I would be in favour of shortening the AK time as the draft moves along. I would shorten it initially to 12 hours just because it makes the math easier: If the last in-turn pick was at 4:30pm, you know the next AKing will be at 4:30am, and the next at 4:30pm, and so on.
I would keep it at that point until the holidays are over (January 5, let's say), then shorten it even more to 6 hours. At this point, you really can't complain if someone picks a show that you wanted because if you wanted it badly enough, you would have already picked it. But, I don't know, 6 hours might be too short.

Maybe i'm being unrealistic here. If i am i'm sure i'll hear about it.

Maybe instead of PMing your next pick just to GirlySports (who has her own life as well), we should also PM it to the person who picks after you in the draft since that's really the only person you're holding up. That way, if the person after you is waiting to pick, they can post your pick, then their own. If they're not waiting, you're absence isn't holding anyone else up.
