Cowboysboard vs The warpath new draft time

[Blue Star]

Does this time work for everyone? Or how bout sunday anytime between 2pm- 6pm (as one owner is 5 hours ahead of est, yes I am being considerate of a redskin fan). Not sure how many westcoast or mountain time zoners we have in the league.

Thanks for the last minute change. I got online at 7:40 for the 7:45 draft and SURPISE!!!!!!

The new (new new) time slot rules me out again, as I would be working Sat afternoon - I'll pre-rank though so if it stays as is I won't end up with a bunch of Cowboys. - to be honest keeping at its original time slot would have been best (everyone knew the date and time and if they missed it, it was there own fault).
As a commish of several leagues I find it is better to set up a league with a draft date/time set in stone and inform everyone that that is when it will take place and only join if they can be there or are serious about playing and pre-rank. Trying to change to suit one or two players inevitably end up messing up others.

Is this the worst organized draft ever? Sure seems that way from all I keep reading

So wait when is the draft??

[Blue Star]

Once again I had not received a notice from yahoo about the draft and figured you guys did not either, so I changed the time (to allow more of a notice) sent out my own emails made a couple of post on the boards to inform you of the draft. Then I realized I set my email to something different this year and had been missing every email. Anyone could make a mistake like that. Had I made the draft time early as shi* informed only cowboy members and left you in the dark , you could bit*h and moan over something like that.

I have seen other commissioners of leagues change the draft earlier than it should have been. This is not that case I was looking in the best interest of everyone because yahoo fuks up a lot. I guess where I messed up was setting it too far back and maybe just an hour would have been better. Its over and done with, today is Tuesday Aug 28 the draft is 3 days and 13 hours away.

Last year no one could sign on at draft time because yahoo systems failed. and we had to redraft (some wanted to keep there players, some did not so I flipped a coin and redraft it was). This is far less of a pain then that was and I am totally done discussing this matter as of right now.

The league is set at 7cowboys vs 7skins thanks to jsarno dropping. I think everyone but santana man and I (50-50) will not make it to the draft have fun.

I look forward to tearing some of you an asshol* again this season, aint that right Buster.

You should all really save the crying for the terrible season that the skins are going to have.

We'll see...last year's Cowboys vs. Skins draft caused us to miss Week 1! We had autodrafted (which is perfectly fair and fine with many other leagues) and then our teams were suddenly dumped to the waiver wire and we had to re-do it.



So it's September 1 now and won't change again?

I actually made an effort to make the draft when it was originally scheduled and then it had been changed at the last minute.

10:30 a.m. on Saturday. I'll set my alarm clock.




If it's changed again, I'm emailing you the Ron Mexico computer virus.
