Draft Tomorrow


Hey everybody,

Just a reminder that the draft is tomorrow:

Saturday, October 14th, 2006
11:30am Phoenix Time (PST)
Pick duration: 3 minutes

If you are missing for your first pick and do not make that pick at the end of 3 minutes, you will be autopicked. Your 2nd pick will be the same. If you are autopicked twice in a row, you will continue to be autopicked throughout the draft automatically, i.e. no waiting 3:00 for the other owners.

If you show up late, you will be able to remove yourself from autopick and continue on as normal.

Um... yeah.

To clarify, this is for the 30-team ASFNBA league on NBA.com.

Thanks for answering my dumb question. Cold air is warping my brain in Chicago.

I'm sure we probably can. I wonder if there is a built in chat with NBA.com? I don't know if there is or not.

It seems that the draft will occur at the same time as the Suns open practice. It doesn't affect me since i'm not in AZ, but I wonder if anyone who is in the league will miss the draft because of it.

I will be able to participate. One recommendation, make it 1 minute and 30 seconds to draft, 3 minutes is way too long, especially in a league so big. I know this from doing fantasy football and baseball with big leagues. One minute is even okay.

Originally, it was set to 1 minute 30 seconds, but I changed it last night. Mostly to give people an opportunity to be ready. Autopicking of course bypasses the time limit, and if someone doesn't pick within their 3 minutes twice in a row, they will automatically be moved to autopicking.

If it stays 3 minutes it will take about 4-5 hours, which is too long. Also, if it takes someone more than a minute to pick than they should not be picking.

Draft time changed to 2 minutes instead of 3.

I'm in a draft right now that's taken 3 days, and we're only on Round 3!! So complaining about a 4-5 hours draft doesn't do much for me.
