Starting a 4-5 hour auction draft at 9:30 EST for anyone are the east coast is pretty rough to expect to complete in one night. If we don't break it into 2 nights I think the draft should be moved to the weekend.

The end of the draft is where the bargains are and i don't want to miss it, but 2 nights is hard. I know we would stay up late tonight, but Football starts thursday and it's hard to sell two nights to my family. I would be so nice to just bang it out in one sitting? I'll live with whatever, but I can't say that I could make the second night.

That works for me as well
Blue Altoids at Sep 8, 2015 7:45 PM -
Works for me
All The Food Is Poison at Sep 8, 2015 6:12 PM -
Fine with that as well.

I'm not going to be able to do tonight. Stupid job. So, looks like we go with 9:30EST tomorrow until TBD, then finish up on Thursday evening. Everybody on board with that?
Project Mayhem at Sep 8, 2015 5:45 PM -
I can do anytime after 7 et tonight and as early as 9 et tomorrow night
Blue Altoids at Sep 8, 2015 4:38 PM -
Any chance we can do half tonight, half tomorrow? I could be available Thurs, but tonight/tomorrow would work better for me. And if we don't have a lot left for tomorrow, a 9:30pm start wouldn't be too bad.

Maybe as early as 9:15, but that's with no hold ups
Adam's Not the Bay Area Boys at Sep 8, 2015 3:52 PM -
My apologies for my triple post.... PTBNL, So 9:30EST is the earliest you can go?
Project Mayhem at Sep 8, 2015 3:48 PM -
PTBNL and Bunches of Funchess - Can you guys do 9pm EST? If so it seems like everybody is good in splitting over two nights. We can either set a drop dead time, or just go until people want to call it, then pick back up on Thursday night. Some people might not want to even mess with Thursday if they want to use the wire to fill out their roster. Let me know if that option works for everyone.
Project Mayhem at Sep 8, 2015 3:47 PM -
No way I will make it home by 9 tomorrow.

I could do that
A Team Has No Name at Sep 8, 2015 3:26 PM -
Would anyone be able to draft tonight for an hour/hour and a half if we start at 9/10 et? Finish tomorrow?
Adam's Not the Bay Area Boys at Sep 8, 2015 3:25 PM -
I'd be fine with breaking it up over two nights.

We could get as far as possible on Wednesday night and finish up on Thursday. I don't think the game on Thursday night would materially affect the last hour or two of the auction. If we're all ready to nominate when its our turn, and more importantly, if there aren't any glitches (ahem Niv), we might be able to get it down to closer to 4 hours.

9 is really pushing it for me. We can start whenever we are all in the room, so I can do my best to be there as early as I can.
Adam's Not the Bay Area Boys at Sep 8, 2015 3:19 PM -
Five hours.. wow. I'm on EST so 8 pm is really the latest I'd want to do on a week night. I guess another option would be this Saturday afternoon.
The not-so Gurley Show at Sep 8, 2015 3:17 PM -
According to members of the Slack community, the average Ottoneu FF draft is lasting about 5 hours. So if we start at 9:30 EST, we would end at roughly 2:30 AM. That's awfully late. Any chance we can start a bit earlier? Say 9:00 pm?
🚬 Jay Cutler at Sep 8, 2015 3:09 PM -
Tomorrow night works for me. Would prefer earlier 8 pm EST than later. How long do you guys anticipate it running?
The not-so Gurley Show at Sep 8, 2015 2:59 PM -
I'm in for wednesday night.
All The Food Is Poison at Sep 8, 2015 2:45 PM -
I can do tomorrow night anytime. i just cleared it. Let's do this!!
Nasty Guy Eliminated at Sep 8, 2015 2:26 PM -
I'll give a little more time for others to weigh in. I'm good for 9:30 est, so we'll call that the leader in the clubhouse for now. If you have issues with that let me know.
Project Mayhem at Sep 8, 2015 1:31 PM -
I would prefer 9:30 et as well too
Blue Altoids at Sep 8, 2015 1:29 PM -
8et Is too early for me tomorrow. 9:30 is the earliest I can draft Wednesday. I would like to get the draft in tho.
Adam's Not the Bay Area Boys at Sep 8, 2015 1:14 PM -
I (we're) good for Wednesday at 8:00 EST
🚬 Jay Cutler at Sep 8, 2015 1:11 PM -
I'm good with Wednesday evening. 7:00 or 8:00 CST ideally but I can make anything work.

I think tomorrow (Wednesday) would be best, that way we get the Thursday game in. Any issues with that?
Project Mayhem at Sep 8, 2015 1:08 PM -
Now the hard question. When is the draft? I'm heading to a wedding this weekend. So hoping it was going to be this week. Wed? thur? I suppose it's hard to get 12 dudes toether for an auction with such short notice.
Nasty Guy Eliminated at Sep 8, 2015 1:06 PM -
We are here. Hello and Good luck
Smoke and Mirrors and WR2's at Sep 8, 2015 12:30 PM -
Yes I've reached out to the available players board. We should have a merger take place today with another league. Still hoping to maybe get to 12 by today or Tuesday. If that happens we will draft Wednesday. If not we will push back to this weekend and try to get full by then. Still got a few verbal commitments out there, just waiting for them to sign up. I'll keep everybody updated and get feedback tonight.
Project Mayhem at Sep 7, 2015 11:56 AM -
once the league is filled will we draft even if the season is in progress? say week 2 or 3? I might be able to get a player or two if we can start the season late. Let me know. I'd like to still do this league. Have we combed the availible players forum?
