sorry, don't think i addressed this.
would a draft at 5pm et (2pm pt) sunday work alright for everyone?
still need one more team for the money league. sorry to be a pest, but i don't want to leave this to the last minute. sincerely hope funkfunkfunk is ok.
I will be at work but can do my best to follow along via my phone assuming this works for everyone else. 5est is much much better for me than 7
teams that have not designated keepers still have not reached out to me. if it was your intent to keep no one, please let me know so I can finalize them tomorrow.

Would test out a mock auction draft on your phone. I'm unfamiliar and stunk at it when I tried.
Also, might want to pre-set values for players. Good idea in general so you don't get hosed by an outage.
This is the worst week for me to be slammed with work huh. In any case landspeed, I'm gonna text you but the offer of me taking over commish duties still stands. If League 2 still goes ahead, we could draft late on Sunday night (9pm EST?) if it worked for people.
scornyorno, if I take it over and it goes ahead, I'll get you a spot in League 2. Nobody has stepped forward to claim Hamilton Tigercats or jason smith is daddy, so they're gonna get booted, as will tim's smrt team. I'll PM smartphone to see if he wants to continue. We're going to be at a 12 team cap, right now it would look like:
Teams (usernames in parentheses): 1. Halfway Kurucs (jumper) 2. WELCOME LILLHO (delgriffith) 3. Lithuania '92 (Sam Bash) 4. Bazed God (tonybricker) 5. Pass & Kitties (the_village) 6. Klay Tongueson (soft milk) 7. landspeedrecord (landspeedrecord) 8. joker's trick (Infinite Jost) 9. hariz and thank you (smartphone) 10. scornyorno (scornyorno) 11. jason smith is daddy (struttin' evil mushroom) 12.
So we have 1 extra spot for anyone who wants them (and potentially a 2nd if smartphone doesn't want in). Would anyone on that list above tell me if Sunday night, 9pm EST works for a draft?
again, i will be finalizing keepers today (probably around noon pacific). if there are any mistakes with your keepers/prices/remaining budget, please let me know.

So turns out I'm likely going to miss the draft, as I found out today that this is the week my managers chose to crack down on phone usage (I work in a restaurant). But I'll pre-set values and will be active regardless. Bummer though.
If people want less of a gap between $$$ League & L2, I can also move L2 earlier - 8pm EST? That way you'd also be in less of a rush before work.
I've booted the dead/unclaimed teams from L2 and scornyorno + pauline walnuts are taking the 2 spots to bring us to 12 teams. Still waiting on smartphone to confirm his participation, so if he's out then another spot will open.

Oh no! None of the players I selected as keepers seem to be reflected on my roster
EDIT: Looking at your post on the previous page and it looks like you're already well aware of this; PMing the players I'd like to keep (if those changes are still possible)

I’m going to have to draft from my phone and am not looking forward to it at all
Just did a mock auction on the phone again and this time spent more than 30 seconds with it. It's less ideal than on a desktop, but better than I remember. Some advice:
-try to avoid entering a value in the bid box and just bid up by a dollar. If you do enter a value it gets a bit confusing and time consuming, but the current highest bid can be seen in small font under the bid button.
-keep checking on your team. I quickly forgot who my players were and who I needed to build my roster. Took some adjustment not being able to see everything on one screen.
I'm that asshole but the money league being at 6pm EST would enable me being there for (at least part of) it, whereas 5pm means I'll definitely miss all of it.
But this is a late change and so just do whatever works, I feel good about my autodraft list.
I'm keen to move the money league draft up to 7pm est if that works better for everyone...
I'll send a message out in the league since there are probably people who don't regularly check this thread
Alright to move l2 to 6pm or 10:30pm and make the picks 30 seconds so it moves along at a decent pace?
Edit: and nobody is an "asshole" for suggesting times btw. This is fun when everyone has a fair shot. I can respect that we all have wildly different schedules.
