I have a feeling we're going to hit another snag and wait another 12 hours

You could do, but the list would have to be ~30 deep... likely a little premature, unless you know you won't be online for an extended period.

Ya I think you only need to PM picks if you know you are going to be gone for an extended period of time or within at least 5 away from your pick and you don't think you will be around for it.

Instead of putting the total amount you can spend in the roster page I put the total amount you have spent so far and the amount you have remaining.

I wonder if diane_phaneuf and I will end up picking mostly Canucks, because I see most of them possibly being available at our picks.

The relative values of Flames, Oilers and Canucks players in this draft will be quite interesting. So far Iginla and the Sedins have been drafted in pretty reasonable positions I would say.

Everyone relax...there is no rush for this. people have real lives to tend to and things come up.

Yes a time limit is fair, but its got to be a reasonable one as well. Some folks live in different time zones, work different shifts, etc etc...so chill a bit.

I realize there are a lot of players to get to, but again this isnt a pool nor is there really anything on the line, so patience will be a key.

One thing to do is whomever makes a pick should PM the next guy and so on if thats not being done already.

I understand but there is one thing to rush and another when a pick is taking an entire day. People may have lives and I completely agree that things can get busy but why sign up if you can't visit to make a pick in 18 hours? Don't sign-up if you are too busy.
