Waco and Morgantown have selected. Charlotte is on the clock.


I like Morgantown's pick of LB Jon Segers.

FYI, the utility is doing something different this year....picking for teams that havent registered. We have two teams that havent registered Los Alamos and Memphis.

I'm not sure what to do here. Usually I will select for owners that miss there picks but usually thats for owners who have registered but either forgot or neglected to make a pick. These are usually owners who made a mistake and want to remain owners of the team. By picking for them based on what the game says the team's biggest need, It punishes the owner for missing his pick

In this case we have two owners, one who hasnt been on the site in almost a week and the other who hasnt been online in 2. There is a good chance that if they dont show up during the draft, I will look to replace them. So I dont want to punish the team by making what could be a bad pick and make a future owner pay for their mistakes. The flipside is I dont know what criteria the CPU is using to make selections.

So what do you think:

Should I continue to pick or should I let the CPU pick?

I say you pick, and try to find new owners. There's no excuse for ignoring the site for weeks at a time, especially during a busy time like this.

Other leagues I'm in let the CPU pick.

I would say you pick based off of biggest need, as usual, but if a team hasn't even registered, I don't think we should wait the four hours. The utility has been up for a week.

[Z]

If a team hasn't even logged onto SGN in a week, don't even bother waiting four hours.

Good pick by Yuma.

I was looking at that RB in the 2nd round.

That was Lake County's pick.

[aholbert]

That was Lake County's pick.

My bad.

[Bigsmooth]

Great pick of WR Nugent Jwolf. That was the guy I was hoping to trade up for at 25. Bummer.

[aholbert]

Z is on the clock.

[Z]

I'm shocked Patrick Loucks was still on the board. He was in my top five for the entire draft.

[path12]

1.28 is available.

EDIT: not anymore unless Waco wants to deal again.....

You should pick. If we are going to get replacement owners for those clubs, no reason to punish them with "cpu picks."
