If you can't make a list in 48 hours, then..what? I personally do not want to go back to idiots taking all 8, 10, 12 hours just to be autoed and the first round dragging out a week. This is a simple, uncomplicated process that does not require that length of time to complete. Back in the day, when Deputy was just a glimmer in Mrs. Deputy's eye, we did live drafts in one day (really just a couple of hours). People sent lists if they knew or didn't think they could attend. Easy peezy.

Not everyone checks this thread often. I had no idea there was a start time for the draft, and I think an hour wait between picks would've been better. Would've taken no more than 3 days tops.

I'd be okay with an hour... I received an email notification, immediately logged in and found that about fifteen minutes had gone by and my pick and the Nets pick had already been made. I'm not sure why the email wasn't instantaneous.

To be fair, I just asked for a clear start time in the next draft. I'm fine with the new format

For indecisive guys like me, PLEASE make sure to get the start time of the next draft clear beforehand. I'm not gonna ask for a re-draft but I set my alarm at noon ET (5pm in Spain time) cause I read a comment the Commish made in the shoutbox like two days ago...but the draft got underway 30 minutes earlier than said. Now I got Mike Dunleavy Jr, a player which I despise, instead of Tayshaun Prince, the guy that I really wanted. If you're thinking about answering 'next time make a list' (hey Mavs), please don't do it. Yeah, I'm not decisive enough to list 7 names. I know it sucks and I constantly have to deal with it, I don't need to be reminded everyday. The reason for this was a flaw in the system, really. As the first pick in the draft, I was unable to make a list. I could only draft a guy. I wasn’t going to be on for the draft, so I had to pick Yao 30 minutes early. Essentially, this should have made a list for my team, but instead it made the draft start 30 minutes early which screwed some teams who had early picks and knew they would be around at noon to pick. Im not saying it should be a re-draft but there is a legit gripe about it, past the “you should have made a list” comments. The rebuttal to that is some people were planning to be on at noon to make their pick, so they didn’t make a list. When the draft started early, their pick was made before noon. I think in that case, they really did get screwed. Me missing my 17th pick was completely my fault though. Whoops.

I think there should be a timer counting down to the start of the draft, say 12 hours.
