[QUOTE="LeapingShark, post: 1800966, member: 15618"] Good ideas for speeding things up, but I certainly will not reveal my top picks to another manager in the game. Sigil could potentially use them for ideas when picking players that slip through into the next round, plus he would know the types of players that I'm interested in. If we did such a thing, we would need an impartial 3rd party to sort the lists. I like the 12 hour window thing, and I think it should be increased if we're still far behind later on. Oct 11-17: 12 hour window (ensures 12+ picks) Oct 18-24: 6 hour window (ensures 24+ picks) Oct 25-31: 3 hour window (ensures 48+ picks) This way it "encourages" checking the boards even faster because there is a penalty (somebody moves up above your pick slot if you can't make it in time). For anybody that "can't" get online fast enough (for example if you are alseep, or at work), you always have the option of posting your make-up pick at any time when you come back online. One other idea I had was to make it a requirement that each manager "email" the next manager in line as soon as they complete their own pick. That way there's one less excuse not to know when your own turn begins. I don't think we even have the option to "hand it over to yahoo", unless we scrap the entire draft and start over. Once Sigil enters our partial picks, the rest of the player pool will be free and open for everyone to pick up at random. [/QUOTE]
