Are we all okay with the 8:30 ET, 7:30 CT, 6:30 MT, 5:30 PT?

I get up pretty early in the AM so I would not want to push is back much later if at all. Grunge only gets home from work at 5pm PT so 5:30 PT is about as early as he can make it.

Is 8:30 ET, 7:30 CT, 6:30 MT, 5:30 PT going to work for all of us?

I'm fine with 8:30ET but would not want to start any later than that.

Also, is it not about time to "roll 'dem bones" for draft order?

Lastly, the time above would be on Tue 9/16, right?

Also, is it not about time to "roll 'dem bones" for draft order? As soon as we fill that last spot then we can roll the bones. Or maybe I will just fire up a bone thread and get it started. whacko2.gif

5:30 should be fine.

Is there a draft timer? How long for each pick?

Yes there is a two minute timer but we don't screw you if you lost a connection or something. However if you have a major problem that keeps on going on or you are gone for more than a few minutes then you are going to end up with an ADP player that is not hurt.

I can make 6:30pm MT work. I can probably go 6pm MT, but that is very dicey with me. 6:30pm MT would be best for me.

Same here. Daughter has soccer practice Tuesday night, and wont get home from there until around 7:00 CT. Prefer not to cut it that close and keep you fine folks waiting on me.

8:30pm ET sounding good then?

You know....we generally don't go the whole 2 minutes per pick....but....we CAN cut it to 90 seconds. Then I'll be able to catch it if someone's gone to the bathroom or something.....LOL. Just a suggestion. wink.gif I mean...we don't have to be strict on it, but the mindset will speed up if we cut it to 90 seconds. wink.gif

Just some food for thought.......we did 90 seconds in our local and were finished in about 2 hours.
