  • DRAFT AVAILABILITY THREAD

    It's customary in other leagues I'm in to have a thread like this, so that the draft thread can be kept for draft talk, pick evaluation, etc. This thread can be used for things like "I stocked my utility with 6 guys, but if they all get picked, I'll be back online around 9pm and make my selection shortly after then." Again, this is a courtesy. If there is going to be a delay, it's better that at least people know about it, rather than feeling like they have to keep checking in.

    (Mods, you probably shoudl sticky this)


    Columbus general availability:

    Utility is stocked with more players needed for my Round 1 pick.

    I'll be in and out today, but it sounds like we won't get anywhere near my next pick.

    MONDAY, TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY: Online from around 5am-4pm with a handful of times offline for short drive to the office (aroudn 6:30-6:45am), and 1pmish-2pmish workout. Of course, there will be times during the workday that I'll be in meetings or very busy and can't check in. However, those shouldn't last for more than an hour at a time. On and off availability in the evenings Mon and Tues. Wife leaves for a business trip on Wednesday, to I'll be wide open Wednesday and Thursday evening. I usually go to sleep around 9:30ish, and plan on using the utility for sleeptime.

    FRIDAY: Off work, wife out of town. Wide open pretty much all day.



    EDIT: When I'm available a lot like I am for this draft, I use the utility for a "short list" of players, and then look over them when it's time to make my pick. I'll probably make all of my awake-time picks manually like that. I just post that as an fyi, so my picks don't get made by the commish just because I have players in there and happen to be afk for a short time. I only put them in pick order before I go to sleep, or if I think I might be afk for more than an hour or so.

      Yuma availability- I work graveyard, so I'm usually on periodically throughout any given day. If I plan to be gone, I'll make sure I'm stocked and set on auto for at least one pick, and more if my picks are close together.

              I don't have that many picks, but I will make sure I am stocked when the time is near. If this thing is still going at the end of the week, I'm heading out of town with the wife. I'll make sure I am on AUTO PILOT

                I will auto pilot from time to time, but I will be in and out quite a bit. I'm off Monday so I'll be on a lot. When at work I have many opportunities to check in. In general, availability won't be an issue for me.

                    I don't pick until the fifth round now. So, I'll set my list, but I should be able to make my pick. My normal schedule is as follows: M-F 0730-1630, after that, I'm free. So, I'll check where we're at before work and set my list according to that.

                      I'll be leaving for work in a bit and won't be home until about 10 PM PST. Since I'm still about 25 picks away I can't really tell what will be there when I pick, but I do have a few guys in my queue.

                          I'm off to work. I'll be home around 7:30 CST. I'll put it on auto draft.

                            I traded down and want to be able to open the game before I pick at 3.29. That might not be until 5:30 or 6pm, but I'll see what I can do.

                            Just a head's up. It might not even be my turn by then.

                              I've got one guy left in my utility, and I'm 10 picks away. If it gets to me before 4:30 or so, there will be a short delay until I get home.
