 24 hour clock?

Yes, standard 24 hour clock, though I hope we can move along much quicker than that.

The Immortal Ramirez · April 26th, 2005, 08:27 AM

yes, there's a 24 hour clock.

It be Frank (Flaxwless)... I think he's already aware, but I'll catch him om AIM later today and make sure he knows.

His AIM handle BTW is the same as his username here (Flaxwless).

Philadelphia Freedom · April 26th, 2005, 11:46 AM

Will there be a seperate topic set-up for this like with the Frenzy. Also, just so I am clear the clock on pick 1.1 starts midnight tonight?

And can we make picks in advance if ready and just not start the official clock until whatever is decided as "official" start time? please

Yes, I'll setup a forum for the draft as well as post instructions later today.

The clock will "officially" begin at 12:00am tonight.

yes - as far as I understand it. if the owner right before you picks, you can then post your pick ...you don't have to wait until the next day.
