Hi everyone, comment as you like.
FYI...2PPR TEs, draft accordingly.
FYI...2PPR TEs, draft accordingly.
I'm cool with leniency. I want to keep everyone engaged as long as possible. Is anyone going to be available to take lists? I'm leaving for Vegas at 6:15 tomorrow morning. I'll have the phone but with the last board update there seemed to be a couple blackberry issues.Is my clock really cut in half? I was only 17 minutes late in the first round with everyone starting the Monday morning draft on Sunday night.I PM lists regularly, but a 2 hour clock right at the beginning is going to make this next to impossible for me. A little leniency would be appreciated.
NOthing to see here.....never post at 4:47 in the Ambut anyways, i was at Thursdays night pits vs iggles. Good luck with Vick..heheh.... peaceThe clock was off until Monday - PM'd BnB for a ruling on the first round timeout at 1.04
There really aren't any good excuses since everyone knew the draft started Monday and they could be on the clock with 1.1 at 8 am. Regardless, I don't want anyone to get upset over this so we'll go with a clean slate on the clocks starting now. Hopefully the people with tighter access restrictions will make use of the pm feature so we can roll through about 1.5 rounds each day.The clock was off until Monday - PM'd BnB for a ruling on the first round timeout at 1.04

Having just done 20 rounds In the FIX in about 9-10 days I notice the hot spots tend to be around dinner time or early evening. Day time is the slowest part of the draft.'ShadowMaster said:Guys - I usually don't ##### about the clock, but.....we only have 15 days to complete 16.02 more rounds.WE MUST PICK UP THE PACEPM lists, exchange cell numbers, blow off the no internet policies at work, etc......please do what you need to do to keep us moving
GL with that, Go Phins!'ShadowMaster said:I love the value of Daniel Thomas at 8.04Sure the rookie is off to a slow start with the funky off season, but I still expect him to take over the starting role this year.
I blame it on not so smartphones.You officially suck ### if you post up picks like this...
ben franklin
instead of...
8.02 TE Iron Giant
Is it just too difficult to post the pick in a way that is easy to skim thru...I find myself having to go back and figure out if it was actually a pick. TY Shadow for updating the picks.
Why. YOu keep stealing players I was going to draft. Chad and Keller being the last 2.usually I love being at the turns. This draft has been a nightmare though.
Don't get me wrong. I think the phins personel selection is utter crap. I don't understand why we want Reggie Bush over a decent WR2 or some offensive linemen. Now we've brought in LJ2. It's comical.Thank god i still have the SteelersGL with that, Go Phins!'ShadowMaster said:I love the value of Daniel Thomas at 8.04Sure the rookie is off to a slow start with the funky off season, but I still expect him to take over the starting role this year.
I'd trade my team to you straight up. Your WR4 is my WR2.I am not feeling it with this teamQB Phillip RiversRB Ray RiceRB Brandon JacobsRB Ronnie BrownWR Marques ColstonWR Julio JonesWR Mike Sims WalkerWR Malcolm FloydWR Micheal CrabtreeTE Vernon DavisTE Zach Miller
These teams all looked better earlier in the year when we had a glimmer of hope for everyone we drafted. On the positive side...Either Campbell or Dalton will give you 15 pts every week. You won't be taking a donut. since this is survivor, you don't need the biggest score, you just need to avoid the donuts.It's possible that you have two top 16 backs in Ingram/Bush. Spiller and Sproles are above average backups. I think you're falling in the 12 team thought process...you're better than you think here.Your WR trio is just plain sick. I think Bryant takes off this year and you're staring at 3 WR1s here. Bryant's only downside is his variability which will be covered in this bb format.Graham could easily be above average.I'll predict that you make it to the second half of the season without problems.This might be the worst team I have drafted in any of these survivor leaguesQB- Campbell/DaltonRB- Ingram/R Bush/Spiller/SprolesWR- AJ/Jennings/Bryant/D MooreTE- GrahamSo, I'm WAY behind at QB, RB and TE, and slightly ahead at WR. I'll be out quickly.

BnB...8 hour clock over the weekend, we'll get like 6 picks in. I would keep it at 4 and people need to find a draft buddy to text back and forth if they are away. We only have a limited amount of days left.fyi...
Since everyone has been making a good effort and the timeouts have been minimal, everyone (including those with reduced clocks) will be on an 8 hour clock this weekend and won't incur a clock reduction if they miss their pick. Tuesday morning at 8 am all the reduced clocks will be back in place. If we haven't started round 16, I will be reducing all the clocks across the board by 50%
Hold the door Shadow, I am right behind you. I have Nate Kaeding in 4 of my 5 leagues this year.....PeaceWell this is my earliest exit ever by a good bit - feels even worse since WE JUST FINISHED THE DRAFT!Good luck to the rest of you.

Guess I was wrong. Looking at this team, still not really sure how I've made it this far. I guess Graham is the difference maker here.This might be the worst team I have drafted in any of these survivor leaguesQB- Campbell/DaltonRB- Ingram/R Bush/Spiller/SprolesWR- AJ/Jennings/Bryant/D MooreTE- GrahamSo, I'm WAY behind at QB, RB and TE, and slightly ahead at WR.
