Zap 0 Posted August 8, 2006 To check out the draft room, just click Live Draft in the Draft menu. I think everything is in order and I am up. My goal for the slow portion of our draft is 12 rounds. I may make my first pick early. YOU can set the queue for the first round if you have your players ranked. That should be easy enough and it will give us a jump start when the thing actually takes off. Take a look around the draft room. Everything is self explanatory. Go to settings to set the queue (be sure to choose the right option or it will not work for you), rank players, set positional rounds, whatever you like, or not. I would truly hate to start too early, someone pick a stud, and said stud go down. On the other hand, I am anxious to get going and minimize the time needed for the live draft. We are operating without a clock for the slow portion, but please be couteous. Looooong delays can really set us back, but we will all be understanding. IF a long delay is underway, and you're close to drafting, don't heisitate to queue up your next pick. It will really help and be most appreciated. If you have any problems with the room, let me know right away. I know I said the thing wouldn't start until the 17th, but I'll probably risk my #1 after he plays this weekend. I do want to get rolling. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I selected 6 players for my list but don't see that as having pre-drafted??? Click on the player. Click "add to draft queue" done. ZAP, you're weak! Pick! Pick already! For the love of G-d, PICK!! I joke around a lot, but I think it's truly weak of you to say the draft starts on the weekend, then hold it off until Sat night so you can see the top trio in their 1st preseason action. Very convenient, considering you pick #1. Weak. I don't hate you or think it's the end of the world, but this is pretty weak. pick already. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Very convenient, considering you pick #1. Woah. I didn't realize LT and SA were also running tonight. That could delay my pick by an hour. All I wanted was to get LJ through the game healthy when I originally set the time. Nevermind that we are starting a week earlier than originally planned. I do appreciate the enthusiasm though! alsothisdecisionhasbecomeverycomplicatedforme Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zap 0 Posted August 13, 2006 I'm having trouble with the draft room. I have no player listings and cannot see any of the picks. I took LJ and the next thing I saw was the not atop the draft saying Portis went 4th. I'm pretty sure who the other two picks were, but I cannot see them or tell who went to who. Help.
