crappy.... I wanted to be around for my next pick but it doesn't look like we'll get back to 10. I guess I'll update a list and get it to one of you some time tonight.

I think we should still be ok, because people have already put in time. So it's not like they will completely forget. We may have 1 or 2 people who just forget, but i think we should still be able to get this done.

I want to stay positive about this, but I think now that it has moved lots of people won't see the threads in the FOI when they log on, we're going to have a lot of people completely forget and end up getting auto drafted.

I agree... this will likely go south now... we'll have to make sure everyone PMs the next GM as soon as they've picked, and include a link to the thread.

Should be ok. People should know how to find things in this forum.

We'd had about 10 drafts in here before

I agree with GirlySports. If this thread was moved after 1 or 2 rounds I can see it going south, but we're more then 5 rounds in, so I don't see people just forgetting about it.

I really hope this keeps going. Why did it have to get moved in the first place??? Did someone actually complain for it to be moved????? I honestly never come to this part and only came here because the link was still in FOI.

I hope it keeps going

dissentowner complained in the help thread. I honestly don't see a purpose in having a contests/drafts sub-forum because no one uses it, and because of that no drafts ever get finished. I truly hope we can finish this draft but I highly doubt it

Positive thinking Cheerio. As long as the person who just drafts Pm's the next person we should be fine. We might need to pick BPA for boywonder, but GirlySports should be ready to go by 10am

We didn't finish drafts more due to my incompetence than actually losing interest.

More stuff in this sub-forum just means more people will come visit.

I've found the new thread location and will do my best to check regularly. I won't be available during the day between Wednesday and Friday though so I will have to send a list to someone tonight.

Might as well give boy_wonder the BPA. I'm on my phone so it's hard for me to look everything up.

He doesn't get Ryan Whitney, he gets Alex Burrows as that is the next player on the NHL.com site.

... and , we still have to post it in the draft choice thread as well.

Please PM Locke with instructions of where the thread is located... this should continue to go smooth if each of us does this after our selection.
