swiss is in iraq, so working his schedule in with everyone else's will be a minor challege. he says saturday evenings (US time) are the best time for him to either stay up really late or get up really early to accommodate the rest of us. well saturday the 15th is just a few days away, the 29th is a conflict for brewdude and I, and sept 5 is smack in the middle of labor day weekend. 22nd might be the only option, otherwise we do a slow draft.

feedback?

I'll be out of town this weekend, but the 22nd works for me.

I think I may be on my own that weekend (22nd) so it will likely work for me.

works

Perfect!

The earliest I could be on a computer on Saturday would be 2 p.m. ET. From then until Monday morning, I'm totally free.

22nd is fine with me.

22nd is perfect, as long as it's in the evening as I work during the day, but I'm ET so I'll be available after 5:30PM ET.

Any success making contact with everyone yet, Az? I can't believe how fast this month is going, but we're five days away from our suggested draft date.

I was sending out PMs as you were posting that. I think we're looking good, but...well, we'll see.

Roger that.

Either way, I'll be flexible.

I'm good.

Sorry for the silence - I confirmed this evening that I'm good for Sat, Aug 22nd.

Fine by me

I have been out of town and extremely busy in my personal life... I will not be available on the 22nd for a draft. Maybe a slow draft would be best with someone out of the country...?

I was also traveling/vacation. Trying to get everything in order today (fees, keepers, schedule).

My schedule is pretty flexible, so Sat PM could work. I'd prefer pretty much any other time of the week, but can make it work.

so what does this mean? it looks like everyone else can do it ...

well, we could make him preselect 16 rounds

it's no biggie, let's just kick off a slow draft as soon as keepers are in.

Sounds good - now I can look at going camping this weekend...

So we're not having the annual online fiasco? Boooooo.

I suppose I'll have to go drinking then.

Edit: I'll be doing five simultaneous slow drafts next week.
