mcbigski Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 So when is the draft? I have cash league drafts on the Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday before the first game. Need to schedule this one and my cousins' league. I'd be great with the Thursday before opening day. Unless they're still working on BL's kitchen.

Whiskeyjack Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 Guess everyone is okay with me being the commissioner. Need to figure out the draft date. Sounds like mcbigski is out for September 5-7. I've got conflicts on August 23, August 29, August 30, and August 31, unless we draft pretty late (i.e. start at 9:45 central or later). Lots of late kids soccer practices this year. August 26-28 and September 2-4 could also be issues for me, but won't know until later. That leaves us with these options: Monday August 22 Wednesday August 24 Thursday August 25 Friday August 26 (maybe) Saturday August 27 (maybe) Sunday August 28 (maybe) Thursday September 1 Friday September 2 (maybe) Saturday September 3 (maybe) Sunday September 4 (maybe) My preference is definitely the day mcbigski mentioned (Thursday September 1), since its the closest to the start of the season. Please post here with a list of the days that will not work for you. @Dunknegg, @mcbigski, @Jaxom 1974, @boiled leather, @J.J.

Jace, Extat Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 I'll make it work, just give me enough heads-up to manipulate my work schedule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaxom 1974 Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 I'll make it work in most cases. 1st probably would be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mudguard Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 Right now, I think I'm OK with any of those dates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grozeng Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 8/27, 8/28, 9/2 and 9/3 do not work for me. I need after 9pm eastern. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whiskeyjack Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 Okay so we're down to these options. With Thursday September 1st as the heavy favorite. Monday August 22 Wednesday August 24 Thursday August 25 Friday August 26 (maybe) Thursday September 1 Sunday September 4 (maybe) Still need to hear from @Dunknegg @boiled leather @RaceBannon42 @JJ Lannister Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJ Lannister Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 I can't do the 22nd other then that, I'll make it work. The 1st would be preferable for me as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whiskeyjack Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Alright, lets tentatively plan on having this draft on Thursday September 1st. If Race or Dunk have a conflict, we can maybe revisit that date, but I think its the best option. If anybody is in contact with Race, can you reach out to him and ask him to check in?

Dunknegg Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Final cuts are Aug 30, waiver claims due on Aug 31, not sure when they are processed. First game at 8:20 EST on Sep 8. I’m definitely out from Aug 26-Aug 31 as I will be out of communication with the world…i.e. no cell or internet connectivity. If my flight on the afternoon of Sep 1st is not delayed or cancelled, a risky proposition lately with the forced retirement of pilots, I may be available after 9pm EST in time to wing it with no prep, but better than Auto-Jaxing. Honestly, any date between Aug 24-25 or Sep 2-7 works best for me, but I’ll go with what works for the most parties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcbigski Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 9:30 works on the 1st. 10 or 10:30 eastern is even better for me, might give DnE more time to get settled as well. Being that I have my book club starting at 7, will likely need to throw out my shiny new draft sober strategy and just run it classic style.

mcbigski Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 Commish moved a draft. Thursday sep 1 won't work. Labor day is now open. Got one more draft to nail down with the family league but will see about half the league by Monday and figure it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaxom 1974 Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 Ah. Almost forgot. Tuesday, September 6th is a no go for me on any draft in any league I'm in... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jace, Extat Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 Would the 24th be possible for Experts? I know it's early but there's only one more preseason game and I don't think it conflicts with anybody. Alternatively I offer the 4th or 5th, a Sunday and Monday respectively. Just trying to help gather momentum towards a consensus, not making demands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
