There were a couple of people that signed up that were not supposed to. Lets just get the draft out of the way here so I can input everything into Yahoo Sports.
hmm soooo how'd I go about getting my team on there? Do you have power to remove those two guys?

No Pagal does. He is the administrator. Just worry about the draft for now!

Problem is that we don't even know how long he's gone for. He could be back tomorrow, he might be gone for 3 weeks.

The lack of information is a little frustrating. There's a few options:

- Remove him, put another team in his place and start the draft with the new team picking #1.
- Remove him, get a new team in his place and redo the selection order.
- Remove him, move everyone else up one spot, and have a new team pick last. (I especially like this option!)
- Keep him, let him pick last and hope he comes back in the next couple of days.

Like you said, I would feel kind of bad for removing the guy while he's on his honeymoon, that's a little cheap. Although you did say when the draft would start and he never said anything about not being able to pick until tonight.......which kind of sucks since I made a point of checking back all day long waiting to pick second.

Really, I don't care what you decide, it's just been a little frustrating is all.

why didn't he make his pick when he logged in? it would probably be at least a day or two before it came back to him.

That's the thing, we have no idea when he is coming back. Maybe he's not back for a few weeks.

that's true, and it's pretty good justification for removing him from the draft. I would say give him until midnight tonight, but he probably wont be back by then. I think the best move is to remove him from the draft, then bump everyone up and add someone to the 20th position.

If this is gonna work its gotta be with guys that are checking in at least a couple times a day. Otherwise this sucker will take weeks.

Then I suggest we bump everyone up, and if Tilley isn't back by the time the nineteenth pick is made, Oilfan picks 20th.

I will be checking often, and im sure everyone else will too. I say do sebc's idea, leave him to last then bump him if he still isn't around.

Lets bump Tilley to 20th, and move everyone up one spot. If Tilley is not available at that time, then lets look at a replacement at that time. Lets give him every chance to make a selection. Does that work?

So I guess Koot can make his selection.

Sounds good.........I just made my pick in the selection thread.

I'll be back again later this afternoon, although I'm pretty sure I won't be picking for a while.

Just an idea... maybe when you make your pick you could PM the next person on the list? I know I get email notification for PMs but I'm here often enough that it probably wouldn't help me much. Is this a good idea?

When I tried to log into the site, it tells me the league is full. Am I still in?

Yeah we really need people in this that can check in regularly. If we only get 2 picks done every day this is gonna suck.

You are OK. Some people cough**MainFlame**cough didnt sign up in the original thread on time but signed up on yahoo. Lets get the draft done. That is the important part. The Yahoo stuff is easy to set up.

Can we have a "Draft Commentary" thread? Because Kovalchuk 5th is something I did not see coming.
