P2F Old-Timey Member Posted March 8, 2019 Posted March 8, 2019 The non-board league that BTS, JFL, and I participate in went to one-hour clocks for the back-half of the amateur draft and it worked really well. There's definitely nothing wrong with 6-hour windows, imo.
L54 Old-Timey Member Posted March 8, 2019 Posted March 8, 2019 Yes to 6 hour windows. Check at lunch and at supper and you’ll be fine
King Old-Timey Member Posted March 8, 2019 Posted March 8, 2019 The non-board league that BTS, JFL, and I participate in went to one-hour clocks for the back-half of the amateur draft and it worked really well. I've been pounding this drum for a long time. At the last half of the draft, there is also less to lose if you miss your window. People would be more likely to send a list of picks to other managers when they are not around. I think it would greatly improve the way we draft in board leagues. I get that 1 hour is pretty quick, but something like 3 hours would work pretty well imo.

TheHurl Site Manager Posted March 8, 2019 Posted March 8, 2019 I am good with 1 hour clocks right now. If you are so worried about being snipped on Kevin Pillar than produce a list and give it someone.
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted March 8, 2019 Posted March 8, 2019 Yeah. I just got fired. Cleaning out my office right now. lol... you actually edit that post? P2F and I have been sharing that site link for years now.
Laika Community Moderator Posted March 8, 2019 Author Posted March 8, 2019 Okay I think starting with the draft this summer we will do something like: Rounds 1 and 2 = 6 hour windows with a clock freeze from 1 am to 7 am Rest of the draft = 3 hour windows with the same clock freeze No penalties for missing a pick will be necessary. I'm not sure there is any need to go all the way to 1 hour windows. Might as well just run a live draft through some online method or chat at that point.
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted March 9, 2019 Posted March 9, 2019 I'd try the f*** out of it, but the term milkshake IPA makes me just the slightest bit queasy. I thought the same thing. :/ Holy f***, I absolutely must try this. I wonder how much it would cost to ship here from Toronto. Just bought this, not a big fan but that's me, I can't quite put my finger on it, I think it tastes like a creamy grapefruit, and I hate grapefruit. Bleh... should've picked up the Lowenbrau. Yeah, it's far too bitter.

BTS Community Moderator Posted March 9, 2019 Posted March 9, 2019 What do we do with the waiver order in this league to start the season? Also, is there a way to waive all free agents, or is that just a Fantrax thing?
Laika Community Moderator Posted March 9, 2019 Author Posted March 9, 2019 What do we do with the waiver order in this league to start the season? Also, is there a way to waive all free agents, or is that just a Fantrax thing? Yeah there is a way to put every FA on waivers. Just set the league system to rolling waivers, then change it back to open FA after the one cycle. Waiver order is reverse standings
Laika Community Moderator Posted March 9, 2019 Author Posted March 9, 2019 I emailed the next 3 in the draft

There was an option to ignore those games, but that's not really fair to anyone with players in them. I blame MLB more than Yahoo.
Orgfiller Old-Timey Member Posted March 9, 2019 Posted March 9, 2019 If this is allowed, I'm trading my upcoming pick (82) along with a fifth round waiver from next year to silvergun for his fourth round waiver next year.
tafkasg Verified Member Posted March 9, 2019 Posted March 9, 2019 Sorry. I took Gio Gonzalez Oh you little prick
tafkasg Verified Member Posted March 9, 2019 Posted March 9, 2019 IIRC that trade is cool right, you guys just didn't want to track that s*** yourselves on the sheet? I'm taking Shelby Miller, Pmd Havok.
