For the record, the negotiations had taken place for quite a while before my clock started and when one person wasn't getting back to me promptly and the other told me that he likely wasn't going to meet my price, I made my pick. If I've been negotiating with someone for quite a while on a pick (and someone else joins in too) and we're trying to come to an agreement and I'm using the clock time I'm granted, I don't see how that's wrong when the person after me wasn't online (under my impression), meaning it's not like I was holding up the draft (again, under my impression).
