Perhaps we could decrease the "clock" from 24 hours on Sunday? 3 draft picks a day = 4 2/3 days per round. At that rate it is going to take 46 2/3 days to complete a ten round draft.
Gonna be cutting it real close to start date of regular season if we all can't agree upon a time to speed it up a little bit. Regular season starts in three weeks, 21 days.

Sounds good to me. In theory this draft could take 140 days. At this rate it may since its only the first round. Usually first round picks fly off the board. I understand the different time zone aspect element though but 2 days for the top three picks to come of the board is alarming.

could we hold a draft on yahoo in the week or on this weekend. i am pretty sure u can do that by putting the players on the right team and then picking the rest in the draft. am i wrong or right on this one

just trying to see what we can do to speed things up, I have training coming up after next week and will not be able to go online for large stretches of time during the two weeks leading up to the season. I have alerted dennis to this and will do my best to relay my picks in a timely manner but I definitely think if we could do a speed round or two it would help.

can people not near a pc get text messages? maybe we can text the person when they need to draft and they can text who they want. or if they can make a short list of who they want if they wont be around for a while and prioritize they players on it accordingly to who is available then post it.
IE
I want Smith White Williams Miller Jones
say smith and white are drafted before they are up. Default they get williams.. just a thought for some effeciency

I can draft on Sunday as well. Even if we don't finish we can probably burn through 4-5 rounds in one day if we spend some time on it.

Maybe we should find a day and draft via messanger or use an online conference room, this would allow us to finish the draft within 2 hours!
I´ll suggest some days, let´s hope we will find one that fits for all gms!

no problem, used it in another league for a 3 way trade to get Tavares in our prospect draft last season.
