When do you guys want the FA Draft "live" portion?

[SultansOfSquat (Man)]

If you choose "Other", please post your preference(s).

Also, if possible, please post a list of all the draft times that would work ok for you even if they are not your most prefered times. In the end, we want to set up a time so that everyone can make for the "live" portion of the FA Draft.

Please remember that this is just for the "live" portion (and towards the latter part) of the FA Draft. There will also be the "slow" portion beforehand just like last year to help ensure team owners don't miss the most important earlier part of the FA Draft. So it won't be the end of the world if we cannot agree to a time that works for everyone even though that would of course be preferable.

If we cannot find a good time to suit everyone, we can still do proxy picks for the one or two team owners who can't make it provided those owners submit a pre-ranked players list for us to use on their behalves. There will also be additional provision in case team owners become unexpectedly missing at the "live" draft.

So far, it looks like we're shooting for Sunday night (3/25) though only 7 people voted for it. Would it help if we do it at say 6pm EST, instead of 9pm EST, on Sunday? OR is that worse for some of the folks who voted for 9pm EST, Sunday?

6pm EST is about the latest I can do - 9pm EST is 2am over here!

[SultansOfSquat (Man)]

Well, looks like we're set for Sunday night EST, 3/25 then. And it looks like probably 9pm EST since no one else has voted in the 2nd poll for the earlier 6pm EST time or has said anything for it here.

For all those who cannot make the Sunday night EST time, please prepare and send a pre-ranked proxy list for me to use on your behalf. If you prefer, I can also pick using Yahoo O-Rank or maybe just based on 2006 fantasy points (using our own points system though you may want to differeniate between bats, SPs and RPs) or some other online rankings you like or some simple mix w/ relatively simple, clear instructions (like avoid bats w/ <10HR in 2006, avoid players who will be FA eligible if options/extensions are not picked up, or prioritized filling of positions, etc).
